Perfect tour to visit Alexandria - I was the only person booked the tour for that day, so it became a private tour without being cancelled. The tour was amazing to visit Alexandria in a day. The driver was super kind and the tour guide was very knowledgeable. I have truly enjoyed the tour and highly recommend it!

Amazing history and architecture - We had a lovely time in Alexandria seeing the amazing architectural and historical traces of different civilisations: the Catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa, the Roman amphitheatre of Kom El-Deka, Pompey's Pillar and the Citadel of Qaitbay. Our guide, Ayman, is a unique character with so much experience and charisma. He impressed us with his wittiness, knowledge and great voice. We thank Ayman and our driver Mohammed for making our trip enjoyable and safe.

lovey day out - We had an amazing time with Sam (driver) and Aymen. Both were so knowledgeable especially Aymen. He was very good at explaining things. We could see he is so passionate about alexandria and Egypt. He answered all my questions well. We really felt at home with both of them and felt welcomed. My mum has mobility issues and Aymen really catered to that and helped her. Alexandria was beautiful and it was a lovely tour - highly recommend as a day trip. Thank you for a beautiful day

A Pleasant Visit to Alexandria - Had a great time on this day trip. Was a good way to get out of Cairo and see another city in Egypt. The drive was long, but I was grouped with two other friendly travelers, so we spent the ride to Alexandria chatting. Once in Alexandria, we had a wonderful guide named Aman, who was knowledgeable and entertaining. Saw some great sites and learned quite a bit about the history of Alexandria. After a jam-packed day, our driver promptly drove us home while we all slept. Overall, a memorable experience.

Alejandria - The Alexandria tour let us down a bit about the expectations we had. The Guide was correct, and provided us with different interesting facts about the site. We would like to make special mention of our driver Belii. Always with a smile, super nice and watchful that we were comfortable on all the routes. We even prepared a music list for our trip. A love of person.
