This man did more damage to the Egyptian economy than arab spring. Has anyone actually been there to experience it?

    I've been there, it was close to 20 years ago now and it was a shithole even back then, before the revolution. Aggressive peddlers trying to squeeze money from you, dirty and smelly, nothing at all to do or see outside of the ancient ruins (full of tourists and aggressive peddlers)

      Which is worse? Egypt or a crying baby on a long flight?

        kek this is the third or fourth thread I've seen this referenced. I look forward to this being SighSee's latest meme.

        Also I'm OP and I'm actually a gay black trans software engineer with a Chinese girlfriend. I also impregnated over 200 women in the Philippines.

    Seems SighSee gets filtered hard by Egypt.
    Yes, it can be annoying as frick, but it has lots to offer. Learning a little Arabic goes a long way there, too. Some gems:
    >Hiking Mt Sinai
    >Siwa
    >Nile Cruise
    >Falluca on Nile at sunset in Aswan
    >Cycling Valley of Kings
    >Diving in Dahab
    >Exploring pyramids around Cairo other than Giza
    >Soaking up the sheer madness of Cairo
    >The calmness of everything south of Marsa Alam, and Wadi El Gamal
    >Being out in the desert

    There's some serious A and S tier things to do in Egypt. When it's good, it's absolutely kino and leaves a massive impression.

          A2 is virtually useless though.

            A2 allows you to get by in a language, which is what most travelers need. I'd also add that it gives you the necessary toolkit to start independently when you're on the ground.

        To be honest ar*bic doesn't even sound that bad. What puts me off is the fact that it's associated with some of the worst subhumans on the planet (ar*bs)

          I'm in 2 minds about Arabs, tbh. I think we need to differentiate the ruling class and the cattle class.
          The rich, educated (like everywhere I guess) are chill, cool guys, and do based things.
          The uneducated are the biggest morons on the planet.
          Everybody speaks about Anglo imperialism and its effects (which is by and large bullshit), but for me, Arab Imperialism is faaaaarrrr worse. Anywhere Islam has touched is a fricking state.
          The world would be a far better place if Arabs stayed on their peninsula, stayed chill, built cool shit, and played nicely. Would allow Mediterranean civilizations to thrive again.

      Tl;dr: Egypt has great nature and ancient monuments but Egyptians are literal sandnogs. If you have to go there get a guide or book a tour so you avoid the hassle of having to interact with them.

      Good post. Did you do cycling in Luxor yourself? I'd like to cycle in Egypt but the roving packs of loose dogs put me off.

        Yup, have done it twice. Rented bikes while out there. First time, can't remember; second time, our accom knew a guy who knew a guy.

        We were on the Valley of Kings side of the Nile, but I think you can bring your bike on the ferry over no problem if you're on the main side of the river.

        The road from Luxor out to the desert can seem a little hectic at first, but it's really not bad. Once you get out of the town, it's ezpz.

        Need to leave bikes at security at entrance.

        Ok, getting board of post format, but after here you take the road round to VotK. Nice paved road which snakes between cliffs. Can stop off for kino photos. OSM told me there's random shit you can explore,but you need ot be careful as Egyptian military are very no fun allowed.

        First time I went, I took an amazing hike from the back of Valley of Kings up the rocks. But this also has been no fun allowed-ed in 2022.

          Thanks for the experience but it's not exactly what I was asking about. I've walked the entire route you are describing, and I distinctly remember there being multiple packs of dogs along that very track. One by the Colossi of Memnon, and several on the outskirts of town along the road that skirts the Tombs of the Nobles and branches off to the Valley of the Kings.

          I also hiked up from the outside of Valley of the Kings and ended up climbing down next to a tomb in Hatshepsut on the inside of the ticket area (I did have a ticket though).
