Best things to see in Egypt

Saqqara, Giza

Stunning to understand that these even preceded the pyramids at Giza...very humbling.

Philae Temple

To think that they moved this very beautiful temple to preserve it is amazing!

Siracusa

I was there as the leader of a Smithsonian group...it was May and Siracusa just simply is, in my view, one of the most beautiful cities in Sicily!

Mandracate

This is THE most lovely place to stay...an old farm, reconstructed to become an astonishing family-owned place to stay and/or dine. The family ...especially mama...is lovely.
