Tips from the community

Pyramids. Literal pyramids, thousands of years old. If you're a history buff like me, Egypt is probably already on your mind as a top travel destination. I've dreamed of visiting Cairo, mounting a camel, and taking in the pyramids and Great Sphinx as the sun sets over the horizon. Besides the Great Pyramids of Giza, there are the monuments of Luxor, the Nile, Old Kingdom, and the Red Sea. After all that, I'd probably want a souvenir, so I'd hit up one of Egypt's many souqs!
