Temple entrance tickets are included in the standard option; the carriage-only option covers transport alone.Is it for me?Book the standard option if you want the temples included and don't want to buy tickets separately at each gate; choose the carriage-only option if you prefer to handle entry fees on your own or plan to return to the temples another day.

Private Alexandria Day Tour from Cairo: Choose Your Four StopsA private day tour from Cairo to Alexandria with an English-speaking guide where you choose four attractions from the city's major sites—Citadel of Qaitbay, Catacombs of Kom el Shoqafa, Alexandria National Museum, Roman Amphitheatre and Pompey's Pillar. The guide picks you up at 7 a.m., lunch and all entrance fees are included, and the itinerary is yours to shape.Is it for me?If your group speaks English comfortably, the standard guide works well; if Spanish, German or Arabic is easier, request that language when you book and the commentary will be in the language your group understands. The flexibility to choose four attractions means you can skip sites that don't interest you and spend more time at the ones that do, rather than following a fixed itinerary that includes everything.
