My grandparents long wanted to visit Egypt together, but sadly, my grampa died before he had an opportunity to see this North African country for himself. In 2010, my grandma will finally see the Nile, climb the pyramids…and miss her husband very much on this trip of a lifetime.
Don’t wait to travel…go soon.
Here are some resources to help you plan your own “travels with two” to Egypt.
