Frequently Asked Questions

Why Choose Our Tour

If you're looking to tour Luxor at its best with friends in one day, here are the reasons why we're a better choice: Multilingual Egyptologist guide available in English, German, Russian, French or Dutch. Instead of a Hurghada - Luxor bus full of tourists and hitting it in the head, small minivans with an air conditioning system can carry no more than 8 guests, enabling them to give you much more attention. The full Luxor day trip from Hurghada costs inclusive of entrance tickets, buffet lunch and hotel transfers, so there are no additional charges at the tour gate. Pickup and drop-off in your hotel in Hurghada from door to door without buttons being pushed.

Is it worth doing a day trip to Luxor from Hurghada?

Yes, particularly if you don't have much time for vacation. This day trip includes an introduction to Karnak Temple, the Valley of the Kings, the Temple of Hatshepsut, and the Colossi of Memnon, all with a licensed guide. Consider a 2-day trip with one night's accommodation if you're looking to take things slower.

How long is a day trip from Hurghada to Luxor?

A long day, but it's not too long! Pick up at the hotel is early in the morning and takes about 4 to 4.5 hours each way, but the guests are at the hotel by late evening.

Is Luxor better than Hurghada?

They are designed for different types of trips and do not have to be "better" for one type of trip. Most tourists prefer to combine both destinations, Hurghada is a place about beaches, diving and the Red Sea, and Luxor is a place of temples, tombs and ancient history.

Is it safe to walk around in Luxor?

Yes, Luxor's major tourist centers are highly secure and safe for pedestrians and the city relies heavily on tourism. The biggest problems are pushy taxis or excessively high taxi and carriage fares, but safety is not an issue as long as you negotiate prices ahead of time and also keep around very busy key areas.
