It was a great experience and guide was explaining properly and had a great time. I guess it is really depends on the group, however I started from 7 am and finished at 13:30pm, so if you are thinking to go back to Cairo early you may want to start early.

Before getting to the actual excursion itself, Aymer our guide was fantastic! Very knowledgeable in the areas. We were staying in Cairo, and did a day trip via plane that same day. The tour provider was very communicative from start (430am) to finish (1230am). The driver was safe and very courteous.
The Luxor and Karnak temples along with the Temple of Hatshepsut offer visitors the chance to stand in the incredibly preserved vestiges of Ancient Egypt's greatness, an experience beyond words.
Luxor Temple instantly captivates any visitor with its colossal statues and intricately carved obelisks. Once you step inside, the array of sphinxes, monument-filled courtyards, and sanctuaries leave you startled by their superb engineering and architectural splendor. These awe-inspiring structures echo tales of yesteryears, magnifying the mystique of this fascinating civilization.
Just a short distance away, the allure of the Karnak Temple complex awaits. Karnak, being the second largest ancient religious site in the world, is a stunning testimony to the Ancient Egyptians' architectural prowess. Exploring each corner feels like unraveling mesmerizing chapters of aesthetics, spirituality, and grandeur from a time far gone. The Great Hypostyle Hall covered with intricate hieroglyphs simply leaves you spellbound.
The Temple of Hatshepsut, carved into a cliff face, is a spectacle in and of itself. Celebrating one of the few female pharaohs of Ancient Egypt, it is an architectural marvel that combines solemn grandeur with an immense sense of mystery.
However, a word of caution - the Egyptian sun can be relentlessly hot, especially during the peak hours of the day. It's advisable to carry plenty of water, sunscreen, and perhaps a hat or umbrella to help combat the heat.
Resilient in the face of time, these ancient structures serve as magnificent reminders of a time when human ambition combined with architectural genius dominated the landscape. A visit to Luxor, Karnak, and the Temple of Hatshepsut is an absolute must, a journey that leaves you simultaneously drenched in history and in sweat, but eminently satisfied with the deep dive into the grandeur of Egypt!
Overall if the return flight was earlier than 1035pm coming back, it would have made the entire day less exhausting due to the heat; however the tour provider did provide with a hotel room to rest before our flight since the tour ended at 4pm.
