We visited all the sites as per the itinerary and the guide was very polite and knowledgeable. He was also very accommodating towards all our requests. We were not rushed; they were on time; and WhatsApp communication was great. We wanted to try camel meat for lunch and the guide made the arrangements which was very kind. I’m sure the restaurant overcharged us, but we wanted to try it anyways. They did take us to couple of shops, not included in the itinerary, which is very obviously, an attempt to make commissions of the potential sales. Just say no, unless you are interested. Advise: If it’s

My guide Adel Abdallah from Select Tours (he is also the owner) is on all aspects fantastic! He was sharp on time in my hotel for the start of my little adventure. His English is of a high standard (no wonder, he studied for it). His car is very young and comfortable (Mitshubishi SUV). His knowlegde of the Egyptian history is very extended (also herefore he studied). He even informs you about details and drives safely! His price is very reasonable. In other words: book him!

Easy tour to book and delightful surprise to find I was only one doing the tour on the day - this meant I could ask lots of questions of the archeologist guide plus appreciated the hotel pick-up and drop off. There was plenty of time to explore all sites and the driver was very safe and did not rush to change lanes every 2 minutes in the what looks to be chaotic traffic to a visitor to Cairo.

I had a fantastic time on this tour with my guide Adel, who is not only an incredibly knowledgeable Egyptologist, but also a genuinely kind and helpful person!! I'm so glad I got to see these amazing places with him -- most tourists only seem to visit Giza, but Saqqara and Dahshour were SUCH a treat!! Some additional thoughts the trip --- Organization & logistics: The team was super responsive when arranging my reservation, had no communication issues whatsoever. Adel picked me up from my hotel promptly at 8 am -- zero delays. He speaks excellent English (and was actually an English teacher in

This was a great tour from beginning to end! Egypt Select Tours was right on time and extremely professional! The guide was amazing and really brought Egypt to life in a way I could understand. He helped me understand the history of the pyramids we visited and made it fun as well. This is a great company and a great tour!

Had a great time with Adel. He was very knowledgeable and helpful when I had problems. He let me explore the areas without feeling rushed and taught me also about the local areas surrounding the attractions. Would recommend to anyone.
