    Had a great day in Alexandria with tour guide Rasha

    Rasha was an excellent tour guide, very knowledgeable and at the same time gave us options on what to visit. She helped us buying a special blend of Turkish coffee at the Brazilian coffee shop. 😁 If I come back to Alexandria, I will book a tour with her again. Maria

    Response from the operator: Thanks Maria for the positive feedback. Appreciated!

    Lovely foodies tour!

    Karim took me on a tour through Downtown on a Friday evening. We tasted lovely food at different local favourite restaurants. We looked at the sights on the way. Ice cream and lovely warm desserts followed, inbetween we walked the buzzling souq markets, looked at people shopping for clothes and toys and jewellery and veggies and fish. A real Alexandrian immersion! Karim has a lovely sense of humour and explains the local ways very nicely. I had a great time snd am looking forward to doing other tours with him when visiting Alexandria next time. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 stars for sure!

    Response from the operator: Thanks for the feedback Appreciated!

    Day Tour of Alexandria, Egypt with Mahmoud

    We booked directly with Ramasside tours. Pick up at our hotel. Mahmoud was our guide for the day. We visited all the wonderful sights of Alexandria. Mahmoud's knowledge on the history of Egypt is exceptional. He is also an archaeologist and having his explanation to the diggings of the sites is wonderful. Thanks so much for an interesting day in Alexandria. Highly rate Mahmoud as an expert guide.

    Response from the operator: Your feedback is appreciated! Thanks!

    A tour with Heba in Alex!

    A really great experience with Heba - I described in advance what I was looking for and I got that and more. You meet a guide at the beginning and you leave having developed a friendship. I’m a photographer so I was looking for angles and views and different things happening. Highly recommend this. You’ll know Alexandria so well ::)

    Response from the operator: Thanks a lot for your valued feedback. Appreciated!

    Alexandria Full Day Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Alexandria.

    How much does Alexandria Full Day Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $65 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 Alexandria Full Day Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 5 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 Alexandria Full Day Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 88 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 220 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Alexandria, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Alexandria Full Day Tour?

    +

    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 Alexandria Full Day Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Alexandria Full Day Tour?

    +

    Around 77 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 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Alexandria Full Day Tour 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.

    What are the best things to do in Alexandria?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Alexandria experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Alexandria Full Day Trip, All inclusive private Giza pyramids,Sphinx & highlights of Cairo, Half Day Giza Pyramids and Sphinx. 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.

    What is included in Alexandria Full Day Tour?

Not included: Lunch; Any extras not mentioned in the program; Tipping Kitty; and Entrance fees to places visited are by Visa Card. No cash is used. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    +
