This tour to Alexandria National Museum from Cairo is more than a day trip; it’s a window into Egypt’s coastal soul, where centuries of history and Mediterranean charm live side by side.
At Respect Tours, we don’t just take you to museums, we help you feel the stories inside them. At the Alexandria National Museum, you’ll discover one of Egypt’s most exciting archaeological trends: the sunken treasures of ancient cities lost beneath the sea. See rare artifacts lifted from the depths of the Mediterranean, statues, jewelry, and sacred objects from the underwater ruins of Thonis-Heracleion and Canopus.
From exploring the Greek Museum’s timeless artifacts to enjoying a peaceful walk along Alexandria’s scenic Corniche, every stop adds a new layer to your experience. With a private guide by your side, all transfers handled, and entry tickets included, you’re free to take it all in, the history, the stories, and the sea-born secrets now on display.
Your day begins with a comfortable morning pickup from your hotel in Cairo. Relax in a private, air-conditioned vehicle as you travel north to Alexandria, a beautiful coastal city where history meets the sea.
Once you arrive, your private Egyptologist guide will lead you to the Roman Amphitheatre, one of the city’s most fascinating archaeological discoveries. This well-preserved site offers a rare glimpse into Alexandria’s ancient Greco-Roman life, with curved marble seats, mosaic floors, and echoes of the past in every step.
Next, head to the Greek Museum, filled with statues, tools, and everyday items from thousands of years ago. Your guide will help you understand how Alexandria was once a center of learning and culture.
Continue to the Alexandria National Museum, where Egypt’s newest archaeological fascination awaits: sunken monuments. See treasures pulled from the depths of the Mediterranean, statues of gods, golden jewelry, and sacred objects from long-lost cities like Thonis-Heracleion and Canopus.
End your visit with a relaxing stroll along the Corniche, Alexandria’s famous seaside road. Enjoy the sea breeze, try Azza’s famous ice cream, or opt for a fresh seafood lunch (meals not included).
By the evening, your driver will take you back to Cairo, ending your day with new stories, sea air, and memories from one of Egypt’s most unique cities.
Alexandria is about 220 km (137 miles) from Cairo. The drive takes approximately 2.5 to 3 hours each way in a private, air-conditioned vehicle.
Yes! Many of the objects displayed at the Alexandria National Museum were recovered from underwater excavations in the sunken cities of Heracleion and Canopus, making this one of Egypt’s most exciting archaeological stories.
Alexandria is perfect year-round, but the spring (March–May) and fall (September–November) months offer the most pleasant weather for walking along the coast and exploring open-air sites.
