Itinerary

1. Alexandria
Alexandria location on the north of Egypt 200 km from Cairo 3 hrs by car
Duration: 180 mins
2. Catacombs Of Kom El Shoqafa
The Catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa, located in Alexandria, are one of the most important archaeological sites in Egypt. Built in the 2nd century AD, they served as a family tomb during the Roman period and were later expanded. The site features a spiral staircase, funeral banquet hall (triclinium), and beautifully carved sarcophagi and statues that blend Egyptian gods, Roman dress, and Greek art. The carvings show gods like Anubis dressed as Roman soldiers, reflecting the cultural fusion of the time. Rediscovered in 1900 when a donkey fell into the shaft, the catacombs were later restored. Today, they attract tourists for their unique mix of architecture, history, and mystery.
Duration: 60 mins
3. Pompey's Pillar
Pompey's Pillar is a famous Roman monument in Alexandria, Egypt. It stands about 26.85 meters (88 feet) tall and was built in 297 AD to honor Emperor Diocletian for saving the city during a rebellion. Despite its name, it has nothing to do with Pompey the Great. The pillar is made of red granite from Aswan and is one of the largest ancient monoliths still standing. It was once part of a grand temple known as the Serapeum, dedicated to the Greco-Egyptian god Serapis. Today, it’s one of Alexandria’s top landmarks, offering insight into the city’s Roman history.

The library houses millions of books in many languages and includes museums, art galleries, a planetarium, and research centers. It also hosts lectures, exhibitions, and international conferences, making it a hub of knowledge, science, and culture in the Arab world and beyond.
