Karnak and Luxor Temples (East of Luxor) Tour

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!

High degree of attention to detail provided by Go Luxor Tours, safety and trust by relying on a well crafted tour agenda. I am a New Yorker/ Solo Female traveler visiting Luxor for the first time and the minute I connected with Mike, I knew Go Luxor Tours was the best choice. The team makes your comfort and safety priority while allowing for flexibility when covering stops, time and add ons. My designated tour guide (Shereen) is extremely knowledgeable and takes great pride in her craft in ancient Egyptian history. I learned a great deal from the hours spent together with immense amount of patience to cover questions and cover explanations. A bucket list trip that was made a reality thanks to Go Luxor! I will definitely return and continue to recommend to friends and family. Funny story - while traveling from Cairo to Luxor to meet the team, I came across another two female travelers (Mom-daughter) who were looking for tour options. I immediately connected them with Mike and by the time we landed in Luxor they already had a plan and arranged option with Go Luxor. Forever grateful for the hospitality and make me feel at home while in Luxo. ;) PS- Four Seasons hotel is building a massive property in Luxor so this is also coming up to the area.

We took 4 tours with Go Luxor Tours - The Giza Pyramids & Museum, Luxor East (Karnak and Luxor Temples), Luxor West and Abu Simbel, as well as private transfer from Luxor to Aswan. As 2 young female travellers, we really appreciate how Mike, the liaison / coordinator, checked in frequently with us to make sure we were safe and having a good time. The best feature of GoLuxor’s service is adaptiveness. We did not vibe very well with the guiding style of our Luxor West guide, and Mike acted swiftly on our feedback and got us a new guide which perfectly fit our preferences for the next day. He was really responsive, and helped us adapt to Egypt, even outside the scope of the tours per se (e.g helping call our Elphantine Island accomodations to make sure we could navigate to them safely, providing detailed instructions on how to take the train from aswan to cairo). 10/10 rating for customer service in this regard! If you are choosing between private or group tour elsewhere, after having done all these tours, I would personally really recommend doing Giza Pyramids and the Luxor East with GoLuxor at least. These sites have so many small details you would miss without a guide with you, and the private guides we had (shoutout especially to Albeer for Giza and Bishoy for Luxor East) were so patient in answering our hundreds of questions, and their passion and enthusiasm made the experience all the more magical! It was so cool especially watching them read the random heiroglyphs we would point to on demand. I can’t lie, Egypt itself is a bit overwhelming as 2 female solo travellers (especially tipping culture, if you come from non-tipping countries pls pls PLS ask either the company or your hosts or anybody for advice because this was personally the most jarring part for me) but GoLuxor tours definitely helped make our experience overall a beautiful and enjoyable one!
