Egypt
Egypt is a place that takes you back in time—not only hundreds of years but thousands—boasting a vast and rich history. Among the earliest civilizations, it was ruled by ancient Egyptian pharaohs, Persians, Greeks, and finally by Muslims around 1,400 years ago. Of course, it is most famous for its ancient Egyptian heritage, including the pharaohs, pyramids, hieroglyphics, and artifacts; there is plenty of all for everyone to see and be amazed.
Egypt has had a large Muslim population since the 7th century, and there are many treasured mosques throughout the country. The most iconic and world-famous is the Al-Azhar Mosque, which developed into one of the oldest universities in the world. Additionally, the Grand Mosque of Muhammad Ali Pasha, widely celebrated as the founder of modern Egypt, was built in memory of his son, who died in 1816.
Beyond its fascinating history, Egypt is known for its warm, hospitable people, bustling bazaars and cafés, and delicious must-try cuisine that will have you falling in love with the country.

Giza Pyramids
The iconic Pyramids of Giza plateau, just on the outskirts of Cairo, is an ancient necropolis, or cemetery, for several pharaohs that ruled ancient Egypt thousands of years ago. Listed as one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, it consists of three main pyramids guarded by a 4500-year-old limestone statue of a body of a lion with a Pharaoh’s head – the Great Sphinx. If you love history, then you’ll love the new Grand Egyptian Museum – a billion-dollar project with 500,000 square meter space housing around 100,000 ancient artefacts!

Your next stop will be the magnificent Temple of Hatshepsut, the first woman to rule Egypt. This temple was later used as a monastery during the Christian era, which is why it is famously known as “El Deir Al Bahry,” or the Western Monastery.
Your final stop of the day will be at the colossal Colossi of Memnon. These two statues, standing 18 meters high, are the only remaining remnants of the Temple of Amenhotep III. During the Roman era, music was said to emanate from one of the statues, which the Greeks attributed to Agamemnon, the Greek hero.
Luxor
LLuxor, located in the south of Egypt, is often referred to as the world’s largest open-air museum due to its vast array of ancient monuments, tombs and temples. Formerly a capital of the Pharaohs and home to the famed Valley of the Kings tombs, a royal necropolis of the Pharaonic New Kingdom era where, amongst many others, the famous Tutankhamen and Ramses were buried. As you venture inside you can appreciate the elaborate decorations and see the depictions of the afterlife in their tombs. The Luxor and Karnak Temples are amongst the archaeological highlights of Egypt and the most visited sites after the Pyramids in Giza. The temples are thousands of years old and were once the most important and largest religious centers in Egypt. The Luxor Museum contains fascinating ancient statues and artifacts found in the temples and will have you captivated by the absolutely amazing ancient Egyptian history.
