8 am
After breakfast at your accommodation, move in an air- conditioned vehicle to
start your adventure in Alexandria. In today’s Photography tour, we will go to
Fouad Street. From the Ptolemy’s to the Pashas, Fouad Street has always been
a witness to Alexandria’s momentous past. The street offers an outstanding
opportunity to explore a spot where the European architect dated back to the 19 th
and early 20 th centuries met with the authentic Egyptian one. A mixture where the
west meets the east in an exceptionally harmonized way. Spend the day visiting
different buildings and appreciate its exterior same as its interior while being
escorted by a local guide who will also share the historical background and
reason for such a mixture. We keep on exploring Fouad street till we reach Chez
Gapi restaurant which is one of the classic restaurants in Alexandria, a hidden
gem from the 60s times with few locals being aware of its history.
2 pm – 4 pm
After Lunch at “Chez Gabi”, the journey will take us to Kom El Dikka, which was a
well-off residential area in Greco-Roman times with lovely villas, bathhouses and
a theatre. The area was known as the Park of Pan, a pleasure garden where
citizens of Alexandria could indulge themselves in various ways. Do not miss the
chance to explore the sunken monuments pavilion which displays different
monuments that were lifted from the eastern harbor.
4:30pm – 6pm
We will continue our walk through Mahatet El Raml (The station of Raaml), which
is the old city center in Alexandria. Continue to Windsor Hotel. It is almost time
for tea time and cakes while witness a breathtaking view of the sunset over the
eastern harbor from the hotel Roof.
Later, you will move back to your hotel for dinner or you can opt for an
OPTIONAL dinner in a traditional Egyptian Grills restaurant.
