Day two of our excursion begins with a morning pickup for the scenic drive to the Nile Delta region. Our first stop is a rural farming village where we'll join locals for a traditional breakfast of full medames and flatbread.
Next, we'll take a short boat ride through lush agricultural lands dotted with palm trees. Keep an eye out for waterbirds along the waterways. Afterwards, learn the art of weaving bamboo goods at a family workshop.
Following lunch at a lakeside café, we head inland to the town of Damanhur. Here fascinating ruins of the ancient Persian-inspired White Walls and temples await exploration.
Our last visit was to a papyrus paper production facility. Witness the intricate process of creating these traditional writing materials still used today.
Retracing our route in the golden late afternoon light, we return to Alexandria enriched by experiences off the beaten path. Friendly encounters provide heartfelt glimpses into Delta culture.

The idea of building the pyramids is due to the belief of the ancient Egyptians in the immortality of the soul, to their belief in Baath again, and to the existence of a lasting eternal life later on, so the ancient Egyptians built a fortified cemetery in which the body is placed after its embalming, and provided with a full range of dead people's needs such as tools, furniture, food and drink that he used in his daily life.
