Walking
If you are starting from the Alexandria Library (Bibliotheca Alexandrina), exit the library and head south toward the Corniche. Turn right and walk along the waterfront promenade. Continue walking along the Corniche for about 1.5 kilometers until you reach the area known as Al Gomrok. You will see signs for ممشي قايتباي (Qaitbay Promenade) along the way, leading you to the entrance.
Public Bus
From the central bus station (محطة الأتوبيس), take a bus heading towards Al Gomrok. Ask the driver or conductor to let you know when to get off for ممشي قايتباي. Once you get off, walk toward the waterfront, and you will find the promenade just a short walk away.
