Our trip was fantastic, we had great tour guides from start to finish. Mike, who also helped us put the trip together was incredible. He helped us plan the perfect trip and knew all of the best and authentic local shops. He helped us avoid huge crowds and provided us with the rich history of the area while also doubling as a phenomenal photographer. We took so many beautiful photos thanks to him. Mike arranged everything for the 7 days we were in Egypt. From Cairo to Aswan, all the way to Luxor and back to Cairo. We also had a great experience cruising down the Nile and getting a true once in a lifetime experience. The culture was beautiful and everyday we tried new foods, coffee, teas and snacks that truly embody the history of Egypt. The prices were very fair and competitive. Every penny was worth it for us and we got way more out of our trip than we expected based on the value. Mike is the best, if you have the opportunity to book and tour with him, you’re going to love it. His humor, knowledge and kindness were outstanding. We can’t wait to go back!
Absolutely surreal experience! We booked our entire Nile Cruise through Go Luxor Tours, and everything was phenomenal. From the initial pickup to the personalized attention regarding our interests, pace, and managing the heat, they handled it all perfectly. As American solo female travelers, we felt completely safe and cared for from start to finish. If you want a magical trip to Egypt, you have to book with Mike!
Had a perfect trip to Egypt with Michael Samir, Ala and his team in both upper and lower Egypt over about 10 days. This is the second time that I hired Michael and his company Go Luxor Tours to take care of me, this time with my staff. Michael and Ala are very professional, timely, informative and overall just fantastic guides and I highly recommend them!
But your guide was excellent. They picked me up from my Airbnb and from there we took a great tour to the temples in Luxor. Overall excellent excellent experience. They’re very knowledgeable about the temples. All the admission fees were recovered. Overall would recommend this to our company.
Dear Mr. Ali, We truly appreciate you sharing your experience! It means a lot to the team at Go Luxor Tours to know that you had such a great time on your tour. Our guides love bringing Egypt’s history to life, so hearing that your guide’s knowledge and detailed explanations of the hieroglyphics made the visit even more meaningful is wonderful to hear. At Go Luxor Tours, we’re picky about the level of service we provide and that’s exactly what makes us stand out! From knowledgeable guides to unforgettable experiences, we make sure every moment of your Egypt tour is top-notch. Thanks for choosing Go Luxor Tours to explore Egypt with! We’re thrilled to have shared the magic of the Pyramids of Giza, Luxor temples, and the wonders of Ancient Egyptian history with you.
Mike and his team from Go Luxor Tours were awesome, he was very helpful and provided great recommendations and excellent communication with booking our tours. His team consisted of Yehya (Cairo) and George (Luxor) who were both very knowledgeable and great to chat with. Not only did they provide a great tour, they were awesome to chat with as well as discuss other topics besides what was on the tour. As well, they were friendly and great company in general. From inquiry, trip planning, tours, flight bookings everything was a great experience and made everything so smooth with the chaos in Cairo. I highly recommend Mike, his team and Go Luxor Tours if you’re planning a trip…..just don’t mention your ideas on aliens and the pyramids! (Just kidding)
Dear Mr. Joseph, Thank you so much for the fantastic review! We’re really happy to hear that you had such a smooth and enjoyable experience exploring Egypt with Go Luxor Tours. Mike and the whole team work hard to make planning Egypt tours easy and stress-free, so it’s great to know the communication, recommendations, and trip planning helped everything run seamlessly. We’re also glad you enjoyed your time with Yehya in Cairo and George in Luxor. Sharing the stories behind the Pyramids of Giza, the temples of Luxor, and the fascinating world of Ancient Egyptian history is what our guides love most—and having great conversations along the way always makes the experience even better. Thank you for recommending Go Luxor Tours for anyone planning Egypt travel. We’d love to welcome you back anytime for more adventures along the Nile River… and don’t worry, we’re always open to a few fun pyramids mysteries discussions too!
Wonderful experience, great communication throughout, highly recommended. Very informative guides, a must.

Great experience in Cairo, pyramids and Luxor as well as airport pick up. Luxor was great and made travel easy for my family. We had amazing tours with excellent tour guides. If you want a hassle free trip go with GoLuxor!
Had an absolutely fantastic trip - went as part of a multiday package and Mike was extremely responsive and accomodating to our budget. Also had the pleasure of Mike being our guide for a couple of days - great bloke. Highly recommend - made the trip overall stress free and just incredible. Thanks Mike :DDD
Amazing trip with Mike as our guide. Enjoyed Luxor for three days great accommodations at MayFlower cruise as well as Sonesta St George Hotel.
Whilst in Egypt, we had Mike at Go Luxor organise our entire two weeks of tours and transfers. Not only was the service exceptional but the entire process was seamless and allowed us to have a holiday without stress! Mike himself took us to Karnak and Luxor temple, definitely my favourites of the trip- he was an amazing guide, knew all the facts and was a built-in photographer capturing our favourite pics of the trip! I will be recommending go Luxor tours to everyone I know visiting Egypt and only hope we can come back again for the desert tour with Mike.
