What you'll see
While my Cairo to Alexandria transfer is essentially a means of transportation; I have designed it to provide a culturally enriching experience. I am a licensed professional and a member of the Ministry of Tourism; therefore, I can enhance this time you spend traveling through Egypt from Cairo to Alexandria by sharing information about Egypt's Mediterranean heritage during your three-hour drive to Alexandria.
My services differ from the traditional service offerings of simply providing a driver; I will provide you with both historical and cultural insights into the development of Alexandria and the Nile Delta, through both spoken story-telling and visual displays, as well as through the selection of scenic route choices or efficient route options.
Using advanced real-time traffic monitoring technology, I guarantee your on-time departure and arrival, and my transparent all-inclusive pricing model provides complete cost certainty for every aspect of your transfer, including but not limited to fuel costs, tolls and fees, a personal air-conditioned vehicle with a driver, and complimentary bottled water.
With 24/7 direct access to me, you may be assured that any sudden requests to make an unplanned stop, such as taking pictures at an orange grove or wanting to stop for a moment at Abu Qir Bay, will be accommodated without hassle or delay.
Through my exceptional blend of dependable service delivery and genuine hospitality, your experience of visiting the Pearl of the Mediterranean starts when you first meet with me, providing you with confidence, comfort, and warmth from your personal guide.
