Transportation in Luxor

Car with driver

When you have some days to visit Luxor, its better to have your own car with driver. Like this, you can have exactly the time that you want in each place. And you will not have the stress to drive in Egypt.

 
All taxis will offer to remain at your service all day, then you have to negotiate the price!

For my part, I propose to define with you visits you want to include in your schedule, I can help you arrange them in the day according to your constraints (other activities, participants, season ...) and I put in you with a serious driver, careful, professional with a recent vehicle, comfortable and well conditioned.

So you will be picked up at your hotel, expected the end of each visit, advised to choose a restaurant, a shop, and escorted to your hotel at the end of service.

You can leave in the vehicle throughout the day, your bags, miscellaneous purchases, drinks (in the cooler refrigered available to you), when cameras are prohibited from entering the sites without any fear.

With caleche

The caleche is an original and green way to travel on the east bank of Luxor. Moving from the ferry to the temple of Karnak, the museum, downtown, the coach will replace pleasantly taxi or car. Again, it will prepare you to negotiate the price of travel and the price of a possible wait if you want to go back with the same vehicle.

With bike

It is possible to visit the west bank of Luxor by bike. Feasible in winter and if you have a good physical, as sites like the Valley of the Kings and Queens are at the bottom of the Theban hills. You will have to be careful on the road with many buses, taxis and other vehicles driving on small winding roads that lead to archaeological sites.

Coming in and out Luxor

By train

By car with driver

To join Cairo in the north or Aswan in the south, you can use the train that runs through the valley of the Nile .. the day you will discover the diverse landscape of the banks of the Nile, mountains, desert areas, towns and villages nestled at the water's edge. If you choose the night train you can either enjoy a sleeper cabin for 2 or settle for a good seat in first class.

I organize all transfers from Luxor train station to the city and to other cities of Egypt.

Rent a car without a driver in Egypt is risky, the Egyptians are not aware of road risk, accident-prone factors in road safety. The marking of roads, road signs are rare once you leave the main roads in big cities. Vehicles can be very old, have few safety features and can be very bad. I suggest you use the services of a professional driver as the vehicle is controlled, and ability to travel in Egypt is maximum.

By plane

Luxor has an international airport. The TRANSAVIA company offers low cost direct flights from Paris Orly. EGYPTAIR flies with the cities of Cairo and Aswan.

I organize all transfers from the airport to the city of Luxor and to other cities of Egypt.

By bus

It is possible to reach Cairo or Aswan by bus, but it really is best to use the train for the journey. There are some links by bus to Hurghada. Journey times by bus are often very long, the buses are not modern, on-time random ...
