  • Pompey's Pillar, Alexandria, Egypt
    The only single column marks the site of what was once a huge and elaborate temple, which was constructed of marble and decorated with precious metals on the interior. Some of the tunnels around the complex remain and are open for tourists to explore and some of the artifacts from the temple have been recovered. A life-size black basalt bull from the temple and a golden plaque marking the foundation of the Serapis are on display in the Greco-Roman Museum. Qaitbay Citadel :Sultan Qaitbey built this picturesque fortress during the 14th century to defend Alexandria from the advances of the Ottoman Empire. His efforts were in vain since the Ottomans took control of Egypt in 1512, but the fortress has remained, strategically located on a thin arm of land that extends out into Alexandria’s harbor from the corniche.
    120 minutes
  • Catacombs of Kom el Shoqafa, Alexandria, Egypt
    The Arabic name translates to English as “the mound of potshards”, referring to the broken dishes and plates that marked the area before the tombs were discovered below. This extensive complex of impressively decorated tombs dates from the Roman Era and are considered as one of the “Seven Wonders of the Middle Ages”.
    90 minutes
  • Bibliotheca Alexandrina, Alexandria, Egypt
    Standing on the Alexandrian Corniche, the Bibliotheca Alexandrina is a vast and striking example of modern 21st century architecture, but the building recalls something much older. The library and cultural center were inaugurated in 2002 as part of a huge project to commemorate the city of Alexandria’s legacy as an ancient center of world learning and culture. (Bibleotheca Alexandrina closed on Friday)

It’s a haul (2.5 hr), but thankfully, the road is good and the scenery is interesting. We stopped 1/2 way there to toilet and purchase Chai tea. There is also a couple neat shops if you are a shopper. Tarek gave us great information and since the bibliotheca was closed for holiday, we saw the Roman catacombs, Roman temple ruins and a substitute of the Citadel (insist on the citadel unless you are a librarian!) After, we had fresh sea bass and rice with a variety of pita bread with garlic whip, babaganoush, and 2kinds of hummus for lunch. We were right on the water and the view was as lovely as the meal. We are age 40s-70s. The steps were steep in a couple locations, but everyone was able to fully participate with a shoulder or arm to lean on for support.

Trip to Alexandria for the day was okay. Our guide was nice and knowledgeable, but everything felt rushed. The library was closed due to it being Friday (my fault for not checking) and it was what I really wanted to see. A long drive for one day. Our guide left us alone for a while which was fine but also strange. We were routed to a papyrus factory back in Cairo after a really long day.....we really just wanted to get back to the hotel. Our guide also too some pictures of us and never sent them to us. For the price this trip was not really worth it.
