Pyramids of Giza and Egyptian Museum Tour

Stayed an entire week in Egypt and booked multiple tours with Go Luxor. It was myself, my dad, and my step-mom. Francis was our expert Egyptologist and he accompanied us on two of the three tours we did. We started at the Pyramids of Giza and Egyptian Museum on Day 1 which was excellent. Francis was extremely knowledgeable and gave us a great background to everything we were seeing. He took extremely good care of us despite our jetlag and fatigue from being up all night traveling the night prior. He took pictures of us and I was so impressed with catering to our individual needs. The next tour I did with Go Luxor was at Abu Simbel near Aswan. It wasn't with Francis, but another guide, that I don't really remember. Our time with him was very short since guides aren't allowed inside the temple. The next tour we did was again with Francis and we went to Alexandria which was a great day trip. Francis, again, was top-notch in his knowledge of the city and the history. Michael, whom I arranged the tours with, was easy to communicate with and was very helpful. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for tours in Egypt!

Words, pictures, and videos can never do justice to my experience traveling Egypt in July of 2022. I keep telling people to truly understand you must be there in person. You have to stand in the shadows of the Pyramids of Giza, make your way through the passageways leading into the tombs of the pharaohs, and feel the desert sun on your face to understand. The other thing you must do, to really provide depth and knowledge to your trip is booking a tour with Michael Samir Shaker as your guide. Mike met me at the airport and throughout my entire travels in Egypt, which included Cairo, Aswan, and Luxor, exposed me to a rich history and background of the landmarks I was seeing, as well as allowing me to taste the flavors of Egypt, and truly appreciate the ancient and modern versions of the country. Knowing I was a teacher, Mike gave me an account of people, places, and events with the mindset of how it would benefit my students and how I could potentially present it to them. I have seen the pyramids, stood inches from King Tut’s mummy, swam in the Nile River, and a hundred other experiences, as I said before, that can only be experienced firsthand. Without Mike I would not have seen all that I saw, I would not have understood all I witnessed, and I believe I would not have had a once in a lifetime adventure. I will be back to Egypt someday to show my sons this amazing place. Before I go, I will definitely be contacting Mike Shaker to give my family the best, the very best, guide and companion one can find in Egypt.

Excellent guides who took care of all the details. Extremely knowledgeable and accommodating to our needs and wants. It felt like we have know them for years. 100% recommended!
