We had a great experience in our trip to Alexandria. Our guide, Mohamed was very helpful and answered our many questions. The trip was well organized and we enjoyed seeing each site. We particularly liked the catacombs and our time at the new library. Thanks for a great day in Alexandria!

We had a fantastic day! The guide and driver were on time, and we were even surprised to have a private car despite having booked a small group tour. Our guide, Karim, was wonderful; he provided us with lots of information in excellent French and was very warm and welcoming to the children! The lunch included in the tour was delicious. We highly recommend this experience!

We organised a trip from Alexandria to see German, Italian and Commonwealth war cemeteries and museum in El Alamein. Our guide, Mohammed, was excellent. He had a great sense of humour and fluent English, with lots of interesting facts which informed our visit. We were able to go inside the German and Italian buildings, to fully appreciate losses on all sides.

The guide was very friendly and well-informed. We ate very well and really enjoyed our visit to the city. A highly recommended experience.

The tour guide is nice and well explained. The car was so rotten, worn and old that there was no room for feet. Because it was a long distance, more than six hours back and forth, very uncomfortable, nine people crammed into such a small van that the seats were too spaced apart to move their feet. The beachside restaurant for lunch is very good, the location is also good, grilled fish rice is delicious, recommended.

Of the available options, we chose the German-speaking Guide + Ride & Entrances. At the pick-up it was then said the guide will join in Alexandria. There was only one English-speaking guide who told us there is no German guide, we are supposed to listen to the audio guide we got via mail. This cheaper option was also not possible because we did not receive any mail (nothing in the spam folder either). My company can't speak English. The guide can't help us. (Can't the guide help it) So annoyed asked for a refund of the guide in retrospect and were willing to pay for travel and admissions without compensation and ticking off the topic quickly. This more than fair offer on our part was rejected by the organizer, but the driver asked meticulously for tips and stood in our way as we wanted to leave the vehicle.
