Five stars - Great experience with Mo. He does an excellent job showing you the real side of Alexandria while also sharing the most important historical and cultural sites. Very easy to converse along the way. I learned a lot and enjoyed my time.

Local Alexandria - We had a fantastic tour of Alexandria! Momo is a great tour guide. Despite scheduling difficulties because of a national holiday, he worked hard to show us around his city. He also personalized the tour to fit our interests. He was very knowledgeable and made several excellent food suggestions. He was able to help us experience a truly local Alexandria. We would absolutely recommend a tour with him.

Fantastic streetlevel tour of downtown area, great guide - This type of private tour depends on the guide, and with Momo we had the best. He listened to what we wanted to see, suggested sites we had not thought of, and provided an interesting commentary of everything we saw. We went to sites we would not have thought of (Italian Coptic church), to sites still under construction, but important to see in the future (Greek Roman museum), and to the oldest pastry shop in Alexander (1927) where we enjoyed pastacio cakes. We highly recommend Momo as your guide; you will have a customized trip to remember.

AMAZING EXPERIENCE!!! - Mahmoud is such a sweetheart - he will do everything he possibly can to ensure you have the best possible experience. You can see from the way he deals with you that he does his work from the heart and truly cares that you feel satisfied. He showed me all the areas I wanted to see in Alexandria with lots of historical detail and funny anecdotes. He knows all the local spots and never fails to surprise you with new ideas! Would 100% recommend!!!

Excellent Service with Mo! - Mo is such an amazing guide! My husband and I did the walking tour with him and we just loved him and fell in love with Alexandria because of him. He was very flexible and understanding of our changing schedule because of travel mishaps. He was extremely accommodating. He explained everything very well and he added the tour to the catacombs last minute, although it was not part of the walking tour. In the evening he also showed us the bibliotheca. He is very passionate and knowledgeable about Egyptian and Alexandrian history and culture! Highly recommend him to anyone visiting Alexandria.

5-star rating for Walk like an Egyptian -Alexandria - Excellent day spent in Alexandria. Mohammed Adel Omar, Egyptologist was our guide for the day. We had a slight delay due to a flat tire but were on our way shortly after 8 a.m. as it is a 3 hour drive to get to Alexandria. We stopped mid-way for a bio break and coffee. During the drive we received a great overview of Egypt gods and dynasties. When you are hearing and talking about a country that goes back 4000 years there is never a shortage of conversation. The tour in Alexandria covered the fabulous library, catacombs and the Roman ruins. Mohammed is a very experienced guide and was able to provide great knowledge of the sites. The day was wrapped up with a great late lunch overlooking the Mediterranean which set us up for the 3 hour trip back to Cairo. A long day but well worth it. Thanks, Mohammed, for making our first day so rewarding.

Horrible!! - Honestly the worst walking tour we have ever experienced! The guy didn’t have an agenda for us and kept joking “we are guiding him”. That threw us off the whole day since we are the tourist asked to be guided by purchasing this tour. Then has we walk through neighborhoods, which we told him we already visited. He didn’t say anything unless we asked a question and his answers provide zero context or valuable information (basically answers like that’s just what it is). Any time he would give us valuable information it was late (we went to the mosque and after we left he mentioned a tomb so we just missed it). He also completely disregarded a travelers peanut allergy when we wanted him to explain the allergy to the restaurant. That was the final straw and we just went back to the hotel. Don’t book this tour!!! Hosam was horrible!
