Quick answer: Luxor East Bank Half-Day Private Tour lasts 4 hours in Luxor, from $95.00 per person, with a licensed guide and hotel pick-up.
Overview
Spend a relaxed half day on Luxor's East Bank, home to two of Egypt's greatest temples. With a private guide you can see the carved columns, the avenue of sphinxes and the towering obelisks at your own speed.
The monuments span nearly two thousand years of history, from the Middle Kingdom to the Ptolemaic era, and your Egyptologist explains how each ruler added to them.
Pick-up and drop-off are from your hotel, train station, airport or Nile cruise on the East Bank. Entrance fees, bottled water, service charges and taxes are included.
The tour suits all ages. The price per person depends on group size and children pay less: see Prices by group size below.
