I hope Rick Steves will visit Egypt once the Grand Egyptian Museum is open to the public.
I’ve been watching and admiring Rick Steves for many years now, he’s the original and best of all travel bloggers.
There isn’t a ton of wholesome programming anymore, so even more appreciation for this.
Totally agree with you. Everything is so over saturated today. I deleted social media and then started watching Rick Steves and I feel SO refreshed.
Rick Steve the original and still the best youtuber.
the OG!!
LET US NOT FOR IAN WRIGHT OF LONELY PLANET!!
The voice of travel
I have been watching this guy for years and years. He does a really great job 👏
As a christian I know Eypt since I was a kid. We learned so much about Eypt in Sunday school. I hope to visit one day
Egypt is the most interesting foreign country I have visited; Luxor is a fascinating place; go if you can to both of these places.
Is Egypt safe?
I heard a lot of bad things on TH-cam, scammers and tired and hungry animals and harassment, is it really safe for visit ?
Yes, if you take a tour@@7178nana
@@7178nanaYes, if you take a tour; try Grand Circle Tours; perhaps ask Rick Steves for advice about tours; good luck.

Greatly well researched, informative and entertaining.
Haven't seen too many his travelogs over the years, but always appreciate his classy and courteous manner.
I love watching him
love egypt
Beautiful presentation, thanks from Egypt
My wife and I just returned yesterday ftom an AMAWaterwsys tour of Egypt and saw all of these sites and more, with the exception of Alexandria. Marawa was one of our 3 guides. It was exhausting and wonderful. We had one fabulous lunch at a gorgeous Marriott property across the street from the pyramids and a final lunch at the Royal palace in downtown Cairo. The three days in Cairo was based at the Ritz.
Egypt the Disney way .
❤ Egypt

I'm waiting for the Grand Egyptian Museum to fully open before I visit.
@@andyroo9381 it's already finished but they don't want to fully open it because they think the war nearby would affect the show so they're waiting for the war in gaza to end first
Great video. I visited Egypt 9 times in the 1990s. Flying from London to Cairo,Luxor, and Aswan and local flight to Abu Simbel. I thought that Hatshepsut was the only female pharaoh, but is referred to as the greatest woman pharaoh. Who were the others? Retired to Spain in 2001 for 21 years,now back in U.K. near Cambridge.Aged 89.
Yes my friend tell me. She. Upset.
So l say not. Peeples now. Different. So. For us now. About history.
I do not know must about this. So now .I. don't go. To cause. I do not know about islsle. An paĺàtie
Mer-Neith, Dyn. 1; Sobekneferu, Dyn. 12; Nefertiti (likely, if she is identical with Neferneferuaten); I think there may be a few more, but these are the ones I could think of 🙂
I was there a month ago
Love it ,went every where
Lovely video ❤
Masham Allah very beautiful and very interesting video thanks so much sir
love it
thank you
Awesome❤
Respect to you Rick
Always
Thank you Rick, Love the new shows 👍👍
Excellent.
IT'S ALWAYS interesting and entertaining to see Americans being concerned about their safety when travelling to the Middle East, Totally brainwashed by Us government usually advising against travelling to this part of the world for safety and yet suffering from amnesia on the subject of safety on the streets of the cities in the US
The US does not have Suicide Vest or Car Bombs or Terrorist shooting people with machine guns. We have a different type of crime.
I was hoping Steve would show people at the beautiful see shore families enjoying bathing at the beach, also the tramways in Alexandria, usual people’s life, beautiful hotels, and shopping stores selling good European goods… too much of pharaonic pillars , sands and pyramids. But I appreciate his efforts, I was born in Cairo and lived in Alexandria too. Much has changed…..😮 I have unforgettable beautiful memories.😊❤ oh how much I miss the beaches, was the best in the whole world . Thank you.
thank you for sharing
That was very nice!❤
Get well soon good friend and waiting for your new exposition…
Charming people.Antiquities that remind captivating civilization.Congratulations from great country India👏
india great tatti
Beautiful episode .... kept me lost in the video 😍
Come visit Egypt with Mystery land tours
YESTERDAY AND TODAY !
I am based in Egypt since 2016... this video is way too authentic, very nice, however you still did not discovered the very very modern bit of egypt especially Cairo, like sheikh zayed, new cairo city, zamalek island, madinty, Heliopolis, the malls like cairo festival city, downtown katameya mall, maadi, mohandessin, garden city, mall of egypt, mall of arabia, and ofc the new administrative city still under construction. The country is going crazy with lots of changes all over. Kinda exciting to see all these changes and improvements. I love your shows sir.
This is the first video of yours I've watched, really incoming it
Wow❤
Just got back there …it’s fascinating but hard and hectic travel.
Change has increased dramatically
Egypt yesterday and today... Gestern und heute... VPO.. TY!
Vorgestern, is the day before yesterday... VPO.. TY!
Egypt is most popular for its awesome pyramids !
The streets and the market place in Cairo has a striking resemblance with our country India in many ways.There,too people travel by autorickshaws for going to various places.
The pipe hukkas for smoking were very much in vogue in the then times in India and were mostly used by the zamindars ( landlords ) or by the people of elite class.The big boats with mast on sail were commonly used in India as well during the ancient times.The agriculture and farming were also done in the same way in ancient India as is done in Egypt.
The food is also very similar to the food which lndians have in their everyday life.
Overall, a wonderful scenario !
Thanks !😊
this video is older, 9 or more years. check out Rick Steves actual youtube page or his website 😊
I am quite amused when Mr.Rick
says 'hut balloons' which in India we call 'phulkas' and if the handmade bread is flat and thinner it is called 'chappatis' or 'rotis'.Anyway,when it is called 'hut balloons', the phulkas get a new and anglicised name, which sounds very natural as it is like a round ball and is the handmade bread which ordinary people have in their everyday life.😂
Amazing country
Incredible. ..program..
Fab-u-lous !
I just got back from 14 days in Egypt (7 in Cairo, 7 in Luxor)
1. Old Cairo is a mess. 2. Giza, Saqarra, Museum are excellent. Just be ready for disorganization 3. New Cairo is like a new L.A. Suburb. 4. Always use UBER. 5. Luxor ruins are amazing, just be ready for beggars and scammers. say LAAT! Means NO. Be strong when needed.
Egypt is trying hard to get up. Just know it's a 3rd world country, backwards in so many ways...be kind, control expectations and go see the world's greatest ancient ruins ever.... epic
I enjoyed your trip to Egypt. You did your usually through job of showing us the interesting sites. Had your thought of visiting Japan, China, Australia or even Quebec, or everywhere in Canada?
Beautiful Country.
Lovely video. I fell in love with Egypt. It is awesome. Just so sad so many guides take advantage of tourists. It is a turn off to go back.
Yup, been scam by our own tourist guide too. For a 12 days tour. A hefty price for a 12 days tour for a family of three. The only expensive i think that he had paid was our hotel and the Nile Cruise because they charge in US dollars but the food and drinks, entrance fee to temples and museum are really cheap. But when we get to Luxor he had put us in a cheap apartment there for 3 days with no hot water for showers. $4,000 per person and its 3 of us.
Also their vendors there are scammers and very aggressive. So many tourist trap in that country.
Hollyland ❤
Idont get the last part: how the Simbel was removed & moved to another place when it looks like it's engraved in the hill?
❤❤ Egypt❤❤
I’d love to visit Egypt.Excellent overview of Egypt
//;*;;*;;*;*;*;;//..
❤😊!
I really like this vlog because they explained about the history and culture welcome back during pandemic I watched his old vlog.
Cairo drivers are insane but surprisingly few accidents. The mosques are beautiful and the museum is outstanding. Giza was a bit disappointing...looks better in books 📚.
Giza is more about the energy, than the look!
In Arabic, Cairo is nicknamed "umm ed-dunya" (the mother of the world).
It's very good to see you again ,Mr Rick Steves.
Beautiful good looking
The Alexandria Library is buried deep underneath the airport in Egypt!! Cindy
I was very lucky to visit and return a couple of weeks before the massacre on tourists in the valley of the kings. As remarkable and life changing as it was to see ancient Egypt I would not feel safe to travel there again.
Buenísimo ❤
These are not reruns 😍
I like Ricks Narration..it is informative, playful and melodic, poetic sometimes..when the Palm trees become Silhouettes..some nice Observations and Comments..The Builders were trying to understand the Afterlife..Many temples got looted..then the Pharaohs went more discrete..more hidden with their temples......Je suis sur le Sentier...lol

Don't forget there is a Big HISTORIC City in Egypt called ALEXANDRIA..
Hence the explanation for: Tzatziki sauce, Moussaka and Stuffed Grape Leaves.
They are 2356 years old Egyptian Dishes.
That was just the major spots ...
you can go East to Dahab
or West to Siwa where it's always bright , , ,,,
I don’t like bargaining too much when I know the seller most likely doesn’t have a lot of money
The people of Egypt, as in common in the Arab world, are very hospitable and friendly. Unfortunately as a tourist, especially an independent traveler, you will be constantly bombarded by hawkers and would be scammers. They can appear friendly, and will stay friendly if you buy something but if you don't, they can turn aggressive. Egypt has such wondrous treasures and should be on anyone's bucket list but if you are not able to cope with the constant pestering, then Rick Steve's videos are about as close to Egypt as you should get.
🎉❤🎉

Schleife.. Is ribbon, like the red or yellow ribbon... VPO.. TY!

So Rick is branching out from his traditional European travels now?
I have seen numerous videos on youtube which warn visitors about various perils, however, Rick makes these seem like child's play. One youtuber even had trouble passing customs despite having a videographer permit. Rick's approach makes sense, pay extra to stay at nice places, and use a well researched guide.
21:48 "These monuments were built to mark & protect the bodies of fabulously wealthy & powerful pharaohs"...wrong, absolutely wrong!!! Et tu Rick Steves?
Fliesen schneider... For cutting tiles.. VPO.. TY!
Schneider mean's things you used for cutting... VPO.. TY!
Haar schneider... Barber shop, salon hair style... VPO.. TY!
Friseur salon.. Called it also.. VPO.. TY!
Siguiendo con la fecha que ud da, el tiemo de Akheanten (1600BC) vino despues de que DIos habia hablado con Abram (2100 BC) (Despues Abraham)
They say Akhenaten was actually not Monotheistic, he worshipped the Sun god and he considered himself a god.
Just another of history's megalomaniacs who believed that theirs is bigger than anybody else's! 🙄😁😈
Egyptian architecture and ancient heritage evoke its past glory and civilization. If anything, it's a reminder to the West that look down the East. Even the ancient Greek architecture and viable system remind us it had been copied(inspired) from ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia civilizations. I mean, it wasn't an "invention" of ancient Greece. And Romans copied(inspired) Greeks. Awkward!
Thank you for taking us along with you, so that I was able to dive into the prime origin of modern civilization of the mankind.
It's a pity that modern Egypt looks chaotic and challenging. Why pedestrians are randomly crossing the roads, instead of following the zebra crossing? This habit is dangerous and overwhelming for both pedestrians and automobile drivers. I am going to re-watch it.
I see the jewel looked the same as the Massi of Africa
Rick Steves seems obsessed with the European and compares everything to Europe. One gets the feel he would like Egypt to be in Europe.
Human had no technology and knowledge to build pyramids with such scale and precision even with today's technology.
What did you mean, sir, when you said that fundamentalism is a problem in America? Were you referring to Christian fundamentalism or Muslim fundamentalism in America?
What does it matter? They're all tarred with the same brush!
@@theoztreecrasher2647 Really? Because the last time I checked the Christian fundamentalists in America weren’t going around blowing themselves up and shouting God is great. They weren’t hijacking planes and flying them into buildings or raping, killing, and kidnapping people they didn’t like.
I love how Rick has no clue what he is smoking.
The map of Egypt is incorrect, it should be straight at Sodan boarder, Halayeb and Shalatin is Egyptian cities.
Haben Sie schon mal gefragt...........? Wozu müssen Wir als Kinders Friedenheit bringen können werden.........................?
This is a repeat! I always get tricked into thinking it's a new episode!
Kita belajar negara' Mesir egyption Mesir letaknya diarab sebenarnya tapi Dia bukan seratus persen Muslim semua macam Saudi Arabia itu campur agamanya ni sejarahnya Mesir banyak pecahan juga Inggris Spanish Turki ye. Dubai jangan Mesir itu orang' campur campur juga tapi diarab letaknya
Rick finally runout of place to go in Europe?
