A fantastic trip to Alexandria and Siwa Oasis - We had an unforgettable experience with Sun Pyramids Tours on a two-part journey through Egypt. The trip was flawlessly organized from airport pickup to the final drop-off. Part 1: Alexandria Day Tour – Our guide Sam was a fantastic Egyptologist who brought the city’s rich history to life. We explored the Catacombs of Kom el Shoqafa, Pompey’s Pillar, Qaitbay Citadel, and the stunning Bibliotheca Alexandrina. Sam’s knowledge and passion made every stop engaging and insightful. Part 2: 4D3N Siwa Oasis Adventure – This was the highlight of our trip. Our guide Mohad was exceptional—warm, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable. He went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable, well-fed, and immersed in local culture. He even helped capture amazing photos along the way! Our driver Mr. Samir was calm, kind, and made us feel safe throughout the long drives. In the Great Sand Sea, Mohad arranged for Nasser, “The Commander of the Desert,” to be our 4x4 driver—his skills navigating the towering dunes were jaw-dropping! Highlights included the Alamein Military Museum, Siwa Salt Lake, ancient Shali fortress, Temple of the Oracle, and Mountain of the Dead. Mohad also took us to try local delicacies and shop for authentic Siwan products like dates and hibiscus tea. Highly recommend Sun Pyramids Tours for anyone looking for a well-curated, personal, and memorable Egyptian adventure!
