Vip full Day tour(All-inclusive Alexandria a felucca from Cairo)

Explore Alexandria on a private tour from Cairo and leave all the logistics to the experts. In the company of your own Egyptologist guide, explore such key landmarks as the catacombs of Kom el Shoqafa, Pompey’s Pillar, the Citadel of Quaitbay, and the city’s new library. Includes lunch, entrance fees, a private guide and vehicle.

Begin your day with a pick-up from your hotel in Cairo and embark on a 3-hour drive to Alexandria.
Explore the Catacombs of Kom el Shoqafa, one of Alexandria’s most fascinating ancient sites. The necropolis, a mix of Pharaonic, Hellenistic, and Roman styles, dates back to the 2nd century AD.
Descend the circular staircase into the underground tombs, which feature a unique blend of Egyptian, Greek, and Roman art. The site includes several sarcophagi, statues, and a central burial chamber. The catacombs were used as a burial site until the 4th century and were rediscovered in 1900.

Next, visit Pompey’s Pillar, a towering granite column that stands as a symbol of Roman triumph in Alexandria. Despite its name, the column has no connection to the Roman general Pompey.
Learn about the site’s historical significance as the location of the Serapeum, a temple dedicated to the god Serapis. The temple was destroyed in 391 AD during the rise of Christianity, and today, only the pillar and some tunnels remain.
Explore the surrounding area, where remnants of the Serapeum and recovered artifacts, such as a black basalt bull, offer a glimpse into the city’s ancient past.

Conclude your tour with a visit to Fort Qaitbey, a 15th-century fortress located on the Mediterranean coast. The citadel was built by Sultan Al-Ashraf Sayf al-Din Qa’it Bay in 1477 AD to defend Alexandria from Ottoman invasions.
Explore the fortress, which is situated on the historic site of the ancient Pharos Lighthouse, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. The fort provides stunning views of the Mediterranean Sea and the city of Alexandria.
After exploring the fort, enjoy a relaxing drive back to Cairo, where you will be dropped off at your hotel.
