Overview
A full-day private tour from Cairo to Alexandria — 12 to 13 hours door to door, just your group, no strangers. Your driver picks you up from your Cairo or Giza hotel at 7:00–7:30am and drives to Alexandria (around 2.5–3 hours). Your licensed Egyptologist guide meets you there and leads you through the Catacombs of Kom el Shoqafa, Pompey's Pillar, the Ancient Roman Amphitheater, Qaitbay Citadel, and Bibliotheca Alexandrina — all the major sites, with no rushed schedule. Private vehicle and professional guide throughout. No shared buses, no waiting for other travelers. Good for families, couples, and small groups who want Alexandria done properly. Optional lunch stop available (not included in base price). You're back in Cairo by early evening. Note: Bibliotheca Alexandrina is closed on Fridays — exterior visit only on that day.
Pickup Information
Free pickup from Cairo & Giza hotels. Extra charge applies for airport, New Cairo, Heliopolis, 6th October, New Giza, Sphinx Airport, and New Capital (depends on distance).
