On a bright morning at Giza, the desert air tastes of dust and warm stone as the pyramids cut hard silhouettes against the sky. Travelers meet a guide, pass through the Sphinx’s watchful gaze, and step from modern Cairo into an 4,000‑year span of history. Over six days the journey threads through Cairo’s museum rooms, the sleeper‑train hum to Aswan, and a five‑star cruise that eases northward past temples and riverbank fields.
