About this activity
We have often pointed out different tours you should do during your visit to Alexandria. But rarely stopped to think that some of you do not have plans to visit El Alamin area.
We recommend you do a day trip to El Alamein. Located about 110 km from Alexandria where you can meet among others the remains and cemeteries of World War II.
At this spot November 1942 when allied forces under the command of the British General Montgomery put halt to the advance of Nazi Africa corps who considered Al Alamin area to be the key of controlling African continent .
Allied victory in El Alamein battle marked the beginning of the end for the Axis power through the part of North Africa, crushing the mystique that surround the German “Desert fox “ known as Marshal Rommel .
So El Alamein battle considered one of the most violent and most important confrontations during the Second World War.
