Egypt is one of those countries that feels like stepping back in time. The ancient wonders of the Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx were as awe-inspiring as I imagined, and I loved learning about their history. I took a cruise down the Nile River, stopping at the Valley of the Kings and the temples of Luxor. The history here is unmatched, and Egypt’s ancient culture is so alive in the monuments and the people. The desert, the river, and the ancient ruins made Egypt one of the most fascinating countries I’ve ever visited.
