What to do in Alexandria

On Egypt's Mediterranean coast, Alexandria was the pride of Alexander the Great and a thriving port for many moon. Today, you'll experience a far more modern version of the city, where the relics of its impressive past remain in ruins and memory alone. We highly recommend a visit to the museum, where you'll find a copy of the only papyrus text to survive the original Great Library's fire. For the really adventurous, dive (literally) below the surface of the ocean to see the city's sunken statues. Back on land, explore at your leisure, taking in the ocean views and grabbing a seafood lunch along the Corniche.
