The experience of my trip to Alexandria with your agency was great. I can't describe the beauty of the seascape and enjoy the taste of delicious seafood. Visiting the tombs of Kom Al-Shaqafa added a distinctive historical touch to the trip. Thanks for organizing the trip and providing an unforgettable experience.

Visiting Alexandria in Egypt was a mesmerizing experience, made even better by our guide, Ahmed. He expertly showcased all the beautiful sights, turning the trip into a memorable exploration. Highly recommend, especially with Ahmed as your guide.

Worse tour ever! Started off that they were late, excuse was that the driver was sleepy. The car was old, dirty and beat up. The three of us were cramped in the back for the more than 2 hours each way drive. The driver drove so fast while it was raining, that the car rattled. The worse part is that they never took us to the library, which is the main point of this tour. What a waste, because we traveled from USA to come here. My husband loves history and was looking forward to this vacation. However, this tour was a complete waste of our precious time here. Also, the fish house they took us to
