A beautiful shore excursion in Alexandria

We had a lovely and relaxing shore excursion with Maha in Alexandria. Maha was very striving and flexible in the design of the day and gave us nice insights to the main sights (catacombs and Biblioteca Alexandrina ..) but also to local markets, shops and mosques. Her German was excellent. We had chosen this agency especially as it was the only one on Viator that offered individual excursions in German. A very successful day

A Great Experience!

The experience when you have a wonderful guide is much better than when you try to do it yourself or have a “not so good” guide. Mohammed was wonderful, informative and very enthusiastic. We learned a lot in the museum in Giza and all the other places he took us during our two days in Alexandria. Thank you so much for a great time!
