I applied for an e-visa it got rejected. I also applied for my friend but this time I downloaded his application form, his visa got approved the next day itself even got a confirmation e-mail. I tried the same thing for myself, I applied and downloaded the application form. Next day got email that my visa is approved. Earlier my visa was rejected with the reason last name not matching whereas I filled everything correct. I raised my concern in their website, followed up and applied again. I suspect that if you download the application form you have a proof that you have not done any mistake and I think this saved me. Sharing my experience. But better get VOA. Lesson learnt!

These tipping recommendations are too high… way too high. They want usd because they get more money when they get US dollars. It’s that simple. As someone who has lived in the Arab World for almost 25 years… Pay them in their local currency. Do not pay in dollars. You will end up spending more money if you do.

Not worth it. Its better to watch mummy 1 , 2 ( Brandon Phraser ) again.

Full is Sudanese too.

Hi, so for a foreigner the price from Cairo to Luxor will be 90 USD ??

Hi Gus! Love your blog and videos. I have a question on visas I can’t find a definitive answer to, I’m a Canadian landing in Cairo, spending 1 night there and taking a flight to Dubai for 2 days before flying back to Cairo for a 5 day stay and finally returning to Canada from Cairo. Can I get a multiple entry 60usd visa on arrival? Should I get two single entry 25$usd visas ( one each time I land in Egypt)? Or mist I get a multiple entry evisa prior to leaving Canada? Thank you so much !!

Thank you for including Canada in your video and your explanations are very clear and helpful

On my next trip in December, I have 2 options: to visit the Grand Egyptian Museum or to visit Saqqara and Memphis. Which one would you choose from those two visits, the museum or Saqqara + Memphis?

Yum

Great video but as i have great fun pointingbout to the locals as i live here but Koshary isnt Egyptian it was brought over from India during the Napoleonic wars 1798-1802 by British Indian Sepoys, Google for actual history

I feel like a proud mom and the fact that you are liver you earned my full respect

Thank you so much Mr gus for this a wonderful video

GUS! I WILL CONTACT YOU WHEN i loose my 💯 pnds. Hay GUS what do you think of DR. NICHOLAS REEVES updated new book THE COMPLETE TUTANKAMUN his Theory of an earlier female burial deeper INSIDE TUTTS TOMB because of the right turn of the enterence passage-female burial- INSTEAD OF THE LEFT turn of a MALE enterence passage for a king? ALSO KV 63 literally facing across meters away facing TUTTS TOMB? The golden face of a female coffen that looks LIKE AN AMARNA Princess/queen? KV 63 being a burial cache of 18th dynasty period. FACINATING!

You are a very good person It provides the best content and the closest description of my country, Egypt New follower I wish you good luck and continued success❤

They ask you the passport when you buy the ticket

Oh my, how things have changed in Egypt. I visited there in 1980, and the trains were ANCIENT back then. "Man fears Time, but Time fears the Egyptian trains" is what I said at the time. I am plotting my return, especially I want to see Alexandria this time too.

Do you know if I can purchase a ticket from Cairo to the Luxor at the airport for a domestic flight and back without booking online? Reason being is I will be in Cairo but not sure exactly when we will go to Luxor but then we leave out of Cairo again. No one can seem to answer this question in their Egypt guide videos. Thanks man.

100$ ??? Brooo you got scammed, cost me 20€

Just subscribed. May I ask, I'm indonesian I need visa to egypt, but I will be traveling to turkey first then fly to egypt, so the option "traveling from" country should I write Indonesia, or Turkey? Thankyou

Very informative video, thank you! Do you know btw how much does the regular ticket for foreigners cost (no first class, no vip) from Cairo to Alexandria both ways?

Very well made. Buildup is good. Will visit once this opens

Do people use digital platforms for payment like paypal, cashapp, or venmo?

Awesome! I’m currently a 20 minute walk away from my Airbnb. Guess I’m having dinner here tonight.

Thank you so much for your recomendation of weather

I lived in Egypt for a long time but now I want to make a trip with you Gus

Hi Gus, excellent video. So much so, my wife has just ordered a copy of the book for my Christmas present. Please tell Mark.

Planning to visit with my son in 2025 🤩

I’m from the uk and arrive in Cairo next week. Do I just pay for the visa at the airport?

How long you will wait to get your visa at Airport?

Alternative comfortable budget option: take Gobus Gobus EliteBusiness (1+2seats arrangement buses). Buy two seats!!! (next to each other of course). Looking now: Lux-cairo in is EGP600: so two seats EGP1200=USD24 very good deal for 10hr journey. I did this on Cairo-Hurghada:7hrs. Price can't be beaten on that level of comfort. No probs sleeping, lot of space.

I took Cairo-Aswan with my gf 8PM-8AM. I love travelling on sleeper trains- the rhythm of the railway track makes me sleep like a baby. Having the compartment for two of us, bottle of wine, watching a movie.... a romantic experience with that sweet sweet sleep I get only on a train. Plus excess expense reduced somewhat by us saving one night accomodation. The carriage was not the newest, but that was not a factor for us. I agree that flight would be cheaper, but this was great experience. Will repeat when we are in Egypt next April. And yap, bring own food and bottle of wine;)

My friend is from Egypt and she told me Basbousa and Kunafeh are more popular there

Valuable info. Thank you so much

Can you share your contact?

Thank you for the comprehensive video, can you recall by any chance if a paper boarding pass is mandatory or is a mobile one just fine

Hi gus, im traveling to egypt on monday, still havent find a guide😊

Nice video man! A question, when you follow the end of Al Haram street is there a ticket office?

I miss the kibda bro 🤤

Hi Gus, it seems, in GEM, only mobile photography is permitted. On the same note, can you tell me in which all Egyptian attractions is it prohibited to use my camera? And where all do I need to pay extra? Thanks!

What tour guide or private guide companies do you recommend? Thanks in advance

I am looking forward to visit the GEM.
