It was fun today. We started moving early in the morning along with the hot air balloon, so we were quite tired, but the connected tours made it easy to get around.

Watching the hot air balloons at sunrise is as beautiful as a painting, well worth the price. Everyone should definitely try this experience in Luxor; you'll regret it if you miss out.

We had an amazing experience on the 2-Day Luxor East and West Bank Private Tour with Transfers. Mohamed was an excellent guide — very knowledgeable, friendly, and professional throughout the entire trip. He made sure we saw all the major sites without feeling rushed and explained the history in a very engaging way. Everything was perfectly organized and punctual from start to finish. The private transportation was very comfortable, and having a private car made the experience relaxing and enjoyable, especially in the Luxor heat. The lunch provided was also delicious and exceeded our expectations. We truly appreciated the attention to detail and the care taken to make sure we had a great experience. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Luxor and especially recommend Mohamed for making the trip so memorable!

The itinerary was very well organized. The driver was polite, drove safely, and kept the vehicle clean and comfortable throughout the journey. Our guide, Mohammed, was professional, friendly, and considerate. He made it easy for us to understand local culture and customs, allowing us to focus on enjoying the historical sites without worrying about logistics. His knowledge of ancient Egyptian history was impressive, and his clear explanations brought the Valley of the Kings, the Temple of Hatshepsut, and the Colossi of Memnon to life. What seemed like ancient ruins became fascinating stories that deepened our appreciation of Egypt’s remarkable civilization. The lunch was also excellent. We highly recommend Black Camel Tours and would gladly choose them again on a future visit to Egypt. Thank you for a safe, enjoyable, and memorable experience.

Booked 3 days before arriving in Luxor. A practical and convenient way to explore the West Bank! They picked us up at 5 AM sharp and followed the itinerary as planned. One thing I wasn’t too happy about was the unexpected stop at a random shop for a “welcome drink.” I couldn’t help wondering if it was a commission-based stop to encourage tourists to buy marble, glassware or souvenirs, especially since it wasn’t part of the original itinerary. 🤔 Entrance tickets to the Valley of the Kings and Hatshepsut Temple are not included, so you’ll need to pay for those separately. I really liked the Egyptologist, though! He was very knowledgeable and explained the history well. The transportation was clean and comfortable, too. However, I wasn’t quite sure why we were expected to tip the driver extra on top of what we had already paid.

Abdul was amazing! He did a great job showing us around, explaining the history, and making the whole experience enjoyable. Even though it was extremely warm, he stayed professional, helpful, and full of energy throughout the day. I really hope guides like him are paid well for the hard work they do, especially in such hot conditions. Highly recommended if you’re visiting Luxor!

I stayed for 3 days and 2 nights because of my schedule, but if time had permitted, I would have extended it to 4 days and 3 nights to visit Abu Simbel as well. Going on tours during the day and then lying back on the rooftop from around lunchtime, tanning, drinking beverages, and enjoying the view is simply the best. Even if you aren't fluent in English, the dedicated staff member takes care of you constantly via WhatsApp (this was the absolute best part; they reached out to me first every single day from the day before boarding until the end, asking if anything was uncomfortable and resolving any issues immediately). The guide might be hit or miss, but I was extremely satisfied.

What to know before visiting Luxor

What to do in Luxor throughout the year

Luxor is best known for guided Tours, with Water activities and Cruises trailing behind in booking volume. Klook booking data shows Tours dominate most of the year, while Water activities and Cruises attract smaller, more specialised interest. Demand cycles strongly: January is a peak month while summer months such as June are much quieter. Use this rhythm to plan — decide whether you want lively peak-season atmosphere or a calmer experience, and book accordingly. Klook booking data underpins these patterns and helps you pick the right time.

When to visit Luxor and what to expect

The busiest month by bookings is January, when demand is highest, while June, February and April are among the quietest. Prices drift through the year with the priciest median on Klook in January and the lowest median in September; in some months high demand and high prices align, while in others quieter months bring lower typical prices. For lower prices and smaller crowds aim for September or other quieter months; for peak-season atmosphere choose January. Klook booking data informs both demand and price signals.

Month Demand Level Typical Price
January Peak demand USD 131
February Very quiet USD 70
March Busier than usual USD 58
April Very quiet USD 72
May Quieter than usual USD 61
June Very quiet USD 61
July Busier than usual USD 39
August Peak demand USD 40
September Peak demand USD 31
October Busier than usual USD 81
November Quieter than usual USD 79
December Quieter than usual USD 69

Demand is bookings in that month compared with a typical month, from historical Klook booking data, grouped into the demand levels above; typical price is the median paid on Klook in that month; prices are shown with their currency code. Based on Klook booking data, July 2025 – June 2026.

Tips for travellers from the United States

Most travellers book relatively close to departure: on average bookings lock in about 6 days ahead, while the earliest planners book around 19 days out. That means you can be flexible and often book a day or two before travel, but during January and other peak months it pays to book earlier. Use Klook to compare typical prices and secure Tours or Cruises in advance if you want specific dates or guides. Booking on Klook is straightforward, lets you lock in popular time slots, and keeps your options open while planning.
