    2 days in Egypt via a cruise

    We were picked up at the cruise port, unfortunately no one communicated how far we had to walk with our bags to get out of the port, as they would not allow tour operators in. We then drove to Giza, picked up the guide, as she was not with the driver. We then headed to the pyramids, it was one fantastic wonder after another. We had lunch at 5pm, the restaurant was very good but we were rushed out for a wedding at 6pm. Other than a few "glitches" , the tour was fantastic. Our guide was very knowledgeable and our driver was fantastic!! We stayed at Tolip hotel which was gorgeous in new Cairo. I highly recommend, we had a great time and would do it again!!!

    Over night Cairo tour / bad taste!

    I am writing to express my disappointment with the Cairo overnight tour we recently took. Despite the promising itinerary, we encountered several issues during the trip. The lack of lunches provided, absence of water on an 8-hour tour, and unsanitary conditions on the Nile dinner cruise were major letdowns. While the hotel accommodations were satisfactory, the language barrier with our tour guide made it challenging to fully appreciate the experience. We requested a 15% discount to compensate for the shortcomings, but unfortunately, our request was denied. Overall, I would caution others against booking this tour due to the subpar experience we had.

    Our driver was excellent...

    Our driver was excellent and did a wonderful job throughout our 2 day tour. Our guide had a fantastic knowledge of the history…but he spoke too fast and walked too fast. We felt that he didn’t explain the procedure that would occur at the pyramids (camels rides etc) which disappointed us. Also we were not happy about all the side trips to carpet shops etc.

    All the best of Cairo in two days

    Walid the guide and Rashad the driver were excellent. They were able to pack all the best of Cairo in our two day port time. Walid is a fountain of Egyptian knowledge. The places we visited for quality shopping were great: carpets, papyrus, and essential oils.

    Overnight Trip To Cairo from Alexandria Port: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Overnight Trip To Cairo from Alexandria Port cost?

    +

    Prices start at $258 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 Overnight Trip To Cairo 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 Overnight Trip To Cairo from Alexandria Port worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 5 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 Overnight Trip To Cairo 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 Overnight Trip To Cairo 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 Overnight Trip To Cairo 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 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Overnight Trip To Cairo 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.
