Not what I was expecting for a day trip, I guess you can have another option for a near by destination
Response from Host, Sep 2025
Hi there, and thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.
We’re genuinely sorry to hear that your day trip didn’t match what you were hoping for. Alexandria is a very different experience to Egypt’s headline cities—quieter, more lived-in, and charming in a humble, coastal way. Guests who come expecting the scale and spectacle of Cairo or Luxor sometimes feel underwhelmed, and that’s on us to set better expectations from the start.
For travellers who want to get the best out of Alexandria, we usually recommend visiting early in the itinerary—when the senses are fresh and the slower, Mediterranean rhythm feels relaxing rather than “less.” We also love tailoring the day around personal interests so the city shines through your lens:
History & culture: the Roman Amphitheatre, the Catacombs, the Citadel, and a guided walk through old neighbourhoods.
Sea & leisure: corniche cafés, harbour views, Montaza gardens, and great local seafood.
Nearby alternatives (if you prefer something different): a focused heritage day to El-Alamein (war museum and memorials), or a countryside-and-crafts spin to Rosetta (Rashid) with Ottoman-era houses and local markets.
While this experience wasn’t what you expected, we’d truly value the chance to make it right. If you’re open to it, please message us directly so we can arrange a complimentary trip-planning call and propose a nearby option—or a refreshed Alexandria programme—aligned with what you enjoy most (pace, themes, food, photo stops, and so on).
Thank you again for your review. Your feedback helps us refine our pre-trip briefings so future guests know exactly what kind of day they’re booking—and get a day that feels just right for them.
Warm regards,
