I wanted to take a moment to share my wonderful experience with our tour guide, Mohamed Afifi Hamed, during our visit to Alexandria. Mohamed was not only knowledgeable, but he also had a great passion for the history and culture of the city. He took us to some truly amazing places, each one more fascinating than the last and to our driver Ahmed who keep our journey safe. Additionally, the restaurant he recommended for lunch was a fantastic choice! The food was delicious and provided a perfect opportunity to enjoy the local flavors. I highly recommend Mohamed to anyone looking to explore Alexandria with an engaging and experienced guide. Best regards, Grace and Musy
