Stories you have not heard about the pyramids of Sakkara - Very pleasant experience of the trip with incredible guide, Adel, who have took us through the history of the pyramids and the time they were build.
One can ask and discuss any related subject and will always get a very deep and interesting story from Adel.

Best private tour - This was the perfect private tour, and our guide Ziad was wonderful. He did a great job of guiding us around the sites in a way that beat the big crowds but still allowed us to see everything we needed to. Highly recommend!

Fantastic archeological sites and wonderfully knowledgeable guide - Adel provided a very knowledgeable trip to these wonderful sites. We were particularly interested in the Serapeum at Saqqara and Adel kindly added this to the itinerary for us. Having a dedicated guide was invaluable and allowed us to get to know Adel and learn much more about modern Egyptian life and culture. I would highly recommend his services to friends and family and have kept his contact details to assist us in future Egyptian travel plans.

Amazing Tour - We were in Egypt on holiday for 7 days and booked the Private day tour to Dahshour, Memphis and Sakkara that was hosted by Select Tours. We booked multiple tours during our 7 days, and this one was, by far, the best tour we had, and it wasn’t very close. Our tour guide, Adel, was absolutely AMAZING. His knowledge of the sites was second to none, he was able to answer all of our questions, and we had a lot. You could spend days at each of these sites and still not see everything. What made Adel so great was his ability show and explain the highlights to make it feel like you didn’t miss anything. If we go back to Egypt, without a doubt, we will be booking through Select Tours and Adel. I cannot say enough good about this trip. Thank you so much!!!

Great tour ! - Our trip to Sakkara and Memphis was the highlight of our Cairo visit, all thanks to Adel Abdallah. Not only do they know their history inside and out, but they are also a pro photographer! We walked away with amazing shots of the Step Pyramid that we never would have found on our own.
Adel Abdallah made sure we were comfortable the whole day, providing cold water and keeping us away from the aggressive vendors.
We felt totally safe and well-cared for. If you want a guide who feels like a friend and knows all the "secret" spots to avoid the 2026 tourist crowds, book Adel Abdallah immediately!
