Alexandria in One Day: Catacombs, Library and Qaitbay
Plan a calm Alexandria city day around the Catacombs of Kom el Shoqafa, Bibliotheca Alexandrina and Qaitbay Citadel, with practical route and access advice.
Alexandria Day Tours
Explore Alexandria’s Catacombs, Bibliotheca and Mediterranean landmarks with a private route planned around where you are staying.
Plan By Route
Alexandria is different from Cairo, Luxor and Aswan: its most rewarding day tours pair layered Greco-Roman history with the library, the sea and a calmer city rhythm.
Start with the city-based route that fits your pickup point and available time. Egypt Story Tours keeps the plan practical with private transport, an Egyptologist where the route benefits from one and clear inclusion details before you enquire.
Choose by what you want from the day: Alexandria's first-time landmark route, or a calmer museums-and-gardens alternative. Both start from Alexandria, not Cairo.

Each route has a clear pickup point, realistic pacing and practical inclusion details before you enquire.
