Reisroute
Heb je er ooit aan gedacht om een historische stad te bezoeken om getuige te zijn van de overblijfselen van een vervlogen tijdperk? Je begint je Alexandrië-tour met een snelle pick-up van je hotel in Caïro of Gizeh om richting Alexandrië te gaan, onderweg te stoppen om het toilet te gebruiken en een kopje koffie te drinken.
Bij aankomst hebben we de kans om het marmeren Romeinse amfitheater in Kom El-Deka te verkennen, dat vroeger plaats bood aan meer dan 800 mensen. De lusttuin en de Romeinse baden en huizen met mozaïekvloeren zijn prachtige bezienswaardigheden die de moeite waard zijn.
Als u de verkenning naar de Catacomben van Kom El Shoqafa voortzet, bezoekt u deze archeologische vindplaats die wordt beschouwd als een enorme necropolis en koninklijke begraafplaats met een unieke mix van Griekse, Egyptische en Romeinse culturele punten.
Dit is de perfecte gelegenheid om de Pilaar van Pompeius, de belangrijkste Romeinse triomfkolom van Alexandrië, te bezoeken.
Geniet van een lunch in een lokaal restaurant. Vervolgens maken we een fotostop bij de Bibliotheek van Alexandrië, een van de grootste opslagplaatsen ter wereld uit de oudheid, gevolgd door een wandeling langs de Qaitbay Citadel, gebouwd boven de verwoeste vuurtoren van Alexandrië.
Je wordt teruggebracht naar je hotel in Caïro of Gizeh als de scheur eindigt.

We were collected from our Hotel by Ehab and Ramy the driver. Ehab was very polite and enthusiastic on our travels. He made the journey fun as he maintained the engagement with everyone in the group. He was a real asset to the tour. Ramy was a very good driver. We met our tour guide Ayman in Alexandria. He was very knowledgeable and engaged with the group. Fully recommend. A suggestion for improvement would be to slow the pace as it seemed too rushed.
Good and interesting guided tour of Alexandria from Maha Emam. In addition, the transfer from Cairo worked out well.
We had a great time and a great tour. The tour guide was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable. She was an egiptologist and shared her expertise in Egyptian and Greek. Roman art and history. We covered the catacombs ( very crowded), the Roman theater, and the famous lighthouse ordered by Alexander the Great. We had a great lunch ( seafood) at the local restaurant with a Mediterranean sea view. We had no time left for the Coptic church and history in Alexandria. I recommend OceanAir tours.
It was a great experience. We've seen a lot in a very short time. Our great journey has already started in the car with many stories and tales. Can only recommend
Hi! Happy you had a fantastic experience and enjoyed the stories and highlights shared during the trip.
The tour was a bit of a mixed bag: + car is comfortable with AC and a good driver + group size was excellent, four people in total + guide is knowledgable, answers all your questions during the ride + the logistics are well organized, you skip most of the lines On the negative side: - the guide was chasing us through the sites like crazy, we were done with the program before lunch already some of the steps were a real downer (2mins in front of the library, not entering the main building in the citadel, ...), overall we were back in the - the language skils of our guide (the tour was in German) were okay-ish, still one had to concentrate a lot in order to understand everything - the restaurant for lunch is full with masses of tour groups, the drinks are charged extra (overpriced) and the overall atmosphere is not very nice As always with these trips, the experience depends very much on the guide. The trip would have been way better if we had not been rushed that much through the sites
My guide is called Salma , very prepared operator, accurate in the description of the history of Alexandria, very kind, wonderful tour I highly recommend it .very satisfied.
Hi! Salma è felice che il tour ti sia piaciuto e che le sue spiegazioni siano state utili. È contenta che tu abbia vissuto un’esperienza meravigliosa ad Alessandria
Our tour guide, Heba, was amazing! We couldn’t had a better one. She knew pretty much everything and took the time to take good pictures of us, gave us fresh water bottles and was patient when we took extra time to admire the Mediterranean view.
Hi Simon, Heba loved making sure you were comfortable and capturing great photos. She’s glad you enjoyed the views and appreciated her care.
We had the pleasure of touring Alexandria on September 4th with Ahmed Zaki, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. Our tour included the ancient Roman amphitheater, the catacombs of Kom el Shoqafa, Pompey’s Pillar, and the Qaitbay Citadel. Ahmed’s knowledge of each site was incredible—he brought history to life with fascinating details and stories that gave us a much deeper appreciation of Alexandria’s rich past. From the very beginning, Ahmed impressed us with his professionalism. He reached out a couple of days before our tour to confirm the pickup time, and he was always quick to respond to our questions. He even took care to ask about dietary preferences ahead of time—I am a pescatarian, and he made sure lunch was ready for us at a charming restaurant overlooking the Mediterranean. It was the perfect pause in the middle of a busy and exciting day. Throughout the tour, Ahmed was not only extremely knowledgeable but also warm, engaging, and a pleasure to spend time with. We highly recommend Ahmed Zaki to anyone visiting Egypt and wanting an informative, well-organized, and enjoyable tour. He made our time in Alexandria truly special.
Hi Marlena, Ahmed Zaki thanks you for your kind words. He’s happy the tour, lunch, and all arrangements made your Alexandria visit special.
Well organised trip with amazing and knowledgeable guide. Ayman brought a wealth of experience and was flexible with the trip to avoid the big tour buses. He is clearly a passionate Alexandria local and brought his energy to the trip with lots of local anecdotes as well as broader historical connections. Highly recommended, we got the full package with lunch and all entry tickets included.
Hi! Ayman is glad you enjoyed a smooth, well-organized tour and loved sharing local insights. He appreciates your recommendation.
Very nice tour with a professional, passionate and friendly guide. I really enjoyed and recommend this tour if you want to learn more about Alexandria. Everything was well organised, the driver was friendly too. Thank you!
