Ancient Luxor small-group day tour from Hurghada

4.5/5
265 reviews

This tour is your key to unlocking Egyptian history – and unveiling the eternal story of ancient Luxor, described as one of the world’s greatest open-air museums. The ancient Egyptians built their great monuments based on meticulous engineering and mathematics.

On this semi-private tour for small groups of up to 8 pax, you will experience Luxor’s top treasures including Karnak Temple, the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut Temple plus the giant Colossi of Memnon – all of which you’ll explore in just one day, including a delicious set menu lunch at a 5-star hotel to meet your expectations.

Setting off from Hurghada City and surroundings in Makdai Bay, Soma Bay, Sahl Hashish, El Gouna, Safaga and Kalawy Bay in the early morning through the Red Sea Mountains to Luxor, you’ll stop for breakfast before delving into your first sight – the impressive Karnak Temple, a sprawling complex of towering temples. Next, you’ll have a set menu lunch before heading to the Valley of the Kings by motorboat across the Nile. You’ll get to enter three of its 63 royal tombs. Then, take in the ancient Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut, and the staggering Colossi of Memnon. Expect a jam-packed day of temples, tombs, and monuments that sweep you through thousands of years of history.

    Excellent communication throughout. Drivers and guide were very good. Well organised however lunch was a bit rushed. Didn’t see the point of the stop at the Alabaster factory which was a bit of a hard sell. Loved the Egyptian cultural visits to the 3 sites. Wondered why the Tutankhamen tomb was not included in price. Overall apart from a tiring early start and long drive there and back this was an excellent experience.

    Oppaamme retkellä oli mahtava! Ajotyyli Egyptissä on pelottava, mutta taitaa kuulua kulttuuriin.

    Päivä Luxorissa oli todellakin hintansa arvoinen. Hienosti järjestetty. Opas nimeltään Momen oli todella asiantunteva, innostunut ja ystävällinen. Myös kaikki liikkuminen ja kulkeminen oli turvallista. Ylitti kaikki odotuksemme. Aikainen aamuherääminen kannatti.

    Fijn de tips van de gids hoe om te gaan met lokale verkopers van souvenirs, fotohulp, etc. Engels was goed te verstaan en te begrijpen. Fijne kleine groep.

    We werden om 3.30 opgehaald met een taxi, naar een punt waarbij we met een busje verder gingen. Die tijden sloten helemaal niet aan, waardoor we een uur verspilden (ik had graag een uur langer in bed doorgebracht…). De chauffeurs waren allemaal bekwaam en vriendelijk. Er wordt wel erg hard gereden. De gids wist veel en was erg aardig en behulpzaam, maar voor mij niet altijd goed te volgen. Je loopt over de koppen bij de bezienswaardigheden, maar zeker de moeite waard om gezien te hebben.
