Our tour guide Menna taught us a lot about the historical landmarks of Alexandria, and she was very kind and easy to understand. I recommend this tour to anyone looking to learn about Alexandria and most importantly have fun!

Excellent day trip to Alexandria. Our tour guide Wael was very informative regarding the history of Alexandria. I would highly recommend this trip.

Having a personal guide (Ola) who was also a great photographer and a competent driver (Omar) was a plus it made this trip a fun one!

She also volunteered to
