A Pleasant Visit to Alexandria - Had a great time on this day trip. Was a good way to get out of Cairo and see another city in Egypt. The drive was long, but I was grouped with two other friendly travelers, so we spent the ride to Alexandria chatting. Once in Alexandria, we had a wonderful guide named Aman, who was knowledgeable and entertaining. Saw some great sites and learned quite a bit about the history of Alexandria. After a jam-packed day, our driver promptly drove us home while we all slept. Overall, a memorable experience.

Excellent guide! - The tour was excellent! Pick up was right on time and it was a smooth ride. Nadia greeted us with waters and wafers for breakfast. She has a great energy, she is very knowledgeable, very passionate about her role and the history of Egypt. She shared information with us all the way to Alexandria. We are very grateful for having such an extraordinary woman as a guide. She also has a great sense of humor. Everything was right on schedule, and the driver was also very kind. Overall the tour was very well organized. I would recommend it to anyone that doesn’t want to leave Egypt without seeing Alexandria.

Great tour! Recommend to anyone who wants to visit Alexandria - This tour was absolutely brilliant! Both our guide Ayman and our driver Sayed were professional, polite and wonderfully organised. Sayed was a brilliant driver stopping when requested by others on the tour for a comfort break. Ayman was a fantastic guide who explained all the sites and monuments with incredible Enthusiasm, clarity and was really engaging. They both went above and beyond to accommodate some additional requests from a couple of the tour group which they seamlessly incorporated. I was travelling as a solo female and they made me feel welcome and safe too so I would recommend this tour if you are travelling as a solo female. The company also provided lots of information in advance about pick up time, location and Ayman also sent a photo of the car so I would recognise it - another example of him and the company going above and beyond! The whole day was wonderfully organised and the lunch was delicious (get the fish! You are in Alexandria after all!). You got a perfect amount of time at each site and Ayman made special efforts to make sure you avoided crowds and were in the shade where appropriate for explanations. I could not recommend this tour more highly!! Definitely a 10/10 for a visit to Alexandria!

Great Experience - I had a great trip to Alexandria with my driver and guide (Eslam and Ayman). The schedule of activities was well organized, the tour was very engaging, and both Eslam and Ayman were absolutely wonderful. I felt well cared for, the lunch spot was amazing, and all the sights were explained in great detail thanks to Ayman's enthusiasm and passion for his work.

Alejandria - The Alexandria tour let us down a bit about the expectations we had. The Guide was correct, and provided us with different interesting facts about the site. We would like to make special mention of our driver Belii. Always with a smile, super nice and watchful that we were comfortable on all the routes. We even prepared a music list for our trip. A love of person.
