    She says that they treat the horses so badly then proceeds to get on the horse. If you disagree with the way they treat the horses don't support the people that you claim are treating them badly. Very hypocritical.

    I personally hated Cairo! I recommend only going to see the pyramids and then rolling right out!! I loved luxor so much, it was a better and more peaceful environment there. I felt the people in luxor operated from a genuine space of integrity.

      Cairo is a lot for the senses. the people at the hotel very nice but it can be a completely different world.
      The people of Aswan - the vendors, had so much more chill - I found that city to be the easiest. Although I had one vendor changing the price and making a scene all other vendors were scores more chill than Cairo and Temple at Kumoumbo- which I found to be a straight up nightmare- I ran and literally to avoid vendors and one ran after me - a completely ridiculous sight - I didn't stop until I got to our boat.

      I had an Egyptian supervisor in Los Angeles, and she felt I was too low level as a Black person to work in the office. She had her law degree, and I had worked there successfully for almost 15 years, but she worked very hard behind my back with management for 2 years to get rid of me, and she was successful after those 2 years. She had only worked there for only about 3 years herself! But she made it her mission! I believe what everybody is saying 😢.

    He wasn't sorry or sincere. He just didn't expect me to stand up for myself.

      There is no dark skinned native! There are the indeginous Egyptians, direct descendants of their ancestors, and there are the Nubians who originally come from what we call today Sudan! Egyptians have a tan color!

      @@Snowfox23 🙄SUDAN, ETHIOPIA AND "LOWER" EGYPT ARE ALL PART OF ANCIENT KHEMIT/KUSH. All were ONE EMPIRE, ORIGINALLY. But, I'm sure you need fair-skinned officials to "validate" history....for you to "trust" the information 😐 (and not "ignorant, Black Americans"😐). So, many European scientists discovered VIA SATELLITE Nubian pyramids which pre-date Giza. The pyramids are buried under tons of sand.
      FURTHERMORE, 10,000+ years ago, Nubians migrated from ancient Kush to Saudi Arabia. Their artifacts were discovered, 16 years ago.
      But, you can continue to assume INVADERS are the "original" Egyptians.🙄

    I traveled with a group to Egypt almost 20 years ago so I can say there’s safety in numbers. One day, while on a tour of a papyrus store, I was checking out the artwork and a salesman tried to kiss me. He got angry when I refused his advances. Another time, I got sick from food poisoning and needed some fresh air by the sea in Alexandria. The group asked a policeman to take care of me while they went for lunch. He was polite but when some of his coworkers stopped by, they made me feel very uncomfortable with their leering. We were advised to dress appropriately with long loose clothing and scarves but the fact we are black women doesn’t help much! The only reason I want to return to Egypt is to finish seeing everything in the large museum in Cairo as there wasn’t enough time. I do a lot of solo traveling but Maryanne, your recent experience in Egypt has made me think twice! Hopefully, I can return in a group again. Enjoy the rest of your travels safely. I admire your courage as a young woman doing what makes you happy as you are an inspiration to others!❤😊
