Knowledgeable Personable Trustworthy Exceptional - My wife and I had the pleasure of spending our first and last days on holiday in Egypt with Ramses. We’ve had many guides and honestly, Ramses is among the... Read full review best. His communication skills from start to finish our exceptional. His guidance was spot at every turn. He suggested a very early start in Gaza, and we were able to climb the great pyramid by ourselves before the crowds arrived. Based on our conversation, he put together a stellar custom Cairo tour for our last day. If you’re lucky to be able to book him do so without reservation.

Fantastic day tours in Cairo! - Ramses is a fantastic tour guide! We took 2 day tours with Ramses to the Giza Pyramids/Grand Egyptian Museum and Saqqara. Both were excellent! Ramses was so knowledgeable and he... Read full review made sure we saw everything at each location! We’d highly recommend booking with Ramses!

One of the best most qualified guides in Cairo - Ramses was simply great!  - From the moment we reached out to Ramses (real name Mo, but there’s a great story behind it!), he was super attentive & professional & created a bespoke 2 day... Read full review trip for my wife & I: a very personalised visit to the Giza Plateau on day 1, followed by a visit the new GE museum next the pyramids. We paid the premium for the VIP golf cart option and AVOIDED THE QUEUES at both locations which were humongous so save your pennies and be pampered in the VIP lounge. His knowledge was exceptional, & he took us to places that we simply would not have seen. The crawl down into the centre of Menkaure’s tomb was quite challenging but a once in a lifetime experience. He then gave us an afternoon tour of the new museum, the highlight of which was King Tut’s treasure if you missed it in London in 2011 - it’s never leaving that place so go! In truth we wished we’d had a 2nd day in the museum as it’s MASSIVE but Ramses made the most of our slightly limited time. Day 2 was to see mustabas, pyramids & colossi at Saqqara, Dashur & Memphis - all awesome and so well explained. Another pyramid entered but not for the faint hearted! His driver was super safe & whilst Ramses isn’t the cheapest guide, you will get so much more out of your inevitably limited time with him by your side. Thank you Ramses - a trip of a lifetime thanks mainly to your guiding hand!

An Excellent Choice!  - Ramses was an exceptional find for our layover tour in Cairo. Sorting through the many tour options and guides can be overwhelming but Ramses met and exceeded every expectation and... Read full review made the entire experience seamless, memorable and fun! He ensured we arrived at the sites before the crowds (the VIP tour is absolutely worth it if you have limited time at the pyramids!) and helped us see everything on our wish list, along with a few highlights we didn’t know to ask for. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the culture and the history sharing his expertise in a way that was very approachable and personable. Ramses managed the schedule seamlessly, making the most of our limited time but never making us feel rushed. He was an excellent guide and was absolutely the best choice for our layover tour.

Best private tour guide in Egypt - Don’t go to Egypt alone or join a crowded group tour. Book a private tour guide instead. We were lucky to meet Ramses XII – an incredible private guide. He... Read full review has a PhD in heritage conservation, has published two books (his third book on Egyptian women empowerment is coming soon). His English is perfect, his knowledge is encyclopedic, yet he’s extremely witty and subtle. With him, the trip wasn’t just a quick sightseeing tour — it was a real journey back in time.

Making Ramses' Streak 89 5-Star Reviews. Impeccable.  - Another 5-star review. Come on
Ramses and his driver, Yasir, guided us from the Cairo airport to the Giza Plateau, through the GEM, and finishing in the bazar... Read full review at Naguib for an early dinner before back to the airport for an evening flight. I cannot think of Egypt without thinking of Ramses. He is humble, wise, funny, proud, energetic, caring, thoughtful, courteous, and ridiculously knowledgable, bringing both ancient and modern Egyptian history to life. I came to Egypt not knowing much or anyone and left with a deep sense of awe for its history, culture, and people. Thank you Ramses. Your love of your country and culture is fantastic and inspiring (He is working on, like, his 2nd Phd on Egyptian archeology, culture and history. Decades of study.) My family was very impressed with me for choosing you as our guide😉. You managed to make everyone -- from an 11-year-old girl to a 19-year-old young man to a couple of old folks -- very happy with your attention and positive energy and love of sharing not just Egyptian history and astounding facts but your personal history and life. . Thank you, my friend! Miss you!
Please let me know when you get a 4-star review🙂

The perfect Trip - An unforgettable day – highly recommended!

Our day with Ramses VII was absolutely perfect and without a doubt one of the most beautiful days of our lives. Ramses is... Read full review incredibly kind and friendly, extremely knowledgeable, and truly passionate about what he does.

He knows all the most amazing spots, especially for unforgettable photos, far away from the crowds. Everything was perfectly planned and organized — not a single second of waiting, just pure enjoyment from start to finish.

You can really feel his experience and dedication, and we felt completely comfortable and well taken care of the entire time.

We would do it again anytime — highly recommended!
Thank you, Ramses, for this truly unforgettable experience!

Amazing for families  - We had the most amazing stay in Cairo with Ramses. He guided us on 2 days, one to the pyramids of Gizeh and the other to Saqqara and Dahshur. He... Read full review has vast knowledge of the Egyptian civilization and is genuinely a really nice guy. We felt very safe and taken care of and everything was absolutely perfect. Thank you so much Ramses, we hope to meet you we again in the future.

Extraordinary Once In a Lifetime Experience - An awe-inspiring tour with the best of the best guide. Words seem insufficient to explain this adventure. It truly was the most incredible experience in all of my travels around... Read full review the globe. Being completely honest, I was slightly skeptical this was going to go as promised until it actually happened as it seemed too extraordinary to be true. The price appears high, but after understanding the cost to maintain and functionally run The Great Pyramids of Giza, it is a fair and understandable fee. About Ramses: he expertly handles all of the complicated bureaucracy and logistics. Ramses is a PhD and is a pure wealth of information on all subjects of Egypt. He is full of passion, energy, knowledge and wisdom with a fantastic sense of humor. We genuinely had the Great Pyramid of Khufu to ourselves after hours. Ramses guided us into the ascending passageway, through the Grand Gallery to the King’s Chamber, down into the Queen’s Chamber, and further down the descending passageway to the subterranean chamber. We were enlightened with his studied knowledge throughout our fascinating journey. It was a priceless experience to be in a marvel and world-renowned structure of ancient architecture - alone. It is a real and exceptional opportunity. If you are able, do it!

Luxury travellers with big requests which Ramses met and exceeded our expectations  - Wow! Hands down the most caring tour guide we have ever had! We are luxury travellers and worried about the service we might get not booking through a large company.... Read full review From day 1 of messaging Ramses, his level of knowledge and professionalism put me at ease. As we planned out our trip, he challenged me with questions on what we would like to see and do. The best thing we could have ever done and what you can do with booking a tour with Ramses is to let him guide you. He knows the best times and days to maximise your days. We had some very special tours, and wow those were definitely life changing for us, and big bucket list items now ticked off our list! Thanks again Ramses for an unforgettable few days in Cairo! PS. He also makes a great photographer!!
