Some lovely sights

schuh17, Oct 2019

I really enjoyed my tour of Alexandria, and my tour guide Mohamed Assure was very accommodating, and knowledgeable about the sites. It is a long drive, and absolutely not a criticism of the tour or the guide; but the policy at the catacombs is no cameras, although you can take your phone and take photos all day. Obviously an outdated policy on the part of the site, that should be updated.

Response from Host, Oct 2019

Thank you very much we are looking forward meeting you
