Alexandria, Egypt’s second-largest city, is a bustling doorway through which tourists may gain access to the country’s history and culture. Shore excursions from Alexandria Port include a variety of trips to classic places such as Cairo, Luxor, and the Giza Pyramids, allowing cruise guests to make lifetime memories of their stops.
Above all, Alexandria Port Shore Excursions offers tours to the Egyptian Museum, the Pyramids of Giza, and even Cairo’s bustling Khan El Khalili Market. These are just a few of the many interests that cruise passengers have. Additionally, some of the tours go all the way to Luxor, where travelers see the famous Karnak Temple and the Valley of the Kings. These sites are probably two of the most well-known historical tourist destinations in the country.
Pyramids Shore Excursion from Alexandria Port is the most popular tour in Alexandria Port. It takes you to the Cheops, Chephren, and Mykerinus Pyramids, the Great Sphinx, and the Valley Temple. Indeed, for those who desire longer tours, their schedules can be extended to include the Saqqara Step Pyramid and Memphis City. This represents the genius of Ancient Egypt in engineering and architecture.
In fact, for those who have little time, there are quick tours to see both Cairo and Luxor from Alexandria. These usually include the Pyramids, the Museum, and the Khan El Khalili Market in Cairo. Then, they fly to Luxor to see the Valley of the Kings and the Temple of Karnak. Our tour designers created these tours to provide the best experience within a short time, usually two days.
Many cruise ships stopping over in Alexandria offer a few shore excursions. These tours are specially designed to fit in the scheduled cruise time and hence a traveler sees the wonders of Egypt without leaving behind his ship. The common options are day trips to Cairo, overnight tours to Luxor, and comprehensive tours covering both cities.
Giza Pyramids and Cairo Museum tours will introduce guests to ancient Egyptian history. They will take them to see the Pyramids, which include the museum housing the Treasure of Tutankhamun. The Valley of the Kings and Karnak Temple trips in Luxor will offer guests a chance to see the pharaonic tombs. They will also explore the huge temple complexes dedicated to the god Amun.
Khan El Khalili Market is a brisk marketplace. Indeed, it is one of the finest destinations if you enjoy the local culture and purchase a few keepsakes.
Clothing should be comfortable and rather modest, with tours scheduled during the cooler months: October through April. Egypt Fun Tours include transportation, entrance fees, and meals.
These shore excursions from Alexandria Port create a tapestry from the ancient wonders of the Giza Pyramids to the culturally vibrant cities of Cairo and Luxor. This is one of those very few lifetime opportunities to explore the historical treasure of Egypt within narrow frames created by a cruise schedule.

My husband and I visited Egypt in March 2013. First, let me say, ‘Go, go, go!’ – it’s safer and definitely friendlier than many places we’ve visited. Tourism is drastically down – thanks mostly to media misinformation – so it’s a great time to visit to avoid line-ups and crowds
