Hello Travellers, My name is Sameh and I have been working in the tourism field in Egypt since 1992 and traveled to 52 countries and lived in 2 countries. I was trying to find a solution about how to apply the free tour in Egypt such as in many cities all over the world, special in Alexandria city which is one of the amazing destinations in the country. Finally, I discovered the Guru Walk website with the help of an Indian friend who told me about this website. I'll do my best to help everyone by organizing a tour with a different language twice a day. If you need to know any information or details about the city, you are most welcome to write me.

Qaitbay Fort Alexandria indeed is one of the most important defensive strongholds. It is not only in Egypt. but also along the Mediterranean Sea coast. Moreover, it formulated an important part of the fortification system of Alexandria. It was in the 15th century AC. Qaitbay Fort Alexandria is situated at the entrance of the eastern harbor on the eastern point of Pharos Island. It was erected on the exact site of the famous Lighthouse of Alexandria. Alexandria Lighthouse was one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. The lighthouse continued to function until the time of the Arab conquest.
