Guru: Do Free tours
Registered on 19 June 2025
We are a group of locals — born and raised in Alexandria, Egypt, and proud graduates of the Faculty of Tourism & Hotels.
After over 10 years working in the tourism field, we realized something simple but powerful:
The truest, most meaningful tour…
is a walking tour,
through hidden gems,
guided by locals — not scripts.
💛 It’s totally free — no fees, no pressure.
We don’t get a salary. We just love what we do.
If you enjoy your time, you’re welcome to leave a tip — only if you’re satisfied.
We love Alexandria — deeply —
and we’d love for you to see it through our eyes.
