    Alexandria, Egypt

    Once Egypt's greatest city and cultural centre of the Mediterranean.

    A Roman amphitheatre, ancient catacombs and the site of the great Pharos lighthouse recall distant glories, while the 19th century Montazah Palace - a former royal residence - and seafront boulevards reflect a more recent era. Alexandria exists in the land that gave birth to the first great civilisation.

    • We will begin our tour by heading from the port to the Roman Amphitheatre in Egypt, discovered quite recently, during the foundation digging for a new apartment building.
