Furthermore, you will not regret being in a place loaded with a lot of ancient history and in contact with a different culture! Are you ready to enter a film world?

Visiting this majestic country is something you can do in the company of several people, especially since you can enjoy places where there is usually an agglomeration of people. First, you must go to visit the Pyramids of Giza, made up of the Great Pyramid of Cheops, Khafre, and Menkaure. No matter how many books you have read how many photos and videos you have seen, you will never be prepared for the sensation of gazing at their iconic silhouettes being this close to them. And when you are under them, and you can touch their stones of more than 4,000 years of history, it will be a magical moment for you!

There will be no better place in the world to teach your children about culture and history than Egypt, you have no idea how much they can learn from their vacation in this great place. So one place you should take them is the Sphinx, the famous sculpture with the face of a man and the body of a lion. Everything indicates that it would represent Pharaoh Khafre, but there are theories in many directions, the point is that your children will be fascinated to hear these stories. Another must-see for the little ones is the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, among mummies, pharaoh treasures, statues, and a thousand and one more surprises, your children will not be astonished when they see all the customs that characterized the inhabitants of Ancient Egypt

You must know that Cairo was not always the capital of Egypt, Memphis was the first and although it is more interesting for its history than for what it offers to the visitor today, you will see a set of necropolises, pyramids, and a very interesting museum.

The Nile cruise is usually done on the section between Luxor and Aswan. In Luxor, there are quite a few interesting visits. For example, the Temple of Luxor, dedicated to the god Amun. It is one of the best-preserved temples and has about 3,500 years of history. An incredible façade with 6 colossi of Ramses II stands out and inside, between huge columns and statues, a mosque and a chapel with paintings of the Christians who found refuge here.

Feel like an explorer from another time when you enter the tombs of Ramses IV, Meremptah, and Ramses IX, they are all incredible. In this same place, you can visit the tomb of Tutankhamun.

As you already know Aswan is the city on the other side of the river when you cruise along the Nile. There you can get to know the Temple of Philae, walk through the streets of the market, fall in buying spices or perfumes, and smoking shisha in a cafeteria.

In this place you can perceive the absolute silence lighting you up only by the dim lights of the few street lights and thousands of stars, and in front of you, centuries of history. This is certainly priceless, it may even be the best feeling you experience in Egypt.

There are so many things to see in Egypt that it is difficult to make a list of must-see destinations, almost all of them are essential. This is also the case with Alexandria, which although today is no longer the great city that it was in the past, is certainly worth a visit. Founded in 332 BC By Alexander the Great himself, this place the largest library in the world was built, they say that it came to house all the books never written before, and the Lighthouse of Alexandria, one of the greatest infrastructure works of the past. The idea is to spend two days here, but if you only have one, there are interesting excursions from Cairo.
