  • I love the tram. It is old, slow and crowded but still very functional and will cover a good part of ALexanderia. I think it will coast you .75 LE

    Alexandria has a creaky, slow but very cheap tram system that dates back to 1860 and looks the part. There are nine lines, mostly running parallel to the coast; the yellow line to Ras el-Tin is particularly useful for traveling to Fort Qait Bey. The flat fare is a whopping 25 piasters and the trip across town will take a bare minimum of 45 minutes. Note that the middle car (out of three) in each interurban (blue) tram is reserved for women only. Yellow lines run west and around the central and downtown area of the city, while blue trams serve the eastern residential suburbs. Alexandria has a 32 km tramway. It has a 22km Regional Metro Line, and a 16 km LRT with 6 lines, all originating at Ramleh station and serving the eastern sections of the city. A 42 km subway is also on the drawing board
