I thought I had booked a tour of Alexandria with a pickup at the port; understandable as the tour I originally booked was located by Viator under Tours from the port. After I booked was contacted by Ramasside to be advised that the tour was only available from Hotels. With help from Nada and Sarah I managed to find the correct tour. Rammaside then contacted me prior to the tour with a photo of the mosque outside the port gates where the guide, Mohammed would meet us. The WhatsApp message also included a photo of Mohammed. All very impressive. The tour impressed even more. Mohammed was an excellent guide with a brilliant manner and detailed knowledge of all the sites we visited. We enjoyed lunch at a local restaurant and coffee at Mohammed's favourite cafe. An unforgettable day.We used these guys for a 6 hour tour through Alexandria. Karim was very knowledgable about the history and town, and Mohammed the driver was very professional too. We had a great variety of things to see and do with excellent organisation.

We used these guys for a 6 hour tour through Alexandria. Karim was very knowledgable about the history and town, and Mohammed the driver was very professional too. We had a great variety of things to see and do with excellent organisation. We asked for the same guide and driver to take us to Rosetta (Rashid) the following day too. This was a magical place and walking through the township was fantastic fun. The shop owners all knew Karim so we were able to get an insight to day-to-day life there. The meeting of the Nile and the Mediterranean was lovely as were all the bright fishing boats. I can understand that this place wouldn't suit everybody but we enjoyed it so much. We would highly recommend Karim and Mohammed, and their fun but professional service.Необыкновенный город Александрия. Очень понравилось нам. Много интересного увидели. Всё сразу не рассказать.
