Private Day Trip to Luxor from Marsa Alam and Valley of the Kings

This trip is highly recommended! A private driver and private guide for our family, fine and luxurious so you can personalize trip. There really is time to ask questions and get answers. The guide could tell and explain well.

We were picked up in time by the taxi and the driver even provided cold drinks. In Luxor, Professor Akhmed joined a he immediately began to tell enthusiastically. He knew a lot and brought it in a nice way. We had a very nice day trip and had a nice dinner. This private trip is highly recommended.

Perfect organization. A special thanks to Maddalena, who guided us on a fantastic journey, captivating us with her professionalism and deep knowledge of the history of the ancient Egyptians. We could not have hoped for better, strongly recommended.

My husband and I had an absolutely incredible excursion to Luxor, and it was entirely thanks to our wonderful guide, Professor Ahmed Elsisi. From start to finish, Professor Ahmed was attentive to our every need, going above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable, happy, and having the best day possible. Not only is he deeply knowledgeable—giving us what felt like a fascinating, personalized history class on ancient Egypt—but he is also a fantastic photographer! He captured so many beautiful photos of our day that we will cherish forever. If you are planning a trip to Luxor and want a guide who is professional, deeply academic, caring, and attentive, we cannot recommend Professor Ahmed highly enough. He truly made this one of the best days of our travels!

Our tour guide Osama Mohawes was very knowledgeable, friendly, and explained everything in excellent German. The pickup at the hotel was punctual, and the entire trip was very well organized. Despite the long transfer, the tour was absolutely worth it. The selected destinations were very worth seeing and offered interesting choices. Clear recommendation!

We could not have wished for a better guide than Maddalena. She transformed our day in Luxor into a journey through history: clear explanations, fascinating anecdotes, and great professionalism. From the Valley of the Kings to the Temple of Karnak to the felucca on the Nile, everything was perfect. We felt welcomed, supported, and enriched. An extraordinary guide and a wonderful person.

It was truly an absolutely impressive trip. Admittedly, it was very exhausting and lasted a total of 20 hours. But it was worth it. The driver Faris safely took us to Luxor and back. Our guide Mark (with a K) was particularly impressive. ;-) It's amazing how much knowledge he has. He made the trip very entertaining for us. We learned a lot, and Mark passionately addressed our questions. Great person! Absolute recommendation also as a private trip.

Everything went perfectly, pickup at the hotel and drive to Luxor, where we were welcomed by our tour guide Osama M. He told us everything important, and it was never boring. Our son (3 years old) was also with us, and he participated in everything as well. It was a hot but interesting day; Osama organized the trip on the Nile to Banana Island for a small extra fee, allowing us to catch our breath, and our son could see the animals on Banana Island. We would definitely do the trip again.

We had a wonderful day with our amazing guide Sabri, who was helpful and attentive, and explained everything very well in great detail. We were dazzled by the sights as well as a lot of historical and cultural information. This private excursion to Luxor is not to be missed; I highly recommend it.

My partner and I are from Germany and booked our Luxor day trip from the Steigenberger Aldau Hotel, where Mark (Egyptologist) and our driver George were recommended, and it was absolutely the right choice. Our driver picked us up at 5:30 AM at the hotel. The 3.5-hour drive was long, but definitely worth it. We returned around 7 PM after a full and unforgettable day. Mark was a very kind, professional and knowledgeable guide. His German was really good, and he explained everything in a clear and engaging way. He always made sure we stood in the shade during explanations, which we really appreciated in the heat. He also organized everything for us: from the day tickets to the entire schedule, so we didn’t have to worry about anything. That made the experience very relaxed. We also felt completely safe with him at all times. We started at Karnak Temple, then continued to the Valley of the Kings. Mark recommended three tombs – and we’re so glad we trusted him. The tomb of Ramses IV was especially beautiful. We also visited Tutankhamun’s tomb (extra ticket), which was absolutely worth it for us. It was very special to see his mummy in real life. At the end of the day, we visited the impressive Hatshepsut Temple, which was the perfect final stop. What we liked most was that Mark gave great tips (also about tourist scams) and offered additional options without ever being pushy, we could decide everything freely. We never felt rushed and had enough time to enjoy everything at our own pace. At the end, he organized lunch, and we even ate together with him, which made the experience feel even more personal and pleasant. It was a wonderful day full of history and impressions that you really need time to process afterwards. Overall, a perfectly organized trip – Luxor is a must-see, and with Mark, it becomes something truly special. Thank you for this amazing day! 🌞 Greetings from Germany
