We booked an Alexandria day trip with Virtue Day Tours - We had a smooth 2.5 hour drive to Alexandria from Cairo
We were able to see 4 different sites in Alexandria Marwa was able to explain every site in detail, while also taking the time to buy us snacks and juice as we had skipped breakfast! She went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable on our trip, and even gave us a small souvenir when we were done I would strongly recommend that if you book through Virtue Day Tours, you ask for Marwa Galal as your guide
