Rosetta
On arrival, you will be taken to the Rashid Museum, which is one of the original uniquely styled red and black brick houses within the City’s small winding streets. A complete tour of the Museum with your Guide to discover a replica of the Rosetta Stone inscribed in 3 languages: Ancient Pharaonic, Demotic, and Ancient Greek (the original is currently on display in the British Museum). From here, we will take a walking tour around the small local streets and Souq to discover the local life and markets selling their fresh produce of bread, fruit and vegetables, fish, and meats while heading to the preserved Ottoman Homes.

Alexandria
Moving on, discover a second house within the City’s streets and other old house frontages. The House of Amasyali is very ornate and considered one of the finer examples. A further visit to the Mill of Abu Shaheen will uncover a house for trade serving the household and the local community. After your tour of the Houses, you will walk a short distance with your Guide to visit the local ‘Hanging Mosque,’ a unique construction and is one of only a few Mosques in Egypt built on an upper level in order to have storage units underneath for shops and supplies.

Finally, you will take a short drive to the Citadel on the outskirts of the City. It was built around 1479 and lies next to the Nile River with views of the Mediterranean Sea. Known as Qaitbey, it was built as a defense mechanism to guard against attacks by invaders from the Mediterranean. Take some time to climb to the top of the Citadel along the fortified walls to see the lovely views of where the Nile meets the Mediterranean. You will then leave the Citadel and head back towards Alexandria with a stop off for lunch and time to relax before returning to your Hotel in Alexandria.

Rosetta Day Tour From Alexandria: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Alexandria.
How much does Rosetta Day Tour From Alexandria cost?
+
Prices start at $100 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Alexandria usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Rosetta Day Tour From Alexandria take?
+
Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Alexandria is not rushed.
Is Rosetta Day Tour From Alexandria worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 45 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (0/5 across 0 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Alexandria, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Rosetta Day Tour From Alexandria?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Rosetta Day Tour From Alexandria suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Rosetta Day Tour From Alexandria?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Alexandria can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Alexandria and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Rosetta Day Tour From Alexandria start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Alexandria within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Alexandria?
+
On Outty we rank every Alexandria experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Half Day Giza Pyramids and Sphinx, Alexandria Full Day Tour, All inclusive private Giza pyramids,Sphinx & highlights of Cairo. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Alexandria?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Alexandria?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
