As an Egyptian, I rate this one 10/10.

You will see so many temples, tombs, and antiquities that no matter how dedicated you are, it will start to blur together. Anytime you go to a new site or new tomb, find a sign that depicts what you are about to see, and grab a quick pic of the sign, first. It will help to keep your photos; and your memories; organized. I recommend getting a tour company. There are some sites that cannot be visited without governmental approval. Abydos and Dendera are two. An official guide company can take care of that for you.

I have watched so many tips etc on travel to Egypt (we will be there in very hot August) - but yours is the best, and what nailed that for me was your tips on dress, language and most of all
to TREASURE the experience! Shokran gazeelan!

Thank you so much for your amazing video. I think you covered everything there is to cover about Egypt. My tip is: if you can afford to hire a travel company or go with a group tour, that would be the best option. The country is massive and can be ridiculously hard to manouver. Having a guide with you will take a lot of hassle off your shoulders and you would just be left to relax and enjoy. Even as an Egyptian, that is what i do to enjoy my country.

Thanks for posting. I spent 2 weeks going up and down the Nile, after 3 weeks on a paleont. & archeolog. project in the western desert and loved Egypt. In 1992. Lucky to have been first in the Western Desert village where I learnt a little arabic to to know some Egyptians.

I love Egypt been there many times it feels like home. Hugs

You're absolutely right about being transported to a time when magic was a part of life. Read s "Arabian Nights and Days" by Nobel Prize winner Naguib Nafouz who " refashions the classic tales of Scheherazade into a novel written in his own imaginative, spellbinding style. Here are genies and flying carpets, Aladdin and Sinbad, Ali Baba, and more". It tells you how people used to think and feel and still run their daily lives. Much shorter and more fun than the very long "Palace Walk"

Love the content. Keep going. Going to Egypt for a couple of months in two days and I found this one really interesting.

Thank you so much for this lovely positive video. Very helpful tips - we leave next May. I'll spend my birthday in Cairo!

[wesamhamdi]

Thank you so much 😊I'm Egyptian and enjoyed your video a lot ....What I really liked about it is that it has a full, honest review of my country without any biased opinions .. Now I can send it to my friends who will be coming next month .. Thanks again, and I hope you return here so soon❤ 🇪🇬

[juliebooton]

Thank you for your tips and tricks! Tipping was mentioned a lot during the video but not the actual amount or percentage. Presumably different amounts are needed for a small service as opposed to a tour guide.

[amazingplaceswithamy]

Great video, thanks for the tips! I'm looking forward to my Egypt adventure in May.

[BERNARDO]

This is a really good vid.

[noelreynolds]

This was by far the best travel Egypt video I have watched to date! It was informative, realistic, while being respectful. I'll be checking out this channel.

[solob]
