Great day trip to Alexandria - We took a day trip to Alexandria from Cairo. The Library there was one of the highlights of our trip to Egypt. Our driver drove very safely, we met an excellent Guide in Alexandria, and had a wonderful lunch at a Fish Restaurant.

A rewarding and friendly day - We had a fantastic day in Alexandria thanks to Mamdouh Kamal! His in-depth knowledge of Egyptian culture and local history is impressive, and he was able to convey it to us with clarity and passion. Mamdouh speaks excellent French, which made the visit even more enjoyable. Always listening, he did not hesitate to find solutions to meet our demands and adapt the program to our desires. And as a bonus, his subtle humor added a light touch to this already rich experience. Thank you for this beautiful discovery!

Phenomenal - This was an experience like no other! [History Guy]… the amount of detail and explanation of the catacombs, the citadel, mosque monger other places you’ll see on this trip is amazing. The largest library in the world to be included. Our driver was Sayed Mohy, -SUPER AWESOME -and our tour guide Shirehan (might be spelled wrong…(Im sorry) n was phenomenal as well. She took her time explaining and the information was able to be taken in and understood. Please book this and if you can request both to please escort you!!!

Amazing experience - Was a very good day in Alexandria. The driver was very friendly with us, he came at the right time in the morning to pick us up. Our guide Shery El Shorbagy was extremely good and friendly. After our tour we went to have lunch and we chat a lot with her about the city and the ancient history in Egypt and Alexandria.

Alexandria's important visits cannot be forgotten, but they must have a full day on their itinerary, leaving Cairo early and returning - Alexandria, the second important city in Egypt after Cairo, has 5 million inhabitants, built by the great Alexander in the year 332 BC

Liartour AVOID !!!! - Driver parked half a mile from our 6am pick up only when I messaged the local company did they send a picture of a random hotel he was at so we walked the half mile in the freezing cold to get to him. He had clearly broken wind just before we got in the smell was awful ! Tjis set off a chain of events that resulted in us spending 5 hrs going nowhere the fog descended at 645 and the road was closed we were right at the front so would have gotten through had we been on time. At 11 the driver said we would need to turn back once the traffic got moving as we were still 2 hrs away from Alexandria we finally got back at 12 and applied for a refund £50 however the local company refused and liartor ! Said it was nothing to do with them the local (also lying cheating ) company’s decision was final so 5 hrs sat in a fart strewn vehicle with a non English speaking local surrounded by hundreds of shouting smoking men staring at us ! Bargain !
