Your first stop is Pompey's Pillar, a towering monument erected in honor of Emperor Diocletian in the 4th century. Once part of the Serapis Temple, it is curved from a single, slender piece of red Aswan granite. Dive deep into Alexandria's Greco-Roman legacy with your private Egyptologist and uncover the hidden stories etched into its ancient stones.

Catacombs Of Kom El Shoqafa

"Next, we'll drive you to the Catacombs, an ancient Roman Cemetery. Carved into three levels in the rock, this labyrinth blends Pharaonic, Hellenistic, and Roman art and rituals in a rare display of cultural fusion. Uncover hidden chambers, symbolic carvings, and burial traditions that reveal the complex layers of Alexandria's ancient society with your private storyteller guide."

Citadel of Qaitbay

"After exploring these ancient wonders, you'll enjoy a delicious lunch at one of Alexandria's local restaurants. Then, continue to the Qaitbay Citadel, a 15th-century fortress built on the exact site of Alexandria's ancient Pharos (Lighthouse), once one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. As the evening descends, your guide will accompany you back to your cruise ship at Alexandria Port. Sun Pyramids Tours ensures a transparent and hassle-free experience, so you won't encounter any hidden surprises or unexpected costs."
