Alexandria full day tour

Tour itinerary: Alexandria → Cairo

Embark on a full-day  Alexandria day tour from Cairo. Alexandria  Egypt's cosmopolitan second city called the pearl of the Mediterranean has an atmosphere that makes it more in tune with its neighbors to the north than with its neighbors in the Middle East. The city of Alexandria was founded by Alexander the Great in 331 BC and includes among its flanks the Pharos Lighthouse (Alexandria), which is one of the Seven Wonders of the World and was the location of a violent romantic love story that arose between Antony and Cleopatra. At present, Alexandria includes wonderful landmarks that bear witness to the great Greek history, along with beautiful mosques, a group of casinos spanning the Corniche, some picturesque parks, and modern and old hotels. Your day tour to Alexandria from Cairo will show you the well-preserved Roman Amphitheatre, Roman Catacombs, the newly reopened and restored site of the great Library of Alexandria, and Pompey's Pillar. Later, visit the Mosque of Abdul Abass and Qaitbay Fortress (Out-view visit).
