المستخلص: Smart city initiatives have gained significant momentum in recent years, with an emphasis on leveraging technology to improve urban living. While major metropolises have embraced these innovations, there is a noticeable gap in the integration of smart city features into non-smart urban environments. Based on the significant positive relation between technology, innovation and smart, technological solutions are being implemented to solve identified urban problems and conflicts. In other words, ICTs is used in products that improve urban function management in areas such as transport, energy, health care, water, and waste. Hence, allowing for the development of innovation networks, healthy societies and dynamic economies as well as providing solutions to many problems of urbanization and sustainability (Angelidou, 2015). This raises the question, can the infusion of smart city elements into conventional urban spaces not only elevate tourist experiences but also catalyze community development? This study tried to explore the challenges, opportunities, and potential impacts of integrating smart city features into non-smart urban areas, with a specific focus on enhancing tourist experiences and fostering community development in Alexandria. This study adopted the qualitative approach by using the focus group method. Using the purposive sampling, two focus groups were made with academic specialists, Tourism industry expertise and government official. Results clearly revealed that smart city features can be integrated in Alexandria to face some of its major problems and enhance tourist experiences and community development. Establishing widespread Wi-Fi hotspots throughout the city to ensure continuous connectivity for tourists, having smart mobility- and smart security solutions are especially needed. Some of the main challenges for implementation would be the lack of adequate financial and technical resources.
