The Library quickly acquired many papyrus scrolls, due largely to the Ptolemaic kings' aggressive and well-funded policies for procuring texts.

We absolutely fell in love with the city! The tour was very well organized - punctual, interesting, flexible to our interests and wishes. The driver who picked us up was extremely friendly and drove safely. The tour guide Rania is very knowledgeable, kind and sweet. We felt very comfortable right away. She knows a lot of things, also beyond the tour spots. The route was well chosen and also efficient for a day trip. We would definitely book this tour again!

Los lugares que visitamos son increíbles y el guía fue muy amable y se nota que sabe mucho. Es una lástima que un lugar así esté lleno de basura, sobre todo las playas, las cuales parecen más un basurero.
