A good way to see Alexandria from Cairo - My family’s tour of Alexandria was one that I would definitely recommend. I liked that the tour allowed me to choose the four tourist attractions that I wanted to go to. Furthermore, the guide, Dina, was kind, knowledgeable and accommodating. In short, she was everything you would want in a guide. She did all that she could to make sure that my family would enjoy the tour, including helping to entertain my 3-month old daughter. Lastly, our driver offered a clean and comfortable ride to and from Cairo. He made sure to stop as often as my family would like and give us as much time as we needed at each stop.

The sights of Alexandria will always be a highlight of my holiday in Egypt. - Our driver and guide were right on time. They were also kind, fun and knowledgeable. We learned so much new information and the seafood lunch was fantastic. We learned about Egyptian history and culture from our guide and left with a friendship.

Must book when you go to Egypt - This was such an amazing experience. Our tour guide Giada was extremely nice and had so much knowledge of the sites to share. It was a great experience from start to finish. Our driver also was very helpful and this tour took out any worry someone might have traveling to a new country. Thank you for everything.

Alexandria - Thank you Wassam for the tour of Alexandria. Your knowledge of the city and friendliness were very much appreciated. It's hard to comprehend the vastness of history and changes in land level but you explained it all very very well. I'd recommend this tour to all. Thank you

Excellent Trip - The whole day was memorable and no one thing stands out. The guide was knowledgeable and presented the information in an interesting way. He was also happy to answer questions and enter into a conversation about where we were visiting and events in Egyptian history appertaining to where we were visiting. I currently has a mobility issue, at present, and was mindful of my physical limitations.

A pleasant day trip to Alexandria with nice lunch - It was a nice day trip to visit Alexandria. We picked this trip because it included the entrance fees of the major destinations and lunch so that we could be hassle free. We were picked up by a decent white van for 3 of us in the morning. Driver Peter was nice, polite and helpful. The guide Medhat was knowledgeable and introduced the stories of all destinations clearly. He seems to be very popular locally as he knew everyone on the street 😂. We had a nice lunch 🐟 at a restaurant facing the Mediterranean Sea. We were able to visit most of the major destinations within Alexandria in the trip.
