Our tour to Alexandria was super interesting! It was well planned and covered all the major attractions. Citadel of Qaitbay is the top attraction and you can explore it at lenght. It was a good choice to have a driver and guide just for ourselves so we could balance the time well. We could stay at each site for as long as we needed. Both, the guide (Mona) and the driver (Abdo) were amazing!
