Incredible trip to Luxor in just one day. We were picked from our hotel and dropped at the train station by our driver, Islam. Note that its not easy to buy tickets online, and all communication at the stations is in Arabic. The very next morning, our guide Marian came to meet us at the station in Luxor and began the whirlwind tour of the day. Our first stop was Valley of the Kings where Marian gave us a helpful tour of the tombs to see with interesting histories associated with them. She suggested Seti tomb which cost a premium fee of 2000 EGP as opposed to the others at about 700 EGP. Good s

To Luxor, the train had ripped and dirty carpet. To Cairo, the train was much newer and it made a massive difference. But the attendants were super nice and friendly.

We asked the operator via WhatsApp if this can be accomodated for and they said us at an additional fee which was fine as we didn’t want the single to bunk with a stranger. The driver was fun and personable. - En route: Sleeper train can be a bit dated but there are cabins and carriages that are in better condit
