Cairo, Egypt - After a 9-hour drive from Siwa Oasis, Egypt we arrived back to bustling Cairo to take the overnight sleeper train from Cairo Station to Aswan, Egypt.
Siwa Oasis was incredible, one of my favorite places to go in Egypt, but the wild 48 hours left exhausted and ready for a long train journey to sleep, haha!
I should tell you, there is a much quicker and easier way to get to Aswan - via an 1 hour and 20 minute flight that’s roughly the same cost of this train ticket; around $80 US Dollars or about $1,400 Egyptian Pounds - one way. But, we figure the train also saves us the cost of a night stay, and two meals. Plus, it’s just a lot more fun.
*Also, you can take the same train to Luxor if you don't want to go all the way to Aswan. The overnight sleeper train from Cairo actually stops at Luxor Station first before arriving in Aswan.
The overnight sleeper train from Cairo to Aswan is supposed to be a 12-hour journey, but it very often departs late from Cairo and arrives late to Aswan (which is exactly what happened to us).
We booked our tickets at the Cairo Train station in-person a few days in advance. There are websites that say you can book online, but honestly, I didn't trust the information. I would rather go to the Cairo Train Station and book the train ticket directly.
Overall, the overnight sleeper train from Cairo to Aswan was very relaxing and stress-free. The only advice I would give is to ask around at the Cairo train station before boarding to ensure you are getting on the right train.
That's it! If you have any questions about this trip, please leave a comment and I will be happy to help!

Couldn't agree more 😃
Or maybe I'm biased because I grew uo there.. lol
It was
Now is dirt
I’m Egyptian but I’ve only been to Luxor and Aswan recently, it was such an amazing experience , a lot of people love seeing foreigners here so if we see any foreigner in need we love helping ❤️

This is literally the opposite of almost everything I've heard lol
@@yvess3010 that is literally the opposite of what happends
@@yvess3010 Did you need help and no one helped you? Did you get into trouble and no one cared? We just came back to the US from a two week vacation in Cairo and other areas, enjoyed and loved every minute of it. So I think you were in the wrong neighborhoods and maybe up to no good.
i hope you visit us again this winter ... we love to see how foreigners see us .. we want to be better environment for tourists .. we can't do it without knowing what foreigners really love and hate about us .
by the name of Egyptians , we appreciate what you do and how you show our dear country .
can't wait to see your videos from Egypt next winter ❤
I being loving this Egypt videos as well the Mexico ones. I miss my Mexico. Hi from Canada 🇨🇦 👋
😍😍😍
I am Egyptian and your videos showed me stuff I ve never seen in my home town .. thank you and take care
try to visit Dahab, Sharm el sheik, Hurghada they are amazing places
Welcome to my city, I hope you enjoy your time here, maybe it was better in winter, our sun is not forgiving in summer, but a foloka trip might ease it a little.

I’m glad you got to try out the sleeper train! It’s something that I don’t usually recommend unless travelers have a lot of time on their hands (since it’s so easy to fly and the sleeper train is fairly expensive), but it is a cool way to experience traveling by rail in Egypt.
I am from the US and live now in Aswan. I have taken the train several times to Cairo but will only fly currently. The train is only fun the first time...
Because of your good spirit you will always find someone wanting to help you and make life easier for you in Egypt
Thank you for being respectful. This is the way to travel. That's when you get the better experiences. Countries will always have their highs and lows - but when you're aware of sensitivities and rules, good things come your way.
💯 😊agree
Brother, your energy and attitude to travel and how you got about it and approach it is so refreshing. Love it, keep going.
i hope you're not planning on missing alexandria , it genuinely has the best food in egypt
Thanks so much Gareth 🙏 that you mentioned in this video that the policeofficer 👮 was helpful with you because many RUclipsr complain about them in Egypt 🇪🇬 we love you from Egypt Gareth and can’t wait to see your next video.🌹🌹🌹🌹
Trains are such an interesting way to travel the food looks really delicious too
I love that you guys took the train! What an experience! I also enjoy that you’re so respectful and appreciative of everyone and everything on your travels, and you seem to go with the flow and make the best of every situation. You’re a joy to watch! 🤗
Thanks for not highlighting the annoying things u been through you take it easy laugh and enjoy whats there ur the man hope u enjoy Aswan n god bless ya and yes while in south you dont wanna miss Luxor before leaving
Hope you enjoy your stay in Aswan ❤ It's one of the most beautiful cities in the world ...
Wonderful video!!! We are going to Egypt in a couple of days and our tour includes a two day overnight (first stop Cairo to Aswan). We now know what to expect! Very informative. So excited!
I also love your breezy go with it attitude! Refreshing to see someone not bash and complain about their travel experience!
Gareth - I've been travelling overseas (150+ trips) these past 45 years - and I have to say, your videos are 'hands down', the best for those who want to get the lay of the land, that I have ever seen. Great job. I enjoy and appreciate your easy manner, zero-bullshit reviews, and personal style. I always make 'pre-travel' notes on my destinations - and add to them post-travel. Many of them, now include links to some of your relevant videos. Thanks from 'downunder'!
Always love seeing what sleeper trains are like in other countries. This was pretty fun to watch so thanks for bringing us along. I like the vlog style video too.
I am so happy for you that you are enjoying your time in the beautiful Egypt ❤️❤️
Wow. I'm very proud that my country is Egypt
Welcome to Egypt
Always good to see a bit of genuine silliness when traveling.
Really enjoyed your positive attitude and comments. Loved how you described the sandwich! 😂 Another fantastic video!
Enjoy your stay in our little town, make sure to drink lots of water and put some sunscreen, the weather here is no joke
You're such a kind soul Gareth, I hope you find true happiness in life.
This video made me want to travel badly!! I like the way you added positive adjectives to things in the train. Lol
This looks like such a fun experience. Thanks for a cool vid!

Great video! This brought back so many memories of a sleeper bus I took in India a few years back. Some of the craziest and funnest memories of that trip! Nothing wrong with luxury travel, but you just can't top the crazy stories you earn while roughing it.
I love watching your videos and seeing Egypt through your eyes :)) please try to visit Philae Temple, it is the most beautiful place in Aswan 🥰
Hello Gareth,good to see you again vloggin'that so beautiful place,the food looks good and delicious,take care Gareth and your team,god bless

I love seeing the food that they serve on the train! 🚂🥖Long travel day to sleep little sleeper car for sure!
You are very welcome anytime, you can go there now ❤
Love your videos! You guys have such a positive attitude and because of that everything you experience is a reflection of that! Welcome to Egypt! Try to visit Heissa Island while in Aswan if possible! It's a Nubian Island not too far from Phiale Temple! You will absolutely love it! Bless you guys! 👍👍
Thank you for sharing this amazing experience in Egypt
I watched the whole series of videos in Egypt. I’m glad we had you here and hope you would make it again very soon :)
Welcome to Egypt my guys ❤️
Wonderful Aswan Egypt is a story ❤️😍🇪🇬🇪🇬
Great train ride vlog! Getting lost at the station for a second, but enjoying the experience throughout down to the simple childhood mesh of a breakfast sandwich. 😍
It's still an enjoyable overnight train trip despite a few chaotic situation of finding your platform. It's the experience in travel that counts.
Pretty impressive when two guys can scrunch into that room. :) Great video as usual!
Love this ! I just took this same train to Aswan Yes the food was good 👍🏽
I hope you're having a good time in Egypt. I enjoyed watching your video!
Habibi that was luncheon meat not pastrami..they have basterma..super delicious! Love your enthusiam guys!
Welcome to Aswan, and definitely your deserve thumbs up 👍
I was hoping you traveling via nile Cruise ...the view will be amazing all over the trip ... please try to come back to cairo in a nile Cruise
I was so engrossed watching this video until 7:45 Oh my GOD hahahahhaha 😂😂😂
Looks like you are enjoying your travels in Egypt. Stay safe, man!
Hey man, we have been seeing your videos since we are in Egypt and releasing videos around the same time. I saw you ask someone how they found this private vid, not sure if you know now but it’s probably because you have it in a playlist. We found this out in the past, if we have a video set to unlisted but it’s in a playlist then everyone can find it if they are watching the playlist
In this case it’s actually showing on your home page since you have the playlist there, nice vid too! We did the same ride but the opposite way 👍
Jumping Places... welcome to Egypt, I've been watching your videos when you're stuck in Palawan during the start of Covid. I also follow Gareth Leonard collaborate with Avelovinit when he's in the Philippines. And having Filipino Mukbang in San Diego

منور يا خواجة مصر welcome to Egypt
I am very happy for your visit to my country Egypt, we wish you happiness .
I always love going on an adventure with you! My go to for good vibes! 😎
This channel is so addictive
What a ride!
What a beautiful train station.
Since you came from Siwa Why not go by car from Siwa directly to Aswan and enjoy a 19-hour trip in the middle of the Western Desert and then the Nile Valley An ..experience worth the adventure
Looks amazing. Hopefully I'm going to Egypt next year 👍✌️ ❤️🌍
Thanks for the ride!
Any time!
I hope you are enjoying your time in Egypt 😊
Good to see you back Gareth!

welcome to Egypt , hope to enjoying your travel , 🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬
I’ve missed your traveling videos soooo much! Been following you for such a long time. So happy to see you having a traveling partner now lol.
I love it ... this one reminded me of my trip down to Aswan back in 2011
Man Gareth, I love seeing such positive videos of Egypt. I just watched a vlogger who had a terrible experience with customs et vlogging in public there. I wonder if your being dark haired, dark eyed, et having local guides made a difference in said process… Anyhow, am glad to see this depiction et am hopeful for other travelers…💕💕💕💛
You are very nice Gareth. Despite things not being the best you are still very positive, and that's great quality.
Love your videos, keep them coming. Much love xoxo
I took this trip back in 2017. I thought the room was ok, the food good and slept well. Loved the views, especially as we were closing in on Aswan.
But I had troubles with the toilet, which was sadly very dirty.
Welcome to Egypt 🇪🇬 👏
6:57 i just expected the "welcome to my crib" thing ahah!

Many thanks to you for that lovely and helpful video ♥️♥️♥️♥️ I'll try it next time but for me , I think plane ✈️ or Bus is better so far to Aswan
I'm proud to be from Aswan ♥
The train tour cracked me up 😭😭as a Egyptian the train ain't the best tbh but I really love the experience got some good memories and other thing I loved that u visited Aswan wanted to see you here or there but oh well 😅
Vintage look. 🤣🤣 I flew from Cairo to Aswan and watching this video confirms I made the write decision. 😂
Enjoy man. Stay safe
I love Egypt
Haha when I was in Italy we were sitting on the train and just to make sure I pulled out my google translate app and asked a guy and found out I was on the wrong train ! 😂 crazy confusing
