Unforgettable Day Trip to Alexandria with the Best Guide! - Our day trip from Cairo to Alexandria was absolutely fantastic! The transportation was comfortable and well organized, making the journey easy and stress-free. Once we arrived in Alexandria, our guide Toha made the experience truly special. He is incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and enthusiastic, bringing the city’s history and beauty to life. We got to see all the wonders of Alexandria — from its ancient heritage to its breathtaking seaside views. On top of that, Toha took amazing photos of us throughout the trip, capturing memories we will treasure forever. This excursion exceeded our expectations in every way. If you are visiting Egypt, a trip to Alexandria with Toha as your guide is a must! 🌟

Excellent - Our guide in Spanish was Ahmed elsawy, he had patience so that we could take pictures in each place, he explained and delved into the "Egyptian world". That made everything more wonderful.

Overall would highly recommend if you like Greek/Roman history and are looking for a day trip idea from Cairo - Great tour, you get to see a lot of history especially Greek/Roman history so if you are interested would highly recommend! My guide was Eriny and she was an excellent guide, provided a lot of history and plus knows some hieroglyphics which is a plus! My favorite spots were seeing the library of Alexandria and the Roman Theater. In both spots you get a guided tour and then are allowed some personal time to explore on your own Overall would highly recommend if you like Greek/Roman history and are looking for a day trip idea from Cairo
