Awesome Trip to Edfu
I booked an awesome tour with Mirna. The drive there and back was very comfortable and the tour guide was very knowledgeable about the temple of Edfu. And most importantly it was very affordable. 👍🏿

Amazing
My family and I went to the second largest temple in Egypt, which is the Edfu temple. The guide Ahmed was educated and explained to us about its size, the date of its construction and many other things. We took wonderful memorial photos. That was cool

Why this scores 62
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Trip from luxor to Edfu by train: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Luxor.
How much does Trip from luxor to Edfu by train cost?
+
Prices start at $38 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 Trip from luxor to Edfu by train take?
+
Plan for about 7 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 Trip from luxor to Edfu by train worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 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 Trip from luxor to Edfu by train?
+
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 Trip from luxor to Edfu by train suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Trip from luxor to Edfu by train?
+
Around 1 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 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Trip from luxor to Edfu by train 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 Luxor Tour Valley of Kings & Queens, Hatshepsut, Full Day Tour to East and West Banks of Luxor (Private), Private Half day Tour to West bank. 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.
What is included in Trip from luxor to Edfu by train?
+
Included: Train tickets go and return; Mineral water; Pick-up and return; and All taxes. Not included: Entrance fees for the temple; and Tipping. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Trip from luxor to Edfu by train include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 58 listed pickup locations in and around Luxor. Be ready about 15 minutes before the start time.
What languages is Trip from luxor to Edfu by train offered in?
+
It is offered in German, English, Italian, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Trip from luxor to Edfu by train?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is Trip from luxor to Edfu by train wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
