Bespoke Journey to Egypt & Optional Alexandria Diving Underwater Archeology
8 day or 10 day with Alexandria diving
‘Alexandria has been a dream of mine ever since I first went to Egypt in 1997. Seeing and visiting all the amazing tombs of ancient Egypt, riding a camel in the Valley of the Kings and climbing to the top, inside of The Great Pyramid, spellbinding to say the least. I since learned about the more recent discovery of what lies in the underwater world on the shore off Alexandria! The Lost Ancient City of Thonis-Heracleion and Cleopatra’s ruins.

http://www.nationalgeographic.com/events/cleopatra/underwater-world/IF you are a keen amateur Egyptologist and scuba diver, this is a must do experience! The focus would be the lighthouse site. It is great for anyone doing an archeological dive for the first time. Cool old stones from the city – some sphinx’s – all sorts of columns from various time periods – even some walls with hieroglyphs on them. ‘
