Picked up on time from my hotel in an aging small Chev, driver in front, guide & me in the back, rather cramped. Reached El Alamein in good time via a detour to New Alamein. Museum & Commonwealth Cemetery excellent, sufficient time allowed to explore both. Didn't see the German Cemetery as advertised but not important to me. I had booked lunch as part of the tour however that turned out to be back in Alexandria, not at El Alamein, where the guide & driver left me on my own in the cafe, then dropped me back at the hotel afterwards, so maybe don't bother with booking lunch & just do your own thing after the tour.

This was an experience like no other! [History Guy]… the amount of detail and explanation of the catacombs, the citadel, mosque monger other places you’ll see on this trip is amazing. The largest library in the world to be included. Our driver was Sayed Mohy, -SUPER AWESOME -and our tour guide Shirehan (might be spelled wrong…(Im sorry) was phenomenal as well. She took her time explaining and the information was able to be taken in and understood. Please book this and if you can request both to please escort you!!! Also ate at the fish market that overlooks the Mediterranean Sea!

We very much enjoyed a private tour of Alexandria's highlights with our guide Youssef, who was very knowledgeable, timely, flexible to our needs and also excellent in navigating through busy tourist sites, always managing to find us a quite spot. Our driver Amed was also very professional and helpful and the car very comfortable. Thank you for a memorable day!

We had a wonderful time in Alexandria with Sayed Mahmoud and Abdullah. Very interesting and funny visit. We even finish the tour having a cup of tea and smoking shisha! I highly recommend if you plan to come visit the city!

It was an excellent experience overall! I was accompanied by driver Eslam and guide Manan. Eslam was punctual and friendly throughout and thoroughly enjoyed his company. The only point of improvement will be that he was on his phone most of the time and talking while driving and also didn't speak good English, so it was a bit of a challenge. Manan was very friendly and had a lot of knowledge and patience and explained everything in detail. Loved her company, would definitely take another tour if she is the guide. Also helped me find a falafel sandwich though I opted for no food in the tour. Alexandria as a city is a must and is filled with a lot of history and interesting places.

The tour was great! We started off at Garbage City then to St. Simon Monastery; an incredible Coptic Church, hand carved into the side of a massive mountain ⛰️ From here it was on to the Coptic area of Cairo; which included The Hagging church, St. George s church and the Ben Ezra Synogue; all of which were amazingly Beautiful structures. We ended with a delicious Egptian lunch. We also had the pleasure as our guide Sayed Mahmoud who was truly Great!! Our driver Shady, also a great guy and very Kool behind the wheel. Thanks guys!! Go Egypt!!!

Unfortunately we feel let down by this tour. What was advertised as approximately 7 hours turned out to be 4.5 hours at best. Very, very, very rushed. Got the impression the guide had somewhere better to be. Also, although the library was closed being a Friday, we were promised on more than two occasions we could get some photos of the outside. When we went zooming past the library I raised this, but was told "no, no, no, we told you, the library is closed today". The guide, while seeming to be very knowledgeable, had problems communicating in English. All in all, not impressed Emo.

We had the best day with the most lovely, lovable, and kind tour guide (Heba) and driver (Islam). They were patient with our questions, very knowledgeable and stopped accommodated our every need! If you want a great experience, go with this tour! Great value, you won't be disappointed.

had a great day in Alexandria with a private car and our tour guide Heba was awesome and very knowledgeable about Alexandria ,and Khalid was an excellent driver,

Had a great day in Alexandria with my tour guide Eriny. We visited many landmarks in Alexandria. She explained many details with patience.

Eriny was our tour guide. She was kind, sweet and knowledgeable. Alexandria is a beautiful place with amazing history. Eriny was very organized and helpful. I certainly recommend this trip without any reservations. There was some delay at the pick up at Marriott in Cairo. We felt disconnected due to language barrier and I think it would be helpful if the driver could have made some effort to explain what the problem was. Some room for improvement for future trips!

I booked a private tour with Emo Tours Egypt in December 2022 for a day trip from Cairo to Alexandria. This private tour included myself and my elderly parents. Our driver, Ali, promptly showed up to our hotel at 8am. Ali was awesome. He made stops for coffee, food and bathroom breaks without question. The evening drive back to Cairo from Alexandria was equally pleasant. I want to add that Ali is also respectful of elderly folks, and made sure my parents were as comfortable as they could be. It’s a long drive (~ 2.5-3 hours one way) and Ali is cognizant of that so he tries to entertain you as best he can, but only if the passengers are open to it. When we reached the first site at Alexandria, we met both the company’s manager and our tour guide, Eriny. Eriny was our guide for multiple sites, which were the Catacombs of Kom Al Shoqafa, the Pompey Pillar, the Roman Amphitheater, the Qaitbay Fortress, and the Alexandria Library. This is pretty much everything you need to see in Alexandria. Eriny is extremely knowledgeable about Egyptian history, which includes Alexandria’s historical sites. Eriny was also conscious of my elderly parents and was like a virtual daughter to them for the duration of the tour. She even obliged my mom’s request to visit an Egyptian sweet shop, and did not make any attempts to sell us any third-party service or product - can’t tell you how much of a refreshing blessing this is. I have only positive notes to write about Emo Tours Egypt and would most definitely retain their services again, and highly recommend them to other tourists - especially Americans (given how annoyingly particular we can be). P.S. I had to choose the option of traveling with family (young children) cause that was the closest option available. However, it was my elderly parents who were traveling with me.

Irini was a fantastic guide. We saw all the major landmarks of the city such as the citadel and the catacombs. Would book again.

It was great touring Alexandria! We loved seeing the local markets and the carriage ride was exceptional! We would definitely recommend this tour!

Eriny was very helpful and a good guide - the sights were good and it was well organised, helped to organise another tour
