About this activity
Your trip will start at 8am by an AC car , our tour guide will be waiting for you at your hotel to introduce him self and to explain to you what you will discover , talking the way to Alexandria about hours and during this time he will give you a lovely brief about this wonderful city which is located on the Mediterranean ocean ,
first stop will be Alexandria's ancient Great Library, this gorgeously designed cultural center contains a host of museums as well as one of the modern world's most ambitious libraries. Its architecture - a giant sun disk - presides over the waterfront Corniche.
second stop:Fort Qaitbey. It may be a poor substitute for what was once the site of the mighty
Pharos Lighthouse - one of the seven wonders of the ancient world - but this squat and dinky fort has been standing guard over Alexandria's eastern harbor since 1480.
Third stop:Nobody thought much of the ancient rubble mound in central Alexandria until, in 1947, they decided to clear the site to make way for new housing. Instead, the area known as
Kom el-Dikka ("Mound of Rubble") revealed a whole swag of ancient ruins including a small
Roman
theatre.
Forth stop:In Carmous (in the southwest of the city) is a hill littered with the remains of ancient walls, architectural fragments, and rubble on which Alexandria's only ancient monument is left standing.
Pompey's Pillar rises from the ruins of the ancient and famous
Serapeion (Temple of Serapis).
