Private Alexandria Day Trip from Cairo

I had a great time got picked up on time and I was running a bit late but thankfully it was all okay! Got to see all of Alexandria with Mohammed i believe. Im horrible at names! He showed me around with catacombs the old bath houses and of course where the mainline house used to be. Plus the beautiful mosque we made it right before prayer which was a cool site to see! Lunch was great with a great view and slept on the way back bc I was so exhausted after the 4 days in Ciaro. Thank you again for everything!

I had a wonderful day tour to Alexandria from Cairo, and overall it was a very positive experience. The tour guide, a lady, was absolutely amazing. She provided me with so many detailed explanations about the beautiful city, sharing anecdotes, historical background, and valuable local knowledge. She is truly wonderful, extremely knowledgeable, and very caring toward tourists. Thanks to her passion and attention, Alexandria came to life in a very special way. The driver was friendly and polite; however, there are two aspects I did not appreciate. Unfortunately, the driver could not speak English, which made communication difficult at times. In addition, I felt uncomfortable because he was filming me while I was in the car, and I was not informed of the reason for this. Despite these points, the tour itself was excellent and very well organized, and the tour guide made the experience truly memorable. I would still highly recommend this day tour.

This was an excellent tour to Alexandria so professional run, would highly recommend Emo Tours. Our driver, Waleed, was excellent pointing out things along the way, making a huge effort to talk to use using a phone translator. Our female guide, Cherie was also excellent she really knew all the relevant information about the sites. She organised us an upgraded lunch on the waterfront which was excellent. Just a really enjoyable day, although it is a long drive Cairo

It was good but not even close to visiting the pyramids and sphinx etc. our driver was excellent but the guide was ok. The lunch included in the tour the KYC hero which is the national Egyptian didh was ok but perhaps we needed some other choice as well rather than one dish. The highlight was the castle built on the edge of Mediterranean Sea with spectacular views

My wife & I booked this private Alexandria tour expecting a seamless, personalized experience based on the itinerary, but unfortunately it fell short in several key areas. To start, the transportation did not meet expectations for a long 3-hour drive from Cairo. The vehicle seats were covered in dusty plastic wrapping, which ended up dirtying my white shorts. This is definitely not what you’d expect from a “private tour” experience. Things became more frustrating upon arrival in Alexandria. When we met our guide, we were informed, without any prior notice, that another person would be joining our “private” tour. This completely contradicted what was advertised and paid for. Not only did this diminish the private experience, but it also introduced unnecessary delays. The additional guest got lost and was over 15 minutes late to the meeting point at the Citadel of Qaitbay, and then required extra stops which disrupted the flow of the day. The itinerary itself was also impacted. Because the additional person’s tour package did not include lunch and entry fees, our schedule was rearranged to accommodate them. We had to wait upon arrival to some stops for the additional guest to purchase their tickets and Instead of breaking up the day with a meal as expected, lunch was pushed to the very end after all tour stops to accommodate them. After a long day of travel and sightseeing, this made the experience unnecessarily exhausting. While the sites themselves were impressive and worth seeing, the execution of the tour did not align with what was advertised. A private tour should mean just that; private, well-organized, and tailored to the group that booked it. Unfortunately, the lack of communication, added guest, and logistical issues made this a disappointing experience overall.
