Great Alexandria tour from Cairo

Published on Apr, 2024

It was very family friendly tour with Zenab as out guide. We did enjoy every bit of it. Learning a lot about the Greek & Roman history of Egypt while exploring the Catacombs, Pompey's pillar. We learned about modern history through the New Library of Alexandria. Lunch was great overlooking the Mediterranean.

Great Tour of Alexandria

Published on Apr, 2024

This was a great tour. All of the sites were interesting, and our guide was great. He was very friendly, actually the friendliest guide that we had on our trip. He gave us plenty of time, answered all of our questions, and chose a great place for lunch with a view. I highly recommend using this guide.

Great Alexandria tour with Tree of life tours

Published on Apr, 2024

Stepping back in time of ancient conquerors and unrivalled knowledge, our private day trip to Alexandria was an experience draped in historical grandeur and Mediterranean charm. Led by the incredibly knowledgeable Zenab, our adventure rewound to the days of Alexander the Great. We descended into the Roman Catacombs, with its eerie chambers. Standing before the soaring Pompey's pillar, we were left awestruck. Yet, it was the disc - shaped marvel of the New Alexandria Library, that took our breath away. Amid these wonders, a delectable seafood lunch awaited us. Zenab's expertise shone brightest here, as she wove the city's past with its lively present. Highly recommend this tour for anyone seeking a taste of Egypt's historical treasures in a single, unforgettable day trip.

Amazing tour with Eslam in Alexandria

Eslam was a great tour guide!!His English is exceptional and his knowledge even better! He was always kind and answered all our questions, and believe me we asked a lot!He was kind and discrete at all times and very explanatory!The places he took us, from cafe to restaurant, were traditional with very tasty food and clean!He helped us with the pictures and the driver he had with him, was great under the circumstances as well!

Beautiful!

Published on May, 2023

Nor was an amazing tour guide! We booked with tree of life and he was so knowledgeable, ensured if we needed coffee or toilet stops we did, kept us on schedule without rushing, and made our Alexandria day trip so memorable. he ended up seeing us 3 days later at the airport and from kindness of his heart walked and helped us from Luxor arrivals back to Cairo departure when our own guide that day left us high and dry. Nor, you are wonderful - from Jemely and Jerry we appreciate you so!
