Tour of Alexandria, Egypt
This was a wonderful additional tour to our time in Egypt. Adam, our guide, was excellent and knowledgeable. We were a little confused as our bus driver was an hour late and did not speak English. And Adam did not join our group until we reached the other side of Cairo. But everything worked out. And it was safe and very interesting. Our bus driver was amazing, because I could never drive in all of that traffic. I also appreciated the fact that he drove right up to the sites which meant we didn’t have to do a lot of walking on our last day in Egypt. This company did a good job for us. Thank you!!
Response from the operator: Dear kearstinr Thank you very much for your great support and great review .we are happy you had a nice day the beautiful city of Alexandria. we are very sorry about the delaying of the driver. it seems that he though that Pick up time at 08:00 and not 07:00 we are happy that you are able to see all attractions in Alexanderia and the guide did a great Job Best Regards Ahmed

Fantastic Cairo Trip with Mark and Ahmed of Masala Alam Tours
Really enjoyed our private tour in Cairo from Alexandria port. Our driver Mark was very nice and friendly. It was a 3 hour drive from Alexandria to Cairo and he was very attentive and safe on the road. Then we met our English speaking guide Ahmed and he was very knowledgeable and brought us to areas worth seeing. I highly recommend the partnership of Mark and Ahmed.

Cairo...The Pyramids and Tutankhamen in a day
We booked this trip as we were in Alexandria overnight on a Cruise. As it turned out we were the only two on the trip so had a minibus to ourselves. Mohammed our Tour Manager was great. Was good to understand the situation in Egypt for people. The tour guide in Cairo explained what things were then gave us time to explore alone. As we were the only two we decided not to do the papyrus institute/bazaar which wasn't an issue. Water and snacks also provided and the trip was half of the price the cruise company wanted. Recommended although be warned its a long day which you need to be able to cope with if you are a little older

Best tour of Pyramids and Cairo
Mr Achmed is truely the best driver in Cairo, he zoomed us all day in air conditioned comfort. Mohammed was a great communicator and we found him no problem when we left the ship, he was always checking on us with water and toilet breaks. Mr Haney was an informative guide for all historical sites.

Book this tour!
I can’t say enough good things about this company! When my reservation with a different company got inexplicably cancelled, this company booked us at the last minute, accommodated our time frame and handled us with expert flair. Our guide, Adam, is an Egyptologist and provided so much information about the history of Egypt and the details of the pyramids. My travel partner and I both have mobility issues and Adam navigated us through the pyramids and city in a way that we both could not only do, but really enjoy. We also really enjoyed the Papyrus store and demonstration. I never write reviews, but this company really deserved one from me. The owner, Ahmed, stayed in contact with us throughout the trip, and our driver, Mena, was an expert! They all very much deserve my 5 star review.
Response from the operator: Dear Sharon, Thank you so much for your great review and feedback after your amazing Cairo day tour from Alexandria Port. We are so happy that you had a great experience with us. We look forward to seeing you again next year with us for more great experiences Best regards Rana

Cairo day tour from Alexandria Port: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Alexandria.
How much does Cairo day tour from Alexandria Port cost?
+
Prices start at $194 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 Cairo day tour from Alexandria Port take?
+
Plan for about 12 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 Cairo day tour from Alexandria Port worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 6 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 Cairo day tour 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 Cairo day tour from Alexandria Port suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 12-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Cairo day tour from Alexandria Port?
+
Around 2 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 12-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Cairo day tour 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.
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 Tour, Alexandria Full Day Trip, All inclusive private Giza pyramids,Sphinx & highlights of Cairo. 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.

+
Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 3 listed pickup locations in and around Alexandria.
