    Exploring the ancient wonders of Aswan, Luxor, and Abu Simbel was a dream come true, though the heat in Hurghada was a bit overwhelming at times. The local cuisine offered delightful surprises, especially the fresh falafel and savory koshari, but I found some group meals to be a bit rushed.

    Our journey through Egypt was filled with unforgettable highlights, from the pyramids of Cairo to the majestic temples of Luxor and Abu Simbel. The accommodations were comfortable, though a bit noisy at times, and we found ourselves rushing through meals, which made it hard to savor the experience fully.

    I was blown away by the breathtaking views of ancient wonders and the late-night chats with fellow travelers during my four-day adventure, though the early morning departures were a bit rough on my sleep schedule.
