Alexandria is Egypt’s Most Underrated City…

That Alexandria Blue is unreal… Almost no Chinese tourists know about this bus, let alone dare to take it—so I tested it with my parents first! 🚌 The Red Double-Decker Bus: Alexandria’s Best-Kept Secret Only 25 EGP (≈¥3!) for a coastal joyride. Route: 18km along the Mediterranean (1hr), passing: Montaza Palace → San Stefano → Sidi Gaber → Bibliotheca Alexandrina → Raml Station → Citadel of Qaitbay. Hop-on/hop-off: Unlimited rides 9AM–6PM (every 30mins). Best seat: Right side for ocean views (Montaza→Qaitbay). Boarding spots: Montaza Palace: Near the seaside gate (look for the coconut tree, Pic 3). Qaitbay: Alley entrance (ask locals with the bus photo). 💡 *Taxi for the same route? 150-200 EGP. This is a steal!* 🌟 Alexandria Highlights 🏰 Montaza Palace 200 EGP, skip if short on time—but the gardens are serene. 📚 Bibliotheca Alexandrina Closes at 1PM! My biggest regret—check timings! 🌅 Citadel of Qaitbay Golden hour magic: Pink sunsets over the fortress. Internal access until 5PM; luggage storage at security. 🍽️ Dining White & Blue: Seaside lunch spot (100m from Qaitbay bus stop). Average food, epic views. Local gems: Cafés downtown + seafood market near Qaitbay. Must-try: Goat milk ice cream (3 scoops=50 EGP, only in Alexandria & Marsa Matrouh!). #EgyptTravel #AlexandriaHiddenGems #BudgetTravel
