Sea Views and History in One Day 😍 - Loved every part of this tour. The drive was smooth and the guide kept things fun. Alexandria has this mix of sea views and ancient history that’s just magic. The citadel was my favorite spot I could have stayed there for hours just watching the waves. Lunch by the water was perfect and the whole day just felt relaxed. Highly recommend.

Chill Trip with Awesome Views - I didn’t know what to expect but I ended up loving it. We saw the pyramids early before it got too hot and crowded which was great. Then we drove out to Saqqara which was super interesting and way more relaxed. The whole tour felt chill and the guide didn’t pressure us or rush through anything. I’d do it again for sure.

Super Fun and Easy - This tour was honestly super easy and enjoyable. I didn’t have to worry about anything. The driver picked me up on time and the guide was funny and made us feel comfortable right away. The pyramids were insane and Saqqara had this calm ancient energy that I really liked. If you want a quick but solid experience, this is a great choice.

Bucket List Morning Checked - Honestly this tour was way better than I expected
Seeing the pyramids up close was just wild
Photos don’t do it justice

Not as crowded and full of history
