Alexandria Day Tour — Car, Guide & Tickets
Discover the fascinating history, ancient monuments, and Mediterranean charm of Egypt’s legendary coastal city on a private Alexandria Day Tour from Giza. Travel comfortably in a private air-conditioned car with a professional Egyptologist tour guide and explore Alexandria’s most important archaeological and cultural landmarks with entrance tickets included.
Your day begins with convenient hotel pickup in Giza. Sit back and enjoy the comfortable journey to Alexandria, the famous Mediterranean city founded by Alexander the Great. During the drive, your private Egyptologist guide will introduce you to Alexandria’s fascinating history and explain how the city became one of the ancient world’s greatest centers of culture, science, and knowledge.
Your first stop is the remarkable Catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa, one of Alexandria’s most fascinating archaeological sites. Descend into this ancient underground complex and discover its unique mixture of Egyptian, Greek, and Roman influences. Your guide will explain the burial traditions, architecture, and history behind this extraordinary monument.
Continue to Pompey’s Pillar, one of Alexandria’s most recognizable ancient landmarks. Located among the remains of the ancient Serapeum, the impressive granite column is a powerful reminder of the city’s importance during the Roman period.
Next, explore the Roman Theater, an important archaeological site that offers a glimpse into everyday life and entertainment in ancient Alexandria. Walk among the preserved remains while your guide explains the history and significance of the site.
Continue to the magnificent Qaitbay Citadel, one of Alexandria’s most iconic landmarks. Built directly beside the Mediterranean Sea on the site traditionally associated with the ancient Pharos Lighthouse, the citadel offers spectacular views of the coastline and an opportunity to discover the city’s medieval history.
Your Alexandria experience also includes a visit to the area of the Bibliotheca Alexandrina, the modern cultural landmark inspired by the legacy of the ancient Library of Alexandria. Admire its distinctive architectural design and learn about Alexandria’s historic role as a center of scholarship and intellectual life.
After visiting the major historical sites, enjoy a scenic drive along the Alexandria Corniche. Take in the beautiful Mediterranean views and experience the relaxed atmosphere of Egypt’s famous coastal city.
