I was worried about the long day, but Yasser made it feel effortless. He has a great sense of humor and kept us entertained with stories about Alexander the Great and Cleopatra throughout the tour. The Library is a must-see, and Yasser ensured we had enough time to explore everything without feeling rushed. Highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting Egypt!

Everything was exceptionally well-organized. The drive from Cairo was smooth and the van was very comfortable. Yasser is a fantastic guide—professional, punctual, and very friendly. The highlight for us (besides the Library of Alexandria) was the incredible seafood lunch overlooking the sea that Yasser recommended. If you want a stress-free trip to Alexandria, book this!

Leaving the chaos of Cairo for a day to see the Mediterranean charm of Alexandria was the best decision we made. Our guide, Yasser, was a font of knowledge. He made the Catacombs and the Citadel of Qaitbay feel like scenes from a history book. He knows the city’s secrets and pointed out things we would have never noticed on our own. An absolute 5-star experience!
