When the crowds fade and the sea grows quiet, the Citadel of Qaitbay stands illuminated against the Mediterranean — not just as a fortress, but as a storyteller.

This is where Alexandria speaks… through light, sound, and memory.

Your WOW TOURS EGYPT guide will meet you at your hotel in Alexandria and transfer you in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle to the Citadel of Qaitbay.

As you approach the waterfront, the atmosphere shifts. The sea breeze, the sound of waves, and the sight of the fortress glowing in the dark create a setting that feels both calm and powerful.

Before the show begins, take a moment to stand before the citadel.

Built in the 15th century on the exact site of the ancient Lighthouse of Alexandria — one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World — this fortress carries layers of history within its walls.

As darkness falls, the Qaitbay Citadel transforms into a stage of light, music, and storytelling. The story of Alexandria unfolds—pharaohs and sultans, sailors and scholars, moments of power and legend brought back to life.

The fortress walls glow against the night sky as sound and light move across the stone, guiding you through centuries of history and culture.

This is more than a show—it’s an immersive journey through time. With the Mediterranean breeze around you and the citadel illuminated under the stars, Alexandria doesn’t just tell its story… you feel it.

After the show, take a quiet moment by the Mediterranean.

The citadel remains illuminated, the sea reflects the lights, and the city feels different — slower, softer, more reflective.

After your evening experience, you will be transferred comfortably back to your hotel.

A short journey — but one that leaves a lasting impression.
