Khan El Khalili Walking Tour during Ramadan EGYPT | Egypt Vlog

- Опубликовано: 10 сен 2024
- It's Ramadan in Egypt, a festive time of the year when people are out in force at night and the streets are lit up with beautiful lanterns, glittering lights and colorful streamers. Come with me to the famous Khan el-Khalili bazaar and experience the lively atmosphere, see ancient mosques, monuments and cafes, and learn a little bit of the history of this market on this hour long walking tour of this 600 year old market.
Want to donate to the channel? You can buy me a shawarma! 😂 But really, I just found out this website "buy me a coffee" exists and created an account, because, well, why not? I really just appreciate your support by watching my videos and I'm not asking you to donate, but, if you feel like it, now there's a place you can. Donations will probably just go to me making more street food videos. Here's the link: www.buymeacoff...

Welcome to the channel! My name's Gisselle, I'm a budget traveler and have been to 6 out of the 7 continents, visiting 20+ countries, living for some time in Sydney, Australia as well as in Saigon, Vietnam. I am currently based in Cairo, Egypt and exploring all this beautiful country has to offer, while visiting nearby countries as well. I am a lover of language and a culturally curious lady just making my way through life one day at a time. I live to learn, I love to travel and explore, try new things and meet interesting people anywhere and everywhere in the world. Come along with me as I solo travel the globe and discover fascinating new places, try delicious local food, meet lovely people, and share a moment in time on this beautiful planet, our Earth.

Great atmosphere and one of the greatest aspects of Egypt is it's night time culture where you see families and kids at cafes and restaurants or just walking. This is missing in western countries where people are in doors at night on devices. Egypt is the definition of vibrancy and a culture that retains traditions. Will definitely return to Egypt this year!
That's not true. You see the same in Spain and Australia. It's the warm climate.
@@tuttifrutti5300 In these countries that you are talking about, if no one knows you or you do not work there or if you do not have money, you will die of hunger in the street, or you will have to be a refugee in order for someone to sympathize with you. This is the difference between Egypt and the countries that you brag about. I went to many European countries and I know what I say
Currently visiting Egypt, day 7. For anyone thinking of coming here do not hesitate to, It’s perfectly safe, it’s been a wonderful experience so far. I’m not Muslim but will miss the call to prayer when I get back stateside.
Thanks Gisele for the earlier videos which alleviated my concerns about coming. I almost canceled before I saw your videos, so happy I didn’t.
I know what you mean about the call to prayer! It's hauntingly beautiful, two and half years later and I still love the sound of it. So happy you made it here, what an honor to know I helped alleviate your concerns and you decided to go through with the trip. Egypt is beautiful ❤
Ramadan Mubarak ❤ From Kashmir to Egypt 🇪🇬 ❤
Long Live Misr ❤
Ramadan Kareem! 😊🎉☪
We just returned from Egypt on 3/18/24, being in the country with my wife and our 9-year-old son for eight days. All we can say is what a wonderful place. Your videos helped us prepare for the trip.
Yayyy, that's so awesome! 😍 Thank you so much, I'm happy to hear you and your family had a great time 🥰
A gentle and polite person, we love you
Watch all your videos. I am coming to egypt cairo on 23 march, wish will meet you there big fan from INDIA ❤
Really like the vibe with your videos ❤and how you show our country to foreigners ❤🤩🇪🇬 i wish we have lots of influencers and affective people as you showing the beauty of the country including history , natural resources allover sinai snow , places that look exactly like switzerland and lebanon in sinai and halayb & shalateeen , red sea corals 🪸 white & black desserts even the new administrative capital & elalamein which gives a Dubai vibe ❤ ..Alexandria gives a Greecy Vibe as well our country needs lots of Marketing it's really a hidden gem 💎 even the vibe with Egyptians which is missed from lots of countries ... the food as well ... Every thing to be happy our country deserves to be stronger than it is now ...we deserve to live happily Economically here and have a passport that helps us travel allover the world ❤ ...cause we already have all the world in one country ...Egypt 🇪🇬👌🔥❤️
👍 Agree
Thank you!!! 🙏 What a beautifully written comment. I genuinely love Egypt and love sharing that passion with others. There is so much beauty here, so much life and energy. Egyptians are proud of their history and culture and are truly very warm and welcoming, embracing people from different backgrounds and treating them like family, I'm very lucky to be able to have this experience. And I have so many ideas for videos and things I want to show, my list grows longer every day 😅 And you just added to that list by mentioning the snow in Sinai (it's a good idea to show that next winter if I can), as well as Halayb and Shalateen, I've never even heard of these places, but I am going to look into them now, so thank you! Egypt definitely deserves more positive recognition, and not just for the history, because she is much more than that. She is truly a jewel. I wish her and her people to have all the success and benefits that other nations enjoy, it is well deserved. ❤
من مصر اهلا بيك في بلدي واتمني ان تستمتع بوقتك هنا ❤
I am flying over to Cairo next week for my honeymoon. Watching this puts all my fears to bed!
That's great to hear, there's nothing to fear, Egypt is amazing and Ramadan is a festive time to visit (especially at night!) Enjoy your trip 😁🎉
If it’s your honeymoon try to go to Hurghada or sharm el sheikh for 3 days and prepare your swim suit ❤
Great video ! I love the way you interact with the Egyptian people 🇪🇬
I love it 🎉
hello Gisele, great video. I love it. I think you are showing us the atmosphere of Ramadan in Egypt. I am feeling if I was there. Thank you. I hope to be in Egypt during Ramadan some day. Ishallah.
Gracias Carlos! Inshallah 😊
Wow Cairo is so full of life 😍😍😍 I hope I can visit it at least once inshallah… Ramadan Kareem Giselle 😊🤗
Yeah I love Ramadan in Egypt, and especially Cairo, it is so lively 😍
Wow, I felt nostalgic when I watched this video! Ramadan vibes in Cairo are unbeatable! Thanks Giselle for the amazing video!
Thanks Darcy 😁
رمضان كريم على الجميع 🇪🇬🇪🇬 تحياتي لكم من مصر 🌹🌹😎😎
Allah Akram! 🎉
i never visit that places before , thank you , you help me to knew my country , nice video , nice shots 43:39 🌹
I’m in Cairo right now from the U.S., I wish I could meet you. You’ve been so helpful in my journey and travels of Egypt. Keep up the good work.
Thank you, that's great to hear my videos have been helpful, it's definitely my aim when creating them! Are you traveling solo in Cairo? I like meeting subscribers, I'm a social cat, but I don't know if I'll have time when you're here, I've been working early mornings a lot lately so I haven't been out too late. How long are you in Cairo for?
نورتينا والله
I love Egypt, thank you for sharing!
Great video again , the filming is excellent and enjoyed the tour specially at night with all the crowd , amazing , thank's again 🙂🙂🙂 looking forward to your next video .... Yalla ma a salama

Every year and you are safe and healthy you are a great person ❤🎉🎉🎉
thank you so much for sharing your ramadan experience in Egypt it is so beautiful spirit ♥
It truly is, I love it! 🎉
This video looks soooo festive there! We left Egypt right when ramadhan started. Too bad. Anyway, your Videos helped me a lot when we were there. Thanks a lot!
Awesome, super happy to hear they proved useful for your journey! Thanks so much for watching 🙏❤
They did! Without thinking twice, I suggested my husband to take go-bus to Cairo. We did take go-bus from Alexandria to Cairo. Did not get the big bus but just the mini one. But it worked really well. we also had a comfortable journey. I also went alone to buy some local snack with the help of google, as you suggested. lol. After watching your videos, I felt more secure and safer to be in the country. We will definitely visit Egypt again. Much love from Germany!
Great tour Gigi! Thanks for taking us with you.
Thank you!
Beautiful Cairo
Oh how I miss Khan el Khalili❣️🥹
Damn, beautiful video...😲 greetings 👋
Great video as usual❤Thanks a lot❤❤You are the Best❤❤
Great video as usual..Keep up the amazing work .. I love Ramadan in Egypt but unfortunately I am far away now .. thanks for sharing this historic place in Cairo
Thank you Hassan! 🙏
E+X+Q+U+I+S+I+T+E! ... Ramadan here, must be seen to be believed ... Al hamdu Lillah ... Ramadan Karim, HABIBIS EVERYONE!!! Egypt STILL has its Ancient Egypt Magic still alive! Congratulations on the filming! I want to get there before I go to the Other World!
Nice video Gisselle, you do this so well, blending in with the locals!🫶
Wonderful, colourful atmospheric video - thanks Giselle!
Great video as always, Gisselle. You capture the atmosphere so well, and I love your heartfelt enthusiasm for Egypt and Cairo, and your deep respect for the people.
This video was certainly a feast for the senses, and you carried us through it so calmly and intelligently, pointing out the important features of Khan El-Khalili and their historical significance. Egyptians certainly know how to enjoy themselves, don't they?!!
It's five years since I was last in Egypt, and sharing your experiences here has made me want to go back again as soon as possible. I really hope I can make it this year.
Thank you so much for all your hard work in producing your videos for our entertainment and education. I have nothing but admiration for your infectious style and your flair for giving us what we really want to see. I found myself smiling all the way through this one!
😄William
Aw, thank you! It's really refreshing to hear this. I sometimes feel like people demand too much and always ask for something more or different, and it's nice to just hear you enjoyed the video, appreciated the effort and want to come back to Egypt, I hope you can come back soon ❤ Thanks @mtm4a!
Welcome to Egypt, I hope you enjoy ❤
It’s so wonderful to see you happy and roaming around with colour & joy. I love travelling too.
I wish to see your channel’s popularity growth by right after Eid as You been so passionate for your viewers.
Cheers 🫶
Thank you so much! 😊🙏
Beautiful video and great idea to show us just street during Ramadan. And great explanations. Thanks!
Thanks Joanna! 😊
Hope you make video on saint Catherine area it’s so beautiful and full of spirtual feelings it’s very important area for both Muslims and Christian’s ❤
I have climbed Jabal Mousa/Mount Sinai and made a video about that. Unfortunately St. Catherine's was closed that day so I never got to go inside, but I walked right past it on my way up the mountain
Giselle
Nice Ramadan atmosphere
Thanks 🙏
Shukran Hussein, Ramadan Kareem!
Giselle
I am watching for the video for the 2nd time. As I am texting the festivities are amazing 😻
Nice video , thanks for your efforts to shots this one , you got a new subscriber ❤👍💕, all the way from the land down under Australia 🇦🇺 .
Thanks man! Lived in Sydney a while, beautiful country ❤
This is Egypt and this is Rmadan is an islamic carnival .. kol sana wenty tayba❤❤🌹🎈🎈🕋
Ramadan Kareem! 🎉☪
@@GventuresALLAH Akram
So cool to see and hearing the history is one of my favourite parts, great way to experience from afar. If only I could teleport for a day or two 😄 Thanks for sharing 🖖🏼
Thank you! Happy to hear you're enjoying it, I love Khan el Khalili during Ramadan. It has excitement, activity, ancient sites, it's a sensory feast! 😍🎉
@@Gventures I bet! A special time, beautiful! 💜🌙
I love your videos. I'm going this year for my birthday. I've always wanted to go. It's surprising how little you can find on the internet to give you a feel for a place. Pictures don't do some places justice. You seem so calm in explaining everything and you're just a joy to watch and learn from.
Thank you so much Heather! Yes I agree, although pictures are beautiful and can showcase stunning sights or friendly locals (I love photography), it does little in the way of expressing or showing the vibes and feeling of the street and general life in Egypt. So excited for you to visit this amazing, wild and beautiful country! There are so many different places to see in Egypt, each with different atmospheres. Cairo is a bustling metropolis of course, dusty and chaotic but absolutely humming with life. On the coasts the atmosphere is always a bit more relaxed. Further south along the Nile the villages and feeling of Upper Egypt is quite different as well, with different influences of culture and accents. The oasis and Bedouins, there is just so much to see and so many aspects to this incredible country. I hope you have an amazing trip! Just be prepared for the chaos in Cairo so you aren't caught off guard 😅
Khan Al Khalili is a popular area, so I hope you have an enjoyable trip
Yeah I know, I've been to Khan el Khalili many times in the past 2 and a half years I've been living here, it's always so lively and a lot of fun during Ramadan! 😍
@@Gventures Yes, I wish you a pleasant trip throughout my country’s governorates ♥️🇪🇬
13:16 😂 Bread flies on Aladdin's magic carpet 😂 That was so funny , I cannot stop laughing 😅
... Anyway , Awesome video and Beautiful atmosphere , Thank you for sharing ❤🎉
The bread boys (as I call them) are SO talented, I have mad respect for them being able to drive in Cairo's crazy crowded streets. I made a video at a local bakery showing how they make the bread, they are really hard working men and boys! ruclips.net/video/kESOwu_MMG8/видео.html
Thanks for watching ❤
I’m an Egyptian in Australia, I can’t thank you enough for filming this beautiful vibrant streets especially in Ramadan ❤️ I’m missing Egypt so much but you gave me the chance to feel the vibes 🌹🌹🌹 Cheers❤️
❤Shukran ya Emad, Ramadan Kareem! Hope you can make it back sometime soon for Ramadan in the future
Ramadan Mubarak Giselle, welcome to your second country. Good stay for you all the time🇪🇬❤️
Shukran! 🙏
Nice video's ❤❤❤ happy Ramadan ❤❤❤
Kol sanaa wenta tayeb! 🎉☪
Ramadan in Cairo is very beautiful. The atmosphere is wonderful, especially in the old neighborhoods and historical places.. But I will tell you something strange. People like me who live in Egyptian medium-sized cities in terms of population compared to the very large city of Cairo in terms of population, in which more than 20 million residents live in great Cairo. When we visit Cairo, we feel lost! The lack of identity is like who I'm among these millions of people😅
Haha, yeah Cairo is massive and very densely populated, I am sure it is a shock coming from a less populated place 😅 I love it though ❤
You have been in Egypt for a while and are interested in ancient places. i know that. Egypt has a great history and every part you see today was built over hundreds of years. Also visit new places. Go to Fifth Settlement and Madinaty and also go to Sheikh Zayed. There are very beautiful modern cities that you must see. Also go to the new capital. All of these big cities that I mentioned inside Cairo will not make things difficult for you...but unfortunately, what they offer is in the footsteps of thousands of others and nothing new. Go to new places and cities and let people see the new and not just the old.
The new places you speak of are not in Cairo, but are satellite cities, which are different. I am not interested in going to these places, you are right, I like history. The satellite cities are boring and there is nothing to film there, nothing but new buildings. What is there to do or see there? Do you suggest I walk around and just film buildings? I haven't gone to those places to film for a reason. If you tell me something interesting to do there, perhaps I would be inclined to go there and film. But so far, nobody has offered any insight for interesting things to do in any of those places.
@@Gventures Well those videos of people walking through cities get good views so maybe it's not a terrible idea.
@@s_mavi What videos? Walking tours? My channel is not solely a walking tour channel, in fact, most of the time it is not. Even in this video, although I give a "walking tour," I was talking with people, giving information, interacting with people. I'm a vlog channel, not a walking tour channel. But I have a good friend who was a RUclips channel that does walking tours, maybe I will recommend him to do this. But, personally, will have nothing to say or do out in those satellite cities. They are just far away, which means I will have to take a day off work to go out there and film, I will have to drive all the way out to these cities, and then....walk aimlessly around with nothing to film except buildings. It just doesn't sound interesting or exciting.
I was there during last Ramadan.it was so crowded at night ,just like judgment day!!!!
Lol oh I know! I have seen it 😧
Arabs have lovely culture.
Egyptians not arabs , DNA of egyptians 8000 years , arabs 3000 years also Moroccans are not Arabs, Berbers but speak arabic
the people look like Arabic people and culturally similar to other Arabic countries. Not to mention the language is Arabic. Egypt was probably conquered a few times over in that long span of time. I just assumed everyone there were Arab not of any African decent as Egypt is an African country. @@Prinze_raki
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE your style and your channel. I would love to see you reach 1 million subscribers at the very least. You deserve that! ❤🎉🎉
I would love that too 😅 Thanks man!
Hi gisselle, I'm john from ireland I love your video's you are so honest about the good and not so good about egypt.i have spent many ramadan s in egypt and it's a magic time.today is st Patrick's day in ireland,so happy to st Patrick's day cairo.keep safe love x
Thank you John! Yeah Egypt is so much fun during Ramadan, I absolutely love it ❤ Happy St. Patrick's Day!
I like how you deal with Egyptian culture and your language. It is easy to understand even for me with a German native language.
Oh that's great to hear, thank you! 🥰🙏
Hi i like the way of explaining city and everything good job👍👍 im from yemen i hope you enjoy living in cairo all the best
Thanks
Thank you for your priceless efforts to demonstrate the beauty and good aspect of Cairo night 🌉 life.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Allah akram❤🎉🎉🎉
Great video! You captured the vibe of the celebrations very well just by walking around. You should try and do a video of the Coptic feast during Easter at one of the churches. 👍
Already planning on it 😎
@@Gventures 😎 Legend. Just found you on Instagram too👌
Hi Gisselle, I just watch your video clip of Khan El Khalili bazaar here. That was wonderful and helpful to see, thank you. We will be in Cairo next week and stay near to downtown for couple days. We plan to go to Egyptian Museum and visit the Khalili market and mosques around there but not quiet sure whether to go to Museum first or visit the market and mosques due to the busyness and the hot weather. I would love to hear your thoughts about that. Thanks again
Hi Kim! Well, not sure what kind of weather you are coming from, but it's not super hot yet in Egypt, it's actually quite nice weather, in my opinion. Regardless of the weather, definitely see the museum 1st. The museum has a closing time, as do some of the mosques, but some of the mosques do not. Especially for the market, I recommend going later in the evening or even late at night. During the day it's pretty quiet. If you want quiet, then I guess going during the day is okay. But if you want to see it alive and full of people, going at 8 or 9pm and staying for a few hours, it is much more active.
wow, you are quick! I haven't finished watching another of your video and already got your response. I will definitely go to Museum first then check out market and mosques since it might not safe to go out at night esp in the city. BTW. I loves your videos, they are very helpful, keep it up. Thanks again and take care
@@kimyng8449 Lol, yeah I try to stay active in the comments, and I like interacting with people anyway and show my appreciation for their support. I personally don't think Cairo is dangerous at night, in fact, it's quite lively and a lot of fun! Of course, I mean in busy and active areas, like downtown Cairo or Khan el Khalili market. I wouldn't recommend going to a poor, local neighborhood or a deserted area at night, just like I wouldn't recommend doing that anywhere else in the world. But walking around at night in the market or in downtown Cairo is fine, just as walking around Times Square at night or busy areas in Paris or Rome is fine. In fact, I think you have to worry less about theft in Egypt than you would in many of the other big cities I just mentioned. But of course, just do what you feel comfortable with, I am just giving my own impressions of what is safe. I go out late all the time and am totally fine, so you don't have to worry. Thanks again for watching! 😊
This may be an odd question but are there many women in the workplace in Egypt? Every time you pass a shop it seems like it is only men working there. Is retail considered men's work and women work elsewhere?
There are, but there are far more men working in general, especially in shops, restaurants and hotels. I've seen women more women usually in offices and retail clothing shops. It's kind of similar to India in that way
Hello from Marsa Alam and Hurghada riding my bike
Badass! 😎 Safe travels amigo
Cool vid! I see you love Egypt.
Aywa! Shukran 😁❤🙏
رمضان مبارك وكريم
Allah Akram 😊
Free 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸
I hope you can make episodes for good hospitality manners and how to modify our etiquettes when it comes to treat others🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Hope your channel is growing fast
Me too, thanks!
Oh my god it’s very crowded these days 😂 but I love the atmosphere I went before Ramadan was less crowded 😂
Yes Ramadan nights are always busy 😊
❤❤
Great video!!!
Hii Sis I love your videos keep going 💕
Shukran 🙏🥰
Next year can you please give us a look at Christmas in Coptic Cairo?
If I'm in Cairo around that time, sure. I was just talking today with a friend about how I need to start showing some Coptic side of stuff, which means I need to do more research. It's a lot of work sometimes, having a RUclips channel 😅
@@Gventures- All that hard work truly pays off, Gisselle. You make such wonderful and meaningful videos, and the comments which your viewers leave here are testament to your dedication.
@@mtm4a Thank you! That is true, the comments are overwhelmingly positive, which is inspiring 🥰 I love humans 😁❤
Try to visit North Coast their are many amazing villages their like Maria and marasi, etc.
North Coast? I'm not rich man 🤣 No way I am going there
@@Gventures oh okay 😅I agree with you it's really expensive, but not all villages
i love you❤
Is this market open during the day during Ramadan?
Yes it is, but it is way more quiet during the day and not all the shops are open. I recommend going at night if you want the full experience.
Go to Kurdish cities in Turkey Iraq and Syria next.. Ramadan Kareem 🌙
10:21 Zamalek Jersey ❤️
That dude at 624 😂😂 it seems women are real shy there
🤣Lol I know, I love that guy! I watched that clip a few times while editing because it had me laughing (obviously I had no idea he did that while I was filming). And yes you are correct, most Egyptian women are very shy.
Thank you for another fab video. I am slowly binge watching your Cairo videos now I have booked a trip there. I nearly cancelled my trip due to all the negative things I have read online, however your videos have changed my mind. I'm just going with the mindset to embrace it all!! Have you been to new Cairo? Do you plan to do any videos on the comparison?
Oh wow, well I'm honored to have been able to show you my experience here and my love for Egypt, and I hope you enjoy it as much as me while you're here! The internet is full of nay-sayers and fear mongering, in reality it's nowhere near as bad as people make it out to be. In touristic areas you'll find many annoying vendors, yes, but that's it, and you can just ignore them. Or you can put your hand over your heart and say "La, shukran" while continuously walking and only brief eye contact (if any at all). I have found this approach tends to work the best. It's not always going to work of course, but they tend to respect that refusal a bit more. And sure the younger boys (and some men) tend to stare or ask for photos, but it's not dangerous, and most every day Egyptians are very kind, welcoming and friendly. About New Cairo! I have no immediate plans to go out there and film. Mainly because it is far away from me, so I would have to take a day off of work to go out there and record, and I have nothing to film or do out there. As far as I know, it's just a rich area where people with money live, and some fancy buildings, compounds/gated communities, malls, and expensive restaurants. So, because none of that appeals to me and it sounds boring not only to film but also to watch, I haven't done it yet 😅 But eventually, at some point in the future, I plan to go to these satellite cities outside of Cairo and walk around and film and hopefully something interesting happens in the video 😆
that monkey was so cool.😁
and the bread vendor boy cycling fast with one hand carying that big thing with the other through that crowd.
thank you, good one ❤
Yeah man, I love CAIROOOO ❤️❤️❤️
@@Gventures
it's full of life, good energy.
as your arabic becomes better you will enjoy more. their arabic accent is the easiest to learn.
you know these guys are the same we see in movies, no make up 😁
What camera did you use? The Go-Pro? Really good colors and sounds 👍🏻❤️
No I'm actually using the came camera I always use in my videos, the Sony FDR x3000. Thanks I'm glad to hear the sound and colors and good 😁
To be honest with you, you supposed to be minster of tourism instead those bastards
10💕
I am planning to come to Cairo in November alone and was wondering if it was safe
Yes I think it's totally fine, you won't be in any physical danger walking around here by yourself.
@@Gventures thank you so much for your reply I was only worried because I am only 19 and travelling alone and I don’t want to get into any trouble
@@CuriousG-is3dl Okay. Well I suppose that info does matter. Since you're very young I doubt you have a lot of experience traveling, and maybe not much solo travel. Have you ever been to a developing country? Are you a man or a woman? Because although I do not think Egypt is physically dangerous, a lot of women do complain about verbal harassment here and I know it can make a lot of women uncomfortable. And in general, Egypt is usually pretty overwhelming for a lot of tourists, even well traveled ones. You can do it alone, I just want to make sure you know what you are walking into. Egypt (and especially Cairo) is a very chaotic city. 6th largest in the world and still developing. Traffic is crazy, there are virtually no laws (that anyone follows), few pedestrian crosswalks, and lots of honking and noise and general street activity. So just be aware of that please. I don't know anything about you, what you're comfortable with, or your past life experience. But you need to take all of these things into consideration before coming here alone.
@@Gventures I have only traveled to Paris,Berlin and Los Angeles alone I am from Australia and I’m a male.
@@CuriousG-is3dl Okay well it's good that you're a guy, it will be easier than if you were a girl. It's very safe here, but always be cautious with your belongings just like you would anywhere in the world. But you do need to watch out for scams, because there are many people that will take advantage of you by charging you too much for something or coercing you into taking a tour or entering their shop and stuff like that. But I wouldn't say it's dangerous. I am sure you have been watching videos about Egypt and you have seen mine, so you are expecting chaos. Like I said, it is overwhelming to many people that come here, and this is going to be your first developing country, so it is going to be a lot. Most people don't choose Egypt as their first developing country 😅But you can totally do it, and I've met a woman from the US that came to Egypt and it was her first time out of the US, she loved Egypt. But she did have a guide helping her. I'm not saying you need one, I just really don't want you to be shocked beyond belief when you arrive. So imagine like you are going to India, and then Cairo will not surprise you that much 😆
beautiful ! i remmeber you went to Dubai to buy a new camera right ? why not upload in 4K ?
I've always used 4k, my Sony FDR X3000 films in 4k. I'm using my old setup because the new camera is better for riding, not for vlogging. Not good at night, too dark. Mic doesn't work because it's too large and in the view, etc.
On Friday, March 22, at 10 PM, there will be a soccer match in the New Olympic City, New Administrative Capital stadium. This stadium will host its first-ever match. It's supposed to be full of people-90k. Hope you won't miss out on this ceremony.
Wow, that sounds awesome, I wish I could go, but it's pretty short notice. Not sure I could go, I have work the next day. Also, where to get tickets, and how expensive is it.
@@Gventures OK! I have just looked it up, and it turns out that they have postponed the opening of the new stadium. The match will now be held at Qairo stadium instead. So, I think it won't be as important of an event anymore. But stay tuned for the opening. More likely, the opening will host a big event such as Ahly vs Zamalek - the two biggest clubs in Egypt. It could happen at any time in the coming months.
@@shsh12345 Oooh yes I know these teams, and I have actually wanted to see a match for quite a while now. I will try to pay attention to when the stadium opens, but if you hear about it first...let me know! 😅❤
What happened to your own scooter?
Nothing?
@@Gventures it broke down or what
@@mandlas.4305 No....I just didn't want to ride it to the market. I say that at the end of the video
@@Gventures oh okay. Sorry I missed that part…I was worried it broke down or got stolen.
@@Gventures why don’t you visit a place like Cape Town in South Africa? You’ll love it Giselle. You would end up moving there, good people, good food, peaceful, no hustlers, spectacular weather and amazing beaches
With Gisselle I found out how beautiful Cairo is.
Where's ur bike ?
1:02:15 yeah it's like a maze 😂
I don't like driving my bike to this market, it's too crowded and I don't trust leaving it there for a long period of time. But don't worry I still got my bike 😅❤
R u live in Egypt 🇪🇬?
Yep 😁👍

@hazemhassan9932 - Oh wow, I thought the same thing - it was very spooky, and he surely risked being run over!!

Because this isn't Sudan? I don't know the population, google it. Why are you even asking this or why do you care
