The Best Private Tour Guide in Luxor!

Aly was a guide of guides! Everyone seemed to know him, and he was incredibly knowledgeable about Egyptian history and culture. He was full of energy and enthusiasm, even for an introvert like me! 😆 I enjoyed my private tour with a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle and a kind driver. Highly recommended!

Luxor Day Tour visit East and West Nile Banks

ThaoAnh_N, Nov 2026

Comfortable trip

I booked the driver-only tour because I had limited time in Luxor. At first, I was a little worried about travelling alone as a female traveller, but I was very lucky to have Mohamad as my driver. The whole trip was very comfortable. His car was new, clean and Mohamad was friendly and respectful throughout the day. I especially appreciated that there was no pressure to buy anything or pay extra, which was quite different from some of my experiences in Cairo... I felt safe and relaxed during the entire trip and could enjoy the places at my own pace. At the end of the tour, Mohamad even gave me a small scarab as a gift, saying because I had been a very nice guest. It was such a sweet and unexpected gesture and a lovely way to end my day in Luxor. Thank you, Mohamad, for making my solo trip so comfortable and enjoyable. I would definitely recommend him, especially to other solo travellers.

We had an amazing experience and highly recommend this tour! The trip to Abu Simbel was comfortable, smooth, and safe. Our driver, Hany, was great, already waiting for us when we arrived at Aswan Airport at 7:30 am. The car was comfortable, with snacks and bottled water provided. A special thanks to both Hany, our driver, and Hany tour guide at the temples. They were both friendly and professional and made the experience even better. Abu Simbel is a must-see!

Full Day Tour to East and West Banks of Luxor

harpreetthandi, Oct 2026

An amazing tour in Luxor

We had an amazing day with Ashraf and Islam. Ashraf is a very knowledgeable guide and was super friendly and engaging right from the start, which can be difficult with a 12 year old and 15 year old. He had some great stories to tell while we walked around the sites and gave us clear instructions on where to meet him after we had a little free time to walk around and take photos. Unfortunately, we had to cut our tour short as I wasn’t feeling well due to sunstroke, so we missed out on the final site and lunch, but I’d highly recommend this tour and Ashraf as a guide.

Luxor Sunrise Hot Air Balloon Ride with Hotel Pickup

An unforgettable experience in the Valley of the Kings

One of the most incredible experiences I've ever had! Taking a hot air balloon ride in Luxor, Egypt, was simply unforgettable. Seeing the sunrise while flying over that historic landscape and observing the Valley of the Kings from a completely different perspective was something difficult even to put into words. The feeling of flying over a region so important to human history makes the tour even more special. It is an experience that mixes adventure, tranquility, and history in a unique way. For those visiting Luxor, I consider the hot air balloon ride an unmissable experience. It was one of those moments that are kept forever in memory. I highly recommend it!

Nile cruise from Luxor to Aswan for 3 nights includes tours

Ricardo_O, May 2026

Awesome

Amazing cruise. Great support from Mona Rahin throughout the whole trip. Our personal guide, Ahmed, was also incredible. Boat is very comfortable, great room and spacius bathroom. Food is great. I highly recommend this tour. All tours are included, except the balloon ride(highly recommended) and the Abu Simbel tour(I could not do it due to my return flight time). One small recommendation for the boat is to have more shaded areas on top, as it was extremely hot in May. But minor inconvenience, not to discourage taking this trip.

Everything Luxor In One Day

I will share information with you that I not already listed under the tour information. - Expect a FULL day. We were picked up at 4AM and dropped off at 6PM. - The hot air balloon ride is highly dependent on near perfect conditions. Be mentally prepared if it doesn't work out. - A photo and video service during the balloon will be offered for an additional 25€ (the quality of pictures taken were great) - After the hot air balloon ride, we're surprised to continue with a private tour (with the famous Dr. Mo) - At the valley of the kings, although the ticket allows 3 tombs we only had time to see 2. - For Dr. Mo to tell us the story of King Tut, it was an additional $30USD/person. I didn't feel it was worth it. You can read the information off the informational board. - The place you will be brought for lunch is a tourist trap, about $20USD per person. - The tour brought us to hands on experiences- Alabaster Store, Perfume, and Papyrus. It was very cool, but every place we went I felt obligated to buy something, hopefully you can have better will power than me! Don't be afraid to negotiate!!! It was be better to split all the things we saw between 2-3 days. But if you only have one day like us, this is a great tour!

Nelly the best tour guide. Excellent tour

What a great tour, it was worth seeing. Valley of the Kings is an experience you will never forget, and the Temples is like a movie set you just can believe your eyes. We had an amazing tour guide Nelly and she was very insightful, knowledgeable and enthusiastic, we learnt so much about the sights and learn to read hieroglyphics and write of ages using this method. Great 2 half days. Thank you

Private Tour to Valley of the Queens, Valley of the Artisans, and Habu Temple

joandbryan, Feb 2026

Recommended half day trip

Great half day excursion. With the newer road only takes about 4 hours. Hassan was a good guide. All three places were very worthwhile with well preserved and colourful carvings, especially at the artisans village where they were so complete and quite unique.
