Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about this tour
Is one day enough for Alexandria?
Yes, a full day (approximately 10 hours including driving) is enough to see the main highlights — Bibliotheca Alexandrina, Qaitbay Citadel, the Catacombs, and enjoy a seafood lunch by the Mediterranean. The drive from Cairo is 3 hours each way via desert road.
What is the seafood lunch like?
Your guide takes you to a trusted local restaurant on the Alexandria Corniche. Expect fresh grilled fish, shrimp, calamari, and traditional Egyptian meze served family-style with a view of the Mediterranean. Dietary restrictions can be accommodated with advance notice.
What is the Roman Amphitheatre like?
The Roman Amphitheatre in Kom El-Dikka is a small but remarkably well-preserved marble theatre from the 2nd century AD. Unlike many Roman ruins, you can walk right onto the stage and sit in the original seating. It also includes Roman bath ruins and a villa with beautiful mosaic floors.
Can I visit the El Alamein war memorial on the same day?
Adding El Alamein (about 90 minutes west of Alexandria) is possible but requires an extended tour of 12-14 hours. The memorial and war cemetery are solemn and well-maintained. If this interests you, please mention it during booking so we can adjust the itinerary.
Travel Tips & Guide
Practical travel advice from our local experts to help you prepare for the perfect Egypt trip
Best Time to Visit
Alexandria is best visited October to April when Mediterranean temperatures are 20-28°C. Summer can be humid and crowded with local tourists. Winter has occasional rain but the city has a romantic mood in the mist. Avoid Sundays when the Bibliotheca and some museums have reduced hours or closures.
Seafood Lunch
Alexandria is famous for its Mediterranean seafood — your Bodda guide takes you to a trusted local restaurant on the Corniche. Expect fresh grilled fish, shrimp, calamari, and traditional Egyptian meze. The catch varies by season but the red mullet and sea bass are consistently excellent. Dietary restrictions can be accommodated.
Library Visit Tips
The Bibliotheca Alexandrina is a modern architectural masterpiece — allow 2 hours to tour the main reading hall (world's largest), the manuscript museum, and the Antiquities Museum. Photography is allowed in most areas but no flash near manuscripts. The outside plaza offers excellent Mediterranean sea views.
Roman Ruins
Alexandria has several Roman-era sites including the Roman Amphitheatre at Kom El-Dikka (well-preserved marble theatre), Pompey's Pillar (a 25-metre granite column), and Kom el-Shoqafa catacombs (Roman-Egyptian burial chambers). These sites are within walking distance of each other in central Alexandria.
