• Alexandria Library - Begin your full-day tour with a pickup from Alexandria port by our tour guide, visiting the top attractions in Alexandria. The Great Library of Alexandria in Egypt was one of the largest and most important libraries of the ancient world. It was part of a larger research institution known as the Mouseion, dedicated to the Muses, the nine goddesses of the arts. The concept of a universal library in Alexandria may have been suggested by Demetrius of Phalerum, an exiled Athenian statesman residing in Alexandria, to Ptolemy I Soter, who might have initiated plans for the Library. However, the Library itself was likely constructed during the reign of his son, Ptolemy II Philadelphus. The Library rapidly amassed numerous papyrus scrolls, thanks to the Ptolemaic kings’ vigorous and well-funded efforts to acquire texts. The exact number of scrolls housed at any time is unknown, but estimates range from 40,000 to 400,000 at its peak.
• Qaytbay Castle - The Citadel of Qaitbay (or the Fort of Qaitbay; Arabic: قلعة قايتباي) is a 15th-century defensive fortress located on the Mediterranean Sea coast in Alexandria, Egypt. It was constructed between 1477 and 1479 AD (882–884 AH) by Sultan Al-Ashraf Sayf al-Din Qa’it Bay. The Citadel is positioned on the eastern side of the northern tip of Pharos Island at the entrance of the Eastern Harbour.
• Catacombs of Kom el Shoqafa - The Catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa (Arabic: مقابر كوم الشقافة, romanized: Maqābir Kūm al-Shuqāfah, lit. ’Mound of Shards’) is a historical archaeological site in Alexandria, Egypt, and is regarded as one of the Seven Wonders of the Middle Ages. The necropolis comprises a series of Alexandrian tombs, statues, and archaeological artifacts of the Pharaonic funerary cult with Hellenistic and early Imperial Roman influences. Due to the era, many features of the catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa blend Roman, Greek, and Egyptian cultural elements; some statues are Egyptian in style but wear Roman attire and hairstyles, while other features share a similar style. A circular staircase, often used to transport deceased bodies, leads down into the tombs that were carved into the bedrock during the age of the Antonine emperors.

Early Kom El-Dikka was a prosperous residential area, and later it became a major civic center in Alexandria, featuring a bath complex (thermae), auditoria (lecture halls), and a theatre. Today, Kom el-Dikka is the largest and most complete above-ground archaeological site in Alexandria. It offers extensive archaeological evidence of urban life in Roman Egypt, including early villas and their mosaics, and late Roman public works.
