You will be visiting a variety of destinations in Alexandria, starting with Pompey's Pillar, a famous landmark in the city. There are differing opinions about its origin, with some believing it was built as a tribute to the great general Pompey, while others think it was a symbol of the city's power. Regardless, the column is an impressive sight and a reminder of the city's history.

Next, you will visit the Citadel of Qaitbay, one of the most important defensive strongholds in Egypt and along the Mediterranean Sea coast. Sultan Qaitbay built this impressive monument in the 15th century and is a testament to the power and strength of the Qaitbay dynasty.
