Day 4
Wake up to another delightful breakfast served at your hotel in the morning, and then you will either have the entire day to yourself, or else you will be taken to Alexandria for a tour of Egypt’s second capital. The Alexandria tour is optional and is therefore not included in the standard price of our 8-day Cairo to Istanbul tour package.
If you have opted in for this tour, you will then be picked up from your hotel at the agreed time, and you will be driven to Alexandria for an unforgettable tour of the city’s best historical attractions. The first place you will visit upon arrival will be the imposing Qaitbay Citadel which was once one of the most crucial and most impenetrable military strongholds along the entire Mediterranean coastline.
You will also visit the city’s new and spoken-about library before heading to visit the rock-cut Roman cemetery and the ancient Catacombs. Finally, you will be driven back to your hotel in Cairo.
