Stacy, New York Â
Stacy grew up in a small town, so traveling always felt out of reach for her. But when she became a world history teacher, she decided that she wanted to experience the world for herself. So she decided to explore Egypt with Intrepid Travel. With a local leader to guide her to all the places she’d read about (as well as off-the-beaten-path places she’d never heard of) and a group of people to share the experience with, Stacy was able to gain first-hand knowledge about the world and bring that back home to her students.
Stacy's Top 5 Egypt Experiences
5. Seeing the pyramids
Stacy had read about the ancient Egyptians and the pyramids, but she never imagined she’d get to see them in person.
4. Learning from a local
With a local leader to guide her and her group, Stacy felt like she always got the inside scoop on the local history and culture.
3. Exploring cool Cairo
From the Egyptian museum to the trendy shops, Stacy discovered the best of ancient and modern Cairo.
2. Touring ancient temples
Stacy experienced history come to life as she admired the immense carved facades and intricately decorated halls of Abu Simbel.
1. Sharing the experience
For Stacy, half the fun in visiting a new place is finding like-minded people to share her wow moments with.
