Great Pyramid: Giza, Egypt
Experience the Great Pyramid, one of the Seven Wonders of the World, on a self-guided, private or group daytrip from Cairo that also includes the famous Great Sphinx. The 481-foot-tall monument is composed of an estimated 2.3 million stone blocks that each weigh up to 15 tons, a feat that still baffles engineers today. Built around 2550 B.C. by Pharaoh Khufu for his afterlife, it was soon joined by two other major pyramids built by Pharaohs Khafre and Menkaure within a burial complex at Giza that includes other temples and a palace.

Moai: Easter Island, Chile
Easter Island's moai, larger-than-life ancestral figures carved between the 10th and 16th centuries, have intrigued historians since 1722, when a Dutch explorer stumbled upon them while visiting the island. The approximately 900 moai statues and 300-plus ahu (stone ceremonial platforms) carved of lava tuff are awe-inspiring. Each moai stands up to 72 feet tall; the unfinished El Gigante megalith weighs 160 to 182 metric tons. Although you'll likely spend the bulk of your visit admiring Easter Island's impressive moai statues, be sure to also check out the mysterious ceremonial village of Orongo and various caves decorated with rock art, pictographs and petroglyphs.

Iguazú and Igaçu national parks: Argentina and Brazil
These national parks, home to one of the world's most incredible waterfalls, sit on the border between two South American countries. The name appropriately means "great water." Iguazú Falls – or Iguaçu Falls, as it's called on the Brazilian side – is divided into 275 cascades of water, forming a nearly 2-mile-wide horseshoe shape that's significantly wider than North America's Niagara Falls and Africa's Victoria Falls. A subtropical rainforest flourishes around the waterfall, brimming with wildlife such as howler monkeys and jaguars, so there's plenty to explore in this stunning landscape.
