Day trip to Luxor
The excursion to Luxor was a highlight of our vacation in Egypt. Mostafa was a very respectful and knowledgeable guide. He was born and raised in Luxor, therefore knows the city and the history like the palm of his hands. We saw all the highlights that can fit in one day and it was a very special experience. If you thinking of visiting Luxor, do not hesitate to book with Mostafa. You will not be disappointed. Thank you Mostafa for making our vacation so much better!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful words! It was a real pleasure showing you my hometown Luxor. I'm so happy to hear it was a highlight of your vacation. Hope to welcome you again soon!

Private tour with cultural highlights in Luxor with a lot of history of ancient Egypt.
We had a wonderful day in Luxor with fantastic impressions and the super friendly tour guide Mostafa. A boat trip on the Nile was not planned, but Mostafa made that possible for us spontaneously as well. He started telling stories immediately when we arrived in Luxor with the private transfer. He took beautiful photos of us at special spots with the sights. It was a wonderful day in Luxor with the sights and a lot of interesting history. He speaks German almost without an accent, so perfectly and fluently.
Response from the operator: Vielen lieben Dank für eure tolle Bewertung! Es war mir eine große Freude, euch Luxor zeigen zu dürfen. Ich hoffe, wir sehen uns bald wieder! Liebe Grüße, euer Mostafa 😊

Why this scores 67
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
VIP Private Day Trip from Hurghada to Luxor & Valley of the kings: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hurghada.
How much does VIP Private Day Trip from Hurghada to Luxor & Valley of the kings cost?
+
Prices start at €85 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Hurghada usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does VIP Private Day Trip from Hurghada to Luxor & Valley of the kings take?
+
Plan for about 13 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 Hurghada is not rushed.
Is VIP Private Day Trip from Hurghada to Luxor & Valley of the kings worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 11 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Hurghada, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule VIP Private Day Trip from Hurghada to Luxor & Valley of the kings?
+
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 VIP Private Day Trip from Hurghada to Luxor & Valley of the kings suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 13-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book VIP Private Day Trip from Hurghada to Luxor & Valley of the kings?
+
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 Hurghada 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 Hurghada and add a light layer if any part of the 13-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does VIP Private Day Trip from Hurghada to Luxor & Valley of the kings 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 Hurghada 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 Hurghada?
+
On Outty we rank every Hurghada experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Hurghada Diving Adventure one Day with two Dives Boat Trip, Hurghada to Cairo: Pyramids & Museum for First-Time Visitors, Hurghada Scuba Diving Full Day Boat Trip With Lunch & Transfer. 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 Hurghada?
+
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 Hurghada?
+
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.
