We only had one day to explore Luxor, Egypt, so even though we barely slept on the overnight train from Cairo, we went out at 7:00 A.M. to be the first and only tourists at the incredible Luxor Temple! It was totally worth it because it wasn't too hot yet and we took all the videos and photos we wanted with NO other people! Once the first tour bus arrived, we headed back to our hotel and had breakfast (AND COFFEE), but then decided to nap for few hours to wait out the mid day heat before heading to the Valley of the Kings via a $0.10 ferry and $7 taxi. Once again, we felt like there should have been way more tourists than there was, but we weren't complaining!

Originally from Nashville, Tennessee, we got married June 2013 and quickly caught the travel bug! We started “travel hacking” and taking more trips together and finally decided we wanted to travel for one year. After 2 years of saving $ and travel hacking over 2 million miles and points, we sold our cars and apartment and left home January 10, 2016. We started this TH-cam channel to share our experiences with friends and family, then decided we really liked vlogging and traveling. So we extended our 1 year trip to THREE years :) Now we have a goal of traveling to 100 countries before Nate turns 30 (which is March 20, 2019)! We are incredibly thankful to do something we love every day. :)
The best advice I ever got in Luxor was from a taxi driver as we passed McDonalds. "Don't get the fishburger", he said. Unfortunately, it was my first time venturing out after having been laid low for 3 days with food poisoning. I'd already had the fishburger ...
I've eaten at that McDonald's and it is disgusting!
I ate at that McDonald's and it was nasty!
@@jasminehelen8951 tell us one more time how bad it was lol

I can’t believe how little tourist there are in Egypt!! So amazing to be standing in such a dated, historical place... I mean B.C.!! Crazy!!! And that little boy who walked y’all to the boat was so cute and kind, whet a gem!!
Stay you 😘
Tourists don't come to luxuor and Aswan in summer it's very hot now so that's why there weren't people
@@MyBeboooooooooo i went to luxor and aswan in winter it was very crowded with tourists and the weather was like 25° C
in summer it us higher than 40 or 45 °C
so few tourists go there in summer
Just wait until the tour buses pull in.
My absolute bucket listed trip before I die 🙌🏻
I went to Cairo in November and it was perfect weather. Is luxor the same temp in November as well?
Egypt is so cool. I've always been fascinated, so I'm glad to get to see it. Thanks for letting me come along with you, as always!
And I know that people bothering you to try and sell you things is annoying, but I kinda feel bad for them. As you mentioned, they're only trying to make a living, and with tourism down they're very persistent because they're so desperate. It makes me grateful for what I have, even though it's not much at all. ❤
They live by the tourists in Egypt. it is the country's chief revenue. a few dollars really means a lot to them but nothing to you. when I go to countries like Egypt, I set aside an amount to give to people.
The fact is that they don't want to work normal jobs because scamming a few people a day is easier. People in Asia are poor too but the hassle in Egypt is 50 times worse. If you travel on your own without a tour, it's really a nightmare and I wouldn't recommend anyone doing it.
yes, i agree-the poverty is sad. however, anybody nagging me to buy, is an instant lost cause. i'd rather give charity to some kid sitting quietly.
Doesnt Islam take care of its people? Like welfare of any kind?
Night visitor
So tell me what it is then.?
I have always been told that tourism is the most important thing for Egypt. it's their main income.
My wife and I were in the exact same sites you were in 2008. There were wall to wall tourists at every location. How lucky you were to visit Egypt and have so much privacy. What a wonderful country. We would return there in a minute. Keep your great videos coming...take care.
till 2010 there were about 12 million people travelling to egypt annually
Man that kid is the best. Like a lil angel 😇
Ahhh! The little boy was so cute!!
I know I miss him!!!
You didn't tip him how can you miss him ?????
Fact
@Ankit Banerjee how is that rude bro?
Not tipping some young boy for helping you is rude !
You have to live with it or go back and find him and give him double.
Guilty conscience ufffffff
@@theheart2585 they said they tried to give him money and he wouldn't take it
i cried because of that little kid
What a cute guide, Mahmood was so so cute and kind
I am so addicted to watching your travels. You two are the cutest couple ever! I love watching because you make me smile. Your positivity, happiness and overall joy make a bad day better. When I'm having a bad day, I know all I have to do is watch you. Thank you for your joyfulness.
Your life is my life goals
Watching your vlogs has given me the confidence to start travelling with my partner and made me want to go so many places I would have never thought of going before.
I wish I had your confidence and talent for vlogging.
So even though I’m not in the position to travel currently you guys inspire me even in the little things like trying the Indian restaurant just down the road from my house (much to my husbands surprise) and it was delicious! So thank you for all you guys do in inspiring people not only to travel but to try new things!
How was the Indian food?! I am so pleased that you enjoy our vlogs and are encouraged to try new experiences because of them! That is so cool! ❤️
Kara and Nate it changed our world!! It was so delicious and we can’t wait to explore more of it! 😊
Egypt is one of my favourite places.
👌👌👌👌
your videos are so addicting i’ve been binging them for hours on end over the past few days. you guys are just so positive and fun to watch and make every place seem so interesting. there are so many new places i want to go now!
Hi hun u r welcome Egypt Luxor city am tour guide 00201003691748 whats app
I’ve been using your videos as part of my homeschool curriculum with my 1st grader! We love watching you guys! This video was perfect because we have been learning about Egypt the last couple weeks!! ❤️
Your vlogs make me want to travel to places I didn’t even know existed.
We love hearing that!
Same!
@@KaraandNate See the beauty and splendor of Luxor during the curfew

You had no idea Egypt existed....far out lol
Stuart Stripling no actually I have heard of Egypt I was simply making a general comment on their video. Next time I’ll specify.
Watching this, I think you might be one of the only people in the world to have such awesome footage all by yourself. Truly amazing!
The boy was adorable! Kids love to practice English and make friends, all over the world.
What I bring for thank-you gifts. Put a couple of pens and a small notebook in a baggie. Write a thank-you note in the notebook with your vlog address. Add a postcard from Tennessee or Nashville or wherever. Or your photo. They will never forget you! And, may even see themselves on your vlog!!
You both are by far the best travel bloggers out there!
You two are amazing. Bring back memories I have of Luxor and Aswan 20 years ago that will live with me for ever. Nicely done ❤️
Kara and Nate, What I found so refreshing was that you did not feel the need to learn every single historical factoid and instead knew the basics. Instead your videos are so well edited and you placed importance on things like getting to Luxor at 7 am to EXPERIENCE the place by yourself. I am planning 7 nights in Egypt for next year and will now look through your other videos to try to get a feel as to what sights will be the coolest to experience given what my likes are. I can already tell the Luxor will be the highlight followed by the Pyramids BUT only because that is a must check the box sight. I don't think I would care for the Nile cruise but plan on watching your video on that next. Thanks to both of you and keep traveling. Eddie aka Edtravelbug
I love how Kara is wearing jeans when it's 165 supposed to be outside! Btw if been subscribed for 3 years! Hope y'all still keep on going around the world it's so cool that you take random people to come where you are and you never stop! That's what I love about you guys! Have a good day! Thanks 🙏!
This is an Islamic country after all. You never shows your knees. Even men don't wear shorts. Plus it was early in the morning so the heat wasn';t that bad.
Amazing! How nice to have the temple and the Valley of the Kings all to yourself at least for a short time. That little boy was precious. Have yall ever visited a place where you were insulted or yelled at because you are American tourist?
We have never experienced that! If people have been mad about us being American, they were at least mad quietly haha
Egypt is very America friendly. I have visited 6 times and we're going again for a two month stay in Luxor in October.
Gosh Darn Nate! Once again your videography is superb. Capturing the vastness of the columns and open spaces, wall carvings and statuary. Absolutely stunning. Kate excellent ediiting and commentary. I and I'm sure many many more are so happy to have you back.💕
Welcome to Egypt, the land of civilization always 🇪🇬💜
Mamut reminds me of my little brother which warmed my heart. He would 100% run around showing tourists where to go just to have fun and meet new people.
cool vlog...we were going to go there but missed out. My wife got sick....we ended up staying more days in sharm doing amazing dives.
It was so cool to revisit Luxor by watching your video. I was there as an independent traveler in 1991 during Ramadan and stayed in the old Winter Palace Hotel. I too had the place pretty much to myself. I fell in love with Egypt after seeing the paintings of David Roberts.
You're so lucky to have been able to see these marvelous things! How wonderful you shared the views of the ancient Egyptian areas with us.
I love how they both are always so positive
This is unbelievably beautiful!! The hyroglyphics on the walls are so well intact after thousands of years! What did the Egyptians use to make the different colors? If only I had the money to go to Egypt and see all this still in its glorified perfect state! I would be so overwhelmed I'd probably start crying! Absolutely stunning
Natural dye.
So cool that you had that whole area by yourselves ! Those moments while traveling are so magical and can’t be explained in words!! Rad video guys !!
The little boy "Mamu" for what I heard, made my whole day too😊
Clau Gonl it's Mahmoud
It may be nice to add that Mahmoud means 'a praised one'.
Hlo
They didn't tip the boy
@@theheart2585 Tipping should only be given when least expected and 'bakshih' is a frown upon custom in Islam, which ironically is rampant in majority muslim Egypt!
Such an awesome vlog!!! I feel like I could just watch hours of you guys everyday!! I started watching your vlogs from the beginning and that kinda has satisfies my needs lol!! ♡♡♡
I absolutely love your videos! I've been following you guys since you started pretty much, and the footage gets better and better. Just wanted to thank you guys for sticking to this and sharing so much information about all these amazing places in the world! :-)
My husband worked in tourism based in Luxor, it's been great for us as you walked around and he shared his memories there with me. He was angry at first, but with a little bit of research found out the camera ban has been lifted at the VOK.....so now he just jealous as he never was able to even bring a camera into the valley. He even got to do a dig with the archaeologist during the revolution when it was closed to the public. So for him to say he is jealous, that is something :P He misses the place very much.
You both are living my dream right now! Waiting on the vlogs everyday. Love from Amsterdam 💕
Marijna du Pre you can make your dream fact . Luxor Egypt waiting for holland ppl .your welcome
I have been binge watching all of your videos & as someone who will probably never get to travel to all of these beautiful fantastic places, thank you from my whole heart for living life for us all and sharing your journeys ❤ I’m in awe of you both
Great to have you back! Shots and editing getting better by the vlog! Keep going, guys!
Egypt is the cradle of all civilisations 💓
Greetings from the Sultanate of Oman 🇴🇲
Traveling the world and thousands of. Vendor’s following me I finally put my finger to my lip and loudly but politely say shhhhhhbhh and after true puzzled look they totally leave us alone. My husband was amazed !
How awesome to have the temple all to yourselves!! Totally worth being up early for it! Loved seeing all the tombs and temples in today's vlog!
It's always so sweet to see how Nate wakes Kara up ~ Also, thank you both for bringing us with you to see the world!!!! You have no idea how much it makes us happy and excited for these :> And as always I am glad to see how they're respectful of the different customs of the place. It's what everyone should remember whilst travelling overseas.
Little Mahmoud was the cutest
Egypt is looking so good. I can't believe you had that place all to yourselves. So insane. Loving this series you guys! - Trevor
The colours in the tombs amazes me! It's really neat that it has lasted for so many hundreds of years.
Wow great to get the whole temple just for yourself! Totally worth it to wake up early to explore new places! Nice video guys!
These are my favourite vlogs! I love Egypt!! Good job!!
This is probably one of my favorite videos you guys have done so far.
Great vlog guys. How annoying to forget the other lenses, we do this so often and its super frustrating. Still you got great footage. 🙏
6years ago me and my family went to cairo for 2 weeks and then luxor 1 week and then ended the trip in Hurghada! such a cool trip:D
Recently came across your vlogs. I'd have to say, I love it. I love the editing, the content, you guys' personality. I feel like I'm watching a netflix show. haha. Best part is the length, it's just perfect! I'm happy for you both for being able to travel like such!
How awesome to have it to yourself! Makes filming easier
this is bringing back so many awesome memories from when I was in Cairo, Luxor, and Aswan!
Wow Luxor is such an interesting place to learn more about historic facts, and that little boy was so nice to guide you to the ferry!
your travel vlogs bring me so much joy and amazement! Thanks!!! Safe travels kids.
Woo! I've always wanted to go to Egypt, and you're taking me there :)
Great blog guys, glad you're back
So glad you guys are uploading again!!! Cannot wait to visit Egypt next year!!
So are we :) Have fun!
great that you guys are back. Your content is always great and to see you both is always uplifting. great work ( holiday, work//)
So happy to have you guys back!!
You guys have taking me places I only dreamed of seeing thank you for sharing
The privilege of travelling to Egypt on low tourism period is that you get to experience everything all for yourself but the other side is that there are lots of people whose sole income relies on tourists so to those people you were like a very late and very needed pay day for them so you can understand why everyone is trying to offer you some service or sell you something.
Love your channel!! Love the energy and the editing is amazing! I travel the world for work myself and you guys give me more and more to see.
aww! The little boy was so cute!!
From Algeria 🇩🇿 I Egypt is my next direction inshallah 🇪🇬 💕💕
Did u come then ?
You just know Kara would make the best mother and the coolest aunt.
I love Kara’s running entrance! (Nate’s all “no running ma’am..”) 😆🏃🏻♀️
The nefferttiti hotel you stayed in is just one of the best. Aladdin owns the place and has run that place from many many many years very popular with backpackers and the egyptians and the best value... Aladdin and his staff have been looking after tourists for years and will not rip you off. Best views also from roof . And pizzas!!!!
Nice to have u guys back, missed your uploads.
I love this week... back to back travel vlogs from Kara and Nate - you definitely make up for the time you were off :)
Trying to :D
Thanks, you're nailing it! BTW, you don't need to ;) you are amazing and so true people, keep doing what you do, we will keep following anyway :)
Absolutely breathtaking.
I watch a ton of these type of videos and these guys are the best no bull crap and straight up entertainment
Wow! Getting up early & walking around is totally worth it! How amazing!!! 🤗
Amazing as allways! Love Kara`s outfit!
Valley of the kings is soooooo beautiful! Full of colors inside!
You are so right..we were haggled the most in Egypt. But I do miss the culture and the good food. Great video!!
Soo nice to see your videos before we go ourselves!!!
This video (this series) is so nice, I've watched it a few times before and here I am watching it once again! 👍
Since my 6th grade report on Egypt- i always wanted to go there and see everything/ met people experience not only tourists sights but what the locals do!!! Im so jealous..

I love Egypt !! The people trying to sell you stuff is funny lol
Chieki Frashure you are always welcome anytime to visit ☺️
Egypt is my country
The people “are” funny. Learn how to write first honey then talk about people trying to make a living please...
Awesome as usual!!!! You all are my favorite escape at breaktime! Its a treat what you share... kudos on traveling to places off tourist season or political reasons for decreased tourists.....how lucky you are...blessings
I'm happy we can make your breaks a little better! :)
The way he tries to wake Kara up❤️🔥
YAYYYYYYY...your vlogs are the highlight of my days.

Been waiting so long for this :) ive been to Luxor many times i just love it, seeying pictures of the temples really doesnt do them justice, but when your actually there you still cant believe what your seeying truly incredible.
116degrees yeah i will never forget that heat....ice cold Guava nectar is the only cure...lol....gallons of the stuff xx
I have added Egypt to our list of countries to visit......Love that you got to see some cool stuff
Just finished watching your last two episodes and was about to go to bed...yay another video :)
Wake upto you guys smiling and having a great time. Cant help but smile
❤
Really enjoyed the editing and music sequence. Thank you!
Hardcore weather. I did Egypt in October and the weather was brilliant. Our tour guide was telling us how all the old people that go in summer don't cope and pass out. Lucky you guys are hardened travellers.
What an amazing birthday present!! A new vlog!!! What an amazing place to visit!
Happy birthday Mily!!!❤👏😁
So cool that you guys got to experience it all to yourselves!
Your videos are absolutely incredible, and you guys are the cutest!! We are hoping to go to Egypt either later this year or for my birthday early next year...your videos have really helped with the travel inspo!!! :) We feel more comfortable going on a small group tour across various cities, but when we have time off we will definitely take your advice, especially on street foods! Yum!!
Last shot- Kara and her coffee temptation ❤
Even though we're not early birds either, definitely taking your advice after watching this vlog just to have it all to ourselves also! So incredible! Cheers!
Such a beautiful vlog. Egypt is on my bucket list, I hope one day I am able go!
That place is awesome.
Hi hun u r welcome Egypt Luxor city am tour guide 00201003691748 whats app
I love reading world history and was glad to see the valley of the kings in this video.
I am very amazed with your experience. Hieroglyphics are so complex, once I think I have the slightest understanding how to read them I realize I’m wrong! Lol. I am very jealous of where you were able to go and see! You two are great😩
This video was the best way I could’ve started my day!
Egypt is so awesome and i go often i usually book my tours through Grand Utopia Travel. They take care of everything.
smart country that restores before things has fallen down.
much apprechiated.
