We used Minimar travel for overnight stay in White dessert & then for the Nile Cruise. Before coming to Egypt we contacted Mr. Raed who helped us plan our tour. He also gave suggestions on others places we wanted to go in Egypt on our own. Service before & during tour was excellent. Prices were also cheaper than 5 other... More

Over Sylvester 2012 we, a couple from Germany, spent 5 days (4 nights) on a Dahabiya trip from Luxor to Aswan. The boat started from Esna and stopped few km before Aswan. This was our fourth trip to Egypt. On our former trips on the Nile, on the Lake Nasser and in the Libyan dessert we had only positive experiences.... More

I would never bother trying anyone else if/when I go to Egypt again. We booked a twelve night trip and from the start we had instant email replies from Raed. After agreeing the schedule and excursions for the holiday, he still worked behind the scenes to upgrade us. We were met by Ahmed Mahmoud, our guide, at the airport and... More

We had a very enjoyable 16 day holiday organised by Minamar and Select Egypt. We wish to commend on their excellent organization. The level of service was apparent from the beginning our correspondence until the end of the trip.  We also want to commend their choice of guide. Ahmed Mahmoud was enthusiastic, well-informed, caring, and accommodating. His sense of humour... More

My family started to plan our 10-day free and easy Eqypt tour 21/2 months ahead of our early Dec departure. We requested for quotes from a few Egypt tour agents but finally decided to solicit the services of Minamar Tour though there were some not so good reviews posted on Trip Advisor. Mr Raed Sedky, Asst Tourism Manager, provided quotes,... More

We booked excursions to Abu Simbel, Luxor West & East bank from our Nile Cruise boat through Minimar, before we left the UK. Mr Raed Sedky's help in arranging those excursions was invaluable as my wife is disabled, and everything he put in place worked like clockwork. He was most thoughtful in putting together the timings to suit our needs... More
