Great little day trip from Cairo

Published on Sep, 2024

The whole experience was exceptional starting with my dealings the Mariem, the travel consultant who was very helpful in every aspect. The day started from the hotel with Mr Aref, the driver, who took me to Alexandria where I hooked up with Mrs. Wesam, the tour guide. Both very friendly and knowledgeable. The tour took me to all the sites listed, however, the library itself was closed so could only stand on the street out front. My fault I didn't check that on Fridays it closes for maintenance. However, we did go to the Citadel for some time, then had a tremendous lunch right across the street at a local establishment. Highly recommend this tour to anyone interested ... just be aware the library is closed Fridays.

Outstanding experience highly recommend!

I booked the tour last minute , Mahmoud was very friendly and make sure that everything is good before traveling to Alxandaria. Our guide Hamda was very professional and made sure we are comfortable during the trip. Finally we met our guide Wessam she is do kind , knowledgeable and friendly. We booked the tour with option the food tour. Our operator Yoma asked us if we prefer sea food or local Alxandarian food , we chose the local one and we didn't regret anymore. We tried the falafel , Shawarma and Koshary and for desert rice with milk was very testy Infront of Cournih. If you didn't visit Alxandaria with this company you definitely missed alot of fun! I definitely will come again with my mom next year.

An Excellent Experience with a professional company.
