Alexandria Privat dagstur fra Kairo

Our guide was good and knowledgeable. During the tour he convinced us that it was would a great experience to take a cruise. We thought it was an extra excursion offered by the company and we agreed. When we saw the boat, we knew it was anything but. It was a small old and filthy boat and we smelled the exhaust for the whole 45 minute cruise. What was worse, it was used by his friend to ferry people from one boat to another. Our actual cruise was perhaps 25 minutes with no commentary. After the cruise, I asked the guide about the "surprise visit" to the church or the mosque. He told us that it was too far away. When I asked him why he did not factor that in with the planning, he had no answer. We then realized that he was trying to earn some money on the side. This is so unfortunate as he did a good job on the other included sites.

Wessam was a fantastic guide. Friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. Very good English and a very nice lady.

The experienced guide, Ms Naela was very detailed in her explaination throughout the trip. Communication with the guide was very easy, and she made us feel welcomed. The tour length was just nice, not to short or too lengthy. The best part of the tour was at the citadel where the light house of Alexandria used to be. It was amazing to be at one of the ancient wonder of the world.

We had an amazing day trip to Alexandria from Cairo. Our driver Ayman was punctual , kind and courteous. Naelah met us in Alexandria and created a perfect day for us . We visited the catacombs, the library, the citadel , mosque and cathedral. Naelah is super knowledgeable about everything in her home city and nothing was too much trouble. She also arranged a lovely meal (vegetarian ) at the famous fish restaurant and even a visit to buy quality essential oils. We will never forget this lovely day. We were transported home by Mustapha, quickly and safely no fuss. Highly recommend.

Mahmoud was a great driver and Dina our guide provided wonderful commentary on the museums, library and catacombs we visited along with the history of the city. Lunch was good as well. We enjoyed discovering Alexandria and recommend the tour.

Friendly driver (Mohamed) and fun tour guide (Mahmoud). Mahmoud is very knowledgeable. We had a good time at Alexandria, especially the touring of Catacombs of Kom el Shoqafa, and the delicious seafood lunch with great ocean view. The rest of the destinations felt a little bit rushed for our private group (4 people). We wished that Mahmoud would always accompany us during the tour (like in Catacombs) for some other destinations (where he let us go by ourselves except the introduction at beginning of the each visit.

We ended our Egyptian odyssey with an excursion to Alexandria, a Greco-Roman contrast to ancient Egypt of the Pharaohs. Naelah, our tour guide in Alexandria, was professional and knowledgeable. She did an excellent job of guiding us to the historic Citadel of Qaitbay, the ancient Catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa, the ruins of the Roman Amphitheater & Pompey’s Pillar, and the modern Bibliotheca Alexandrina. She brought each archaeological site to life with brief historical sketches. She was also efficient in time management, given that we had to drive back to Cairo that afternoon/evening. The two drivers who ferried us to and from Cairo were good at their job. As a bonus, Naelah took us to a pharmacy to get medication for my sinuses (I must have caught an Egyptian bug): she is a former pharmacist. She also gave my wife tips on skin care using Egyptian oils. I highly recommend this tour, especially with Naelah as a guide to anyone wanting to discover the sights of Alexandria. In addition, the tour also includes a seafood lunch overlooking the Mediterranean Sea.

Had a good experience during our Alexandria trip. The tour guide Mahmoud has excellent knowledge and provided full insights. Highly recommended and must visit with these travels

We enjoyed an amazing day visiting the archaeological sites of Alexandria with our excellent and knowledgeable guide Mahmoud abdel Rehman. Loved visiting and learning about the library of Alexandria, catacombs, Roman theatre, Sepapeum of Alexandria, and viewing the Quaitbay, St Mark’s cathedral. Will highly recommend this for those interested in history

The driver that picked us up from our hotel and drove us back and forth from Alexandria is simply excellent. Since it was only me and my wife it ended up being a private tour. As for the guide she is OK. Keeps to herself. The best part is she took us to one of the best seafood restaurants. Oddly, she never offered to take our picture which typically happens.
