Don't visit Egypt until you watch this!

Egypt, Cairo: the pyramids are a disaster full of scammers, the city hotels are getting worse, and the beaches are inaccessible, but there might be a solution to bring tourists back to Egypt... bad tourist experiences in Egypt are so common, this country needs to fix it.

Very nice video, Michele. Wow! It's crazy to hear that the hotels in Cairo are advertising old pictures to deceive customers. I agree with you about the bathroom situation. Thank you for sharing your visit to Egypt. I enjoyed watching 👍👍👍

[@MichelePonte]

Thanks a lot Mike!

[@high16200]

Hi Michele, Eygpt has its charm and a lot of history behind it. Thanks for touring this amazing city with us and I enjoyed watching as always🙏🙏💙💙

[@MichelePonte]

Thank you Faisal!

[@bojankrstic7684]

Always tell the truth! No need to make it look better then it is

[@MichelePonte]

I appreciate you Bojan

[@zowievanleeuwen4882]

I get your point, indeed its treu that in Egypt you may encounter situations which you are not comfortable with, it might be because of cultairal differences, different hygenic standards and more. But i have to say that Egyptians are extremely kind, generous, that its very safe and very affordable, its more affordable then ever now since the currency devaluation. But tourists should definitely do their research before visiting Egypt, to know what they will get into. Of course i understand that my experience is different since i am living in Egypt and i do speak Arabic. But i would encourage eveyone to visit Egypt :)

[@MichelePonte]

I spent 3 months in Egypt, and this video is a suggestion of all things that can be fixed from a tourist point of view

Mister italiano i recommend you to visit Algeria nice country, good people, honest people,and delicious food ,and many things to explore. You will not be disappointed like Egypt.

[@MichelePonte]

That's one of my dreams, but your government makes it difficult to obtain the visa and flights are expensive, but I am considering it a lot

[@mistertigre.4611]

Many KZbinrs has achieved to get the visa to Algeria watch the vlogs from travel with Chris ​@@MichelePonte

[@MichelePonte]

I assure you, I looked into it many times :) If I find 1000 euro, I'll come at the end of September.

Offering three different price points allows the poor to survive, somehow. Poverty is the root of all evil. If Europeans, with their incredibly high salaries by local standards, paid the same prices as locals, locals would lose all ability to buy anything. No one will sell cheap when they can sell expensive. Furthermore, cultural institutions might be subsidized by the government, meaning they are funded by taxes from these people. Therefore, locals have the right to enjoy them at a lower cost, as they have already paid a portion of it through their taxes.

[@MichelePonte]

I proposed a solution: 1 day per month for free like we do in Rome. And most Europeans work the entire year to spend 2 weeks in Egypt, most people are far from being Rich

[@randydergantz]

Sig. Ponte - I for one appreciate your honesty, and factual statements on what you encountered in Egypt, or for that matter any other country you’ve visited in the past! As you stated, tour books, or online pictures can be very deceiving. Old and false. Knowing what to expect, and having first hand accurate information before any trip will help to ensure a fun and pleasant time. Hopefully without incidents. Regardless of the topic of conversation, honesty is always the best policy for all!

[@MichelePonte]

The Pyramids are a must see, but the conditions are terrible. It is a very unfortunate situation that could be fixed.

[@patp4403]

I visited in 2019, I loved it and had a good time!

[@chizzlemo3094]

A black friend of mine got such bad food poisoning in Egypt she went Green for a week and was convinced she was going to die. Kind of put me off trying!!

[@MichelePonte]

Damn...

[@tashatravels2095]

This was my experience as well, also the tipping culture there is fkn ridiculous. It’s sad what it has come too

[@MichelePonte]

The tip is confusing for me too, but a friend clarified to me that all we see on the bill is taxes, as strange as it looks

[@KenWiggerAnotherAncientGamer]

Great video Michele! I had wanted to visit Egypt years ago and went to Switzerland instead. I don't think Egypt is on my short list anymore. Thanks so much for sharing your experiences in Egypt!

[@MichelePonte]

Yes, Swiss is the opposite: clean and organized!

[@opolotiversity]

Bravo, Thanks for the Video

[@MichelePonte]

Thank you too!

Ancient Egypt is more advance then modern day Egypt pepelul. Mfs literally went backwards.

Unfortunately some of the magic from the past got lost

[@Alex_Gordon]

now at least I know where NOT to go. Egypt is missing out big time and it's their own fault. thanks for the heads up

[@MichelePonte]

They knew about these problems for years, and they did nothing to fix them.

[@rrandy_]

Another great video 🇨🇦

[@MichelePonte]

Glad you enjoyed it Randy!

Egipt is very nice when you live in Condo with shops, on locked up for locals in seaside districts .Egyptians want to rubber you , olmost everybody .I had impressions like thet . They are Arabs state and looks more like Pakistan not Italy anyway . DO NOT MAKE EYE CONTACT WITH LOCALS IF YOU DID YOU LOST .😅

Unfortunately in many countries is the trend: gated communities excluding everyone from outside

[@paulwilde1403]

Better than Russia

[@MichelePonte]

There is less freedom of speech here than there. Internet in Egypt is so controlled that everything goes soooo slow.

[@MegaTinge]

I'm wondering if you can argue this statement?

[@Brancoladage-zk3xr]

*INDIA = India in asia* *EGYPT = india and Bangladesh in North Africa* Enough said
