    As someone who would love to do this someday, Im curious as to what your budget was. Was it broken down per day for 30 days?

    • @benbrazyoutube
      @benbrazyoutube  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Michael, thanks for asking! I wasn't following any particular budget for this trip, but I generally travel quite frugally. In total I averaged close to US$15 per day, and that includes a handful of more expensive activities. Accommodation, transportation and food are all inexpensive in Egypt. I also occasionally wild-camped for free which saved a bit of money.

    You should see it in summer !! Barely can see the sand on the beach with 40 km stalled road from Alexandria entering Matrouh , you're there in the best time of the year , I wish I was there and met you to show you some off road fantastic places , true it's not touristic to fireigners but it's one of the most popular and affordable summer destinations for Egyptians .

    • @benbrazyoutube

      Yeah well the town was mostly dead but it had cool vibes. The apartment and view made it a cool experience

    The part next to the beach is not bad, but the city and facilities are desperate. This year, for the first time, our travel agencies here in Serbia are taking a hotel chain from Dubai to this place. But I'm not sure if that city is the right choice.

    I went to Matruh 5 times and visited many beaches there, and I think you missed a lot of wonderful beaches by not visiting them. Next time, take someone who knows the town with you to show you the places you should not miss.
