Great historical trip
Great 4,5h trip around beautiful Alexandria for all the highlights: different time-periods, different types of locations: from Roman catacomb graves and medieval fortress to the new Greek Poet Cavafis museum and the ultra modern library. Dina is a perfect guide, very knowledgeable and responsive

Excellent private tour of Alexandria
We booked this private tour of five of Alexandria"s highlights as it offered more of what we wanted to see and at a far lower price than anything offered by the cruise company we were travelling with (about half the price!). Communication prior to and during the tour was excellent, with Mirette staff even ringing us to make sure we had met with our guide, Haggag (we had to walk over the bridge from the cruise port to meet Haggag - about a 15 minute walk ftom the ship in total - the excursions booked through the cruise company leave from right outside the ship, but that is chaos with many vehicles being stuck in traffic jams for ages). We saw the Citadel, library, ancient roman amphitheatre, catacombs and the coptic church. Haggag was great at explaining the history behind the sights, and was able to answer all of our questions. The tour also included a private tour of the library provided by a library volunteer, Maria, who was also excellent. We never felt rushed and were able to take things at our own pace. We felt we definitely benefited from having our own guide rather than being part of a large group tour. The tour felt like real value for money and we would highly recommend it. Would not recommend trying to find your own way around Alexandria, especially if you are time limited - the roads have to be seen to be believed! So grateful for our driver for getting us round safely.
Response from the operator: Thanks deeply our valued guest for your nice detailed review . We are glad that you had nice day with us . Hope to see you soon in Egypt again with Mirette Tours !

Comprehensive review absolutely necessary driving
The tour included a stop at all of the important historical sites plus the library of alexandria. With the way Egyptians drive is absolutely 100% necessary to hire someone to do the driving for you around the town. This company did a good job and the driver and guide Mohammad were both excellent
Response from the operator: Thanks alot dear valued guest for your kind words ! We are really glad that you enjoyed your day with us . Hope to see you again in Egypt with us :)

Why this scores 76
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Mirette Tour in Alexandria from Alexandria hotels and Alexandria Port: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Alexandria.
How much does Mirette Tour in Alexandria from Alexandria hotels and Alexandria Port cost?
+
Prices start at $55 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 Mirette Tour in Alexandria from Alexandria hotels and Alexandria Port take?
+
Plan for about 6 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 Mirette Tour in Alexandria from Alexandria hotels and Alexandria Port worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 76 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 43 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 Mirette Tour in Alexandria from Alexandria hotels and 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 Mirette Tour in Alexandria from Alexandria hotels and Alexandria Port suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 1. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 6-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Mirette Tour in Alexandria from Alexandria hotels and Alexandria Port?
+
Around 15 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 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Mirette Tour in Alexandria from Alexandria hotels and 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 Half Day Giza Pyramids and Sphinx, Alexandria Full Day Tour, 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.
