Starting off my Egyptian odyssey with a full-day visit to the legendary pyramids of Cheops, Chephren, and Mycherinos was a surreal experience. My first glimpse of the Sphinx, one of the seven wonders of the ancient world, was mesmerizing. The ancient site of Sakkara and Memphis, the ancient capital of Egypt, were both teeming with secrets of a bygone era. A free walk at Khan El Khalily in the evening was a delightful conclusion to the day.
