Great tour and fantastic guide. Filled with interesting facts from someone who has obviously spent years researching the founding and history of Alexandria. Guide spent ample time at each site, expounding by answering group questions. Even as the tour went slightly over time, they continued to provide great information. We were even taken into the fial church, which was an extra, and very special.
