Alexandria Day Tour From Cairo & Giza Hotels

Overview

On this over-day tour from Cairo or Giza hotels, you will explore Alexandria on Egypt’s Mediterranean coast. The city, often called the Bride of the Mediterranean and the Athens of Africa, was founded by Alexander the Great in 332 B.C. Its long history and Greek‑Roman connections form the backdrop to the sights you will see. As you move through the city, you will visit landmarks tied to the Greco‑Roman era, including Pompey’s Pillar and the Catacombs. You will also see the Citadel of Qaitbay, which was built on the ruins of Alexandria’s ancient lighthouse — once counted among the Seven Wonders of the ancient world. Along the way, you will explore these historic sites and the layers of history they reflect.
