Cairo’s an ancient city that also happens to be a modern metropolis—it’s one of the biggest cities in the Middle East and has the traffic and noise issues to prove it. But as long as you’re not looking for solitude, Cairo—the City of the Thousand Minarets—is a splendid place to explore Egyptian history and culture. (Editor's note: Our list was compiled before political unrest prompted many countries to issue travel warnings for Egypt. If you're currently planning a trip to Egypt, please consider the risks and monitor your government's travel alerts.)

If you are staying more than a week in Egypt, you have to see Abu Simbel! It is a long trip from Aswan and you are sitting in an air-conditioned van for most of the trip but WOW. I highly recommend having a guide to point of all of the interesting features about this site. Our pickup time was at 4 am and we went about 7 people in a van. Driver and passenger were nice enough. Even if you don’t want to sleep, you probably will fall asleep at some point. We had one rest stop an hour away from the site. It is 5 Egyptian pounds per person. We got to the complex and our guide met us right where our van stopped. I don’t remember his name but he was a very nice guide. Generally, you have two hours to see the two sites. There is a visitor’s center but I would recommend reading up on everything beforehand if you don’t take a guide. Lake Nasser is beautiful so take a few minutes to appreciate one of the largest man-made lakes as well! You will want to take plenty of pictures. We regret not paying extra to take pictures with our professional camera inside. Outside, you can take pictures with whatever camera you want. If you have more time in Aswan, and in Egypt, you might want to stay the night in Abu Simbel. As said above, the tour is three hours in a van, two hours at the site and three more hours in the van. Two hours at the site was just enough time for us. We really could have been there longer. Aswan is an amazing, quiet little city and it, and Abu Simbel, were the highlights of our trip.

This was an unforgettable trip! It is a jam-packed trip with so many sites & activities, yet it also manages to offer relaxation while you cruise down the Nile in-between stops. Heba is incredibly attentive although there were a few changes about departure times/locations. She went out of her way to make it special for us (I was celebrating graduation & my friend his birthday!). She frequently checked in on us via WhatsApp to make sure everything was going smoothly. We loved our guide Ahmed (be sure to request him!!). His way of presenting information is super effective and I feel like I’m walking away from this trip with waaaaay more insight & education than I have ever had on any other trip. We really appreciated him. Overall the boat was nice and I loved the rooftop deck & pool. The food is ok but it’s fine for what it is and the staff is attentive. So happy & grateful for this experience!
