Our professional and experienced guide will meet you with a driver in a modern Arabic car and take you to one of Alexandria's most famous sites: Kom El Shokafa, which was found by chance on 28 September 1900. It is worth noting that excavations had started in this area in 1892, but it was only found in 1900 by chance, and this coincidence was done by a donkey, as the donkey fell into the main hole of the tomb at a depth of 12 meters, and thus they knew that there are antiquities in this area and they are looking for the cause of the donkey's fall.
