Answer 2

I would not even think about it. Go by air it is so much quicker. We did the Hurghada to Luxor by coach it is such along day you are rushed all day and have to get up at daft o'clock in the morning. Check out Egypt Air for flight prices.  Leave it on country Egypt as you get a better price.

Answer 3

I don't recommend anyone to travel by road unless absolutely necessary, mostly desert, very hot by day, very cold by night, extemely dusty & dirty you will be too exhausted to check out all our fabulous historic monuments, treasures etc.. Much quicker to travel by air. Go online & check Egyptair.com & negotiate with a taxi driver to take you to all historical sites for the day. You will see far more & will not feel exhausted + you will have a new friend. The taxi driver!

Enjoy your trip! x

Answer 4

Oh man what an awesome idea! I would love to do that too.. I love road trips! I think it would take up to a day and half with motel stops.. I'm not sure how those people who said 10 and 12 hrs come from..  I mean.. the distance from Cairo to Luxor is 721 km (around 500 miles) and by train it takes about 10 hours so..

Have fun!
