Well trust me I will never ride another camel after that one!

@@WhereisMalikah 🤩💫🌺💥

My sister is planning to go there alone after meeting a man in Tunisia she dont know him well he wants to meet her. There

i agree with everything but... i mean, i could be wrong but i dont think camels particularly dislike strong heat... you know since they're desert animals?

​@@kimmaddison8686🚩🚩🚩🚩

Thanks!

Happy to help!!

omg so sorry! the Eiffel Tower is beautiful, but I wouldn't go at night by myself!

@@WhereisMalikah I wasn't even by myself! I was with a girlfriend and it was just awful for both of us. Big mistake.

@@kaynichelle7982 so sorry!

Just do your research before you go, don't go anywhere blind

I would recommend a guide every time you leave your hotel!

Thank u!

glad it helped!

I'm sure you are lovely! Have a blast and hopefully you will enjoy the tour and stay safe and comfortable

Please don’t she is not honest he information is nothing but hate

Glad it helped! Definitely plan carefully and avoid going out alone. It will still be annoying but safer!

I was there for a two weeks last month as a solo female traveler. Never felt insecure or been harrassed. Don't believe everything you hear.

Thank u for your kind reply! And I hope you have the best time on your trip 💗

Checkout my second Egyptian scammers video

But don’t worry no one will grap your wallet or bag and run as it happen in Europe like Paris and no one will shoot you in mass shooting like the USA .. you will only find some scammers in the most touristic areas as all the world .. and about dressing seriously you will be surprised how much you can free dressed in Egypt cause Egypt has so many tourists and they are used to that you can take a look in on any Egyptian tv show and you will discover she is over reacting about dressing and the eye contact and so on .. come and feel free just search any place before you go to know how to deal with it and enjoy your adventure

Glad it helped! Do you have a trip planned?

@@WhereisMalikah in the process of planning now! Trying to figure out which cities to visit , thinking about doing a 10 day trip !

@@belizencrystal nice! You can do Jordan and Egypt they are close and only need like 5 days each. I'm posting more on my Jordan trip on IG/TikTok now and here next week!

@@WhereisMalikah oh perfect! I’ll definitely subscribe and follow your journey 🥰

@@belizencrystal thaaaank u ❤️

Maxi dresses and long or to your elbow length sleeves, and nothing tight or bodycon is fine

Just keep shoulders and legs pretty covered

Thanks for your feedback! You sound like you would be an amazing tour guide!

@@WhereisMalikah Many thanks , so kind of you. I wish you all the best

InshaALLAH

I am about to visit cairo next week n I have watched 100 of videos n all are saying same things n now I am feeling not to visit n I am nervous 😢 if this is what reality ppl of Egypt should change their behavior with visitors bcz such informations giving me negative signs to visit it 😥

@@humeramanjra2902 hope u enjoy your trip! Just be aware of your surroundings and make sure you have a guide if you didn't book one already

I hate to see people change their mind about dream trips based just on social media! If it's important to you don't miss it, but maybe don't go alone and just plan carefully 💖

Oh I’m still going just not alone I’m taking your safety

@@michellefriar26 that's the spirit!

I am an Egyptian and my wife is British . If you asked my her about the nicest and safest country in the world she would say Egypt . Is that report about Egypt ?

Do not believe her it’s very safe

I find all my tour guides on trip advisor or Viator! Just check the reviews and look for people that have a lot of reviews and all high ratings

Thank you 😊

Do not trust her , Egypt is safe and its like any country there are bad and there are good people

You will be fine just be careful hire a guide and don't go out alone esp at night

You will be fine just be careful hire a guide and don't go out alone esp at night

So is it safe if I go alone? I really have no one to travel with me and I'm going to visit and surprise my friend!! Is Alex airport safe since I don't wanna go Cairo?!

@@Luci66431 it’s very safe for solo travel but also you need to do your own research before you come to know exactly where you can go and when and sure if you can hire a guide for even one day to take you to the most crowded tourists places as the pyramids without having some scammers headache it will be great for you .. and if you plan to visit Aswan and luxor or alexandria they are also waaay safer and comfortable for solo travelers than Cairo

I would fly, but I'm not generally a road trip person!

Safer if you fly it and fastest , you can also take the train but again flying is the easiest.

I usually just use the atm at the airport or some big hotels have them! Everyone wants tips for everything and there really isn't a rationale behind how much to give. But if u give too small amount u can tell from their reaction 🙂

Will they rob you? I am not a bottomless cash machine and will be traveling with my daughter... The trip is already costing me a small fortune and this is just horrifying to think of shelling out hundreds of dollars a day in tips!!!!!!!!@@WhereisMalikah

Is it non refundable? I would think it's safer to at least go w a travel group. If u can't change just stick to guided group tours for every activity and don't go out at night or anywhere with lots of crowds

I def got scammed on the e visa 🤣🤣🤣

It wasn't horrible - could def have been way worse when I hear other girls stories!

Do not trust her , Egypt is safe and its like any country there are bad and there are good people

Are they meeting you to transfer to the hotel?

@@WhereisMalikahThey will meet me at the airport and will arrange the hotel transfer as well. In the event there is a delay in their arrival to meet me, that is my concern.

Likely! But just be careful when you leave and don't go out without a guide!

You have to be careful with the water, If you drink it you will return to Egypt is how the saying goes ;) . If you are going to Cairo expecting a European feel then you will be disappointed. People who are well cultured and curious about other cultures usually get on well in Egypt and will tell you Egyptians are very kind and hospitable. however, if you are the narrow minded type, Islamophobic, or a feminist it would not be for you. If one imposes western norms such as I.e dressing inappropriately then you will be sending the wrong message to the conservative majority there. Having said that many tourists don't bother going to the nicer parts of Cairo where you will find a different social class all together. I hope you enjoy. There are parts of Egypt such as the beautiful Sharm el Sheikh red sea resorts which has a great night life, expat community and young tourist from different parts of Europe. Everyone drinks and parties there every day yet it is very chilled in comparison to Cairo or even Alex. You can wear pretty much what you want and walk around in a bikini. No one will bother you or try to scam you. Advice from a well traveled Egyptian.

I use Viator for everything, you can check some out here! *affiliate link* www.viator.com/Egypt/d722-ttd?pid=P00085687&mcid=42383&medium=link

if you decide to book anything via that link and actually attend, I'll get a small commission!

I'm glad u can relate! I hate being negative online but it really was exhausting!

🤣 I just never want to start too low and offend someone

@@WhereisMalikah We Indians know. I'm about to visit Egypt so I'm interested to see whether I get scammed or not, or if I can avoid the touts.

At the time just covid vaccine!

always protect your health with the hepatitis B series of shots, but definitely do a hepatitis A series. they are not mandatory as far as i know but the medical field would suggest those 2 shots. and always make sure your tetanus shot stays current. bring a new unopened box of IMMODIUM A.D. because egypts water is not that good and it will cause you diarrhea. their local pharmacy can offer an equivalent to most medicines. drink bottled water only. we stored some in a freezer and carried them with us in the high heat. they were so cold when drinking. TUMS may be another thing to bring.

I didn't get anything special but at the time covid vaccines were required!

@@WhereisMalikah thanks

Your country has a lot of beauty despite the drawbacks!

I want to visit Egypt soooo bad and I was actually planning to travel in 2 months, but what she said made me so scared tbh!! I wanna go alone for only one week to visit my friend and surprise her and tbh I really don't wanna ruin the surprise and ask her for help!! Is Alex airport safe?! I dont wanna go to Cairo!!

@@Luci66431 Hi Lucy, you don't need to worry too much about what is mentioned in the video, it's just useful to know and be cautious but don't make that prevent you from coming to Egypt and have wonderful experience with your friend, and as she said in the video it's highly recommended to have some locals with you , and you'll have that , so don't worry! Having said that , I should mention that what is mentioned here in the video you'll find mostly in Cairo's Slums and in these places it's highly recommended to go with some locals. And you wouldn't find most of these places in touristic cities like hurghada , sharm el sheikh, Dahab ..etc When it comes to Alexandria airport, it's safe but One advice I can give you, when you're in Egypt try not to use normal taxi at all, and use Uber instead. I wish you wonderful experience and time here!

@@omarfateh1807 I really appreciate your reply and useful information! If you don't mind me asking few questions, you're kinda the 2nd Egyptian I have ever seen in my life that can actually speaks English, I know a little Egyptian arabic and I love the accent it's very sweet. So, am I allowed to have my safety gadgets with me, things like pepper spray and taser?! -I was wondering to rent a car, do you recommend that?! If yes, best place to rent a car in Alex? (I know driving in Egypt is crazy, I have had same experience in my country) -Can I get visa in Alex or I have to go to Cairo? -Who are the locals? How can I find them?! I just wanted to buy plane ticket and travel, I'm not planning to go by tour or else! Sorry for all these, and thank you for your time I really appreciate your kindness ❤️

@Luci that's such a cute idea! I have heard Alexandria is safer than Cairo, but I still wouldn't necessarily go alone. But if you must def book an airport pick up w driver meet and greet inside so you're not looking for a taxi or end up getting in a dangerous situation. Also do you have your friends address/know she will be home when you land?

Not sure, I think there was some regulation about it but we weren't importing any. It was not allowed other places I've been and u had to toss it at customs

Yes I think it's important for tourists to know that!

enjoy! just be careful & hire a guide

Cairo? I stayed there w my friends who live there and it's good for seeing the Pyramids and Coptic Cairo but only do like 2 days

yes. when in egypt, be sure to stay in busy highly populated cities. in the outer lying areas its risky because the egyptians communities do whatever they want to anyone, especially to foreigners and they can act very uncivil. a female alone in egypt is a huge target to all the men there. i lived there for many months and lived within different communities. cairo was the better of them, a very busy place till late at night. its a little more expensive than your small cities but loads of shops everywhere for food and durable goods.

@@xxbigkisses wow thank you so much.. can we be friends 🙏

I can't say I'll never go back bc I would have liked to see Luxor but Cairo never again!

I also wouldn't go alone to Morocco, and I have been twice 🤷🏽‍♀️

Because it is disrespectful and makes us feel unsafe

@@WhereisMalikah Then don’t dress in order to call attention to your body. It is not my job to make you feel safe. If you put YOUR self in a position to feel unsafe, that is your decision. I, as a man, know better than to enter a bar that appears to house undesirables, so I avoid it.

@davidlawson4281 it's not your job to make a stranger feel safe, but it's also not your right to make them feel uncomfortable. You really can just ignore someone, no matter what they are wearing

@@WhereisMalikah Fact is, if he was 6 ft 3in, and in a Ferrari, you would not necessarily feel safe, but would be willing to risk it.

@davidlawson4281 why is it so hard for you to understand that women just want to be able to have a walk in peace?

🤣

It still can be an incredible travel experience, just one u need to plan for!

Exactly, the saddest thing is, a lot of people have high expectations from a country that main enemies are poverty, lack of education and corruption. They go unprepared and without researching what is legal and what isn’t, what is appropriate and what isn’t , what to be expected when you’re there and then you see a lot of DO NOT VISIT EGYPT as videos titles and headers. Eg. The photography and video shooting without permission or in public places. They don’t get that this poor country up until 2016 , terrorists would go shoot places that are super crowded and few days later they get a report that the ppl spotted a black garbage bag that turns out to be explosives. It’s not technically prohibited but it can be worrisome to police officers and unfortunately sometimes others try to get a bribe to let you off which again corruption and poverty are the reason for it. Also the fact that a lot of ppl are saying that you have to haggle. The thing is they set it high for 2 reasons. First thing is that they KNOW that someone will negotiate to the point they may not make profit from it, and the other reason it, when a local buys the items they won’t afford to pay lets say a 100egp for a scarf when for the tourist is like 3.2eur. So they would usually sell it for the local for 60 and for the tourist for 100 to make up for the local prices . Because unfortunately most ppl are paid like 1500 egp to 2000 egp a month which is around 50-70 eur which is not enough to last them half of the month. So usually when I’m there I always like try to tip workers with generous tips and don’t haggle because even without haggling it’s still like 3times cheaper than if I would buy it from home or somewhere in Europe. I'm not saying not to haggle or negotiate, but if you feel like the item is already way cheaper than what you would pay for it anywhere else then try not to lower it too much. and I'm not saying give in to beggars because they are actually scammers. real poor ppl would try to sell you something, anything but they won't accept free money. scammers would tho. Also I'm totally with agreeing on certain prices before hand and negotiations with those ppl that offer camel and horses rides and other things of these sort. because they can be scammers .

​@@rominagad2502 Thank you for taking time to provide information re Egypt. My spouse & I will be going late Sept to early Oct 2023.

@@yasminanger9622 you’re very welcome! Hopefully you’ll have a great time xx

@@rominagad2502 We have visited Erbil, Duhok, outside Mosul in Kurdistan w Christian ministry group. We both loved the experience there. We are prepared for the differences in culture and living so hopefully our readings will help us enjoy our time in Egypt. I have no doubt. Bless you!

What does "wabos" mean?

@@user-guigui01 wabos are winnables Egyptians or wannabes in goral

Yes I was covered, but hijabs are not required. And I wouldn't say I had a horrible experience, if you watch my Cairo vlog you can see that. Plus I was mostly w local friends that live there, , so prob a better experience than most tourists. But I'm pretty def not going back to Cairo!

Hi are you back from your trip yet ? If so how much as it ?

@@WhereisMalikah hi , do u have any tour guides u would recommend? Watching your video is kind of intense .lol sounds like a unpleasant trip. I see that you recommend only a few days in Cairo .how many days do you recommend in the other areas?

@@Ash-so7uh it really depends on how interested you are in Egyptian history. You could go to other cities and see all the temples and go to beach areas for resorts. Or just do Cairo and leave

Just wear half sleeve top that is a bit loose, no cleavage and jeans, pants or long skirts that are preferably not to tight on you and you should be just fine. I go there every year nothing major yeah some cat calling here and there but that is about it.

🤣

You are crazy. It's the most amazing country.....things you can't see anywhere else...and the people are amazingly friendly!!

maaaaaa 🐑

You are not even welcome

People have different opinions just bc you don't like it doesn't mean it's a lie

You most definitely can not dress any ways you want, especially as a woman. It is disrespectful to the locals, and they will treat you based off of how you're dressed. As a woman if you dressed anyway you wanted the sexual harassment would be even worse then it is when you're covered up. It's also advised to get a guide as touks will harass and follow non stop around tourist areas.

only in sahel, matrouh, and red sea cites and not all, the ones that are full of tourists. definitely not in cairo, alex, countrysides and the sa3id cities.. and yes getting a tour guide can help them not to get scammed from the ppl that would scam them with horse and camel rides and also souvenirs and will help them get less harassment from the ppl that try to either forcefully sell you things or beg for money.
