It's the freaking pyramids... they are amazing and a global icon of ancient history and travel. The area needs investment and clean up-- for sure. But, come on, it's an incredible location which every person should be able to see.

Grab a carriage and bargain for 250 LE for the whole trip around the site-- it's worth it. Give the guy 50 le if he does a good job, 100 if he's great. Be wary of price gouging camel guides-- agree upon a fair price ahead of time. Never more than 200 LE for any photo opportunity.

Just be nice, but be firm. It's an amazing location and should be visited in the early morning. If you are a student, bring your ID and you'll get a discount.

I’ve been coming to this beautiful seaside restaurant for several Years now. It’s a beautiful place to have dinner and see the sunset over the beach. A popular spot for photos and The food is excellent. In addition a great atmosphere, the staff is super sweet. The beach is not clean though, so be sure to crop your photos appropriately. That’s not the restaurant’s fault though.

What an amazingly beautiful location with so much history in this wonderful city of Alexandria. You can find Graves that date back to the early 19th century and witness the intricate history of the Greek families in Alexandria. The landscaping is beautiful and it is a very serene and calm place and the security guards are very kind. I hope to see continued preservation efforts in that beautiful cemetery as it is an important part of the cultural heritage of Alexandria. Although access is restricted to the Greek Community members, one might be able to inquire with the local Greek community to gain access to this location.
