[@sergio4914]

The secret to avoid tourist hustlers is completely ignoring the touts and keeping walk like if they didn’t even exist.

[@metevice]

Yes actually that’s the best strategy

[@trchambers617]

Act like your are in New York Times Square. No eye contact

[@ahele7448]

As an Egyptian feeling disgusted by the tourism situation in my country. After the spread of the scam videos, they started to feel afraid of any camera. Hopefully our government will feel a little shy and act

[@metevice]

They definitely have to do something against it. I mean Egypt is a wonderful country though!

[@zxcvbzxcvb6328]

Well, on the other hand, that kind of concern from the Egyptian product peddlers may actually stop most of them from abusing the tourist. Just point your camera to the over-aggressive peddlers and then they will leave you alone.

[@padilijamesmikomangwa519]

Also tell your touts and fake tour guides to learn English, in our country a small boy speaks three languages minimum in touristic attractions, Zanzibar, Arusha, Kilimanjaro - Egypt sometimes can be a pathetic country

[@ahmedsalem3615]

Unfortunately, fraud, harassment and embarrassment of tourists have reached their peak in Egypt because of the rotten regime. Tourists do not find comfort when wandering among the pyramids, especially. This harms the country to a great extent, creates a bad idea about the authentic people of Egypt, and ultimately leads to tourists refraining from coming to this country.

[@milab5775]

Thank God, my country honors the guest without defrauding him. I am from Iraq

[@Segmenta2.0]

I am gonna be honest this is all your fault. You are giving them a major chance to carry on by communicating this much. I was there last week, i studied what to do this scammers and trust me they couldnt complete their second sentence or bothered me at all.

[@metevice]

Yes bro it’s the best to just ignore them. The video was also for educational purposes tho

[@garystringer2582]

If he had ignored them, he wouldn't have been as able to educate the viewers on these scams to the same extent. Take this comment as a gift. Not a Giza gift but a genuinely free one.

[@razzaa01]

Why are you talking to these scammers, you drove me crazy

[@metevice]

For educational purposes bro

[@e.ssouliotis-ek8gs]

Cheaters and liars everywhere . No honor , no pride

[@metevice]

Yes watch out bro

[@anbaha5793]

They don't force anyone they just want to feed their children poor people who want money .. eygptions are the best people in this world .. they are friendly and nice . These people in the pyramids are poor people who want to make a living .

[@anbaha5793]

How much will you pay to enter burj Khalifa in dubai . Or burj alarab to enter burj Al Arab you have to pay 200 dhs . And you won't complain you are the person who has no honor

[@anbaha5793]

20 dollars for a camel ride is nothing .

[@e.ssouliotis-ek8gs]

I have been in many places on earth with poor people . I never saw in my life such behaviour, such cheating,such unpolite behaviour. This people are dangerous. By the way i never visited Dubai.

[@nesta4218]

Dont get me wrong, these sellers and "guides" are annoying af but 200 is like 4 euro. Is it really worth haggling and arguing for an hour over 4 euro?? Its still a 10th of the price of what you would pay for something similar like a horse carriage ride in European cities. And trying to get it for 50 Egyptian pounds?? Come on man, thats less than a euro! If they are getting people trying to haggle them with such insulting offers, no wonder they are trying to scam tourists..

[@metevice]

Yeah actually you are tights

[@dado380]

Agree,I am from Croatia and we have almost double of tourist compare to Egypt but everything is expensive,with even my salary I could live like the King in Egypt.

[@claymore9032]

I can see the view can agree but at same time no, most are just scammers not driven to. This is like a level above just begging

[@RoamingAroundUSA]

Most of them despise and hate foreigners. They smile and act friendly to you BUT if it was legal for them to take a gun or knife out and rob you some of them WOULD do it. It's easier to rob some foreigner you despise or hate. Is the nature of the beast. Humans, that is.

[@zxcvbzxcvb6328]

What would those product peddlers/pushers do if you simply ignore them by not looking at them when they're talking to you don't talk to them and you keep walking away from them? They probably won't get mad at you because they want to keep you as a potential future customer of theirs as long as you are in that area.

[@metevice]

😁🙏🏽

[@userone60]

Honestly, it might be better to just tell them no rather than later. I've seen some camel people follow and stalk tourists around when they say later. They get very possessive

[@metevice]

Yes probably that would be better 🤝🏾

[@forceuser151]

just tell him NO and just keep walking...

[@MartinezC.]

Be straight forward, NEVER say “later” or “maybe”

These scammers are no different from scammers from other poor countries, but if you're a seasoned Traveler you know how to ignore them.

If you dont want to get their services, dont prolong the conversation and just go. dont linger anymore because if you do that they will certainly push and annoy you more. just say thanks and dont look back just walk away.

[@mastertile2278]

To be honest, I'd have no problem paying them 300 to 500 pounds if I knew that some of it would go to taking care of the animals. It just seems sooo cheap to me! These people would have a feild day with me, but with it probably being my only time I visit, I'd be having a feild day too! Trinkets galore!!! 😂❤

The second pyramid looks taller only because it's built on higher ground. In fact it's shorter.

[@metevice]

Ahhh thanks for the explanation bro

[@garystringer2582]

I've watched multiple videos like this around the pyramids now, and it seems like all the scammers are trained at the same school of trading. 😅They all seem to like you to "promise" to come back for the "panorama". They use a lot of the same tricks and language over and over again. It all seems like a pretty organised racket. Respect to Banana, Bob Marley, Michael Jordan and Moses.

❤❤The pyramids are in the middle of the desert and their terrain is difficult and the heat is high with eating and drinking for camels and horses. You want them for $2. Don’t be stingy. You are coming to have fun and spend money.

[@metevice]

I am not stingy :) My Egyptian friends told me that I should not spend more than $2 for a ride so I took that advice a little bit too seriously maybe haha

[@piccioni1022]

Just walk and don't respond

[@nothingmatters7276]

I'm just wondering how people like "Mete Vice" the maker of this video are super cheap. People pay thousands of dollars for airplane tickets and for hotels, but can't pay $7 to ride a camel or horse to tour around the pyramids instead of damaging their shoes. It looks like Germans think one dollar can buy a lot in Egypt, but the fact it doesnt buy anything there. Egypt is a very expensive country to visit, and nothing there is cheap unless it's a copy. However, those beggars shouldn't be around any tourism areas harrasing tourists like that. They give a very bad reputation to the country. It's the officials responsibility to protect tourists from them if they need tourists to visit Egypt. I think the lack of responsibility from the Egyptians government is because they don't make any significant amount of money from tourism. All tourists' money goes to private sectors like hotels, restaurants, transportations, and antique shops.

[@metevice]

It’s not that we are cheap… we just don’t want to be scammed…

[@horacecomegna335]

The camel rides are also a scam! 😂😂😂

[@Wes-k6o]

Just because someone pays to visit your country it doesn’t mean their rich and are not allowed to be super cheap, who are you to tell someone what they do with their hard earned money? What if that person actually saved for 10 years and their first trip was to that country, traveling isn’t cheap and every penny saved is needed at times especially if not coming from a place of privilege.

[@SL33P-WALK3R]

You sound like a cheap mad scammer yourself.

[@IIIAmTheObserver]

I don't understand why you're saying that the Egyptian government makes no money from tourists. Just a quick Google search revealed that the entry fee to the pyramids is 240 EGP, and over 14 million people visit the pyramids every year. That means they make over 3,360,000,000 EGP ($70m USD) every year on the entry fee alone. They could easily crack down on these scammers, make the whole experience more enjoyable for tourists, and raise the entry fee to 1000 EGP. It is literally singlehandedly the most intriguing and interesting structure ever built on the entire planet. People will pay it, especially if the whole experience wasn't ruined by these scammers. It would actually attract even more than the current 14 million tourists every year. The Egyptian government could potentially make 20 billion EGP ($417m USD) per year just off the entrance fee alone.

[@ShugaShane618]
