• 5Day tour in Alexandria

  It was a fun day, probably better classified as a half day tour as we finished at 2.30 which we were happy with. Saw main sites and gave us an idea of Alexandria and it's history. Our guide was friendly and informative with a few laughs along the way. Highly recommend.

• 4El Alamein Day Tour

  I enjoyed the tour to El Alamein Military Museum and war cemeteries. Heba, my guide was good and provided a lot of relevant and useful information enroute and at each site. Since the journey takes about 3 hours, a tourist should get atleast 4 hours on site for the tour to be meaningful. A bottle of water should be provided on the tour. Some information by the guide on the historic battles of El Alamein in 1942-43 including participants, dates, places, outcomes would be a bonus. Use of a map would provide a better perspective.

• 5Heba and Mohamed Fathy made the best experience possible - just watch out for changes in a message from the company

  Heba and Mohamed Fathy were a dream team for a tour! Heba was so knowledgeable at every single site and floored me with her ability to make us excited at every site. She was able to connect different historical figures and sites together, she figured out our vibe fast and was just a joy to spend the day with. I truly felt at every location I was getting a story I would actually remember and be able to tell my friends about. In addition she gave us moments alone to enjoy the beauty of where we were, took incredible photos for us, and managed to find a restaurant to accommodate my husband and I’s different appetite as well as find a restaurant that had a view of Greek/Egyptian historical site AND a view of the sea! She was the best tour guide I’ve had in Egypt. Mohamed was also spectacular, gorgeous car, smooth driving, and even went and grabbed us water. He was awesome. My only complaint was with the booking company itself, they sent a bunch of long texts that contained a change in our tour time and never confirmed that I saw the change. They instead focused on trying to sell me a different service. But Heba and Mohamed were such a joy that by the time we got to the first site I completely forgot.

About Alexandria

Alexandria, Egypt's Mediterranean port, was founded by Alexander the Great and holds Roman ruins, a harbour fort and a modern library by the sea.

Alexander the Great founded the city in 331 BC, and for centuries it was the capital of Ptolemaic Egypt, with a great library and the Pharos, one of the seven wonders of the ancient world. The lighthouse fell to earthquakes, and the Citadel of Qaitbay, a fifteenth-century fort on its site, now guards the harbour mouth. The Corniche runs for miles along the bay in front of tall, weather-worn apartment blocks.

Top-ranked sights in Alexandria: Catacombs of Kom el Shoqafa, Roman Amphitheatre, Citadel of Qaitbay (Fort Qaitbey).
