Why this trip
Salt air, pigeons on the Corniche and the view of the Mediterranean: Alexandria feels different from Cairo. For families and couples who need two days away from the noise of the pyramids, the coastal city is the counterpart. At the site of the former lighthouse, the ancient Pharos, fortifications recall the history of the city, Pompey's Pillar rises above the hill of the Serapeum, and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier is one of the places where time stands still. If you are interested in mosques, plan a walk through the old town.
The Corniche on the waterfront suits children who want to run. Getting there and staying depend on location: Alexandria lies far north of Cairo, and Siwa, Dahab and El Gouna are other destinations with a different character. The cooler season from October to April is the right one; in high summer it gets oppressively humid. There is no hotel from our data list here, so the choice of accommodation is arranged individually.
If you visit Alexandria, it is best to combine the city with Cairo, because the connection and the return journey then belong to the same trip.
