Absolutely excellent experience. Covered many locations in Alexandria with amazing detail. Walid was an amazing guy who really knew his stuff. Would do again, absolutely.
Alexandria day tour was amazing. Our tour guide, Walid, was very informative and knowledgable and also very friendly. It made our day a very memorable one. There’s plenty of things to do and see in the city (we went to 11 different locations throughout the day) and I’d highly recommend choosing this tour to see them!
Yesterday I spend the day with Waleed as my guide and Mohammed as our driver. We had a nice day in Alexandria and I saw everything that I've hoped to see. Waleed is from Alexandria and he knows a lot about ancient and modern history of the city, as well as about all the rest of Egypt. He explains and tells a lot in an easy and relaxed way and has a nice sense of humor but he also likes to listen and answer all kind of questions from the clients. People are in good hands when they're with Waleed and Mohammed!
Our tour guide Waleed gave us all the information about all the sites we had in the itinerary. He shared some of the interesting facts and stories about the history of Alexandria city.
The visit to Alexandria was magical. Our tour guide Waleed Magdy was so informative and enjoyable he made the day go by so quickly. This is a must see city, the history is amazing and I wish I had more time.
The trip with Mr Waleed is very informative , had the best time and the best food .1 day trip from Cairo to Alexandria readily recommended
Fabulous tour, the guide was very friendly and informative. Tour taken at a suitable pace for all people and didn't feel rushed. Would highly recommend 🙂
Me and my husband has booked many tours from Viator But let me tell you Waleed was the BEST ONE out of all of them. Waleed is so knowledgeable and explains history very enthusiastically. He has such a passion for Egyptian history and it shows thru his work. He took his time and we did not feel rushed at all. The food he arranged for us was exceptional. To explain our trip in one word that would be exceptional all due to Waleed. If you don’t want to waste your money and get it’s worth book with waleed.
The trip was really informative and the guide and driver were very knowledgeable. They were also very kind and considerate.
Waleed is the gem, he is a true star of the tour and lives and breathes Alexandria. I found him very accommodating and helpful. He made my trip so much better.
The comunication and punctuality was good since the beginning. Our guide Waleed knows so much about history, he made the tour more interesting of what I expected and fun, he made us feel comfortable asking questions and talking about anything, not to mention that he made a pretty good choice with food. Loved all the knowledge transmitted by Waleed, 100% recommended
The trip was really good with lots of places worth visiting. Alexandria seems to be a great city but it is not possible to see all those great places without a tour guid. Waleed was really helpful and explained the history of Alexandria in detail. Thank you!
We were provided with an excellent tour. Information was well presented and a lot of ground was covered. Greatly enjoyed the conversations and the lunch. I Would recommend two days in Alexandria. It is a fascinating city
Guide was passionate and patriotic about the history of his home. He was knowledgeable and personal. He seemed to knew every person in town, it was obvious that he has a lot of friends helping him get to the best places. His English was excellent and he was very helpful with questions. I’m positive our day couldn’t have been better without him. We recommend Waleed Magdy for anyone visiting the area.
Thank you Walid, the tour guide for sharing insightful historical facts and stories during the city tour. A big shoutout to Hisham driver for navigating the bustling city streets with ease. Appreciate the dedication and professionalism of Walid who made the tour an unforgettable experience. Thanks to both of them
This trip to Egypt was a good one overall. We enjoyed the pyramids, Luxor, The Nile cruise and Aswan. The tour guide, Mr. Sam went out of his way to make it a good one to us. Thank you 🙏
Wonderful trip! Sam our guide in the cruise was absolutely the best! He helped us beyond his responsabilty and never stoped smiling. He is part of our family now!
Ahmed haggag ali was out tour guide. Very detailed and astounding knowledge on ancient Eqyption history. Fun and enjoyable to be around with and had a great time overall!

Tour with Ramasside has been wonderful.Our egyptologist in Luxor Mr Ahmed Hagag Ali is so enthusiastic and really knowledgeable about Egyptian history.Our guides in Cairo Mr Amir and Alexandria Mr Karim were all so patient and accommodating too. Pickup was always punctual and coordination amongst the Ramasside team is very good!
I am in a wheelchair. Ramanside made my trip happen. My guide in luxor was mohamand he was terrific. He knew history and background not written in books. My guide in cario was duby was excelland. Overall ramanside was great. I would do the trip again.
Hotel very well guide and and drivers very well. The second day not sufficiently full (2 very short visits). A visit to one of Alexandria's museums could have been added, for example. Lunch could be included (we took care of the driver's meal and parking on the first day)
The tour is well worth it, know places full of charm and history, the Guide Waleed has plenty of knowledge, well worth it!
Forfærdeligt oplevelse : INTET var kørestolsegnet - bussen vi blev hentet i, havde godt nok plads til min kørestol bag i bussen, men der var ingen brugbare ramper, så mine hjælpere var nødt til at løfte mig + kørestol ca meter. Meget usikkert for mig og skadeligt for hjælperes rygge Hotellet var en farse: 2 x 4 trin til en elevar der ikke fungerede, hvilken betød at vi var nødt til at tage en vogn til Cairo Sightseeing var spændende og vores guide var fabelagtig.
