Great tour of Alexandria
Karim was a great guide! He showed us many sites throughout the city and was funny and knowledgeable. He made us feel very welcome and safe. Great way to spend our day in the city.

The best way to see Alexandria
Our tour guide Heba was super knowledgeable and kind. We had a great driver pick us up right outside of the city. He was also very considerate when driving. The company was very responsive and easy to communicate with. Everything was excellent. We’d definitely book with them again.

Alexandria Places & People
We toured “backwards” avoiding all crowds from the cruise ships; we were able to have the historic sites basically to ourselves. Karim was very knowledgeable and showed us not only the most visited sites but also the city itself and the people who live in Alexandria. We really got a feel for this ancient, vibrant city.

Safe and individual city tour
Individual, safe and clean English tour, but possible in German or French Meeting point at the port entrance Rasha and Kareem guided us (couple) through the city of Alexandria, a city between modern times and breakdown. Pre conversation via WhatsApp to fix all questions

alexandria full day tour
memorable parts: catacombs--most fascinating for their extent and difficulty of execution; bibleoteca alexandrina(library of alexandria); citadel of qeitbay rasha was more than a competent guide. she was very cooperative, accommodating, knowledgeable, and very personable. her language skills in english were very good. her choice of a restaurant on the corniche, branzino, was much appreciated. her planning and coordinating our site schedule was great. vehicle and driver were excellent. we have been to 119 countries and value our guides. rasha was one of the best. larry and cheryl

Fabulous tour of Alexandria’s many highlights!
Our tour guide, Rasha, was an excellent guide for our first full day in Alexandria! She took us to all the important sites and thoroughly explained the history and meaning behind each site. Absolutely fascinating! We started with the catacombs, then Pompey’s Pillar, moving on to the Roman amphitheater, library of Alexandria, St Mark’s cathedral, the Citadel fortress, and Abu al-Abbas Mosque. Rasha was the perfect guide to explain all the intricate history! And our driver was excellent at navigating all the traffic in the city. A most wonderful day!!

Wonderful Tour! Library is not open on Friday!
I left a longer more detailed review on TripAdvisor but, I booked on viator so I guess that's why they're asking me to leave one here. It was a wonderful tour. It takes you to everything you want to see in Alexandria. My guides Rasha and Karim were excellent and genuinely cared that we had a great time and enjoyed the tour. The only downfall for us was the library is closed on Friday, and we had to leave early Saturday morning. So, we didn't get to see TripAdvisor's number one recommended attraction in Alexandria and I feel I need to go back to specifically to see it. What really stung is we were there four days before the tour and could have went on our own had we known. So if you're doing this tour on a Friday, be sure to see the library on your own a different day. Especially if you're leaving Saturday morning lol!
