This tour is highly recommended for a day trip from Cairo, as Alexandria used to be the capital of Egypt once. This place oozes history and culture and it's a must, especially if you're coming from Greece. Starting the day, Mohammed and our driver were very kind to pick us up from our hotel. The transportation van is clean and big enough for our small group. When we reached Alexandria, we met with our guide, Manal Atef, who's seriously amazing. First of all, she's very kind and friendly. She was eager to explain to us the history behind the catacombs etc and she answered all of our questions. She's very knowledgeable and seems passionate about her job. All in all, this was a great experience I'll remember forever.

If you get Kholoud as your guide you will have a wondrous time. She is one of the most knowledgeable people I’ve ever met and knows anything and everything about Egypt. You will leave 10 times smarter!! Incredibly fun day in Alexandria with great food too

Sherif and the driver were very nice and friendly. Sherif knows all the history behind every place in Alexandria, he was very patient and very kind. He even took photos of us without hesitation.

If you like history, this is a must do. Alexandria is a nice port town on the Mediterranean with great Roman history. Soha was an excellent guide. Her English was fantastic and she was an excellent story teller with a lot of enthusiasm.

The trip to Alexandria was amazing! Saw the most notable sites, among which Citadel Quaitbay and Catacombs, where we were accompanied by our guide Ayman (very knowledgeable not only about history of Alexandria but in general) and fantastic driver Mohammed.
