Smooth experience, Alexandria is worth a visit! - We booked the tour with the driver only because we wanted to visit mostly the Greek sights of Alexandria. Communication was great, our driver Omar was with us all the time ensuring a smooth travel and taking us from one stop to another. Omar was very flexible, helpful, fun, gave us a lot of information about life in Egypt and speaks great English! I recommend booking with this agency even if you have your own plans for Alexandria!

Excellent Alexandria experience!!!! - Our guide Eslam was extremely knowledgeable and personable throughout our tour thru Alexandria. We hit all of the main tourist spots in addition to some shopping stores and local attractions. We did not feel rushed at all and would definitely recommend it highly. The library and lunch at the Fish Market were both awesome as well.

Unforgettable Alexandria Day Tour from Cairo - This private day tour to Alexandria from Cairo was simply exceptional! From the comfortable, air-conditioned transport to the expert guide who shared fascinating insights about the city's history, every detail was well planned. We explored the majestic Library of Alexandria, the scenic gardens of Montaza Palace, and the iconic Qaitbay Citadel. The itinerary was perfectly balanced between historical sites and relaxing seaside views. If you're looking for a blend of culture, history, and beauty, this tour is a must-do! Highly recommended!

Great Alexandria day trip - We’ve had a great day in Alexandria today seeing the sights. Our tour guide Eslam has so much knowledge to pass on to us. We have learnt a lot from him. Lunch was great at the fish restaurant on the water. I would definitely recommend this trip to see Alexandria

Excellent! Feeling - We couldn't have been luckier! Eslam, our guide, an anthropologist by passion, kind by devotion, who, in addition to tell us the history of Alexandria, shared with us the experiences of the locals. From the monuments, to the walk by the sea, to the fish, rice, sausage and liver, we were eligible to have an Alexandria passport! Hope next tour be in Spanish. Also thanks to Mahmoud, our driver, who ride safely, kind and always ready to pick up us on time Shukran!
