About

Alexandria is a very active city and, in our excursion, you will be able to visit it for 10 hours or so from Cairo (Giza). It is a city that has a lot of culture to tell and much of it is oral because there are not enough vestiges left to see the old city. With our guide you can know many things about this special city.
