Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Ramses is an expert who tailors his experiences to suit your needs. He is passionate about his country and his profession. Highly recommended."
"I booked Ramesis based on his really good reviews online, and he really lives up to it. Excellent knowledge, lovely character and exceptional hospitality, he brings out the best of the lovely Egyptian people. Please book with confidence "
"For anyone heading to Egypt, whether it’s your first visit or returning, do yourself a favor and book Moustafa. No need to look further. He completely enhanced our experience, and the day we spent with him was easily the best day of our entire trip. Moustafa is the real deal. He makes you feel instantly comfortable and taken care of. He’s warmly kind-hearted, funny, on-time and beyond knowledgeable about everything from ancient mythology to modern politics, and everything in between. He is the best of local experts who listens, connects, and tailors the experience to you. In Egypt, we learned that accessing the best locations (and often safety) depend who you’re with. And Moustafa knows everyone. Whether it was getting into the most iconic sites with zero hassle, avoiding tourist traps, or just feeling safe and respected in every interaction—we had that because of him. The locals clearly know and respect him, and that respect extended to us in ways we didn’t expect but really appreciated. On top of all that, he knows where to find truly the best photos, better than you’d dream of. And the best Egyptian food! Everything was clear, transparently priced, and flexible. No pressure, just good energy. He’s also an amazing storyteller. He brought ancient Egypt to life in a way that felt personal and relevant, with connections to world history that made us see things differently. He clearly loves what he does, and you can feel his passion. We cannot recommend Moustafa strongly enough. Plus, a special thanks to our excellent and friendly driver who took care of us from the very beginning to the very end of the tour! Thank you again Moustafa for an unforgettable day."

"Ramses is as good of a tour guide as you will find. First, he knows his stuff. But that’s the bare minimum needed. Our two day tour took into account our family’s needs and desires and made it personal to us. Last minute change, no problem - he adapted. We want to get street food, no problem, he took us to a a great spot. The van was always stocked with water and snacks. And we ended the trip having made a new friend. If you’re in Cairo, he will 100% take care of your family’s needs. "
"Respect to Ramses. He is a deep thinker and is a super knowledgeable local. He is on time, well prepared with his driver Joey and ready to share his deep knowledge of Egyptian history. He is a family man who understands that his role is critical to that supporting function and therefore his tours are detailed and well organized. He reads hieroglyphics fluently and has a strong knowledge of the Arab history and its relation to Egyptian history. I thoroughly enjoyed my time with Ramses and would highly recommend him for his decency, integrity and professionalism. It’s always fun to tour with a local who considers guided tours as their primary career. "
"I travelled to Cairo with my 10 year old history buff son. Ramses XII was the most informative guide imaginable. He tailored our Pyramids tour to incorporate Giza, Saqqara and Dashur pyramids all in one day plus was able to add on the Egyptian museum. He was very clear and concise in his narrating and engaged well with my son. I cannot recommend him enough Thank you Ramses 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼"
"Words can't describe how much I enjoyed my full day tour of the Pyramids with Ramses. We went to 3 different Pyramid sites and at 2 of them we were mostly alone which was amazing. Ramses command of English is perfectly fluent with very little accent and is very easy to understand. Ramses is very highly educated and well read. Not only that he can read ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics. Impressive indeed. Everywhere we went he found people he knew and they all said I was lucky to be with him, and I couldn't agree more. He told me he has probably been to the Pyramids 10,000 times and I believe it with his incredible knowledge. I recommend him very highly. Thank you for a day I'll never forget Ramses! "
"It was a pleasure to spend a full day with Ramses. He was reachable at any time before and after the booking. Open to make little changes and ready to make decisions at the spot. Our trip started and finished on time. Ramses shared everything he could, my husband and I were impressed and fascinated with the experience. We absolutely recommend Ramses. We wanted to book him for the next day but he has fully booked. Don’t think it twice book him now, you won’t regret it!"
"We had a great day with Ramses XII and driver, Johnny, in Alexandria. We saw everything we wanted and Ramses was very informative and also shared his past experiences of Alexandria. Would definitely recommend. "
"My husband and I had the best day with Ramses on his tour \"Pyramids of Egypt: Full-Day Exploration\". He helped us make the most of every minute exploring the amazing sites of Dashur, Saqqara and Giza and timed the whole day to avoid the crowds. We got so much insight into the ancient Egyptians, setting a great foundation for more learning throughout our time in Egypt. Ramses is super knowledgeable and friendly. Very highly recommend this tour."
