Very informative tour with...
Very informative tour with a competent tour guide named Barry. Unfortunately, my tour was in English and not in German as booked with Viator, was not a problem for me, but could be relevant for others. Departure at the hotel at 7 am. The day before I got more detailed information about the excursion via WhatsApp directly from the guide. I felt very well taken care of as a solo traveler. The destinations are also rather little visited, we were alone at all the facilities.

Brilliant
We had a fantastic day exploring some of the lesser visited tombs and temples. Although not as famous the colours and history were breathtaking. The Valley of the Queens, Nobles and Ramesseum were excellent. Barry was an exceptional guide. His English was great but his knowledge, stories and sense of humour made for an enjoyable and fun day. Ahmed the driver was an extremely capable driver and picked us up on time and kept us safe. As a private tour we had flexibility. We started at 8.30am and were back by 1pm. This was our favourite tour of the trip. We were so happy that we booked another trip the next day and again we were delighted with the day. I can’t recommend it highly enough. There is a lot to see in Luxor and it’s well worth sending some extra time to see some of the lesser known places but without the crowds. Thank you Barry and Ahmed. We will go home with very pleasant memories.

Awesome
Small tour far from the most touristic place with great temples and the tumbs of the Valley of the queen were really beautiful and colorfull.

Good tour on the west bank of Luxor.
Good tour and Raymon was a friendly and knowledgeable tour guide. We visited three sites including the Ramesseum, Howard Carter’s house and the valley of the queens. All of the sites were very quiet so had the place to ourselves which was a bonus. The tour lasted about 3 hours including the travel time to and from the hotel, and we had a good driver for the trip.

Expensive tour but with a brilliant guide
We had a tour of the Valley of the Queens, Ramesseum, Temple of Seti I and Howard Carter’s House. These sites are not very popular and there were very few tourists there - so that was enjoyable. The car provided was new and comfortable and the driver Youssuf was good. The best part was our guide Waleed - a trained Egyptologist who truly knew the history, the meaning of hieroglyphics and wholeheartedly enjoyed to explain the details of various sites. We had a wonderful time thanks to Waleed!

Private Tour: valley of the queens,Carter House,Temple of Seti, Ramesseum Temple: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Luxor.
How much does Private Tour: valley of the queens,Carter House,Temple of Seti, Ramesseum Temple cost?
+
Prices start at $100 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Luxor usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Tour: valley of the queens,Carter House,Temple of Seti, Ramesseum Temple take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Luxor is not rushed.
Is Private Tour: valley of the queens,Carter House,Temple of Seti, Ramesseum Temple worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 10 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Luxor, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Tour: valley of the queens,Carter House,Temple of Seti, Ramesseum Temple?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Tour: valley of the queens,Carter House,Temple of Seti, Ramesseum Temple suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Tour: valley of the queens,Carter House,Temple of Seti, Ramesseum Temple?
+
Around 4 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Luxor can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Luxor and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Tour: valley of the queens,Carter House,Temple of Seti, Ramesseum Temple start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Luxor within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Luxor?
+
On Outty we rank every Luxor experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Private Half day Tour to West bank, Private Half Day Luxor Tour Valley of Kings & Queens, Hatshepsut, Full Day Tour of Luxor private. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Luxor?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Luxor?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
