The sightseeing tour is really cool! Something unique, full of history, things that are only in Alexandria and things that happened only in Alexandria. Our tour guide Sarah was very friendly. She knows a lot about Egypt and its stories. She answered every question and was very patient. She was also attentive to everything we needed. The driver was very friendly, always attentive, and very punctual!

Excellent day in Alexandria! Sarah was an excellent Spanish-speaking tour guide who explained in detail everything that the ancient relics hold. The coordinating tour guide, Taha, was very attentive and caring. He made us feel comfortable and safe throughout the trip, as did the driver, Sayed! 100% recommended. Thank you very much, guys.

We really appreciated this way of guiding the visit. The Catacombs of Kom el Shoqafa really impressed us with their beauty and atmosphere, as did the Citadel of Qaitbay, which was also spectacular for its location by the sea. The Column of Pompey and the Roman Amphitheater are interes
