😮 not thanks!
Don't knock it before you try it 😁 You can't beat the experience he he
There's many expats Facebook groups in Cairo, and all of them are super helpful I recommend everyone before coming to Egypt to visit those groups and ask for tips. I have been in Egypt for 8 years everything you said is accurate, but we the foreigners have our community and avoid communication with those kind of people, it is much better to ignore and never answer them back or else they won't leave you alone, also a few words in Arabic will save you from the headache as they will think that you're already living in Egypt not a tourist. A good guide makes a huge difference
I am going there in late December and looking forward to it. Thanks for the video
You will have a blast! We enjoyed every single dive and the boat crew was awesome. Loved it so much that we went diving there again last year, but had no time to edit the video yet (go figure). We are getting ready for Fiji next month (September). Hopes are quite high. Wishing you great diving. Thanks for the comments. 👌
Interesting video. And how did you videotape in Museum???
I think this museum should be moved to a new location by now. At any rate, there was this guy sitting on a bench in the back side of the chamber. His function was to make sure nobody videos that room. Well, I sat down beside him and as he, started yelling at people "No video, No video" . I guess he must got tired of me doing his job, he turns to me and says " OK, you go, make the video, but do it quick!" So I did hehe. Afterwards slipped him a $20 - which initially he didn't want to take, but 10 sec later he did appreciate it. Thanks for your comments 👍
Hilarious video, but totally accurate. Looks like nothing has changed.
Thank you so much for your comment 👍
As an Egyptian, I hope you enjoyed your stay
I absolutely did! It is totally different experience when you actually have a chance to feel the energy around you.
Hey listen i live in Egypt and i can tell you its way worse than you have described i have been scammed for over 400k egp about 8000 usd people here they are beggars thieves and scammers they just want to use you and leave you broke
Well, the way I see it, everybody in some way has to satisfy their needs. When one encounters hard times everything is on the table. I don't blame people for being dishonest as I may not know what they are going through. In desperate times we tend to resort to desperate actions - no matter where or what culture. It is up to us to be aware and not get rolled over.
The Egyptians sure love to rip you off. After being in Egypt for 3 times I have learned 😂 ignoring is the best thing to do
Yes, have to go with the flow and make sure not to be an easy target. Being aware really helps.
@@PRospond next time I will wear a tshirt that says I’m deaf and stupid in Arab 🤣
If you want a western style and regulated life please stay in your country of origin...
I don't think it's about wanting western style. It's more about experiencing life. No need to be upset at the situation, but rather embrace and enjoy, of course with appropriate level of awareness.
@@PRospond if it's about "experiencing life" then you need to leave your expectations at home and be open minded enough to respect and appreciate the differences in culture, worldview and propriety...otherwise, as I said, stay at home and watch yt... I find it rather arrogant that tourists bring their own worst behaviour to their holiday places and believe themselves entitled to expect the host country to cater to them. Of course, in most tourist places every effort is made to make their guests feel good and safe.
You’re boring. Basement dweller telling a traveler how to bid his time
Do you have Mustafas contact details
Yes, I do 😁 - Moustafa (Cairo guide) +20 114 839 9776. Please say hello from me if you get a chance 😊 Hope the number is still good. It's been couple years. I definitely recommend him in Cairo. I have another awesome person in Luxor, in case you are visiting there.
@@PRospond Thank you for sharing. Please can I have the Luxor person too.
While in Luxor reach out to "Sam". Haytham Saady - Tel: 010 033 74157 sam.saady.guide@gmail.com He is an actual Egyptologist, extremely knowledgeable and very friendly. Taught us to say "Mefish felus" (among some other phrases) meaning "I'm broke" - just to get rid of all the street peddlers. We had a blast 😁
Don’t go to Egypt unless you go on a tour, people in Egypt fake being friendly but don’t trust them, they just want to manipulate you into doing what they want, they will do anything to get your money! It was a horrible experience having to deal with them. Luckily I was on a private tour and they took care of us. People are very deceptive and abusive. Don’t go in Ramadan, they’re everywhere and are very disrespectful.
I totally agree with you. Being on somebody's turf alone is asking for trouble. We have arranged our personal guide in Cairo (and you should have one too) through Aggressor Travel - www.aggressor.com/adventures/liveaboards and the experience was phenomenal!
Was there in 1987. Crossing the road was a nightmare. Some things never change.
Yes, some things are tough to change. Not sure I'd want to, to be honest. Egyptian culture is their own and at least we can have a glimpse into it while visiting. Likewise I don't appreciate outsiders coming into my country trying to impose their crap. (Just saying)
Wow typical American attitude .. you go to someone else's country and criticize them for how they live .. how about stay in your homeland where it's great and keep your shitty opinion to yourself if you hate it so much . Nobody forced you to visit .. I'm not Egyptian by the way .. but it blows my mind the arrogance of some people
Went there today, I’m a young scuba diver and it was amazing. Went through that tunnel, saw lots of sea life 🌊 🏝
That's awesome! Pier is one of my favorite spots in St. Croix. Glad you had a great dive! Thanks for comments 🙏
Very helpful many thanks!!!
Glad it helped. I just hope for everybody to have a great experience while there. Not knowing some things will ruin your day or the whole trip. Thanks for comment. 🙏
Tourism is ruining these historical sites, and the Egyptian government doesn't give a shit either 😢
Yea, that's very unfortunate. Sites are mind blowing!
Next time you come to the island, we would love to show you some of our favorite spots!
Sounds great! Thanks 😁
We live on Cozumel and hopefully will post a video of our favorite sites soon. The C53 wreck here is what made me fall in love with diving.
I love Cozumel! Always have a lot of fun diving there. 👌 Will be watching out for your vid. Can't wait to see it.
Great footage of the dives!
Thank you so much!
Dude you are a whining Karen! Tight spaces? They didn't build these for entitled tourists. It is a gift to be able to go inside
Dude, you are a
Put me off going
Thanks for your comments!
I was there 6 years ago and yes the vendors are absurd, they make the trip hell with their constant barrage of buy, buy, buy. If you show the least interest in anything they clamp on you like a remora and make experience a walking hell. they follow you for hundreds of feet yelling as if you owe them your life as well as your money. As an Architect I have always wanted to see the pyramids and such but the experience left me cold. Save your money and just buy a National Geographic instead. I expected it so the fact it is dirty and dusty and hot but without our great guide it would have been an absolute disaster. I was accosted at Saqqara and had my scarf ripped from my head and some guy tried to steal my wallet.
Sorry for your bad experience, unfortunately different cultures act or react in unfamiliar manners to outsiders. While Cairo left certain impressions on me, following year (last year) I visited Luxor and had totally different experience. I will be putting out a new video on Luxor after my return from current European trip. Thank you so much for your comments!
Why were you so focused on people asking for money? Not that hard. It is a no, thank you. Move on. Not hard, and I am a girl. Best to have a guide and just keep an eye on your money, but be realistic and don’t focus on the negative. Also grateful I watched videos on the fact going inside pyramids was not a need. I didn’t put myself through the torture. Crossing the street? Also an option. I only crossed with friends. Didn’t expose myself to so much danger. Common sense takes you a long way.
My focus was not on the negative but on bringing awareness to visitors so they don't get taken advantage of. While you sound well travelled, not everybody is. I'm well traveled as well so had no issues with local culture. Thank you so much for your comments!
This country is there to scam you. Sorry for your experience.
Well, I think everybody tries to survive one way or another. I think it's up to every individual not to get scammed. Thank you for your comments 👍
I'd rather be on a beach.
Beach is always a good option... hehe
Honestly, the sad part is that if I always need to concentrate on to safeguard myself, how would I even enjoy? Egypt-pyramids-cairo are so high in worldwide dream travel destinations, that they know you will come anyways. Thats where they take advantage. Your story is helpful to everyone who are planning for it. My fear is even bigger, the crowd I see in the videos that you and others do share. I wish if I could time travel few hundreds of years back and visit.
Yes, who travels to Egypt needs to be aware, however should not let fear take over. It's a great place to visit. Thank you for your comments 👍
Great video, I have learned a lot by watching your videos.
Thank you Charles! You are creating great videos yourself. Much appreciated 👌😊
When you visit any home, don’t go straight to the garbage bin. Try to avoid it and go directly to the reception area ( Sharm, Hurgada, Marsa allam and upmarket areas of Cairo). Just like when you visit the Netherlands do not go to the red light area.
Yes, Hurghada and Luxor are way more friendly than Cairo itself. Thanks for comments 👍
Agreed, best to go to the affluent areas like the sinai and upmarket in Cairo (new Cairo, Heliopolis) to get good service and avoid harassment. Otherwise if one insists on going to local areas like Cairo or markets they must have a guide with them
I definitely need to know how you got permission to video! Headed to Egypt in Dec. TY
LOL that's a funny story - attendant in the room had a bench by the back wall. He was sitting there yelling "no videos, no videos". So I sat next to him, yelling "no videos, no videos". About a minute or two later he gave me an elbow bump saying - "you, go take the video, but be quick" After I was done I slipped him few bucks. They are all wanting to make some extra, but in some cases they are afraid to get in trouble. Initially he did not want the tip, but eventually he was happy to grab it. 😁 Egypt is a great place to visit, just be sure to excercise common sense caution. Sadly, there is a lot of people there, that will take advantage of tourists. Thank for watching and commenting 👍
In the city of Al-Ula, the tourism organization is well organized, and work is underway to build the largest living archaeological museum in the world by building a tram that will pass through the oases of ancient Arab civilizations in Al-Ula, and archaeological educational institutes, cultural and artistic exhibitions, and hospitality services will be held there. Therefore, the idea of developing the city will be amazing for an archaeological site.
That is awesome news! Wonder what is the time frame to get that accomplished? Seem things happen very slowly in Egypt. Cairo museum was supposed to be moved month after my visit last year. Year later still not finished. At any rate, sounds I'll have to plan for a new trip! Thank you for great comment!
👌🏻
Thanks for watching 👍
There thief’s I will never go to Egypt Iam 102
If I was 102 I wouldn't want to jack with them neither. LMAO
i am Egyptian and got stolen in the train station of DC and once in new york... and in paris, morocco and kenya... it is known that tourists wherever can be taken advantage of yet Egypt is alot more than the limited places mentioned but as usual you always stereotype and judge without any knowledge of Egypt and Egyptians....
Weird choice to have the video narrated by a computer voice.
I know right? Sounded better than my own LOL Thank you for commenting
I can help anyone want to change USD at Egypt with a good rate
Thanks for the offer.
Watching the video, there's one question that popped into my mind. Are you allowed to record videos (or takes photos) while traversing the pyramids? I thought that cameras and other recording devices are not allowed in Egypt's most famous tourist locations.
For some reason they don't allow videos in the pyramids - not sure why, perhaps there is another fee they want to collect. Photos are okay. You cannot take a camera inside, however phone is okay. In Luxor on the other hand, they let you take both photos and video, but flash or camera lights are not permitted. That is to prevent deterioration of paint and artwork - which totally makes sense to me. Thank you for commenting!
@@PRospond Thank you for your detailed response, I greatly appreciate it!
@@Il4o1 Anytime! Glad I could help.
Pakistan is just as much fun..
So I heard :) I think India may be also similar in some ways. At least in the ways they drive on the streets. Thank you for comments!
This was helpful...😊 I will never go to Egypt. 😒
Glad you found it helpful. Egypt is definitely different than most countries, but a great place to visit. You just have to be prepared for things that you are not quite custom to. And yes, even though you find it different we have to respect people, their culture and the way they do things. Thank you for comments! 👍
You are not an American tourist, you are a filthy Jhewww who happens to hold the American citizenship , If you hate Egypt and the Egyptians, Who do you bother visiting...... Or is it a mission of the MOSAD.
There isn’t anything to see on the inside, save your money and don’t do it. Get out to the valley of the kings near Luxor to see the colourful inside walls of the tombs.
Totally agree! Visited Luxor Karnak temple, Valey of the Kings and Valley of the Queens couple weeks ago. It was amazing! Blown away by tomb of Nefertari! Colors and paintings look like they were done 3 years ago. Thanks for commenting!
Flying to Egypt tomorrow, going for 15 days :) Thanks for the amazing tips
If you have a choice of place to visit, I'd definitely pick Luxor over Cairo. You don't get the iconic pyramids, but there is so much more to see and appreciate. New vid from Luxor coming soon. Thank you so much for your comments!
Yor kinda a newbie
Yea, last year was my first trip to Egypt so things really stood out for me. This year visited Luxor (vid coming soon) so knew what to expect. I'll take Luxor over Cairo anytime. Thank you for your comments!
This land is cherished by Senator Bob Menendez . he even found gold bars in Egypt.
That is too funny LMAO 🤣 Thanks for commenting 👍
They all understand "fuck off" !
Yea, they probably do, but that is not a nice way to respond to locals especially that we are the guests there. I would not take lightly if shoe was on the other foot so "mefish feluse" should suffice :) Thank you for your comments!
Corruption starts at the top, in Egypt and everywhere.
Yea, if leadership exhibits bad example, then followers will suck. Thank you for commenting.
Europeans and Americans support the fascist dictator Al-Sisi....
Thanks for the heads up ,much respect for your honesty ,Tones NZ.
I'm glad you find this helpful. Much appreciate your comments! 👍
more beggars there than regular folk.
It may appear that way as regular folks don't approach tourists. All tourist hot spots are magnet for scammers. Thanks for your comments!
These are not ethnically the same people that built ancient Egypt. Just so you know..
I absolutely agree. Humanity is losing its ways. We all have amnesia while science dos not want to touch anything they can't explain. Wierd times we live in... Sadly, we are doomed. Thank you for commenting!
Thank you for great educational video. I’m so happy I got to watch it, I’m thinking to go to Egypt soon.
Consider Luxor over Cairo. I just came back from Egypt and this year we went to Luxor. City is much cleaner and much nicer and there is much more to see. Karnak temple, valley of the kings and valley of the queens. Nefretari tumb looks like it was painted 3 years ago. I was amazed. Granted no pyramids but Giza has nothing other than pyramids. I'll be releasing new video from Luxor soon. Thank you for your comments!
@@PRospond great information, thank you 🙏🏽
@@mobattah1708 You are very welcome! Glad this little clip heped.
