SWIMMING IN THE NILE | Egypt River Cruise Days 3 & 4

[@bethroesch2156]

Can I just say, as someone who has grown up swimming in rivers and creeks, the Nile is surprising clear water lol. I love being able to see something outside of a tourist spot. That shot of the river from the desert is amazing!!!! It's more beautiful there than I ever imagined

[@ElementaryExplorers]

I would have never guessed the Nile would be cold?!?! Crazy!!

[@bigtex1238]

Where the heck are the hippos ND crocodiles ?

Hey hey glad you survived being live bait for the crocs ha ha so interesting the sights you are seeing wow awesome stay safe see ya

[@JustCallMeAnnie]

The sound was incredible in this video! You could tell you worked really hard to perfect it!

[@KaraandNate]

Thanks Annie 💜💜💜

[@suziclark4244]

All of your river cruise adventures (Cambodia, Myanmar, Amazon, and now Egypt!) have me interested in doing the same thing. It seems like a great way to get off the beaten track and see things that you would normally never visit. Great video, as always! They put a smile on my face everytime.

[@sheelahewitt3453]

In April, I was in these same places and it was 116 as well. Thank God for water and electrolytes! Totally worth it!

[@pamthomas2911]

yay! another video from my favorite fellow Tennesseans. hi family....yes that's right I have adopted you as my baby siblings although I am old enough to be your mom. love it when you do cruises. I am a 20 year cruiser and I have always wanted to do a river cruise. definitely on my bucket list. I wish you well and safety. may God continue to keep you safe.

[@kathyandtonypuravida]

Love these guys, have watched almost all of their videos. They have inspired me to document my wife and my travels even though we are their parents age :)

[@jeshanth]

I'd love to watch those!

[@DrEsq]

Every time I think I’ve watched all of your videos I find more. Certainly NOT complaining.

[@Sabidahbi]

binge watching all of your Egypt vlogs instead of studying because I'm homesick

[@maladetts]

I've always pictured Nile to be: 1. hot 2. full of crocodiles and therefore, unfit for swimming. How is the reality in this video so different?!

[@a.kramer1615]

maladetts when we were in Egypt they told us that in the Nile there lives somekind of nilebug that gets in your bloodstream 😁 so they did advise us not to swim.

[@whoever7033]

Crocodiles have been blocked from the nile in Egypt since the High Dam was built in Aswan . And it is cold cuz sun can't effect but the upper layer of the water which is nothing more than a couple of feet . Also it depends on the location , the visual here won't be the same as a kilometer ahead .

[@maladetts]

@@whoever7033 What would stop reptiles from bypassing the dam and getting into the river all along the rest of its course in any given spot?

[@whoever7033]

@@maladetts Villagers / Workers & patrols at the Dam's station / them being not wanting to cross the uncovered busy land for no good reason / God's Mercy , Good to feel safe around your river :) .

[@maladetts]

@@whoever7033 And what about the rest of the land up high? It's completely free of reptiles? Their habitat doesn't cross a certain geographical line within Egypt? Why wouldn't they just be born up the river after the dam? That sounds odd.

[@karenharless2170]

You two was met for one another. I love watching you and where you travel I feel like I am there. Thanks for doing these videos

[@propitiationed]

Kara, I was concerned for you when you ran down the dune....You go Girl!

[@samrocks898]

Honestly of all the places you guys have went I am most jealous of Egypt and the trip down the nile, this is just sooooo cool!! Hopefully I’ll find myself there sometime in the future 😉

[@alsazlyahmed6699]

I invite you to visit Egypt again. I am from Luxor

[@eslameltayeb8624]

samanthaalynn27 lol everyone are welcome in Egypt xx

[@ToddMcKeever]

I truly enjoy how Kara and Nate interrupt their experiences with such “Incredible” enthusiasm. Keep it up!

[@emilycarpenter3326]

I love this Egypt series, incredibly interesting, not what I expected, such an experience, so amazing, wow wow wow!!!

[@lisasmith1014]

After binging all your vlogs to catch up,I love coming home from work and getting to watch a new one. Y'all are awesome!!

[@KaraandNate]

Glad you enjoy them😁

[@DelightfulTravellers]

The scene at 4:34 looks like something out of Star Wars! Egypt looks incredible. - Trevor

[@FamilyTravelVlog]

I’ve never seen anyone visit where they get the stones for the temples. Interesting to see that side of things

[@Christina-Bobina]

Kara your editing is on fleek! Loved watching this adventure guys 😊

[@TheNomadExperiment]

Really beautiful shots of the men playing dominoes in the cafe. Bravo!

[@Lisa-ij1is]

You guys make like the best vlogs. I never had the idea that a Nile river cruise could be so fun. Binge watching your vlogs makes my day. Keep up the good work. Lots of love from India

[@hannahwells2608]

Please do a video on what is in your suitcase! Your outfits look fab Kara!!

[@stephaniegruenberg7044]

The Wadi is what I would typically think of Egypt being like. It's been so interesting to see the different views of Egypt through you guys!

[@AnaisAVIP]

seriously, guys, this's so cool!! I almost feel jealous, this adventure was definitely one of the best its simple amazing

[@ritaserraa]

You guys really are rockin it with these videos!! Egypt has been a place I've wanted to visit since I was a little kid and watching Indiana Jones lol but as a kid, I was always scared to go but now I know as an adult I am so excited to see this beautiful, historical, wonderous country next year. Thank you for sharing your amazing adventures.. I might actually do the boat tour not sure yet...

[@wanderingrg]

If I ever go to egypt I have to do it like you guys! Its a perfect sequence looks so funn

[@hannahstewart4198]

OMG how do you guys stay so fit while traveling?

[@lexykapcia9994]

I know!!! I’m assuming it’s because they walk & hike so much on their adventures but it’s crazy!

[@ishau4697]

Wadi literally translates to valley in Arabic,Urdu and Hindi. Love your videos!!

[@arosete3512]

I always wonder how you carry your valuables. I only see you carrying your camera. Do you have your passport on you at all times or locked up in your suitcase? I always carry a small cross body bag when traveling internationally.

[@nicolealonzo3826]

Love the editing on this video! Starting at one point and moving to another. 👍🏽 You two are my fav!!

Kara and Nate ❤️❤️❤️

[@lindawoody8501]

So interesting. I commend you both. A relative of mine went to Egypt and did a similar tour just before that political upheaval of several years ago. For a long time, I do not think many tourists have returned. My relative said it was crowded. So, your visit without crowds says a lot. I hope all goes well for the Egyptians in terms of redeveloping the tourism there. Such a lovely trip up the Nile you had!

[@maddielloyd7595]

2 words to describe you guys - inspirational and incredible!

[@Dina-pc3qj]

I am an Egyptian and i really enjoy your vlog and i like your vibes ,the only thing that i was thinking about while watching that i wished that i was with you and correct a lot of funny misunderstanding

[@cherylmedeiros6287]

118 degrees and you complain about it being freezing cold. Lol! Like Kara said to reset your body temperature. Probably times you want to be just dragged up the river in the water. Not like a cruise ship with swimming pools. But then again you have to watch for crocs!

[@kat369-mine]

That's the way it is in the desert. Once it's past 105' any wind can fell like it's coming from a blast furnace. And the water will feel colder, even if it's not. But the Nile is moving so fast, and I think it's deep, adds up to cold.

[@MinaMina-tf7ig]

Good job Kara! Beautifully edited plus very nice music.

[@NomadShifu]

That looks really fun. Kara's enjoying the Nile River more than anyone else.

[@user-vk7oj2qj5i]

Lemon mint juice is my favorite thing ever! Drank it everyday when I was in the Middle East

I just finished watching all of your videos from day 1 at Tokyo up until now. It took me almost two months to catch up. You are doing an amazing job with those vlogs! Keep travelling and making more of these!

[@puttytat007]

Kara and Nate, so happy your having so much fun in Egypt. I lived there for two years and I loved every second of it. :) Even have my residency since my husband is Egyptian. :)

[@KaraandNate]

So cool! Yes we had a blast❤

[@heathershobe3694]

Wow!! So amazing! I’m just amazed at the history and all the carvings and how they lived all those centuries ago. The people of Egypt are beautiful and so kind. What a great cruise 🚢!! Kara, did you keep the empty coca-cola bottle? My brother kept coca-cola souvenirs when he was in the Marine Corps and it’s so cool all the different languages on all of them! Anywho, great video per usual:) Love that y’all are back on schedule 🤗 Stay you 😘

[@JustCallMeAnnie]

Really interesting how cold the water is in comparison to the air temps!

[@TimezoneJunkies]

That river cruise is so beautiful. One day when we want a break from hitchhiking our way around the world we'll definitely do a cruise on the Nile. We've still not been to Egypt but we've heard it's a nice country with very nice people. Thanks for sharing! 🙏

[@yuyiadventures9768]

[@shattique4785]

Hi guys! I am from Bangladesh and I am watching your Egypt videos for the first time. The more I am watching these videos, the more I am finding similarities between Egypt's and Bangladesh's lifestyle, except the Egypt's history and her deserts. Do you guys have any observation why is that so?

[@turmesur697]

OMG only few seconds into the video I realized Nate has a new T-Shirt!!! 😂

[@IAMDANREEVE]

Killing it with this egypt series.. thanks for the videos guys. You both are such inspirations

[@holyfox94]

These sailing boats are called “Dahabeya”. I did the same trip. It’s awesome if you’re interested in history but don’t make the same mistake like Kara and Nate and travel in May. Go in the winter months.

[@alexp9621]

Funny you should mention the breeze being hot when it's that kind of temperature, I experienced that in Turkey a few years ago. Been many times but only once in the height of the summer. Went out on our friends boat trip and the breeze felt like opening an oven door.

[@h5adventures81]

Maybe the Nile felt so cold because the temperature difference? I've spent a lot of my life in the desert, Iraq, Kuwait... and Arizona and once you're used to that type of heat, 90 degrees starts to feel cold. Either way, I really enjoyed this episode (as usual)!

[@alisadventures152]

H5Adventures have to agree with this! I've lived in Morocco the last 2 years and it's amazing how cool anything under 100 feels.

[@MandaShell]

I was thinking the same thing. Back in my days of swim team we had to stay in the water on cold days to keep warm, because the air was the enemy. I feel like the Nile probably is naturally cooler, but the air difference would definately exaggerate the feeling.

[@cindymills7]

Y'all's river cruises are my favorite. Vietnam #1 Y'all rock!

[@Peachessxo]

I’m a Florida girl so I don’t know how actual temps of 110+ feel, only with heat index because of humidity. I’m sure that cold water was refreshing!

[@tally1604]

The crocs can't live in cold water. They are poikilothermic, ie their internal temperature correlates directly with the ambient temperature. That's why they are found in warmer stagnant waters only

[@loridoolaghty3453]

Ahh, the food. Sorry to obsess about it but food from other countries has always been of interest to me.

[@mhollick63]

I'm glad you two are safe. I was advised by my travel nurse not to swim in the Nile specifically. You can catch all kinds of diseases like shistosomesis.

[@muhammadhesham2658]

Maybe, but not at that spot of the Nile at Aswan city the first Egyptian city on the Nile so it's still clean & safe .. I'm Egyptian & I went on a cruise like that before & I swam in the same place, I have seen the water there cleaner than any other place in Egypt

[@TammyTravelsTheWorld]

Great video, I just have a question for Kara: Were you uncomfortable being the only woman on the boat and also being in your bikini in a Muslim country? (You look amazing btw!) Thanks.

[@ifrahabdirahman2709]

Egypt is more likely open minded bikini, because their woman wear too. I use to live in Egypt 7 years ago.
