Karnak and Luxor Temples (East of Luxor) Tour

My husband and I traveled to Egypt on our honeymoon this summer and were unsure how to start planning our daily activities. We reached out to Go Luxor Tours and connected with Michael through email and WhatsApp. From the beginning, his communication was quick, clear, and professional, which made organizing our trip so much easier. Michael helped us prioritize which ancient sites were truly worth visiting and which we could skip to make room for other activities. Throughout the planning process, we always felt listened to and were confident that Go Luxor Tours was creating the perfect itinerary for our trip. In Luxor, we were thrilled to learn that our guide was Michael, who we had been communicating with for months. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the temples and tombs, bringing the history of ancient Egypt to life. He guided us through the artwork and statues, making sure we didn’t miss the highlights. On top of being a guide, he was the perfect photographer and captured plenty of memories during our tours. In Cairo, our guide was Fady, who was equally knowledgeable about the pyramids, museums and necropolises that we visited. He was friendly and passionate about Egyptian history and culture and answered all of our questions with patience and interest. During our Cairo by Night tour, Fady helped us navigate the busy city effortlessly, making sure we felt safe and comfortable, while also explaining the history of the city's mosques and architecture. We truly can't recommend Go Luxor Tours highly enough. They made our experience feel like we were exploring Egypt with friends rather than just guides and they helped to turn our honeymoon into the trip of a lifetime. Thank you, Michael and Fady, for making our stay in Egypt unforgettable!

From the beginning Mike was incredibly helpful in planning our trip through Egypt with Go Luxor Tours. He helped us design an itinerary to see everything we wanted to see in Cairo and Luxor, we just had to book our own hotels which was nice because then we could stay where we wanted, though he also gave us recommendations for places to stay and we went with both of his suggestions, they were great!We then got to spend 2 days with Mike as our tour guide visiting the West Bank of Luxor for the valley of the kings and temple of Hatshepsut one day with a stop to see how alabaster is used. Mike was incredibly informative and friendly. He answered all of our questions and helped us choose the more interesting tombs to visit in the valley of the kings always making sure to find us shade or a cooler place when he was telling us about the history of each location as it was 50C. He helped us find great locations for pictures and even took us to a lovely spice shop when I asked if he had any recommendations for places to buy spices. Mike even joined us for a sunset cruise on the Nile giving us the opportunity to learn even more about Egyptian culture. The next day we toured Karnak and Luxor temples, stopped at a perfume/oil shop where I didn’t think we’d buy anything but still walked out with a couple essential oils because they were so good, and then Mike got us the best falafel in Luxor! Thank you Mike for such an amazing and unforgettable trip!

Our trip in Egypt and the Nile River cruise were truly incredible! We were on a private tour of seven with Mike, who has been a phenomenal tour guide for us. From start to finish, Mike's communication was exceptional, exceeding our expectations. He is very responsive and on time. His in-depth knowledge of historical sites in Aswan: the Philae Temple, Abu Simbel Temple, and the Nubian Village in is remarkable. The trips to the Karnak Temple, the Luxor Temple, the Hatshepsut Temples and the Valley of the Kings were equally inspiring and educational!! Mike also went above and beyond to ensure we had an unforgettable experience – from recording videos of the birds chirping along the Nile river, arranging a breathtaking hot air balloon ride, taking us to the essential oil, spice shops, the night market, and the stone factory per our request. He was truly an amazing person and guide who made sure everyone’s interests and needs were taken care of throughout the trip. As for our trip in Cairo, our friendly, knowledgeable guide, Faddy not only took us to the majestic pyramid, but also arranged our group for camel ride, an educational visit to the Egyptian museum, a stop at the papyrus shop, the cotton clothing store, and an authentic Egyptian restaurant for the delicious national Koshari. It was well planned and fun experience for us all! Last but not the least, my suggestion would be stay attentive to Mike’s tips about the culture and surrounding environment - it would save you a lot of stress and trouble. If you're looking for an enriching experience in Egypt, I highly recommend Mike and his team – he truly made our trip unforgettable!! Thank you!
