As a solo female traveler in Egypt, things can get quite intimidating quite quickly! But not if you have Abdul to guide you and Mamdouh to drive you safely to the most amazing temples and sights you can imagine. My tour(s) - both of them - were very well done, timely pickup, clear historical explanation, and deft fending-off of the ever-present touts in the area. Very highly recommended!
