How up to date?

The cost of entry to Luxor's tombs, temples, museums and other sights has increased quite substantially in the last few years. They may continue to increase.

We keep this page as up to date as we can. The charges take into account the increases implemented in the autumn of 2008 and January 2009 and were still current in October 2009. Please let us know through the contact form if you know of any other changes, or if there are other prices that should be in the list but we have not yet included.

The entry fees are much cheaper for Egyptian nationals. The charges listed are the standard entry fees for non-Egyptian adults. The charges are all per person in Egyptian Pounds.

Children, young people and students

Children. The official line is that entrance tickets and transport in Luxor are free for children up to the age of six. We are not aware of anyone being charged for entry to any of the sights, including the tombs and the National ferry, for any child who is, or looks, six or younger. There is no need to mention the younger children. It is taken for granted that they do not pay. Just go to the ticket office, buy tickets for the adults and older children and don't mention the younger ones unless they do. A lot seems to be down to the official when assessing ages.

Young people and students. Officially, young people between 7 and 12 (inclusive) pay a reduced rate which is around half the adult price but rounded up to the nearest LE5. Young people who look 13 or more will need an international student card to get the reduced student rate. The young person's school or college should be able to help with this, but if not an application can be made online at www.isic.org. We understand that you can also get ISIC cards at an office in Sharia Ahmed Orabi if you don't get one before you go. You have to show passports. Take a passport photo too. National student cards are not usually recognised.
