Uncover the secrets of Alexandria
We are a group of locals — born and raised in Alexandria, Egypt, and proud graduates of the Faculty of Tourism & Hotels. After over 10 years working in the tourism field, we realized something simple but powerful: The truest, most meaningful tour… is a walking tour, through hidden gems, guided by locals — not scripts. 💛 It’s totally free — no fees, no pressure. We don’t get a salary. We just love what we do. If you enjoy your time, you’re welcome to leave a tip — only if you’re satisfied. We love Alexandria — deeply — and we’d love for you to see it through our eyes.
