Alexander the Great’s Kept Secrets in Alexandria

Unlock the enigmatic legacy of history’s greatest conqueror with Egy Tours’ Alexander the Great’s Kept Secrets in Alexandria. This ancient history tour traces the Macedonian king’s vision for Alexandria, from its strategic harbor to the vanished tomb that has eluded archaeologists for centuries.

Begin at the Serapeum, where Alexander was worshipped as a god-king, and examine the Pompey’s Pillar, misnamed by Crusaders but central to his cult. Explore the Nabi Daniel Mosque, rumored for centuries to conceal Alexander’s sarcophagus
beneath its crypts. Your Egy Tours guide will share recent discoveries from the Hellenistic Alexandria Project, including submerged ruins near Qaitbay Citadel believed to be part of his royal quarter.
The tour culminates at the Alexandria National Museum, where a dedicated gallery displays coins minted with Alexander’s likeness and a reconstructed model of ancient Alexandria’s grid layout.
