My driver Khaled Mustafa is a fantastic young gentleman. He showed me the most beautiful parts of Alexandria, with very joyful and fun loving attitude. Even the music he picked are very pleasant. Having him as my driver really made the day trip very enjoyable. I highly recommend him. Thanks! Khaled!

Thank you to Hamed for a fantastic day out in Alexandria. He arrived to collect us on time and looked after us all day. We did everything we wanted to do plus a little more, and he drove us safely all day. The car was comfortable and he speaks good English. I would highly recommend a tour with him if you get the opportunity. A perfect day out, thank you!!

While it was a long travel day, the tour company was very accommodating to my flight delay in the morning and the driver and guide (Reem) were fantastic and very knowledgeable. I especially appreciated having a female tour guide with a lot of interesting insides into the local culture.

First, the driver and guide were great and we don’t blame them in any way for our experience but I feel this tour should come with a massive warning. Due to weather conditions, the road to Alexandria was closed. We were in stationary traffic for over 2 hours. The drive in total to get to the first stop took 6 hours. I appreciate weather is outside of the tour providers control but it was made worse by (a) the driver being unable to speak English so could not explain the delay to us; and (b) the guide advising us that this time of year, the road closes on average once per week - meaning the pro

Amazing day out. We were picked up promptly by our driver and taken to Alexandria where we were met by our guide. She was very good- friendly, knowledgeable, able to arrange lunch for us at a good price. We went to the catacombs, the Roman theatre, the library, the mosque, and the Citadel. Fantastic places to see and visit, we got some lovely photos, and we were returned to our accommodation by about 6.30pm. Would definitely recommend.
