Sorry for that experience, we are all vulnerable to this situation (including Egyptians), if we did not first make sure you both agree on the deal, and prepare the change money always for this situation and just pay what agreed upon without hassle or being exploited. We in Egypt have a word means "Street people" referring to misbehaved or uneducated persons (even if they can read), not all of them are bad, but many are acting poorly and are frustrated. They try to play clever by taking advantage of another person (mostly polite or stranger) or they take any stupid opportunity as a chance to earn more money. Take this Recipe 🔎for wiser guidelines Street guys + in the city + lack of education = High potential of childish behavior/weird/worst experience ever / risk of bumping in criminals or outlaws Village guys + (with/without education) = Mostly very peaceful , generous, warmhearted people / less risk / wholesome experience
I’m not Egyptian but visited Egypt before and going there again soon the ride was very cheap for 100 EGP so you shouldn’t be upset at all What the driver was saying that it isn’t worth the 50 pounds and trip was further than he thought and he rather not pay me as isn’t worth it and you can keep the money The driver was very nice and polite Keep up the good work Tom
100egp for an 18min ride is too much. rule of thumb is 1egp per minute. of course they're going to double charge tourists but that means this ride is worth 40egp at most.
100 Egyptian pounds is USD$3.00. I wouldn't used the word "scammed" over $1.50. Ali was saying 50 pounds was too low a price and he was absolutely right. If it were me I would have given Ali 200 pounds without thinking twice about it.
In here 2:11 he was saying that he asked someone to read him what was written in the card because he didn't go to school. So that old man read him the directions.
guys, especially in Egypt, you have to have Egyptian friend with you (someone you trust not a scammer), and believe me you'll have amazing trip without any scamming.

I watched all your videos in Egypt 👍 but You should have had some of the lower denominations of currency such as 5, 10 and 20 and also agree on the price before taking the taxi or toktok and this trip is worth 10 or 15 Egyptian pounds at most. Always negotiate the price of whatever product you want to buy. Unfortunately, there are many scammers. May you have a good trip in Egypt

Egypt is a nice country but this scammers and people bothering you is so next level i cant handle that shit thats why i dont visit egypt i dont wanna end up in prison in Egypt
I understand. It's to be expected though so calculate that into your trip and see it as part of the experience, you will see the other side of Cairo in videos to come.
you stayed hopefully and did not let your mood spoil. in Lebanon, tourists often pay more than what it costs. But most of them are very warm and friendly, certainly also in Egypt.
Sure am from Egypt don't worry Egypt is safe but There are swindlers in the shops when they meet foreigners am from Alexandria , Egypt if you need plan to visit egypt am with you for free
I recommend you not to go,, honestly Egypt isn't that beautiful as u see in social media and others.. And the trip he took in the video doesn't even cost a 15 or 25 Egyptian pound at maximum,, and he just took a 100 pounds from him!! The people are not good at all too,, so my own opinion is that Egypt is not a big deal,, there's alot of beautiful places in the world that you can visit,, like turkey or South Korean, etc..
For a TukTuk this was a long trip. You will get a short ride for 15 or maybe even 10 egp. As he showed you the neighborhood 50 egp is acceptable. At first he didn't even want to take money from you at all.
Another piece of information he told you that he will take you on a tour before going to the hotel, that is why he asks a lot about the beauty of the area and the people Haha
U know at first this guy was saying he don’t know how to read or write after that he was asking if u want to see the country side , then that he asked u what u think about it , when he about to drop u he said that it was a honor to meet 50 not enough u can keep 100 and It was pleasure to know u , when u gave it to him he said thanks ur such respectful guy if my phone wasn’t stolen I will definitely take ur number .miscommunication happen every and Egyptian are too friendly they will try there best to help u they will make sure u will not ask anyone after them

I was there last week.. Agree a price first, be stubborn as well show balls , also hold the correct amount and not try to argue for a change while he holds your money . I had the same issue I didn't give in I turned aggressive and demanded change, he complied in the end.
the toktok driver asked for the card because he mentioned that he was illiterate. Then in the middle of the drive he asked if you would like him to take you a round the old town or something he was just being nice lol
Dear already the driver of tuktuk he dont exctally the place, he ask again the address, and he ask people's in street, so yo told price is 50 pound befor you go youlr place and he agree, after that he noted is different way and different place, so He deserve to take 100pound. Also for you information the place is very far 100pound is very less. Regards dear
Welcome to Morocco, a hospitable and safe country where the price of everything is right and there are free ones here where we welcome everyone as brothers and where you can even live for free with a family because everyone welcomes strangers for their generosity and improve the image of the country in the eyes of all tourists Whoever has the money and who doesn't can visit Morocco and enjoy it. ❤️🇲🇦
I have watched several of your videos, I know you try to make it on TH-cam but buddy this is not for you!!!! The man drove you around half the town and you want to give him 50 Egyptian pounds less than a dollor in USA, you crazy man! Have smaller bills already in your pocket and you keep doing this you will get yourself in a situation where no one can help you they will just chop you up feed you to the sharks and that will be the end of you! This ain’t for everybody!!! Rethink what your doing with your life!
This ride is worth 16 EGP or 0,50€. Avoid tuk tuk in Cairo, they are organized crime group from Mansheya Nasir neighborhood.. Just like airport taxi mafia.
Cairo is totally not beautiful, everything js dirty and old… people they are not nice if you go egypt.. prefer hurghada. But egypt is not interesting.. you can better go to Morocco or Turkey
@@codycarter6389 Why is egypt more interesting because of the history i am agreed. But cairo is nothing more then dirty and scammers if you’re looking to things as: food & culture definitely morocco is better

no one does the tourism industry in egypt more damage than these city scammers do. outside of cities people are genuinely more honest. the smaller the village the more generous and honest.
also inside the cities but u dont meet them they are busy with their life / ppl in cities came from villages in the first place they have families in those villages
I was in Egypt and was scammed several times even though I speak Arabic. But I think the price of 100 pounds is appropriate for such a long distance, the driver was very nice to you and told you that you can keep the money, he also told you that he wanted your number your phone but unfortunately he lost her mobile. he wasn't a scammer, but her problem was that he didn't know how to write or read, so he asked others to find the address
@@amd99288 I am brother. He forced the guy over a different price from the one they agreed to. 50 pounds was already a high price, to double that...? He's a bad person my guy.

غلط ... أنا من المغرب وزرت مصر من 6 شهور وأشهد أن اغلبيتهم ناس طيبين و محترمين و يساعدون الغير . ولكن طبعا مثل كل دولة لازم تصادف ناس قليلة مش كويسة. كنت محظوظ تعرفت على سواق أوبر احسن واحد و لما وداني المطار جابلي هدية !! لم أندم على الزيارة بل و متحمس للرجوع أيضا
First, you are welcome in Egypt at any time, the amount requested by the driver is not as much as you think, but there was a misunderstanding that he does not know the education, not only the English language, and he was respectful with you and friendly and I am sorry for what happened to you
The amount isn't that much??? Are you kidding 😂? A toktok takes normally around 20-25 pounds in such a drive! And it can go for less if you can negotiate. I have no idea where you live bud! But yeah he was friendly and nice but also a fuckin scammer!
What he was telling you that he is Illiterate which means that he cannot read or write so there is a misunderstanding. He even told you to keep the 100 and he doesn't want the money and He was pleased to meet you!
This is lying. He can enter the front and get you in front of a hotel, but when he talked to a lady he told her don't move I will take you and he cut half a distance to take other people really sorry for you in this experience 😑
Are you in Egypt back again or is it recorded I enjoy your videos they are very nice A tuktuk person tells you that he is not good at reading or writing. That is why the seller was asked. He says that his father took him out of school without education.
Hello Tom I’m from Egyptian ethnicity and I like the videos your making about the country. I want you to watch out fir some of the scammers out there cause they know you don’t speak Arabic they will take advantage of your money so stay safe. And lastly he said you can keep the 100 pounds if it’s ok with you but then since you respectfully denied it he then wanted to keep the full 100 and indeed you did get scammed they shouldn’t charge you over 50 pounds to go at Least a mile worth of a destination
I'm Egyptian and I've been living in Berlin for the last 7 years, and I know how would this experience be strange for you, but I only recommend that you take Uber or Careem instead of Tuktuks or Taxis to avoid being scammed
Tom this guy was so nice the once you should have talked about are the Once that was telling you to not film (matssawarch) like the guy selling sweet potato after you gave him money he turned into a monster and fired you away and the other bad people harassing you but this one deserves more money he said they even stole his phone he's a nice guy
And he also told you he does not know how to read or write in Arabic or any language because his parents never put them in school they didn't have the money

Same.
Hello Tom. Not everyone has the courage to enter such lanes and areas. Really, you are brave and have great strength of heart. I watch your clips and look at the people you talk to. Their faces are very frightening. I wish you safety. I am from Syria and reside in Norway.
Thank you 🤝🏻

Nice vids bro
Thanks playa
I was there last week.. Agree a price first, be stubborn as well show balls , also hold the correct amount and not try to argue for a change while he holds your money . I had the same issue I didn't give in I turned aggressive and demanded change, he complied in the end.
In this country always agree with anyone you deal with before you do something ☝🏼
100 Egyptian pounds is a bit too much, not your amount 😮
ابن حلال السايق على نياته ومو عارف ايش يتكلم الخواجه
the toktok driver asked for the card because he mentioned that he was illiterate. Then in the middle of the drive he asked if you would like him to take you a round the old town or something he was just being nice lol
Dear already the driver of tuktuk he dont exctally the place, he ask again the address, and he ask people's in street, so yo told price is 50 pound befor you go youlr place and he agree, after that he noted is different way and different place, so
He deserve to take 100pound.
Also for you information the place is very far 100pound is very less.
Regards dear
Fixed (and fair) prices could be the solution for this nonsense bargaining!!
Egypt 99% scamer like Ali trust me
ali give to u weed 🤣🤣🤣🤣
What do you think about the egyptian people ?
nice people even the scammers weren't bad on average I'd feed maybe 35 percent of the scammers to the fish the rest were chilled 😁
Scammer 99%
When do you come to Morocco?
Next year if possible
@@tom_aku you welcome
ساسلام
What do you use to record? Also do you use a selfie stick or do you hold it yourself?
Wow that's the first time am seeing Cairo roads.. Thought it was forbidden to film in Egypt..?
Welcome to Morocco, a hospitable and safe country where the price of everything is right and there are free ones here where we welcome everyone as brothers and where you can even live for free with a family because everyone welcomes strangers for their generosity and improve the image of the country in the eyes of all tourists
Whoever has the money and who doesn't can visit Morocco and enjoy it. ❤️🇲🇦
Doesnt mean that in egypt they re all like that, there are good and friendly egyptians
حتا المصريين خوتنا 🇲🇦❤🇪🇬
Morocco😂😂😂😂
مصر الأساس والباقي كله فشنك
@@moazkhaled6381 المقابلة راح تبين 😅
I have watched several of your videos, I know you try to make it on TH-cam but buddy this is not for you!!!! The man drove you around half the town and you want to give him 50 Egyptian pounds less than a dollor in USA, you crazy man! Have smaller bills already in your pocket and you keep doing this you will get yourself in a situation where no one can help you they will just chop you up feed you to the sharks and that will be the end of you! This ain’t for everybody!!! Rethink what your doing with your life!
If I can meet you I will show you amazing places in Egypt I am a friend 🤗😘🇪🇬
من الواضح انك نشأت في مؤسسة عسكرية عريقة يا tom aku
Why you say this
@@tom_aku شعور فقط تمتلك بنيه جسمانية رياضية وتمتلك اعصاب فلاذية كما ان لديك ماشية عسكرية مثل جنود.الصاعقة ........ تحياتي 🙏🏻🌹
Even 50 is too much so better if you keep small money separated & don't show them the all thing
This ride is worth 16 EGP or 0,50€. Avoid tuk tuk in Cairo, they are organized crime group from Mansheya Nasir neighborhood.. Just like airport taxi mafia.
Cairo is totally not beautiful, everything js dirty and old… people they are not nice if you go egypt.. prefer hurghada. But egypt is not interesting.. you can better go to Morocco or Turkey
I'm from Morocco and i can tell you Morocco is beautiful but still Egypt is more Interesting
@@codycarter6389 Why is egypt more interesting because of the history i am agreed. But cairo is nothing more then dirty and scammers if you’re looking to things as: food & culture definitely morocco is better
@@mrcd9982 believe me not many tourists want to see the beautiful clean streets and Medina of the capital Rabat, most tourists want to see the dirty, different kind of cities, and this is something most of us Moroccans find it hard to understand
2.12. He say I am not educated, my father and mother dropped me out of school
no one does the tourism industry in egypt more damage than these city scammers do. outside of cities people are genuinely more honest. the smaller the village the more generous and honest.
also inside the cities but u dont meet them they are busy with their life / ppl in cities came from villages in the first place they have families in those villages

✌️✌️✌️✌️👍👍👍🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦
I was in Egypt and was scammed several times even though I speak Arabic. But I think the price of 100 pounds is appropriate for such a long distance, the driver was very nice to you and told you that you can keep the money, he also told you that he wanted your number your phone but unfortunately he lost her mobile. he wasn't a scammer, but her problem was that he didn't know how to write or read, so he asked others to find the address
Where you went in egypt ?
100 Egyptian pounds is a good deal for a viral vlog , Ali has another level kindness 🙏🏽 keep it up
But also a scammer
@@yousufkhamis5135 be a fair judge 🤣
@@amd99288 I am brother. He forced the guy over a different price from the one they agreed to. 50 pounds was already a high price, to double that...? He's a bad person my guy.
احلى شي عجبني في فيديوهات هاد الإنسان هو يوم كان يأكل عند احلى انسان بالدنيا اكل وما حاسبة على شي أكثر وما طمع فيه القناعه ياناس هادوا مثال لنص المصريين والنص عيب عليكم بتخربو صورت بلدكم
كنت ناوي اجي مصر بس للاسف كل يوم اشوف فيديوات بنفس الشكل معضم الحالات فيها نصب معادش عندنا ثقه في السياحه… اتمنى السبوك هذا يتغير وترجع مصر ام الدنيا مثل ما كانت
انا مصري وبنصحك تيجي بس حاول تصاحب حد من مصر وتخروجوا مع بعض عشان هيعرف يسلك مع المصريين الي زيه ومش هتندم
غلط ... أنا من المغرب وزرت مصر من 6 شهور وأشهد أن اغلبيتهم ناس طيبين و محترمين و يساعدون الغير . ولكن طبعا مثل كل دولة لازم تصادف ناس قليلة مش كويسة. كنت محظوظ تعرفت على سواق أوبر احسن واحد و لما وداني المطار جابلي هدية !! لم أندم على الزيارة بل و متحمس للرجوع أيضا
This is such disgusting behaviour, don’t they have fear of Allah
Al final llegó a la dirección que quería???
Man the level of poverty and ignorance i saw in egypt is heartaching
First, you are welcome in Egypt at any time, the amount requested by the driver is not as much as you think, but there was a misunderstanding that he does not know the education, not only the English language, and he was respectful with you and friendly and I am sorry for what happened to you
The amount isn't that much??? Are you kidding 😂? A toktok takes normally around 20-25 pounds in such a drive! And it can go for less if you can negotiate.
I have no idea where you live bud!
But yeah he was friendly and nice but also a fuckin scammer!
@@yousufkhamis5135 ايوه لكن هو اللى غلطان دي مش مشكله مصريين
@@moazkhaled6381 انت بتقول ايه يا معلم وضحلي؟
@@yousufkhamis5135 بقولك هو اللى غلطان واحد جاي مصر مبيتكلمش عربى رايح منطقه شعبيه عايز اي وانت عارف ان هي دي الطريقه فى مصر احنا ماعندناش اسعار ثابته
@@moazkhaled6381 اللي أوله شرط آخره نور. طالما اتفق معاه على سعر يخليه راجل وميغيرش سعره بعد ما يوصله ويجبره عليه، ده اسمه نصب، مش في عرفنا ده.
What he was telling you that he is Illiterate which means that he cannot read or write so there is a misunderstanding. He even told you to keep the 100 and he doesn't want the money and He was pleased to meet you!
If you ride a tuk tuk or taxi, you must pay only the agreed salary and not the increase in that cause they will take it
This is lying. He can enter the front and get you in front of a hotel, but when he talked to a lady he told her don't move I will take you and he cut half a distance to take other people really sorry for you in this experience 😑
Becsuse you want cheap transfer this usually happend . This transfer for poor egyptains not for tourists .if you want to be comfort take uber .
who says I'm wealthy
Tom at minute 16:13 told him you son of a bitch
😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂
Are you in Egypt back again or is it recorded I enjoy your videos they are very nice
A tuktuk person tells you that he is not good at reading or writing. That is why the seller was asked. He says that his father took him out of school without education.
Hello Tom I’m from Egyptian ethnicity and I like the videos your making about the country. I want you to watch out fir some of the scammers out there cause they know you don’t speak Arabic they will take advantage of your money so stay safe. And lastly he said you can keep the 100 pounds if it’s ok with you but then since you respectfully denied it he then wanted to keep the full 100 and indeed you did get scammed they shouldn’t charge you over 50 pounds to go at Least a mile worth of a destination
هو اللى غلطان رايح منطقه شعبيه ومبيتكلمش عربى
Tomas, take my advice and speak more into the camera. Not just pokerface 😎
Na, don't feel like it 😎
@@tom_aku Tom you’re a South African Getto gangster
توم. انها صفقة عادلة نظرا الى الوقت الذي استمتعت به
good content , keep going
You should have chosen uper because even me as egyptian if I am not from the same neighborhood they will scam me 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Stop sticking your phone out like that. It will be snatched very quick.
they will give my phone back out of pity its 6 years old and broken.
@@tom_aku no man many of my people dont even have phone, so old broken one better than no phone yes?
@@Sythorize it's a skill just to get my phone to charge, they will try this and get so frustrated they will find me to give the phone back.
@@tom_aku LOL
Biggest Scam of 2021 tuk tuk driver (dishonest)
I'm Egyptian and I've been living in Berlin for the last 7 years, and I know how would this experience be strange for you, but I only recommend that you take Uber or Careem instead of Tuktuks or Taxis to avoid being scammed
Taxi drivers would scam me too 50 percent of the time
@@tom_aku you are rong
@@tom_aku uber and careem show you the price before you get off the car so it's more reliable
100 egy pounds is too much for tukTuk 10 or 15 was enough. You should have a charge next time it's important where ever u go
Tom this guy was so nice the once you should have talked about are the Once that was telling you to not film (matssawarch) like the guy selling sweet potato after you gave him money he turned into a monster and fired you away and the other bad people harassing you but this one deserves more money he said they even stole his phone he's a nice guy
Nice video
thank you
ali have no money for drugs 😂😂😂😂 على سبرسجى شمام كله منور يوتيوب
And he also told you he does not know how to read or write in Arabic or any language because his parents never put them in school they didn't have the money
الحين مصور الرجال ولاف فيه القاهره ومصوره الرجال
الاخ المصري محترم
اما الشخص الثاني يحتاج دورات تعليم التواصل مع الناس
المشكلة مش فى الجنوب افريقى المشكلة للبيشرح للاجانب ان تمن التوصيلة غالي جدا ودى الحقيقة بس ممكن نعرفهم ان يجب الاتفاق الاول مع السائق ويكون معاك ديما فلوس فكه ومتخفش من الفصال ومتنساش لان القاهرة بتواجد بها هولاء السائحين المنفردين اللي معروفين بفصالهم وفلوسهم القليلة
الله المستعان، بسبب هذه التصرفات تتسببون بجعل سمعة مصر سيئة سياحيا دون جني أي شيء، المفترض أن السائح يهتم بالتجربة فقط بدل الاهتمام بكيفية تجنب الاحتيال طوال اليوم.
يا اخي سمعة مصر مثل الذهب منذ الاف السنيين ام الدنيا
و ثانيا السائق لا يعرف الانكليزية حتى يفهم السائح ان المشوار اطول من ما اتفق معاه و المبلغ كله على بعضه لا يستاهل
تحياتي
6 دولار مش كتير الولد دخل من شوارع جانبية عشان يختصر المسافة
@@aliayman8815
هو ما نختلف لكن المفترض يكونون واضحين دائما كذا عند الأهرمات وبأماكن السياحة، لو هم يقولون للسياح ٥٠ من البداية ما فيه سائح يقول لا لكن الإشكال أنهم يقولون بالبداية ١٠ ولا ٢٠ ثم لو وصل يقول له ٥٠
@@سليمانالعنزي-ذ7ف الهرم في فعلا بعض النصابين ولازم الدولة تشوف حل لهم ..وبعض البازارات ايضا لازم تفاصل معاهم ..والمصريين نفسهم يفاصلون معهم ..وحكاية الفصال دي في دول كتيرة للاسف
@@aliayman8815
اتفق معاك
Be safe bro. Don't go to strange areas. Get red of tuktuks. Use Uber
Where is the fun in that 🤔
Ohhh, 100 is too expensive for tok tok, I just pay 15.. Be carful the next time you should have change with you ...At the end of the video, He was saying that he wanted to take your phone number but his phone has been stolen 😅
🤥
