5.00This trip to Alexandria was really amazing. I’ve never seen the Mediterranean Sea, so the beauty of the water impressed me. Also, I went to some historical places such as library, catacombe and great museum in Alexandria. The guide is super super nice guy and made me happy and smile. He made my day! Thank you😁😁😁
Great time with Soha and Khaled

5.00Happy with this tour, glad I chose it over others. I researched a lot and this one had the best reviews and I could see why. We got picked up from our hotel at 8 in the morning and we got to Alexandria at around 11. We met Soha there, our guide who is like a walking encyclopaedia when it comes to Egyptian history. We learned a lot, had a nice lunch and generally had a good time. Khaled drove us back to Cairo and he somehow made us feel safe in that car, although the traffic in Cairo is something completely insane, complete madness, I don’t know how he did it.
