Day Tour to Rashid From Alexandria

Rosetta City day trip starting in Alexandria, find the location of the Rosetta stone. At 8:00 am our knowledgeable, licensed tour guide will pick you up from your Alexandria hotel and begin your day’s sightseeing in Rosetta, an area of rural Egypt where life is still simple and rustic. Alexandria is 60 kilometers away.

You will get the opportunity to ride a motorboat on the Nile and visit an island, the point where the Nile and the Mediterranean meet, the castle where the Rosetta stone was discovered, and other locations.

The renowned “Rosetta Stone”—a granite stele containing writing engraved in three languages—was found here in 1799, and its discovery greatly advanced the understanding of hieroglyphics.

The city of Rosetta is regarded as a sizable outdoor museum of Islamic architecture. Except for Cairo, no other city has an abundance of Islamic monuments present here.

Unfortunately, the majority of these distinctive monuments are neglected, modern structures are built everywhere around them, and unplanned urbanization has a negative impact on them and does a lot of harm. Therefore, in order to restore the historic character of the city, a significant national effort must be made to save them.

You will be transferred back to your Alexandria hotel at the conclusion of the tour.
