Overview

This experience is aimed at road trip lovers and takes you from Cairo to Alexandria, a 220 km journey by road. Along the way you will head toward a city that once served as Egypt’s capital and stood at the heart of the ancient Mediterranean world. The trip offers a chance to leave the capital behind and spend time exploring Alexandria’s long history. In Alexandria you will explore places and stories that reflect its former importance. You will learn about its role as a cultural and commercial centre in antiquity and about the great lighthouse of Alexandria, which was once counted among the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. As you move through the city, you will encounter layers of history that explain why Alexandria held such influence across the Mediterranean. The experience focuses on the city’s past and heritage, giving you context and insight into its ancient prominence.
