Resplan
Hämtar dig från ditt hotell i Kairo, res till Alexandria. Börja turen med biblioteket i Alexandria; det största biblioteket i världen – nu med 8 miljoner böcker. Besök president Sadat-museet och besök den öppna gården där du kan se statyn av Alexander den store och statyn av Ptolemaios den första, som hittades under vattnet i närheten. Vår guide kommer att förklara utformningen av biblioteket utifrån, du kommer att ha en chans till några fotostopp. Obs: Alexandrias bibliotek är stängt på fredagar, lördagar och allmänna helgdagar. För att komma in i läsområdet måste du köpa en biljett.
Besök insidan av katakomberna i Kom El Shokafa som är den största romerska kyrkogården som består av tre nivåer utskurna i klippan
Du kommer också att köra förbi Pompays pelare och stanna för ett fotostopp, (den byggdes för att hedra kejsar Diocletianus i slutet av 400-talet)
Besök den romerska amfiteatern i Alexandria med visningen av de sjunkna monumenten i Alexandria som upptäcktes under den östra hamnen i Alexandria.
Mittemot ligger corniche och den gamla hamnen där du kan se de gamla fiskebåtarna, män som fiskar och traditionella fiskare som gör nät. Bilderna som tas här är fantastiska. Fortsätt att se utsidan av slottet Quaitbay som byggdes på samma plats som den antika fyren i Alexandria, ett av antikens sju underverk. Ett högst spektakulärt slott som är ett bra fotostopp.
Njut av lunch på Sea View-restaurangen, vi tar dig tillbaka till ditt hotell i Kairo

Our Alexandria day tour was a gorgeous and chaotic and maybe sometimes uncomfortable anthropology lesson wrapped in ancient history. Honestly, our tour guide deserves a Nobel Peace Prize for navigating it with a smile. The sites themselves were stunning. We visited palaces, catacombs, churches, and the literal footprint of an ancient wonder, the former spot Alexandria Lighthouse, now down in the sea. The real wonder for me was how many micro-transactions one city can throw at you in a single day. Let’s be clear, the guide cannot control the tipping culture. But it’s over the top. We went from the bathroom attendants selling squares of toilet paper like they’re dealing high-stakes commodities to or the free mosque shoe storage that magically becomes a hostage negotiation. Egypt is operating in full survival mode, and tourists are the revenue stream. It’s not negativity; it’s reality, so be prepared! Future travelers should know that every greeting, gesture, or opened door comes with a hand extended for baksheesh (tipping). Once you understand that, the day makes a lot more sense: the hustle is simply part of the ecosystem. Our guide made the experience rich, informative, and incredibly smooth, but Alexandria itself is a place where you admire a 2,000-year-old artifact with one eye and keep the other on your wallet. Also, lunch is served at 3:00 PM, not at a normal time so you will be starving. Bring toilet paper and bring lots of snacks and water.
Feby , our Tour guide was Amazing & excellent , Loves her Job & very Passionate over Alexandria history , she took time w us knowing how we loved archeology & History . This tour was the Best we had in Egypt!!!
I did the Alexandria tour today with Mohammad Doma. Had a great timr with him. Although with bad weather, he was really accomodtaing. It felt like travelling with a close friend, not a tour guide. If I come ever come again ti Alexandria, will definitely book him again and see the beauty of this city.
I am very happy with Ramses Tours Kudos : 1. In first place the communication and booking with Ms Afaf Emad was very helpful, she contacted me either by email and on Whatsapp to ensure that I go the message, and she replied instantly to any question. 2. Then I met my guide for Alexandria Tour, Mr Karim Serry, who speaks fluent English and French. We visited famous spots in Alexandria (Montazah Park, Bibliotheca Alexandrina, Jewel Museum, Fort Qait Bey) and also the real life areas (Women Market, Souk, Citadel). Thanks Karim for showing the best of Alexandria
This was a solid trip and I would have rated it higher, however, it was billed as a bird tour and it most definitely was not. (Google birding trip Fayoum to see their description as Trip Advisor won't allow me to add the web address). We did this on 11/10/2018. The guide and driver were kind and helpful but they did not know birds or have any gear. Bring all your own optical gear and books/checklists. Also, you will likely need to tell the guides when you want to stop and look as they won't necessarily do that for you. So, I need to post to all the bird lovers out there that if you want a bird trip to Fayoum then you can do this one or you could look into just hiring a car and driver to take you to the big lake (Qarun). You do need to have a police escort depending on your passport. We are from the U.S. and needed a police escort the whole way. So, that might not be something you can organize yourself. The best birding was right where the road first comes close to the big lake on the way in on the right (before the left into the Tunis pottery neighborhood. You can walk onto the lake shore over some trash and dog poop, set up your scope or camera and get some great looks. Big flocks of overwintering waders, waterfowl, gulls, terns, etc. The Wadi El Rayyan had fewer birds but there were some flamingos, ducks, a few waders and grebes to the right of the boat launch as you walk down from the cafeteria. Great trip, friendly driver and guide but don't expect any help with the birds. Bird on!
