Travel like an Egyptian with tips from Solos’ Egyptologist
Solo Travel in Egypt
Just imagine having the Great Pyramids of Giza on your doorstep, surrounded by stories of the desert and some of the most epic ancient history on the face of the earth. As a certified Egyptologist of 30 years, Solos’ much-loved Tour Leader Tam is bursting at the seams with knowledge—with the advantage of being born and bred in Egypt. But it’s not just his vast knowledge of this remarkable destination that leaves our solo travellers awe-struck.
Meet Tam
“It’s been and still is a privilege. Each group I have guided through the years has special memories close to my heart. I’m always touched with the kind words from the groups about how they enjoyed Egypt as they leave with a big smile.Tam understands the journey they embark on to take that leap, with 26 years of experience showing our Solos the sights. To truly experience Tam’s magic, you’ll have to hop on one of our escorted group tours. In the meantime, he reveals why Egypt is the place for those seeking a unique bucket list trip—like no other.
