Pompey's Pillar, Alexandria, Egypt Pompey’s Pillar (Serapium Oracle). Despite being Alexandria’s most famous tourist sight, Pompey’s Pillar is a disappointment. After all, it’s just a granite pillar—albeit at 88 feet, a very tall one placed on a hill surrounded by ruins. the pillar was misnamed after Pompeii's (106—48 Bc) by the Crusaders. In fact, it dates to the 3rd century AD, when i was erected in honor of the emperor Diocletian on the site of a Ptolemaic temple to Serapis. Helpful signs on the ruins name each virtually empty spot as a “pool” or “bath,” which to the untrained eye look like indistinguishable rocks, The late-model sphinxes lying around on pedestals add a little character, The most interesting element, ironically, is that from the hill you can get a glimpse inside the walled cemetery next door, as well as a view of a long and busy market street. & Corner of Amoud El Sawary. 45 minutes

We took a tour with Tarek to explore Alexandria where we docked during a cruise.
Tarek was incredible while communicating from the get go and throughout.
He tailored a tour according to our needs and interests. We visited the new library (a must), a local market and a hidden old colonial bar, ate local food and had a lot of interesting insights.
