Day Tour to Alexandria from Cairo by car

Our representative will pick you up from your hotel in Cairo for a memorable day trip to Alexandria. Your journey begins with a visit to Pompey’s Pillar, an impressive monument built in honor of Emperor Diocletian in the 4th century, once part of the grand temple of Serapis. You will then continue to the Catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa, the largest Roman burial site in Egypt, featuring three underground levels carved into the rock.

Afterward, enjoy a delicious lunch at a local restaurant in Alexandria before heading to the Qaitbay Citadel, a 15th-century fortress built on the exact site of the ancient Lighthouse of Alexandria, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Your tour concludes with a visit to the modern Bibliotheca Alexandrina, a stunning revival of the ancient Great Library, before returning comfortably to your hotel in Cairo.
