Stand on the plateau at Giza as late morning light strips the sandstone faces of the Great Pyramid; the wind moves across the desert and the Sphinx watches without blinking. Your private Egyptologist guide pulls history into focus—stone by stone—while the Nile later takes over, carrying the day into an evening of music and lantern-lit decks.
