Step by Step

On this private day tour from Cairo, you will have the opportunity to explore the city of Alexandria with the help of an expert guide. You'll begin your adventure early in the morning, when you'll be picked up from your hotel in Cairo and driven in a comfortable private vehicle to Alexandria.

Once in Alexandria, you will begin your guided tour visiting the main tourist attractions of the city. You will get to see the famous Library of Alexandria. This library, built on the site of the city's ancient library, is an important centre of knowledge and culture.

You can also visit the Catacombs of Kom el Shoqafa, an underground burial complex dating back to Roman times. You will explore the intricate chambers and corridors of these catacombs and learn about the funerary practices of the time.

Qaitbay Fort is another of the city's attractions, an impressive fortress built in the 15th century to protect the city from maritime attacks. From the fort, you will enjoy breathtaking views of the Mediterranean Sea and learn about Alexandria's history as an important seaport.

Your guide will accompany you throughout the tour. As this is a private tour, you will be able to customise the itinerary according to your tastes and preferences.

    The private excursion to Alexandria was a unique experience, although I think they could do better by including more free time to explore on your own.
