Before You Travel to Egypt
Everything you need to know before your trip — visas, seasons, and on-the-ground essentials.
Visit visa2egypt.gov.eg — a single-entry visa costs $25 USD. Processing takes 3–5 business days. Apply at least one week before your departure date.
Available at Cairo, Hurghada, Sharm El Sheikh, and Luxor airports. Cost: $25–30 USD cash — exact change preferred. Takes 10–20 minutes on arrival.
Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from your arrival date in Egypt, with at least one blank visa page available for the stamp.
Single-entry visa allows 30 days in Egypt. Need more flexibility? A multiple-entry e-visa valid for 60 days is available for $60 USD via the online portal.
The best time to visit Egypt is from October to April, when daytime temperatures in Cairo range between 18–26°C (64–79°F). December to February is peak season — book your tour at least 3–4 months in advance. May to September is extremely hot inland, but Red Sea resorts like Hurghada and Sharm El Sheikh remain enjoyable year-round.
US State Department Advisory: Level 2
Egypt is rated Level 2 — the same level assigned to France, Germany and Italy. Specific "Do Not Travel" zones are limited to Northern and Middle Sinai and certain parts of the Western Desert — neither of which features in any Misk Tours itinerary.

Luxor Tour Packages: how to plan your trip
Luxor is the largest open-air museum in the world: the ancient city of Thebes, with the temples of the living on the East Bank and the tombs of the pharaohs on the West.
What is included in a Luxor tour package?
Every Misk Tours Luxor package is completely private — your own Egyptologist guide, your own vehicle, your schedule. Packages include your hotel nights with breakfast, private air-conditioned transfers between the sites and entrance tickets to the core monuments on the itinerary. Premium tombs such as Tutankhamun, Seti I or Nefertari need a separate ticket and can be added on request.
East Bank and West Bank: how Luxor works
Luxor's major attractions are split across two sides of the Nile. The East Bank holds the Karnak Temple Complex and Luxor Temple; the West Bank holds the Valley of the Kings, the cliff-carved Temple of Hatshepsut and the Colossi of Memnon. Giving each bank its own day is the most comfortable way to see both without rushing.
Which Luxor package should you choose?
- 2 days from Hurghada ($200): both banks of Luxor with hotel pick-up and return on the Red Sea.
- 3 days in Luxor ($450): 2 nights in Luxor and time for both banks plus a felucca or balloon.
- Aswan & Abu Simbel from Luxor ($600): continue south to Aswan and the temples of Ramesses II.
- 3 days Luxor, Aswan & Abu Simbel ($620): Luxor, Edfu and Kom Ombo by road, Aswan and Abu Simbel.
Luxor package or Nile cruise?
A Luxor package keeps you on land in a hotel and is the quickest way to see the city. A Nile cruise between Luxor and Aswan covers the same sites plus Edfu and Kom Ombo, with all meals on board. You can also combine Luxor with Cairo and the Pyramids in our Egypt tour packages.
Best time to visit Luxor
The best time to visit Luxor is from October to April, when daytime temperatures range from 20°C to 30°C (68°F to 86°F). From May to September, summer temperatures regularly exceed 40°C (104°F), so sightseeing starts early in the morning.
FAQs — What People Ask
Still have questions? We're here to help! Our travel experts are just a click away.
Ask A Travel ExpertWhat is typically included in a Luxor tour package?
Most standard day-trip packages include round-trip transport (via air-conditioned minivan, bus, or domestic flight), a certified Egyptologist guide, lunch, and entry tickets to core sites. Premium packages or multi-day Nile cruise packages usually add 5-star hotel stays, all meals, and optional excursions like a sunrise hot air balloon ride.
How many days do you need for a Luxor tour?
2 to 3 days is the ideal timeframe to comfortably explore Luxor without rushing. This allows you to split your time cleanly: one full day for the West Bank (Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut Temple, Colossi of Memnon) and one day for the East Bank (Karnak and Luxor Temples), leaving room for a Nile felucca sail or a morning balloon flight. While 1-day trips from Hurghada or Cairo are popular, they involve 5 to 10 hours of travel time.
Is it better to book a Luxor tour package or travel independently?
For most travelers, booking a package or hiring a private guide/driver is highly recommended. Luxor's major attractions are split across two sides of the Nile River, and navigating local taxis can involve aggressive haggling. A tour package streamlines your logistics, provides air-conditioned transport between sites, and includes an Egyptologist to explain the complex hieroglyphics and history.
What is the best month to book a Luxor tour?
The best time to visit Luxor is from October to April. During these cooler winter months, daytime temperatures range from a pleasant 20°C to 30°C (68°F to 86°F), making walking through unshaded ancient stone temples comfortable. From May to September, summer temperatures regularly exceed 40°C (104°F), making midday sightseeing exhausting.
Do Luxor tour packages include entry to King Tut’s tomb?
Generally, no. A standard Valley of the Kings entry ticket, included in most packages, grants you access to 3 general royal tombs. Premium or specialized tombs—such as Tutankhamun, Seti I, or Nefertari (in the Valley of the Queens)—require an additional, separate ticket. You can usually ask your tour operator to add these to your package for an extra fee, or purchase them directly at the gate.
How much does a Luxor tour package cost?
Misk Tours Luxor packages start from $200 per person for 2 days from Hurghada, $450 for 3 days in Luxor, $600 for Aswan and Abu Simbel from Luxor and $620 for 3 days covering Luxor, Aswan and Abu Simbel. Prices depend on hotel category, season and group size.
