The truth about being a tourist in Luxor, Egypt. Did you experience this?? It's a bit crazy in Luxor with all the scammers, especially near Luxor Temple.
wow, this is a great authentic video! :) ...brought back so much memories! :) ...I love the way you can handle them though.... The hassle is really exhausting, but your're so positive and able to twist it into jokes so quickly! I wish I could do that :)
You did very well in your walk-around, Janet. You have exactly the right attitude, being polite and smiling while firmly saying no. That's the best way, although of course it doesn't always work, as we know! The reception you found was absolutely typical, in my experience. They try to be very persuasive and accommodating, and one has to be quite firm to resist. I believe the tradition is for the first-born in the family to be named Mohamed, hence the vast numbers you come across with that name. The locals always find a way of distinguishing the names by use of nicknames, etc! Good fun video - well done!
Janet, thanks for posting your adventures! This looked stressful, I don’t think I could handle it! Kudos to you for hanging by yourself, or did you have anyone with you in the Souk?
Well done Janet :) You've really had a great adventure, I've been working there for a year and I love these people, the city should give more work but the people there are amazing and they can give more for tourism. can't wait to see your Hurghada video. I also had a great experience of this city. greetings
Beautiful people, I love the way you handled yourself!!! The way that you are being approached, is the way that I was approached at the Cancun airport by taxi drivers.. Hundreds of men screaming at me and approaching me to get in their taxi cab, after I had told all of them that I had a private cab already 😅.
Hi..I really enjoyed your vlog..you gave me a tour from riding train to visiting that place...I've been living here for 20yrs but I haven't visited Luxor yet..enjoy and keep safe.
Well, That's how sales work.. And it's annoying in all countries! I remember an American employee at an American Publishing company kept calling me every day for a whole week to make me publish my book there (in return of a big amount of money of course) I was annoyed but I wouldn't call her a scammer. Luxur is amazing, the temples there will make you feel like you are thousands of years back in time. I wouldn't miss that just because of the salesmen.
Great vid. We leave for Luxor this month. The kids are so cute. After visiting market/bazars In Turkey and Israel, no more. We are done with the haggling. Oh, and great maneuver with the guy who asked you which tour group you used. That was really smart.
Nah they were definitely saying Alaska. They even explain it and think they’re hilarious. They said it in Hurghada too. Right after they shout Shakira Shakira at any blonde woman.
As an Egyptian man, I hope the ministry of tourism stop those people who make the guests feel so bad about what they do, but I think this is existing in most countries and the citizens don't do like this with tourists.
Well, welcome to your second home indeed, it's " EGYPT "' & THE incense is for the good freshness and beauty of the place' thanks for your visit' Come again.
Welcome to Egypt and visit us and invite your friends from Ireland too Egypt wonderful country and nice people also old history nice wither fantastic also food wooow
Nice vlog janet im so embarrassed of some bade behaviours apologize on behalf of the Egyptian of some stingy sellers,hope u have a great time and come back again.
@Mia - Sᴇx Cʜᴀɴɴᴇʟ 18+🅥 is that a grammar lesson miss mia to talk about :(a) vowel or Luxor or al uxor ,let me teel u a thing in Arabic we الاقصر(the Luxor city)when we talk about the city as a city we put the which mean ال in Arabic like we say the new York city for example , maybe there's no such a thing in English language but in Arabic there is such a thing and vowel vs un vowel are totally different in Arabic than English ,u know Arabic has 12m words seperated words ,evey language has its difference.
4:10 It is not "welcome to Alaska" Lol 😆 The "Al" in Arabic, which means "The" in English, is sometimes pronounced as "la", le" or "lu" in some Arabic accents. So, the proper real pronunciation of Lu-xor in standard Arabic is in fact Al-uxor not Luxor! So, they are saying "Welcome to Al-uxor". Now, Luxor can also sound like it can be said in Standard Arabic but only when it is in the middle of a sentence like "wa Al-uxor" but because there is an "a" vowel in "wa" it kinda makes it sounds like "wa luxor".

Where is the fraud? They are normal situations that any human being in any country is exposed to, and it is not required that he be a tourist, a stranger, or a son of the country.

Dont trust horse and camel scammers They are lie when they tell you 10 Egyptian pound for horse ride. The want to hunting you by ride with them. Then after destination. They told you 150 Egyptian pound
Egypt is a nice country but unfortunately one thing annoy the tourists which are the seller and every person their insist on the tourist or forces him to eat , and to ride a horse , camel , toktok or Taxi , or if you only look at some stuff or things they stick to you to buy and if you ask about the cost of something they give you a cost too expensive and if you are a good in dealing and negotiation and have patience you buy it by only a quarter of its first price , for that reason you see many tourists say that he will not visit Egypt again although in reality he wants to repeat his trips more , we ask the Egyptians to let the tourists feel comfortable , and not to interfere with their freedom , if you depend on Allah for your livelihood whether from tourists or any other person , it will undoubtedly come but if you want to get it from scamming , i think you will put obstacles in front of a true permanent sustenance , it may be few , but it is continuous and with halal .
Hello Janet, I am Hassan from Iraq. I would like to ask you what is the difference between Iraq and Egypt, according to your opinion, and you have visited both countries??? ♥️

Wellcome to Egypt ,Janet ,hope to visit again

I’m here now after 5 days in Cairo, though I was gonna get a break from the hassle and scammers. Boy was I wrong!!!
It's great you are in my city
Ihope have a good time in Luxor
Weird how these men follow you around everywhere, not even minding their own business 😕 weird.

Hi janet...hope you always good....so..how many countries have you visited?
Very stressful place. You should visit Iran, you won't be harassed there.
Everywhere it's got its prons & cons
😂😂😂
I like your beautiful smile, welcome to Egypt .
They actually don't say "welcome to Alaska". They say "welcome to Al-Aksur". Al-Aksur is the Arabic name of Luxor.
I am from Luxor very happy to have you😍🤩
Miss Janet, when you visited Iraq, sellers and shops did not force the tourist to buy, but were naturally very generous, unlike this in Egypt
Yes they were very kind and welcoming
right
لا تعمم
وياريت تتوقفوا عن عقد النقص التي لديكم هذه
As an Egyptian man, I hope the ministry of tourism stop those people who make the guests feel so bad about what they do, but I think this is existing in most countries and the citizens don't do like this with tourists.
