Also, visit Pompey's pillar and drive past the impressive Library of Alexandria, to the gates of the magnificent Montazah Palace, home of King Farouk.
Your private Egyptologist guide will pick you up from your hotel for a full day of sightseeing, exploring this beautiful city. Alexandria was founded by Alexander the Great in 312 B.C. and was the capital of Greco-Roman Egypt. Your first stop in this historic city is the catacombs of Kom ash-Shuqqafa, the largest known Roman burial site in Egypt, which was discovered accidentally in 1900 when a donkey disappeared through the ground. Descend below ground to visit the tomb and Caracalla Hall. Back above ground, proceed to Pompey’s Pillar, an 82-foot (25-meter) granite column built to honour Emperor Diocletian, who freed the besieged city and brought food to its starving people. Continue with your guide to the Roman amphitheatre, possibly the best preserved Roman site in Egypt. The site also includes the remains of a Roman street and homes.
After lunch you will drive past the impressive Library of Alexandria, the Norwegian-designed building is a striking piece of modern design. A copy of every book published in the world is kept in the library, making it one of the great literary sites in the world. Proceed to visit Fort Qaitbay from outside, once considered one of the most important defensive strongholds along the Mediterranean seacoast. It erected on the exact site of the famous Lighthouse of Alexandria, one of the Seven Wonders of the ancient world. Finally have the chance to visit Montazah Palace royal gardens and trees, at the end of your tour drive back to your hotel in Cairo.
