Today Roma took me to Alexandria and gave the best tour ever. She is very knowledgeable and the way she describes the stories will really have you intrigued. As we walk through the catacombs I definitely felt like I was in the ancient time, listening to her words about Greece and Egypt. We even drove past the Mediterranean Sea to get to the castle and that was beautiful. We got done a little early and she even took me to go shopping at a few places that were specifically authentic Egypt places. I so appreciate her and all of her effort that she put into makeing a great day in Alexandria and Cairo. Oh yeah Mohammadgot me and her some falafel sandwiches in Alexandria that were to die for yummy. Do not hesitate to book this excursion if you are trying to get away from the busy life of Cairo. Besides, who comes to Egypt to only learn about one city when there are so many more. And the driver, Mohammed is so respectful and a nice guy and he's a great driver, especially with the hustle and bustle of Egypt Roads. Overall, a great day with both of them and I would definitely do it again if I came back to Egypt..
From the moment of pick up from my B&B by Mohammad and Rahma from Amon Ra Tours, my journey to Alexandria became magical. The warmth and hospitality of both driver and guide were more than expected. I felt safe, welcomed, and part of an amazing adventure. Even though Rahma had done this trip so many times, I felt her excitement in showing me this city filled with history and splendour. Her knowledge of the sites we visited filled me with awe and took me back in time. This trip with Amon Ra Tours is an absolute must on your "Bucket List"
“My mom and I only did 2 1/2 days in Cairo and we used one of them to take this tour and it was definitely worth it! Our driver (Mohamed) was safe and quick and our guide (Hima) was knowledgeable and friendly. As two women touring alone we felt perfectly safe the entire time, even when an unforseeable car issue derailed our drive back to Cairo for a little bit. One thing I really appreciated was the communication leading up to the trip - the tour manager, guide, and driver all reached out via text so we never felt like we didn't know what was going on. We learned so much about an awesome ancient city and had a great day. Definitely recommend!”
The driver picked me up from my place in Cairo in a car with AC and took me to Alexandria, where we met up with the guide. There, he took me to the catacombes, theatre and citadel, where he told me their history in great detail. At the end, we went to the fish market, where he had a great lunch.
Amon Ra Tours has a really good team. I really recommend. You can go eyes close with them. Really nice people. They will give you the best experience
My day in Alexandria through Amon Ra tours was great! Wonderful security, great tour guide who is a pro at what he does. He is very time efficient and has a great agenda set up. Does a wonderful job in ensuring the group is together and is moving according to schedule. Would highly recommend
It was such a nice exploring Alexandria. We got to see some beautiful things with a very knowledgeable tour guide. I would recommend this tour to anyone who will be visiting Egypt.
My expérience was super amazing and out of this world. My guide Eslam is very knowledgeable and a great story teller who has a passion for his work. The service given was above what was requested as I had the privilege of being taking to shops that only an experienced local would know. In addition Eslam was open and it felt like a personally curated experience Thank you soo Much Mido and Eslam 💛💛💛💛
