The lion’s share of our Abercrombie & Kent journey through Egypt has focused on the country’s ancient history. That was where we started and where we will end. In between, we explored the current state of economic and political affairs, traveler security, cuisine and more. Today we take a look at little things that were very much a part of the experience but not really something we have focused on, up until now. In this photo gallery, we see some interesting images captured along the way that added up to a big part of what we will remember.
