El Alamein WWII Private Day Tour from Alexandria Port

While most cruise excursions head for the pyramids, this one tells a different Egyptian story, the one written in the desert in 1942.

About 100 km west of Alexandria, El Alamein was where the Allies turned back Rommel's advance in one of World War II's decisive battles. Your guide takes you to the El Alamein War Museum, with its tanks, uniforms, and maps laying out the campaign, and to the war cemeteries where thousands of soldiers from both sides rest in the quiet desert. It is a reflective day rather than a sightseeing rush.

Door-to-door transfers from the port and lunch are included, timed around your ship.

Ideal for history-minded cruise guests and anyone with a personal connection to the North African campaign.
