Sightseeing in Alexandria

We can provide you with a wide range of day tours and excursions. Even a simple half-day tour with Alexandria Airport Hospitality is more than a tour as our Egyptologists torus in alexandria (all of whom graduated from Alexandria Universities) can show you parts of Alexandria often left mostly unseen with other companies.

 

Your personal Egypt Last Minute tour leader will be waiting for you before you arrive at Alexandria Airport. They will have your name on a sign and will help you from the moment you enter Egypt. If you require a general entry visa to Egypt then please ask us and the tour guide will also get this for you in advance so you do not have to queue. The tour leader will help you through all the normal procedures associated with airports and then the private air-conditioned vehicle (suitable to meet the needs of your group) will then take you to your hotel.
