Wonderful, passionate Feby

Published on Dec, 2024

This was our second successful trip with lovely Feby as our guide. We were picked up early from the hotel in Giza and safely driven to Alexandria with a stop along the way to buy coffee, croissants and have use of the facilities. Alexandria is Feby’s home town and her passion for the area is very evident. We visited the catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa which are considered to be one of the Seven Wonders of the Middle Ages followed by the Roman Amphitheater, library and the Citadel. Feby introduced my husband and I to the local delicacy of liver sandwiches We also enjoyed rice pudding with ice cream, nuts and honey at a seafront cafe. The trip was well worth it just for this experience as we would never have found these places. Feby is a passionate, friendly, lady who excels as a tour guide. She is extremely knowledgeable and her enthusiasm is wonderful to experience. I would recommend Feby in a heartbeat, as our trips with her will always be one of our highlights of visiting Egypt.

The best tour of your trip! (By far!)

Published on Nov, 2024

There is something particularly special about learning about a place from someone who grew up there. Not only did Febe grow up in Alexandria she lives and breaths it, Febe and Alexandria love each other! Everywhere we went she knew all the little pieces of history you wouldn't even think to ask about and all the best food you wouldn't think to try! Febe is a story teller and has a way of connecting the centuries of history here in a way that is clear, interesting and humanizing to the people that lived it. On top of all that when a member of our party wasn't feeling well, Febe went well out of her way to insure he got the medicine he needed and refused to leave us until we were perfectly taken care of and happy. Honestly I usually don't even leave reviews but I need you to know that no matter who you are Febe will make this the best tour of your trip! I cannot recommend her enough!

Best guide in Alexandria

Published on Nov, 2024

We had a great time in Alexandria with a great guide. Feaby guided us around the city and gave us all the important information. Because of her knowledge and connections we were able to avoid the crowds of tourists. Feaby is one of the best tourist guides we have ever met!

Eeby: Best tour guide

Published on Oct, 2024

We enjoyed a wonderful 6-hour Alexandria tour with Feby. Feby met us early with a car and driver (a timesaver for few extra $) at Port Gate 10, an easy and safe walk from the Alexandria Cruise terminal. Feby was brimming with knowledge and enthusiastically shared stories in a friendly and informative way. The ancient Catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa tombs, cut from solid stone were unforgettable.. Feby has mastered the details of thousands of years of Egyptian history memorialized at St Catherine's Cathedral where she explained the dynasties that ruled Alexandria since 300 BC (a lot of heads cut off in the process). The Alexandria library, one of the biggest in the world, was full of surprises, history, knowledge and art. A few brief stops included the lighthouse and marketplace. Feby had great hugs for her many guide friends along the way. What a rich day in a city that would be difficult to navigate without a great guide. Thanks Feby.

Best tour guide ever!

Published on Sep, 2024

From the time Febe picked us up from the hotel, her enthusiasm, knowledge and passion was infectious! We had visited Alexandria before and she was keen to show us things we hadn’t seen before. The Bibliotec is extraordinary and definitely worth visiting, she showed us her favourite parts and told us stories that made her feel like an old friend. I also enjoyed driving round with her, as her home it was clear how much she loved it. I would not hesitate in recommending her and intend on getting in touch next time I find myself in Egypt!
