Discover a city steeped in Greco-Roman heritage, from the ancient burial chambers of the Catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa and the towering Pompey's Pillar to the modern architectural marvel of the Bibliotheca Alexandrina. Conclude your coastal exploration at the imposing 15th-century Citadel of Qaitbay, built on the site of the legendary Lighthouse of Alexandria.
Your tour concludes with a return to Cairo, offering a final taste of Egyptian culture, perhaps exploring the vibrant stalls of the Khan el-Khalili Bazaar or the Islamic and Coptic heritage sites, before your departure. This compact itinerary is the ideal way to experience Egypt's ancient marvels and Mediterranean charm in just one short, incredible break.
