Starting with a pickup at Alexandria Port, where the Egyptologist guide will meet the group at the cruise exit, a fullday trip has been arranged. Drive in a private air-conditioned automobile toward Rosetta, a historic city in the Nile Delta.
Start looking at Rosetta's extensive past once you arrive, visiting traditional Ottoman homes with wooden lattices. See a replica of the very well-known Rosetta Stone and discover how it was the key to translating ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs. Then walk along the Nile Corniche and enjoy the peaceful sights of the river to see the local day-to-day life. In a historic mosque, find how Islamic design and cultural layers combine in the city.
Lunch may be set for your choice at a nearby restaurant serving classic Egyptian food. You will be transported back to Alexandria Port in time to rejoin your cruise following a nice slow stroll and gifts. Away from the typical visitor routes waits an unusual interlude of history, culture, and beauty.
