Cairo to Alexandria Shuttle Service

Book a transfer from Cairo to Alexandria — Egypt's Mediterranean jewel, a 2,300-year-old city founded by Alexander the Great that was once home to the legendary Lighthouse and Library of the ancient world.

What to Expect

The 220 km journey takes 2.5 to 3 hours via the Desert Highway heading northwest from Cairo through the flat Nile Delta agricultural zone, with fields of cotton, rice, and sugarcane giving way to the outskirts of Egypt's second-largest city on the Mediterranean coast.

About Alexandria

Alexandria is Egypt's Mediterranean face — a cosmopolitan port city where ancient history meets crumbling European elegance. The modern Bibliotheca Alexandrina pays homage to the legendary ancient library, the Citadel of Qaitbay stands on the site of the ancient Lighthouse (one of the Seven Wonders), and the Roman catacombs of Kom el-Shoqafa blend Egyptian, Greek, and Roman funerary art. The Corniche seafront promenade stretches for miles, the historic cafes of the downtown district preserve a faded Belle Epoque charm, and Alexandria's seafood — especially grilled fish at Abu Qir — is Egypt's finest. The city inspired Lawrence Durrell's Alexandria Quartet and Constantine Cavafy's poetry.
