Location Map
Frequently Asked & Question
Most one-day West Bank tours cover the main highlights on the Nile’s west side. A standard route usually includes:
Valley of the Kings (entry to 3 open tombs with the basic ticket)
Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el-Bahari
Colossi of Memnon for a short photo stop
Many tours also add Medinet Habu, Valley of the Queens, or Ramesseum, either in the standard program or as an upgrade.
Some tombs, such as Tutankhamun, Seti I, and Ramses V & VI, need separate tickets. These are usually not in the base tour price, so you pay on site if you want to add them.
Ask for the full list of included sites before you book, so you know exactly where you’ll go.
Both work, it depends on your style and budget.
Private tour:
You get a flexible schedule, more time for questions, and the option to add or skip sites. This is best if you like a slower pace, want to focus on photography, or travel with kids or older travelers.
Group tour:
Costs less, but the timetable is fixed and you move at the group’s pace. This suits travelers who like meeting others or are happy to see the key highlights without many extras.
If your time is tight or you care a lot about in-depth guiding, a private tour usually feels more relaxed and efficient.
Expect moderate walking with some steps and slopes.
Valley of the Kings has gentle hills, ramps, and stairs into tombs.
Hatshepsut’s temple has wide terraces with ramps or stairs.
In summer, heat makes the effort feel stronger.
You don’t need to be an athlete, but you should be able to walk on uneven ground and climb short flights of stairs. If you have limited mobility, ask in advance about:
Air-conditioned vehicle access close to site entrances
Use of small site trains or golf carts where available
Which tombs have fewer steps and easier access
Good shoes and frequent water breaks make a big difference.
Dress for sun, heat, and respect for local culture.
Wear:
Light, breathable clothes that cover shoulders and knees
A hat or cap with a good brim
Comfortable closed shoes or sturdy sandals
Bring:
Plenty of water (or cash to buy it on site)
Sunscreen and sunglasses
Small backpack or bag
Tissues or wet wipes
Camera or phone with extra battery
Some tombs can be warm and a bit stuffy, so light clothing that still offers coverage is ideal.
The West Bank is one of Egypt’s most visited areas and is heavily monitored by tourism police. Main sites like the Valley of the Kings and Hatshepsut’s temple have visible security.
Common-sense tips still apply:
Keep valuables close and avoid flashing large sums of cash.
Agree on prices with vendors and carriage drivers before you say yes.
Stay with your guide at busy sites and follow posted rules.
Most visitors feel safe and welcome, especially when touring with a licensed guide or reputable company.
Tour companies in Luxor work with licensed Egyptologists or local guides approved by the Ministry of Tourism. These guides are trained in Egypt’s history and site rules.
Common guide languages include English, German, French, Spanish, and Italian. Other languages like Russian, Chinese, or Portuguese may be available on request.
If language matters a lot to you, confirm in writing which language your guide speaks before you pay.
Usually not. Most tours include:
West Bank transfers
Guide services
General entry to the Valley of the Kings (3 standard tombs)
Entry to Hatshepsut’s temple and other main temples, depending on the package
Premium tombs such as Tutankhamun, Seti I, and Ramses V & VI require extra tickets bought at the site ticket office. Prices for these add-ons change from time to time, so your guide can tell you the current rate on the day of the tour.
If you have a “must-see” tomb, mention it when booking so there is time in the schedule.
The most comfortable months are October to April, when days are cooler and the sun feels softer. From May to September, expect very hot afternoons.
Time of day matters too:
Early morning is the best, with lower heat and softer light for photos.
Midday is usually hottest and most crowded.
In winter, some visitors prefer late morning into early afternoon, when it warms up a bit.
If you dislike heat, ask for the earliest possible start and carry plenty of water.
Many full-day tours include lunch, often at a local restaurant on the West Bank or back on the East Bank. Some budget or half-day options skip lunch and give you free time to eat on your own.
Restrooms are available:
At major sites such as Valley of the Kings and Hatshepsut’s temple
At many ticket offices and restaurants
Carry small change for paid toilets, since some charge a small fee. Tissues or toilet paper in your bag are also a smart idea.
In most cases, yes, especially with a private tour.
Common custom options include:
Adding or swapping sites, like Medinet Habu or Valley of the Queens
Spending longer at the Valley of the Kings and skipping a shopping stop
Adding hot air ballooning at sunrise, which usually starts before the regular tour
Adjusting pick-up and drop-off points, like airport, train station, or Nile cruise
If you know your top priorities, share them before you confirm the booking so the route and timing can match your plans.
