Price Match Policy

It’s important to us at Travel Junky that we are always competitive on price!

With this in mind we will do our best to try and match any ‘like for like’ price that you have seen elsewhere online.

Terms and Conditions

Our offer only applies to online travel sites that offer an exact 'like for like' deal and are offering live availability of that deal on the same day of your purchase on our site.

We will not price match elements of your holiday that have been booked on separate websites.

All price match applications must include any handling charges, booking fees and transaction fees.

If you would like us to have a look at a price match for you then please send an email to pricematch@traveljunky.com including the URL of the other website so that we are able to view the information exactly as you have seen it.

We will endeavour to reply to your price match query within 48 hours from the time of receipt.

Alexandria overview

About Alexandria
Until the second half of the 20th century, Alexandria was home to a large Greek community as well as substantial Jewish, French and Italian minorities. The majority of these people were involved in the commerce and industry sectors, and left Egypt in the 1950s because of the nationalizing policies of Nasser. As a result, Alexandria today, with a population of approximately 3 million is far less cosmopolitan and more Egyptians than at any other time in its long history.

The historic centre of Alexandria is around the western and eastern harbours, which are seperated by a promontory on which stands a Mameluke fortress (now a naval museum) built on site of the famous Paros, and a 19th century Royal Palace (which unfortunately is not open to the general public).

The modern day city stretches for some 16km (10 miles) along the coast of the Mediterranean hemmed in to the south by the El-Mahmudiya Canal and the brackish waters of Lake Maryut.

We have a huge selection of cheap holidays, flights & hotels to Alexandria available for you to search through. Simply run a search using the green search box located in the top left hand corner of the page.
