join us!

Alexandria isn’t just a city. It’s a film reel, a poem written in stone.

Looking to get to know Alexandria beyond the usual sights? Come walk with us!

On our Ink, Film, and Stone tour, we’ll explore the city’s artistic side, following Fouad Street towards Nabi Daniel Street. Think old cinemas, newspaper offices, beautiful buildings, and stories that deserve a second look. We’ll revisit the golden age of Egyptian cinema and discover the world of Constantine Cavafy, whose poems, including The City, travelled far beyond Alexandria.

So, come explore Alexandria with us, one story at a time.

is it for me?

Are you a cinephile? A poetry lover? An architecture enthusiast? Or just a curious soul who loves discovering the stories behind a city? Then Ink, Film, and Stone might be just your thing.

We keep things friendly, fun, and full of good stories. No boring lectures, no rushing from one landmark to the next. Just a good walk, plenty of things to discover, and a chance to see Alexandria from a different perspective.

Come curious, leave with a few new favourite stories, and maybe fall a little more in love with the city along the way.

what will I see?

We’ll look beyond façades and into the heart of Alexandria’s artistic legacy. Highlights include:

• The Opera House – a cultural beacon where Alexandria’s elite gathered.

• The statue of Khedive Ismail – a marker of Alexandria’s Renaissance.

• Cinema Amir – a fading giant from Egypt’s golden cinematic age.

• The house of Konstantinos Cavafy – a poet’s sanctuary, where verses of longing were quietly born.

And of course, more hidden details, artistic layers, and human stories that bring it all to life.
