Day trip to Alexandria Egypt from Cairo

Excellent day trip to Alexandria Egypt , visited numerous historic sites in the city with interesting input from our guide Rabab was, an excellent English speaker. We were pickup and dropped off at our hotel in Cairo as part of the package

Perfection

We planned to do some exploring and learning in Egypt during our first stay. We got very lucky as Shaimaa was an absolutely amazing instructor and guide during the tour. Very energetic and loving. Had funny jokes to break the ice and make you feel comfortable when asking questions. And I asked many dumb questions. We also got vip treatment with the driver Ahmed. He picked us up from Giza, drove us two and half hours to Alexandria, and all over the sites, then drove us another 2 and a half hours back to Giza. We slept on the ride home as we were exhausted. We had such a fun and enjoyable moment. Would recommend to request them when booking. You won’t regret it.

A day in Alexandria

Fantastic day in Alexandria with Shaimaa! She was knowledgeable, professional, always smiling and great fun to be with. Her explanations made the city and its history really come alive. A big thank you also to Ahmed, our driver from Cairo, for the smooth, comfortable and professional journey. Highly recommended!

Alexandria day trip

From pick up to the Ciaro airport to the drive to Alexandria and a ride back to Giza everything was incredible and seamless, I was able to see everything I wanted to and more with an incredibly kind, amazing super knowledgeable guide. Most definitely without a doubt in my mind this is an extremely well priced and thought out tour, it couldn’t have been better and I’ll forever cherish my memories. Felt like I had friends/family showing me around and they went above and beyond to make sure everything I wanted to do was accomplished. Thank you to the whole team very very much🙏

Private Alexandria Day Tour from Cairo with Lunch: questions travelers ask

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

How much does Private Alexandria Day Tour from Cairo with Lunch cost?

+

Prices start at $49 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cairo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

How long does Private Alexandria Day Tour from Cairo with Lunch take?

+

Plan for about 10 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 Cairo is not rushed.

Is Private Alexandria Day Tour from Cairo with Lunch worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 86 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 113 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cairo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Is Private Alexandria Day Tour from Cairo with Lunch suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 4. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 10-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Private Alexandria Day Tour from Cairo with Lunch?

+

Around 40 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 Cairo 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 Cairo and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Private Alexandria Day Tour from Cairo with Lunch 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 Cairo 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 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 Cairo?

+

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 Cairo?

+

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.
