Your ship is in Alexandria for two days, so this overnight tour gives you the full sweep, Cairo, Giza, and Alexandria, without racing back to the port each night. Day one drives to Cairo for the Giza Pyramids, the Sphinx, and the Egyptian Museum, then an overnight stay at a Cairo hotel. Day two works through Alexandria on the way back: the Catacombs of Kom el-Shoqafa, Qaitbay Citadel on the harbor, and Pompey's Pillar, before you reboard. Your private guide and driver handle every transfer and the timing around your ship. Two days, two cities, real time at each instead of one frantic dash inland. Ideal for cruise guests with an overnight in port who want both the pharaonic and Greco-Roman sides of Egypt.

2 Day Cairo and Alexandria Overnight from Alexandria Port: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Alexandria.
How much does 2 Day Cairo and Alexandria Overnight from Alexandria Port cost?
+
Prices start at $590 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Alexandria usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 2 Day Cairo and Alexandria Overnight from Alexandria Port take?
+
Plan for about 48 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Alexandria is not rushed.
Is 2 Day Cairo and Alexandria Overnight from Alexandria Port worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (0/5 across 0 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Alexandria, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 2 Day Cairo and Alexandria Overnight from Alexandria Port?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 2 Day Cairo and Alexandria Overnight from Alexandria Port suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 2 Day Cairo and Alexandria Overnight from Alexandria Port?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Alexandria can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Alexandria and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 2 Day Cairo and Alexandria Overnight from Alexandria Port start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Alexandria within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

+

The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Alexandria?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Alexandria?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
