Did you know that the Egyptian parliament put sanctions against those who pushy or harass or scams tourists four years ago? The penalties were as follows. A charge 10,000 Egyptian pounds. 2- 6 months in prison. But there is no application because of the bribery that police officers get from scammers

Just came back from two and a half weeks in Egypt. This is the norm in Luxor and near the sites in Aswan. Outside of Giza, you can at least walk around in Cairo without constant harassment. I was polite at first but they really don’t stop and the politeness of foreigners only encourages more bad behavior. Dishonest cabbies are common everywhere but never before have I had a tout grab me to the point where I had to literally push him down to get him off of me. I started acting very aggressively towards them when they wouldn’t take no for an answer and that usually worked. I understand that Egypt is dealing with massive unemployment and overpopulation but the people involved with tourism don’t leave a good impression that encourages repeat visitors or even the present tourists to spend money. Had multiple vendors try and steal change after purchases (this even happens at the archaeological site ticket windows) or try to charge me ridiculously inflated prices for grocery items (80 Egyptian pounds for water, etc.) The authorities do nothing about the scams and even allow begging inside the airports by baggage handlers and security personnel.

Best thing you can do from my experience after travelling to many countries like this: Do not say anything. Just make a rejecting movement with your hand and walk. By this, they will not be able to become familiar with you, cannot guess which language you speak and which country you come from, and cannot start any smalltalk which is always the starting point for involving you into something where you pay at the end.

[@mohamed.maher.]

Hi Jim. I'm so sorry for the terrible experience you have had. I have to say though that this is quite the norm in Egypt, unfortunately. As a solo tourist, life would be much easier if you explore the country with a local guide who can jump in situations like this and deal with scammers. It really is difficult for us Egyptians to negotiate prices in touristic sites, so I can tell how extremely challenging it is for a tourist like yourself. I hope this does not put you off your vacation in Egypt and I wish you a very pleasant stay :)

Thanks Mohamed!This problem is everywhere for tourist for your food,transport,accommodations,activities and is exhausting and super annoying every time try to overcharge and scam you and it is not my opinion I have met many other travellers and everybody have the same problem.Egypt is very beautiful country and have very nice weather during the winter so if change the way how behave to tourist they will come for holidays much more people.

[@petermcg5690]

I initially enjoyed this video because I had the unfortunate experience of having to deal with scammers almost every step that I took in Luxor and in Hurghada and Giza. BUT! You decided to give him money and THEN to take the ride offered. In doing that you not only encouraged him but reinforced the fact that his persistence in hassling tourists eventually pays off and he is then so encouraged to continue to do the same with every tourist he sees. If every tourist just ignored these scammers, not saying a single word and continued to walk on, then the encouragement for them to continue hassling tourists becomes less and less. I was so pleased to see you, in the beginning of the video, brush him off and then so disheartened when his hassling worked and you decided to give him money - the worst possible thing to do. You merely encouraged him and fell for his persistence and his scamming lies - and this IS a dirty scam that is carried out with relentless persistence on tourists in all of the tourist hotspots throughout Egypt. Within the space of approximately 20 minutes in Luxor, while walking to the evening market, I was propositioned (and I DO mean sexually propositioned) by three teenage boys! This absolutely shocked me (in a predominantly Islamic country - it was, unfortunately, something that I came to expect throughout south-east Asia, but I was absolutely floored at it occurring in Egypt) to the point that I just returned to my hotel and sat chatting to the barman while I had a few beers. Ali, the barman, initially chuckled when I related this story to him but he became suitably serious upon seeing my stern face and he said, "This is bad, very bad." This was in 2017 - pre Covid, so Covid is not the problem, but Ali went on to explain that because tourism was just beginning to recover in Egypt, the "young men" (they were boys - as young as 14, perhaps as old as 18) were not earning as they were used to doing and because they were not from Luxor had to find a way of earning money to survive. Now, this told me that Ali was well aware that this was going on and, shockingly to me, simply explained it away in an almost "needs must" way. In Hurghada, while I was walking to a bar I frequented in the Port area, a taxi driver kerb crawled me calling and waving at me through the open driver's window. He was even more persistent than the caleche driver in this video and even followed me the wrong way down a one way street. I eventually walked over to him, closed my fist and shaped to throw a right hook through the open car window without saying a single word to him. He got the message then and sped off yelling expletives in Arabic through the open window. Some older Egyptian men were sat outside a coffee shop and they all laughed heartily and beckoned me over to join them where I enjoyed a coffee and a chat with them for a short time. During my time with them they tried to explain that "He no Egyptian man" and "He no from here" but they continued to chat and laugh and mimic me forming a fist and shaping to throw a punch - but it did turn out to be a pleasant change from the scammers and touts that are to be found everywhere. True Egyptian hospitality and they expected nothing and asked for nothing other than mutual company and (in broken English) chat, which was refreshing. Egypt is a fantastic country and I will be returning for a few weeks next month. Please do not let these people put you off visiting or returning to Egypt: you just need to be ready for them and be prepared to be rude, even although this may go against your own natural instincts. Ignore, say not a single word and walk on making a dismissive swipe of the hand - they will get the message and look for another patsy tourist because they will figure very quickly that they will get nothing from you. Whatever you do, DO NOT reply and engage with them - that is the scammer's "hook" and only you can bite at the bait. As a final thought, my aggressive reaction worked for me, but it is not something that I would recommend that people do - unfortunately, I had just had enough of this low-life scummy behaviour and lost my calm demeanour. Anyone who knows me will be well aware that this reaction from me merely shows how bad the unwanted attention must have been. Enjoy Egypt - it is a wonderful country!

No problem, Jim. I've been to Greece (Agios Nikolaos) 4 times and have always had pleasant experiences with the local people there. It's very similar to here in Scotland where you are considered not as a visitor, rather more of a guest - no touts or scammers; the only thing here is organised begging from economic migrants, which irritates the hell out of us here in Glasgow! But, more and more, locals step in and intervene when tourists are seen to be giving to the organised beggars who are neither homeless nor poor.

You should not have paid him at all, that only contributes to the problem. By hassling you, not only do they hope that you'll pay for their service but they also know that there's a good chance that you might also pay so that they leave you alone.

Hi Jim I feel so sorry because you faced this issues in Egypt, which we cannot deny it as real problem, I suggest next time you can go out with one of Egyptian friends or something, I think what has happened was may be because the illiterate people’s percentage is so high here but you cannot refer it back to poor situations because in other countries poor people still do not do this, anyways good luck
