Amazingly Excelent!! - The tour was amazing! The tour guide was very accomidating and full of information. I was allowed to change from seeing one site to one i prefered. I felt this was particularly genuine. The driver was amazing as well, given the hussle and bussle of the trafic he did such a great job in making you feel safe. All the sites were beyond what i expected and i was given a lot of free time to roam.
You can not tip the tour guide or the driver enough. The more the better as they deserve every penny and more.

Accommodating - Good day visit to Alexandria with tour guide Amr and driver Abdo. As solo female traveler, I felt safe in their care. They also accommodated my request to start later as my hotel breakfast was at 7AM and allowed me to amend part of the tour to suit my desire to skip a stop. Abdo drove fast but safely, and Amr made sure I enjoyed myself and took great pictures.
