1. Alexandrian Tour

   • Have breakfast at the hotel, then around 07:00 am, meet your guide and head north towards Alexandria, Egypt’s second capital, to discover the beauty of the Greco-Roman civilization.
   • We will start our tour by visiting the Catacombs, which is considered one of the Seven Wonders of the middle age. It’s the largest known Roman burial site in Egypt, with three tiers of tombs that could accommodate up to 300 corpses. The cemetery was originally dug to be a private cemetery for one family. Then it was converted to be a public cemetery the architecture of the tombs mirrors Greco-Roman styles.
   • After finishing, our first visit to Alexander the Great city will Visit Qaitbay Citadel, the 15th -century defensive fortress located on the Mediterranean Sea coast. The Citadel is situated at the entrance of the eastern harbour on the eastern point of Pharos Island. It was erected on the site of the famous Lighthouse of Alexandria, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.
   • Then we will visit the Library “Bibliotheca” of Alexandria, Located near the site of the ancient library of Alexandria. This modern version is an eleven-story, cylindrical-shaped building that houses more than eight million books.

Its architecture – a giant sun disk – presides over the waterfront Corniche, while inside, a huge reading room can hold eight million volumes. 
   • Below the main library, visitors can explore a range of beautifully curated exhibitions. The Manuscript Museum, with its magnificent collection of ancient texts and scrolls and the Antiquities Museum, with its Graeco-Roman antiquities and statuary found during underwater exploration in the harbour, are the two prime attractions. But there are also rotating art exhibitions, a permanent Egyptian folk art collection, and a Science Museum and Planetarium that are aimed squarely at children.
