We met Eriny at the Alexandria library which was spectacular. She explained the layout and history of Alexandria before we went in. We covered quite a bit of Alexandria with 2 uber rides. I didn’t realise how big Alexandria was. I wish we could have seen the Citadel up close but that would have been another uber ride away. She did take us to the Corniche with a view of it. Eriny was knowledgeable, accommodating and very helpful. She gave us useful recommendations for lunch and shopping .
Mahmoud walked us through the history of Egypt by showing us different displays from the first to the most recent kings of Egypt . I now have a better understanding of Egyptian history . I liked his approach as it was methodical and structured. He peppered his lesson with entertaining stories . He was able to answer all my questions . He also showed us around downtown and mentioned places we could get authentic Egyptian food. I enjoyed my time with him
