El Alamein

How to get around

You will find excellent transport services departing from the international airport of El Alamein to reach your desired destination. In fact, visitors can book a hire vehicle for transfers and find it waiting for them directly upon arrival at the airport. Depending on the number of people travelling, it is possible to book a taxi, a minibus or even a larger vehicle that can accommodate up to 35 people. Don't worry about the language of communication: the staff who will accompany you will speak English well.

Places of interest

El Alamein played a very important role during the Second World War. In fact, thanks to its strategic position it played a fundamental role for the British line of defence, as well as being the most north-eastern part of Egypt where the Italian-German powers managed to penetrate. Precisely for these reasons, visitors may find it particularly interesting to participate in one of the many cultural themed tours that are on offer. Visitors can also participate in organised tours, as well as exploring on foot or by bike, thanks to the various and efficient rental services. Finally, the military cemetery of El Alamein is another very important historical site that we recommend visiting.

Best beaches

El Alamein has more to offer than just important historical discoveries. If you have taken advantage of one of the numerous flights to El Alamein and find yourself in this historic town, you might also be interested in having a look at its best beaches, after all, the city is located on the coast. Marassi beach and Green Beach are two of the best beaches, sandy paradises that lead to a crystalline sea. Here you can choose whether to sunbathe, swim or practice water sports.

Typical bars and restaurants

An interesting place to try typical cuisine or spend a pleasant evening is Ruby Tuesday, which always offers tasty recipes and traditional dishes. If, on the other hand, you're homesick for Italy, you must try the classic Italian restaurant "Zucca" in El Alamein.
