Excellent experience - Mind-blowing experience. Very exciting to see and touch the pyramids, to be immersed in history. However, we must be prepared for the chaos of the city, it is admirable the relaxation of them, an important learning.

5 Stars for Ramasside Tours! - I cannot say enough good things about our vacation to Egypt. We loved every aspect of our time spent there. We visited the Pyramids, Sphinx, and Luxor. It truly is incredible! Our guides from Ramasside Tours aided in our incredible experience. From our initial booking with Sylvia, who was our go to person and was always quick to respond and get us the information we needed or answer our questions. Paula Samir who was our guide through the pyramids and sphinx is undeniably knowledgeable and took the time to take pictures of us and always made sure we were taken care of. Amr Hamed was our guide throughout all of Luxor. We spent the better part of 12 hours together with our driver also. These two gentlemen went above and beyond for us. We're grateful for their hard work and it did not go unnoticed. Finally, Ahmed from traffic management who assisted in organizing our transportation at times and Mina who was kind enough to wait at the airport in Cairo after our flight from Luxor was delayed. Ramadside Tours is built with professional, hard working individuals. Without a doubt, a five star company. I plan to use their services with future trips to Egypt and am looking forward to it!

An Awesome and worthwhile experience with Knowledgeable guide - It was such a great tour. Our guide Alber was such a good host and was able to accommodate each of our request. Both the guide and photographers were well spoken, reassuring and provided a comfortable environment for our 3 year old kid. The Pyramids and Sphinx were amazing. Camel ride (which my kid enjoyed a lot) was so exciting and fun and it is definitely a must in Cairo. There were loads of extra stops like a clothes shop, perfume shop and Papyrus art shop. Alber was so knowledgeable and enthusiastic with perfect English. Would highly recommend and ask for Alber,my kid adored him too. Definitely a value for your time and money trip 10/10 Best day we had in Cairo , Egypt

Day out at the pyramids, Egyptian museums - Ramasside helped to arrange a great day out in Giza. We started off visiting the Egyptian museum, the Civilisations museum before rounding it off with a visit to the pyramids and the Sphinx. We even managed to ride around on camels at sunset at the pyramids which was magical. Our guide, Yasmin was very patient, friendly and knowledgeable. We were kept busy and interested at all times at a pace we could manage comfortably. Great day out and highly recommended in Cairo/ Giza

CAIRO IN A DAY - The tour for a day in Pyramids of Giza, Sphinx and museum was okay. It was fun and educational. Our tour guide Ahmed Salah was excellent and patient. He was able to fill our curiosity in Egypt’s history. Plus, he took great and instagrammable photos too! The only downside is, Grand Museum may be more preferrable since it has more old artifacts and I think more facts to discover as per tourist’s perspective. If added instead of Egyptian Museum, the tour will be more appreciated. Overall, it was a great experience!

Giza Pyramids and Egyptian Museum - The Giza Pyramids and Sphinx tour was great. We did enter into the Heop's pyramid (at extra cost). I took a camel ride as well (also extra cost). The guide Ahmed Nashaat was knowledgeable and experienced. The visit to the Egyptian Museum in the afternoon however, was at a rush. Two hours are not enough. Even if it is not possible to see every single piece in the museum, at least 3 - 3 1/2 hours should be planned for this.
