Detailed Itinerary

Evening Pickup & Horse-Drawn Carriage Ride

At 7:00 PM, your Ramasside Tours guide and driver will meet you directly at your hotel lobby in Alexandria. Travel in a modern, air-conditioned vehicle to downtown Alexandria. Board a traditional horse-drawn carriage (Hantoor) for a scenic evening ride along the illuminated Corniche heading toward the Citadel of Qaitbay. Stop outside the fortress for evening photos of its floodlit limestone walls and sweeping nighttime views across the Eastern Harbor.

Ice Cream Tasting & San Stefano Grand Plaza

Next to the citadel area, stop at one of Alexandria’s most beloved historic ice cream shops to sample authentic Egyptian bouza and seasonal gelatos.

Re-board your vehicle and continue along the Mediterranean coast toward San Stefano Grand Plaza. Located in one of Alexandria’s most prestigious seafront districts, this upscale destination features coastal open-air promenades, luxury retail boutiques, dining venues, and sea-view lounges. Enjoy a refreshing walk along the waterfront Corniche to take in the Mediterranean breeze and coastal city life.

Stanley Bridge & Coastal Sights

On your scenic drive back, pause at Stanley Bridge—a modern architectural landmark of Alexandria. Walk across the promenade to capture night skyline photographs of the bridge's illuminated arches reflecting over the Mediterranean waters.

(Optional: Dinner at the historic Greek Club overlooking the harbor, offering classic Mediterranean dishes and sea views).

At the conclusion of the evening, your guide and driver will escort you back to your hotel in Alexandria.
