Alexandria’s key sights are miles apart so it’s impossible to do this historic city from Cairo in a day on public transport. With at least six hours in transit, a private tour gives you space to relax. This one hits the Roman Amphitheatre, the Citadel of Qaitbay, the Catacombs of Kom el Shoqafa, and the landmark new library of Alexandria with a guide. Entrance fees are at your own expense.
