5.00Outstanding Alexandria Adventure with Ehab Our tour with Ehab was simply awesome! He proved to be an excellent guide, ensuring our exploration of Alexandria was smooth and hassle-free. The lunch provided was excellent, and we appreciated the ample time given to enjoy our meal without feeling rushed. The only disappointment was missing out on visiting the library, which was closed due to Ramadan. Despite this, if you only have one day to spare, this tour is perfect for experiencing the highlights of Alexandria. Highly recommend!

5.00Five-Star Experience with Ehab in Alexandria I've awarded this tour 5 stars due to Ehab's exceptional guidance, ensuring we visited all the important sites while enriching our experience with insightful details and a lively demeanor. Despite being a long day, it's undoubtedly the best option if you have only one day to spend in Alexandria. However, it's worth noting that although we expected a private vehicle, we were part of a group in a mini-bus. This discrepancy was shared by at least one other member of our group. As for lunch, we recommend sticking to the standard booking, as the 'upgraded' option at the fish restaurant left us disappointed. Additionally, we advise taking this tour before exploring other sites in Cairo, Luxor, or Aswan.
Fantastic Adventures Await!
