Good tour but time badly managed
We were met at the port right on time and had a comfortable van with an excellent driver who navigated thought the crazy traffic in Alexandria and Cairo. We visited the Cairo Museum, then went to a Papyrus store (which we did not know about and turned out to be a sales thing where we wasted much time) , then on to lunch in a restaurant which looked directly at the Sphinx and pyramids..had a good lunch (drinks not included.. oddly) and then we to go and see the pyramids….but they close at 5 and so due to poor time management on the part of our guide we almost missed seeing them and had time only to take a few pictures before they closed the park. When going to the pyramids the guide didn’t explain that if we wanted to go inside and climb to the top of the great pyramid it was a different ticket and more money ..we lost precious time going back and getting a new ticket. Time management was a big issue for us so recommend making sure you have time to visit the pyramids and the museum. The other issue we had was our guide who was good in that she had good info about the relics but it was difficult asking any questions beyond what she had learned for the tour. She did not manage our time well so that we would have enough at the pyramids which is the main reason for the tour.
Response from the operator: Thanks for your feedback, we will take all those notes into our consideration to avoid any negative feedback and we hope to see you soon in a long vacation in Egypt to enjoy your time :)

Classic Cairo: Pyramids & Egyptian Museum from Alexandria Port: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Alexandria.
How much does Classic Cairo: Pyramids & Egyptian Museum from Alexandria Port cost?
+
Prices start at $226 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 Classic Cairo: Pyramids & Egyptian Museum from Alexandria Port take?
+
Plan for about 12.8 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 Classic Cairo: Pyramids & Egyptian Museum from Alexandria Port worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 51 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3/5 across 1 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 Classic Cairo: Pyramids & Egyptian Museum 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 Classic Cairo: Pyramids & Egyptian Museum from Alexandria Port suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 12.8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Classic Cairo: Pyramids & Egyptian Museum 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 12.8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Classic Cairo: Pyramids & Egyptian Museum 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.
