Additional Information

Luxor contains many of Egypt’s most standout attractions, but its long distance from Cairo makes it tricky to visit as a day trip. During this fast-paced, all-inclusive excursion, you’ll hop a domestic flight to cover the highlights of the southern city in a single day. Enjoy door-to-door transportation from your Cairo or Giza hotel and guided tours of millennia-year-old temples, plus a peek at the famous statue of Ramses the Great.

Made our Luxor trip extremely special and enjoyable - Our trip was not exactly an outsourced round trip from Cairo to Luxor. However all the tour arrangements were made by Roxana Travel once we landed in Luxor. Mohamed Hamzawy set an itinerary in Luxor that would work for us, based on our needs. And Ahmed Yousif was the tour guide individually assigned to us, to take us around Luxor. We stayed in Luxor for 4 nights and 3 full days, and here’s a gist of what we covered: Day 0: Pick up from Luxor airport to take us to our hotel Day 1: Karnak Temple and Luxor Temple Day 2: Valley of the Kings, Temple of Queen Hatshepsut Day 3: Hot air balloon ride during sunrise, Valley of the Queens, Colossi of Memnon, Temple of Medinet Habu, Valley of the Artisans Day 4: Temple of goddess Hathor at Dandara, followed by drop at Luxor airport to catch our flight to Cairo. Ahmed did an OUTSTANDING job of taking us through the tour of Luxor as well as Dandara. He also made us feel at ease (as it was our very first trip to Egypt), answered all our queries on getting around Luxor, and also gave very good tips on what to do and what to avoid. Mohamed did an equally OUTSTANDING job of creating a good itinerary for us and managing the details from start to finish. A BIG SHUKRAN to both of you for giving us such a great wonderful experience at Luxor!! I’ll gladly recommend their services again for anyone else interested in visiting Luxor.
