Marvel at the ultra modern interiors as a library guide takes you through Alexandrias crown jewel. Admire the Scrolls and the Antiquities Museum of the Library and continue to Montaza Gardens to see the summer palace of the former king of Egypt. Drive along the beachfront boulevard on the return trip to the ship, followed by a visit to a Papyrus Institute where the procedure of manufacturing the oldest paper in the world, an art discovered by the Ancient Egyptians, will be demonstrated for you.
