Itinerary

  • Pompey's Pillar

    The only single column marks the site of what was once a huge and elaborate temple, which was constructed of marble and decorated with precious metals on the interior. Some of the tunnels around the complex remain and are open for tourists to explore and some of the artifacts from the temple have been recovered. A life-size black basalt bull from the temple and a golden plaque marking the foundation of the Serapis are on display in the Greco-Roman Museum. Qaitbay Citadel :Sultan Qaitbey built this picturesque fortress during the 14th century to defend Alexandria from the advances of the Ottoman Empire. His efforts were in vain since the Ottomans took control of Egypt in 1512, but the fortress has remained, strategically located on a thin arm of land that extends out into Alexandria’s harbor from the corniche.

    2 hours

  • Catacombs of Kom el Shoqafa

    The Arabic name translates to English as “the mound of potshards”, referring to the broken dishes and plates that marked the area before the tombs were discovered below. This extensive complex of impressively decorated tombs dates from the Roman Era and are considered as one of the “Seven Wonders of the Middle Ages”.

    1 hour 30 minutes

  • Bibliotheca Alexandrina

    Standing on the Alexandrian Corniche, the Bibliotheca Alexandrina is a vast and striking example of modern 21st century architecture, but the building recalls something much older. The library and cultural center were inaugurated in 2002 as part of a huge project to commemorate the city of Alexandria’s legacy as an ancient center of world learning and culture. (Bibleotheca Alexandrina closed on Friday)

Brilliant Tour Operators

Published on Dec, 2024

We booked a tour as a family with Memphis Tours that came highly recommended by our friends and sure enough we had a great experience with them. We were provided with hotel Pick up and drop and our meals were also taken care off in the total fee that we paid for the service. The communication was always prompt and the guide and the drivers were super punctual and always arrived earlier than the Pick up time. They were polite and courteous. The guides Imad and Ahmed were well versed in the history of each place we visited and gave us a good guided tour. We did a 5 day tour as below in case this is of help to anyone Day 1: Egypt Pyramids Tour & Sakkara Pick up at 9 am duration 7 Hours Day 2: Cairo Nile Dinner Cruise and Show Pick up at 4.45 pm duration 2 hours (7 to 9pm) Day 3: Cairo Sightseeing Tours Pick up at 9 Am duration 7 Hours Day 4: Fayoum Tour from Cairo Full day Duration is about 10 hours (8 am pick up ) Day 5 Tour to Alexandria from Cairo by Car Pick up at 6 Am duration 10 Hours Would highly recommend Memphis Tours. Thank you to the team for a great holiday experience.

Alexandria Egypt from Cairo

Published on Feb, 2024

Ahmed Zaki of Memphis Tours met us at the Cairo Airport. Our group was transported to the Foyr Seasons in Alexandria. Lufthansa air strike allowed us only one night and day but Ahmed Made sure it was packed with sightseeing He has a tv show which he talks about he History of the area. The best highlight was the catacombs of Kom El Shuqafa Tombs and chambers so well preserved He explained the burial process down a spiral staircase. The Egyptian people are so gracious. Ahmed made sure tickets Were pre purchased arrangement of security guard on our comfortable bus Took us to a wonderful seafood lunch overlooking the Mediterranean with pre reservations

Greece, Egypt, Jordan and Israel- lifelong memories

Published on Oct, 2023

My visit to Egypt was organized by Mostafa of Memphis Tours. For over 8 months Mostafa tirelessly worked with me to develop an itinerary of exactly what we wanted to do in Egypt. Mostafa was remarkable in terms of his professionalism, his patience and his total commitment to pleasure us. The package was very affordable and even included a 5 day cruise on the River Nile. We also did Greece, Israel and Jordan though Mostafa and Memphis Tours and we have beautiful, lifelong memories. There were minimal hiccups but his dedication to make our vacation a memorable one he ensured that those matters were promptly resolved. Thanks to Mostafa. Thanks to Memphis Tours

Enchanting Egypt

Published on Sep, 2023

This was my first tour organized by Memphis Tours but my second travel to Egypt in September 2023. The tour itself was awesome having benefitted from Ahmed Helal's expertise. He's the best among his peers and in great demand in all of Egypt. His wealth of knowledge is invaluable and unsurpassed. Our driver, Michael Lewis, was very welcoming, easy going and courteous. He made sure that I was comfortable for the safe and long drive ahead. Ewais Nuzahi was our Egyptian Tour Guide in the 3 night Minerva Nile Cruise. His exceptional knowledge of Egyptian history is simply superb. All great mentors are! While I believe traveling feeds the soul, Egypt is surely one not to be missed. I would highly recommend Memphis Tours and request for these excellent Egyptologists, Ahmed Helal and Ewais Nuzahi. So, what are you waiting for? Go out there and enjoy as tomorrow is not guaranteed. Life is too short to miss these endless opportunities waiting to be explored! - D - San Francisco Bay Area, California

Super Guide and great driver

Published on Sep, 2023

Dr Mohamad was our guide and Mr Imam was our driver. We had a very comfortable tour. Dr Mohamad is such a knowledgeable gentleman and explained everything in details. Both me and wife learnt so much about the history of Alexandria. Mr Imam took us to a fantastic falafel restaurant. He is such a safe driver. We would recommend them both to our friends for sure.
