Overview

You will be picked up from your hotel by a private driver and licensed guide at your chosen time and then travel north to Alexandria. Everything will be prepared in advance so you can relax and make the most of your day exploring the city long associated with Alexander the Great. In Alexandria you will explore the city's Greco‑Roman heritage and encounter surviving remains from the classical period. Founded in 331 BC by the 25‑year‑old Alexander the Great, Alexandria is Egypt’s second‑largest city and still bears traces of its ancient past alongside later layers of history. As you move through the city with your guide, you will hear about its origins in the Hellenistic era, the influence of Greco‑Roman culture and the sites that reflect that legacy. This private Alexandria tour will help you use your time in Egypt to enjoy and understand the city’s classical roots.
