I'm Egyptian and I see this video was better than a lot of videos on the Internet talking about the harassment in the pyramids and the scammers. I don't know why some Egyptians are mad when someone talks about issues in tourism areas, if you want Egypt to be better you should talk more about these issues not hide it !. Keep going Alan and Shannon you are doing great and honest reviews. One small thing is that the great pyramids of Giza are the only wonder still standing of the seven ancient wonders, i think it's not fair to compare it with the modern wonders. But anyway you have done a great review for the pyramids

As an Egyptian, I wouldn't want you to call them scammers cuz then other people would get worried to visit Egypt while it has nothing to do with the actual experience, as long as you tell them NO, and they stop sooner or later. it's more like sale men, they are trying to make money in a tourism area. I'm glad you've been enjoying it anyways.
@@amv7192 they can get extremely aggressive. You shouldnt really need to tell people no more than once… Making money or not, they can absolutely ruin it for most people
@@Alan_and_Shannon I can understand where you're coming from, but you're in a completely different part of the world, experiencing a different culture. Imagine if I came to your country, called it smelly and dirty, and said people shouldn't go there. That wouldn't make you happy, right? People aren't being aggressive; it's just that you might be too sensitive and soft about it. Please don't feel offended.
Poverty is overwhelming in Egypt. If you go south or north to the countryside you will see it. There is the rich elite and then there is everybody else sadly! @@Alan_and_Shannon

@TheMoorish-Guy it's not like that, they became more suspicious, the thing is that through the recent years we've seen many American "tourists" came only searching for problems! Coincidentally, this only happens when Egypt's politics doesn't agree with US politics! So you know what it means!

Yeah man, it's winter. It's not really freezing, but do bring a jacket or something with you. It does feel freezing at night and in the morning, but good during the day, But do know that it gets extremely colder inside the house than outside as houses are built to release heat from the house. But you'll probably be in a hotel and not worry about that anyways. I'm Egyptian and I just wear a tshirt and hoodie and I'm fine, but I've lived in Europe, so I can handle the cold better than most Egyptians. But it will still get colder in December, January and February.
@@Amghannam okey i understand, im going to hurghada for vacation but we're going up to giza one day to look at the pyramids. Im from sweden so im used to cold weather, we have had like -2 to -10 degrees the last weeks so i don't think im going to freeze to much haha. Maybe bringing a hoodie just in case :)
Giza is the most undeveloped and chaotic city in Egypt, as an Egyptian I cant stand walking inside such streets, too many animal pens, garbage problem, poor infrastructure, I don't know how the country can fix such a city after decades of neglect! it needs tons of money to change it, they're trying the recent years but with the current economy I think it will take some time!
Gotta be careful near the pyramids, i’ve been here and while I can respect the hustle, I don’t like how the touts get very aggressive, and ruin the experience altogether
15:19 This camel guy is so nice and sincier in his free photo just as a gesture of welcoming you. It is so sad to embarrase him and reject his free offer after his assurance
@@Alan_and_Shannon for sure, you can always say no. I just felt sorry for him. Thanks for sharing and glad that you have enjoyed such trip to pyramids

Would you call the sellers on the royal mile in Edinburgh who claim they can tell you the origin of your family name and sell you the corresponding tartan scammers then? They scammed me for sure but I still love Scotland.
Omg ur face shannon at that amazing view - thank god that lady gave u security advice - must be irritating they dont take no for answer - what a fabulous place beautiful but ur brave going in tight spaces - another wonder of world for u guys!! Well done !
As an Egyptian, I think the government should do something about those annoying guys at the Pyramids. My apologies for that; they are just trying to make a living.
Thanks for all the travel tips, I love your vids, you’ve been places I probably never will, wish I’d done it when I was your ages. 👍
Cheers appreciate it🫡 never too late

👍 I advise you to go accompanied by your husband or boyfriend, it is safer for certain populated areas in Egypt, have a good trip.
You are welcome

@@amv7192 we literally said about 5 times in the video that you can just say no, and how easy it is so avoid them…
@@Alan_and_Shannon Yes, you did.
Be careful. Egyptian authorities don't like tourists filming "the not so clean" areas of Egypt.
Definitely means they should clean it up

You have to visit Alexandria, you guys would be amazed by the various shenanigans there, wish you luck and take care ❤
Great video as usually. Thanks.
I'm from Giza
And I'm really sorry for what happened to you. 💔
Your videos are unique
I liked your content ❤
Welcome to Egypt, these people are street vendors and they love their work very much. 💞💞💞💞🌹🌹🌹🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬
Visit Alexandria as well it's a perfect place to visit too ❤
I hope you have a nice time in Egypt ❤
Was it actually cold by the pyramids? Im going there in a few days :D
Freeezing when its windy and toasty when the suns out, pretty good balance to be fair its a nightmare when the suns battering down on you all day!

It started off sunny 😂

Yeah those guys sell a load of overpriced tourist junk
@ it’s a feature of all tourist areas but I think Egypt and Scotland are both well worth visiting
Omg ur face shannon at that amazing view - thank god that lady gave u security advice - must be irritating they dont take no for answer - what a fabulous place beautiful but ur brave going in tight spaces - another wonder of world for u guys!! Well done !
