Explore Egypt individually – Our experience at the Pyramids of Giza, Saqqara & Co.

The Egyptian pyramids are among the most fascinating monuments in human history. While many tourists opt for guided tours, we opted for a more flexible adventure: With a rental car, we explored Giza, Saqqara, Dahshur, and the ancient Egyptian Museum at our own pace. This allowed us to experience the magic of these historic sites away from the crowds. But how practical is such an exploration really? What challenges and highlights awaited us? We share our experiences, tips, and valuable information in this article.

What sights in San Francisco on a short trip?

I have visited the California metropolis of San Francisco several times, but the city is still worth a visit. Before my departure, I had something to think about due to the strong air pollution caused by the forest fires in the immediate vicinity (November 2018). You can find out whether my worries were justified and which sights in San Francisco I saw on the short trip in the following travel report.

Unser Besuch an den Niagarafällen: Ein einzigartiges Naturerlebnis

Nach einer erlebnisreichen Zeit in Toronto machten wir uns am frühen Nachmittag auf den Weg zu einem der größten Naturwunder Nordamerikas - den Niagarafällen. Obwohl die Strecke nur rund 130 Kilometer beträgt, benötigten wir fast zwei Stunden für die Fahrt. Der dichte Sonntagsverkehr und der bevorstehende Victoria Day - ein kanadischer Feiertag - sorgten für viel Betrieb auf den Straßen.

Experience Toronto in changeable weather

Unser Tag in Toronto begann mit schlechtem Wetter, wie es der Wetterbericht vorausgesagt hatte. Der Blick aus dem Fenster zeigte tiefhängende Wolken, Regen und Wind – keine optimalen Bedingungen für eine Stadterkundung. Wir änderten spontan unsere Pläne und beschlossen, den Tag mit Aktivitäten drinnen zu verbringen.

Just around the corner is Ann Arbor, a charming university town with cosy cafés, independent bookshops and green parks.
