Lovely foodies tour!

Karim took me on a tour through Downtown on a Friday evening. We tasted lovely food at different local favourite restaurants. We looked at the sights on the way. Ice cream and lovely warm desserts followed, inbetween we walked the buzzling souq markets, looked at people shopping for clothes and toys and jewellery and veggies and fish. A real Alexandrian immersion! Karim has a lovely sense of humour and explains the local ways very nicely. I had a great time snd am looking forward to doing other tours with him when visiting Alexandria next time. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 stars for sure!

Day Tour of Alexandria, Egypt with Mahmoud

We booked directly with Ramasside tours. Pick up at our hotel. Mahmoud was our guide for the day. We visited all the wonderful sights of Alexandria. Mahmoud's knowledge on the history of Egypt is exceptional. He is also an archaeologist and having his explanation to the diggings of the sites is wonderful. Thanks so much for an interesting day in Alexandria. Highly rate Mahmoud as an expert guide.

A tour with Heba in Alex!

A really great experience with Heba - I described in advance what I was looking for and I got that and more. You meet a guide at the beginning and you leave having developed a friendship. I’m a photographer so I was looking for angles and views and different things happening. Highly recommend this. You’ll know Alexandria so well ::)

Amazing tour of Alexandria

Karim was an amazing tour guide. He planned the day perfectly, we went to the open air spots earlier so the heat wouldn't get to overwhelming. When the day started getting warmer we went to the inside spots with aircon. He took special care so I had all the time I needed at every spot, and awnsered all my questions. He was the perfect guide.

Varied and informative tour of Alexandria.

Karim was very enthusiastic, friendly and informative. He picked us up on time and kept to our schedule seeing all the sites promised. It was even more enjoyable as he seemed to know everyone in Ciaro and being with him meant no queuing for entry. His English is excellent so communication was easy. I would highly recommend him as your guide in Alexandria.

RASHA is a fantastic tour guide!

My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed our tour with our guide Rasha and driver Heny!!!! They were punctual picking us up at our hotel at 9am. We were returned at 3pm. Rasha spoke English very clearly. She was very knowledgeable about the history and sites in Alexandria. She listened to what we wanted to do and answered all of our questions. We did not get dropped off at a shopping district and did not feel rushed while visiting the sites. The Alexandria Library is closed on Fridays so we visited the Jewelry Museum instead. Henry was a good and friendly driver. It was an informative tour and I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Rasha and Henry!!
