Private Alexandria Day Tour from Sokhna Port by Car

We will pick you up from Sokhna Port in a private car and transfer you to Alexandria.  After arriving in Alexandria in the morning, we will start our tour with visits to…

Catacombs:

The Romans built the catacombs in Kom El Shoqafa. They have three levels, and the way they are decorated is a mix of the Egyptian panthea and the Roman panthea.

Roman Theater:

The Roman Theater in Alexandria is behind the Street of Facades. It was built by the Nabataeans at the start of the first century AD.

Shortly after the Romans took over the kingdom in 106 AD, they added to and improved it. They built it by cutting a street of houses or tombs in half. This made the back of the hall bigger, so it could fit 3,000 people.

We will go to the new Library of Alexandria, whose design is based on the god Amun-Ra and the Lighthouse of Alexandria. There are also a planetarium, three museums, a laboratory, and a printing press, in addition to the many libraries.
