A private day trip from Marsa Matruh to Alexandria is an excellent way to transition from the relaxing, turquoise beaches of Matruh to the rich Greco-Roman history of Egypt’s cultural coast. Because the drive takes roughly 3.5 hours each way (covering around 285 km along the scenic International Coastal Road), a private tour ensures you can travel comfortably in an air-conditioned vehicle and maximize your time.
