Frequently Asked Questions

01 How long is the drive from Port Ghalib to Luxor?

From Port Ghalib you'll travel north to Safaga, then inland via Qena to Luxor. It's a scenic drive of a few hours each way, so the day starts early, with your private air-conditioned vehicle keeping it comfortable.

02 What will I see on this Luxor day trip?

You'll explore the Valley of the Kings, the Temple of Hatshepsut, the Colossi of Memnon, and the Karnak Temple Complex, with lunch at a local restaurant and time at Luxor's central market. An optional Banana Island Nile cruise can be added.

03 What's included in the $120 price?

The $120 per person price is all-inclusive: it covers your entrance fees to the sites in the program, lunch at a local restaurant, your Egyptologist guide, and air-conditioned group transport from Port Ghalib and back. The only optional extra is the 45-minute Banana Island Nile cruise.

04 Is this a shared or private tour?

This is a shared small-group tour, which is what makes the $120 all-inclusive price possible. If you'd prefer your own vehicle and a fully flexible pace, we also offer a private version of this Luxor day trip from Port Ghalib.

05 Are entrance fees really included?

Yes. Unlike many day trips, entrance fees to the sites in the program are included in the $120 price, so there are no surprise costs at the gate. Only the optional Nile cruise and personal extras are paid separately. Note that a few special sites, such as the Tomb of Tutankhamun, may require an extra ticket.

06 Do children get a discount?

Yes. Children aged 6 to 10 receive up to 40% off the trip price. Special rates are also available for residents and larger groups — just let us know your group's details when booking. The minimum group size for a booking is 2 people.

07 Is lunch included?

Yes. An Oriental open-buffet lunch at a local restaurant is included, along with water and soft drinks throughout the tour. You may still like to carry a little cash for extras at the market.

08 What is the Banana Island cruise?

It's an optional, relaxing 45-minute cruise on the Nile to Banana Island, where you can enjoy scenic river views and the island's lush banana plantations. It's available at an additional cost, paid on the day, on both our private and shared trips.

09 What time do we get back to Port Ghalib?

This is a full-day trip with an early start. After the market visit you'll drive back to Port Ghalib, arriving in the evening. Exact timing depends on the day and the road, so if you have plans that night, allow a comfortable buffer.

10 Is the day tiring?

It's a long day with an early start and a scenic drive via Safaga and Qena, but it's well-paced — the cooler West Bank sites first, a proper lunch, then Karnak and the market — and the vehicle lets you rest on the journey there and back.

11 Is it suitable for children and families?

Yes. The comfortable vehicle makes the drive easier for children, and the mix of tombs, giant statues, temples, and a lively market keeps the day varied and engaging. Do note the early start and the overall length.

12 When is the best time to take this trip?

Luxor is spectacular year-round. October to April brings the most comfortable temperatures for sightseeing, while summer trips start early to make the most of the cooler morning hours.

13 What is the cancellation policy?

Free cancellation applies up to the deadline shown on this trip's booking page; after that, the booking is non-refundable. Please check the exact date at checkout.
