Spend a wonderful day tour in Alexandria, dubbed by locals as the “Pearl of the Mediterranean Sea,” founded in 332 BC by Alexander The Great, its namesake. Alexandria is the second largest city and the largest seaport in Egypt. Its harbor entrance was once marked by one of the seven wonders of ancient world, The Towering Lighthouse. The immense contents of its old bibliotheca were sadly torched but the ancient city’s sea still keeps some of its treasures hidden. In fact, the city of Cleopatra and the tomb of Alexander The Great are still undiscovered. During your adventure, you will relish the stories of your visit to some of the sites from history’s pages, including the site of the Library of Alexandria “Bibliotheca Alexandrina”, the Catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa, Qaitbay Citadel and Pompay’s Pillar.

I booked Mr Ahmed Nour El Din earlier for Pyramid tour and I was so amused by his knowledge, nature or charm etc. that I booked him again for this tour as well. Since I was very much comfortable with him earlier, it felt like a friend is guiding me to places and want to convey as much information he could. The Catacomb was so enormous cemetery and my tour guide explained very well that how the system in old times used to work. The Roman Amphitheatre again was phenomenal. It would have been useless to not hire a tour guide. And a guy like Ahmed, I totally envy his knowledge. We had a great lunch together. And lastly was the Alexandria Library. That was one of the top-notch libraries I have ever seen in my life. I recommend this tour for sure to anyone. And the Tour Guide? Well why would you not like to go with a PhD graduate?! :D
