What happens when an Israeli visits Egypt?

Egypt and Israel are not exactly on the best terms. So if an Israeli visits Egypt, what is the reaction?

The answer was quite consistent: Israel

But I spent two weeks traveling across Egypt, interacting with many different people, and my experience was a lot more nuanced. Watch the video to find out more!

There were also many other interesting moments not caught on camera. if you want to know more about that and anything else about Egypt travel, ask away!

We don't have issue with jews they are our brothers but we have many issues with the occupation ( stealing our land ) .. Free Palestine 🇵🇸

I'm Iranian, and my best friend is Egyptian. I love Egyptian people, and I love the history of Egypt. Persians have a lot of respect for Egypt.

“In war, there are no winners. Everyone loses” very true statement

I spent close to three years in Cairo when I was younger. LOVE Egypt with all my heart. Glad you got to visit!

i like that the people made it clear that they didn't like the fact that you're israeli but they still treated you with kindness and respect

[AROMAULTIMATHULE]

When you hide your Jewish identity and the guy greets you with shalom and laughs. 😂

So sweet you talking to the children. I had similar experience in Tunisia telling people that I was born in USA grew up in Canada and that I had Jewish friends. They did not believe that Jewish could be a friend at first but through conversations we could shift that. You are a true peacemaker. Nice work.

I'm glad i made it to the end of the video. Beautiful message, praying humanity prevails for all sides during this very difficult period in history

I love how that one Egyptian salesman said "Shalom" to you with a smug smile and eyeraise before you even say you're Israeli and then he sells you a kafiya

[stripemcr]

Really enjoyed watching this - people seem to be very friendly and welcoming outsiders - aSHALOMaleikum!

[mikefilimon]

Were you claustrophobic in the pyramid especially climbing down?

[FahedAhmed]

The great egypt, the impressive Egypt, the mother Egypt.
I can't tell how much I feel proud of Egypt as a country and history and man.
Love from Yemen

Such a good video honestly, enjoyed watching every bit of it and I appreciate how you explored everything

[ashorii]

it's all about meeting each other. That sums it all up. I'm Iranian and look forward to one day sharing our culture with you.

[atlara]

My friend, I will tell you that I felt a little apprehensive and anxious the times you said you were from Israel, in any location, whether full of people or more isolated. I felt that you put yourself at risk, radicals are found everywhere, unfortunately.
But thank you for the video, you managed to bring a lot of emotion and made me want to visit Egypt!
Hugs, Alexandre, São Paulo, Brazil.
