Day-Trip to Alexandria from Cairo by Private Car

Our tour guide Reem was absolutely awesome she was informative and very professional. We saw the catacombs and ventured to the library of Alexandria . We also saw other sites along the tour. Reem was super personable as well. I'd highly recommend her in the future if ever taking a trip to Alexandria!!

Felt very much rushed. We didn't get the promised bottle of water so we had to buy. No biggie there. But the luch, which we paid with the booking, US$30, was terrible. All we got were two bowls of koshari (nornally street priced at us$1 or 2). We were asked to pay additional for anything more. The car has a nonfunctional front passenger seat belt. And back seats have no leg room because the both front seats for the driver and guide were pushed all the way back. This is for a ride about 8 hrs long.

Traveling from Cairo to Alexandria for a 1 day trip is just too short to see and take everything in that The great city has to offer!! Even leaving at 7am from Cairo, It takes basically 2.5-3 hrs each way - basically 6 hrs is gone traveling. Only a few hours left to do sightseeing and lunch. I felt very rushed in every place the guide took me to see and experience from Catacombs, Roman Amphitheatre, Fort by the Mediterranean Sea, lunch. I paid for the lunch included tour and was hoping to have a decent fish meal (Alexandria is known for) , instead was taken to a street food restaurant with ric

Viator arranged Tours Emo which is a great company. Omar at Emo kept us updated when the driver would be at hotel to pick up with pictures of the vehicle. It's a good vehicle with 3 rows of seating and 4 of us had plenty of room. It simply made things easier. Walid, the driver handled everything very well and we enjoyed his company. It's a wonderful experience to visit Alexandria and we had wonderful time with good company.

The guide was too good. So much knowledgeable and waa expalining us everything in detail. He was very generous and welcoming. He got us to very good place for lunch as well.

Very affable guide , comfortable journey and great place . We enjoyed the trip and had a great time..
