Highlights

Step out of the desert and into the "Bride of the Mediterranean." In Alexandria, you don't just visit history—you walk through it. Imagine starting your morning deep inside ancient Roman catacombs, lunching on fresh-caught seafood as the salty sea breeze hits your face, and ending your day standing atop a medieval fortress built from the ruins of a Wonder of the Ancient World. From the shimmering glass of the Great Library to the golden sunsets over the Corniche, Alexandria is a city of cool blue waters, grand architecture, and legendary stories.
