Alexandria is a city shaped by the sea, where Mediterranean charm meets layers of ancient history. Founded by Alexander the Great, this coastal destination carries a legacy of Greek, Roman, and Egyptian influence that gives it a distinct character unlike any other city in the country.

Stroll along the scenic Corniche as waves crash gently against historic shores, and explore the impressive Citadel of Qaitbay, built on the very site of the legendary ancient Lighthouse of Alexandria — once one of the Seven Wonders of the World. The modern Bibliotheca Alexandrina stands as a powerful symbol of knowledge and renewal, honoring the memory of the ancient Great Library that once made the city a center of learning for the world.

Beneath the streets lie the mysterious Catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa, blending Roman artistry with Egyptian tradition. From seaside cafés serving fresh seafood to elegant colonial-era buildings and cultural landmarks, Alexandria offers a refreshing and romantic contrast to Egypt’s desert landscapes — a destination where history meets the rhythm of the Mediterranean breeze.
