Giza Tours and Holidays 2019/2020

“A wonderful family vacation with well-executed planning and management by Ramasside Tours.

Special thanks to our tour guide in Cairo "Haytham" for his friendly and in-depth information regarding the historic sites. Also the tour guide "Imad" for Luxor and Aswan. Last but not least "Salah" for transfers.”

“My husband Peter and I Lili had a marvelous time in Egypt organized by Ramasside. From the moment we arrived at Cairo airport everything was taken care of (the visa, transfers, tour guides, drivers, 5 star hotels, tours). It was a private tour for the 2 of us in air conditioned cars or vans.
The tour guides Sara in Cairo, Mohamed Salama in Alexandria, and Zakaria in Luxor were excellent.

All in all our trip was amazing.
Thanks Nada and Omar for organizing it.”

“Egypt is one of those places which truly amaze and confound even seasoned travelers with its unbelievable ancient sites and unforgettable culture, despite the glaring poverty which seemingly surrounds and swallows up nearly everything and everyone in the country. Some would have questioned my sanity to bring four young children to Egypt when some areas still remain off limits to travelers due to possible terrorist activity. Given all of these concerns why and how did we visit this amazing country of Egypt you may ask. Why, that's simple, its a cradle of civilization and for learned people a once in a lifetime destination not to be missed, simple as that. How, well... it could have been done differently no doubt, but I am very happy to say that I used a well known and highly capable local tour company in Egypt named Ramasside based in Alexandria at its head office. They took what I wanted to see, my budget, and applied the local knowledge required and essential to ensure that the trip would be safe, hassle free, and memorable. They did a fine job on this long 16 day trip across Egypt including visits to Cairo, Giza, Saqqara, Luxor, Aswan, Hurgada, and Alexandria. Some of the many highlights included cruising the Nile in a ship and visiting ancient ruins saved from the flooding of Lake Nasser (Abu Simbel). A brief respite from the sightseeing midway through the trip at the lovely and truly perfect family resort of Steinberger Aqua Magic in Hurgada recharged our batteries before diving back into the amazing scenery of Lower Egypt after a packed trip to Upper Egypt. The guides and drivers all did their absolute best to ensure we were always safe and that the children had extra time if needed such as to accommodate an extra trip to the WC or a quick nap in-amongst the sightseeing. At no time did we ever feel unsafe or unwelcome during our trip to Egypt, and on the contrary were made to feel very welcome by everyone we met be it in the street, at the hotel, in a restaurant, in the bazaar, etc etc. The truth is, you could spend a year in Egypt and only scratch the surface of what the country offers travelers, but for our family and budget we feel that our 16 day full tour of Egypt was exceptional in the quality, breadth and value offered by the Ramasside tour, and I deeply thank them for this life changing trip to Egypt. I only hope that I have the means and health to visit again in the future to this amazing country, and when I do, I will be sure to use Ramasside tours once again. I hope this helps anyone contemplating taking on the Egypt trip with young children, best of luck!”
