🌅May to July is the best time to visit Egypt. I spent 8 days and 7 nights there, averaging 15,000 yuan per person, and basically explored all of Egypt! Personally, I recommend joining a group tour to avoid being scammed.

Regrets in Egypt: The transfer from Taiwan to Egypt was very over, first I stopped in Malaysia (I was in a good mood because I ate Din Tai Fung at the airport which was cheaper than in Taiwan), then I stopped in the United Arab Emirates (dates are more expensive than in Egypt, prices are high, I just window shopping to see what is on sale at the airport during the transfer), and finally landed in Cairo. This trip was like being a frequent flyer 😂😂😂 Not going to the Abu Simbel Temple and Aswan in the southernmost part is probably the biggest regret of coming to Egypt. If I were to go to Egypt again, I would definitely choose these two tours. It's a pity that I can only visit this country once in my life. I was very moved when I saw the cuneiform writing on the wall of the temple, which reminded me of Jay Chou's "Love in BC". I don't want to take another trip that requires sleeping on the train (the journey from Giza to Luxor requires a train, which takes about 12 hours), because I will vomit. The train berths are very small and not easy to sleep in. They are more crowded than a larger single bed. I have a very deep impression of them. The dinner was terrible. The baby in the suitcase may have been thrown around during the luggage transportation, and the baby burst and attracted real Mickey. Sleeping in a small berth with no toilet and only one faucet without a shower feels like the last choice when you have to escape to a safe place during the war 😅 You can only use the public toilet to wash your face and remove makeup. It can be said that "overcoming difficulties" is probably the most expressive feeling of this train trip. I sought help from the conductor and found that he looked like Brenner in "Murder on the Orient Express" with a high nose. He seemed helpless. Rats are creatures that run around and humans don't like. I was afraid that the train would be late, so I crossed half the world. I hadn't taken a shower for more than two and a half days. I woke up at 6 a.m. and stared quietly at the scenery outside the window of the train. To the north, there are the Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx, while to the south, there is the Valley of the Kings, which complement each other; walking in the Sahara Desert, you can feel the warm sand on your feet without sweating at all, and visit the Bedouin tribe, which is an isolated and primitive tribe; and you can enjoy the excitement of rushing into the sand while listening to Middle Eastern songs in the desert. 📍Egypt, a country whose treasures were divided up by the great powers🇪🇬 #Overseas Travel #100 Ways to Travel #travel #travelholic

Egypt has been popular recently! Prices are cheap and the yen is weak, so it's a hot place to go to✨ And above all, it's a very beautiful country! However, there are many things you need to be careful of in Egypt, so I'll introduce them to you! ① Don't negotiate for taxis It's better to use Uber or Careem! They don't use the meter for negotiating, so be careful because they will definitely add the price at the end! I had a big argument about the price and I was locked in the car until I paid...😂 I think it's best to use tours and reserved taxis as much as possible! Girls in particular should be really careful🥹 ② Don't expect anything to be free❌ This is a common thing in Egypt, but if you get someone to take your camera without your permission, take a picture of you, charge you, or do anything, you should be careful because it will cost you money! Even if they say it's free, you will end up being charged! The magic words in times like this are, "I'll call tourist police." This will calm them down for the time being☝️ ③ Double pricing is terrible, so be careful Tours are a different story, but if a taxi driver or someone like you recommends a place and the Egyptian pays, it will be cheaper, so if you pay it back later, you're completely black😂 This is a top pattern of cutting out the middle + double price menu → high charge! Be suspicious of people who pay on your behalf! ④ If you have any questions, ask the hotel staff Even if you go to the station to buy a ticket, there are a lot of people who will kindly lie and say things like, "The trains have stopped running, so the only way is to take a taxi!"... So don't ask on the street, but rely on the front desk🥹 I've written a lot, but there are a lot of good people and it's a wonderful country! When you're in Japan, you tend to get dazed by peace, but when you go to Egypt, I hope you'll raise your level of vigilance more than usual and enjoy yourself✨ #Overseas Travel Strategy #Egypt

1. Recommended attractions: Pyramids: The pyramids have stood the test of time and remain magnificent. They are one of the Seven Wonders of the World and the most mature representative of ancient Egyptian pyramids. Luxor Temple: There are many temples in Egypt, and we visited more than one, but I think Luxor Temple is the best! The carvings on the dome, walls, and stone pillars are well-preserved and exquisite! Desert starry sky: In Siwa, watching the stars and sunset in the desert is a romantic experience. You can choose to go on the first evening, so you have more flexibility on the second day. Sahara Desert: We didn't have time to see the sunset and starry sky in the desert. Our guide said he would take us to some niche places. Near the footprint site, we saw a wild rabbit. We were so excited that we shouted and forgot to take a photo. - 2. FAQs: 1. Egyptian pound exchange rate: I left Egypt on April 15, and the exchange rate was 1:6.5. There is no black market exchange rate now! 2. Tickets: Only Visa cards are accepted. If you don't have one, try to find a Chinese person to help! Don't ask locals to avoid unnecessary trouble! 3. Language: The built-in Apple translator is very useful! Google Translate is also an option. 4. Safety: I personally feel quite safe. Female travelers are advised to find a companion. After all, there are good and bad people everywhere. It's always good to be cautious. - 3. Tips for avoiding scams: ✅ If you don't plan to buy anything from the people selling souvenirs in scenic areas, don't respond to them or pay attention to them. These people are very persistent and hard to get rid of. ✅ There are many traps when riding camels at the pyramids. The price you agreed on may be increased halfway through or the other party may change their mind. They are very likely to go back on their word, so it's best to find a reliable person to negotiate the price. ✅ Some people will approach tourists in the name of helping them, being very enthusiastic and even speaking a few words of Chinese. Don't trust them. ✅ Never act alone, as many scammers will take advantage of the opportunity. Dress conservatively. Traveling in a group can greatly reduce the risk. ✅ Hotels in Egypt are not as good as those in China. They may be rated five stars, but the facilities are old and the towels and tissues are rough. Be sure to bring your own. ✅ Hotels in Egypt are not as good as those in China, but the five-star hotels we stayed in on our group tour were all good. Especially in Cairo, we stayed next to the pyramids. We could take photos with the pyramids at breakfast without the crowds. The location was great! The hotel also had a large garden, which I really liked.

Exploring Egypt My recent journey through Egypt was nothing short of extraordinary. Each destination offered a unique glimpse into the country’s rich history, vibrant culture, and stunning landscapes. Cairo Cairo is a bustling metropolis, a blend of ancient and modern. The highlight was visiting the Egyptian Museum, home to an incredible collection of artifacts, including treasures from Tutankhamun's tomb. The energy of the city was palpable, especially in areas like Khan El Khalili bazaar, where I enjoyed bargaining for souvenirs and savoring local delicacies. Giza Pyramids Visiting the Giza Pyramids was a dream come true. Standing before the Great Pyramid and the Sphinx was awe-inspiring. I opted for a guided tour, which provided fascinating insights into the history and construction of these wonders. Watching the sunset over the pyramids was an unforgettable experience. Luxor Luxor, often referred to as the world’s greatest open-air museum, did not disappoint. Karnak Temple was breathtaking with its towering columns and intricate carvings. The Valley of the Kings was equally impressive; exploring the tombs of ancient pharaohs felt like stepping back in time. The sheer scale and artistry of these sites were astounding. Abu Simbel A trip to Abu Simbel is a must. The colossal statues of Ramses II at the entrance to the temple were magnificent. The intricate carvings inside tell stories of ancient battles and divine encounters. The journey there, whether by car or plane, is well worth it for such a remarkable sight. Hurghada After the historical sites, I found relaxation in Hurghada. The beaches were pristine, and I enjoyed snorkeling in the vibrant Red Sea. The underwater life was spectacular, with colorful corals and diverse marine species. It was the perfect way to unwind after days of exploring. Alexandria My trip concluded in Alexandria, a city steeped in history and Mediterranean charm. Visiting the Bibliotheca Alexandrina was a highlight, showcasing the city’s literary legacy. The Catacombs of Kom el Shoqafa provided a fascinating glimpse into ancient burial practices. Strolling along the Corniche was a lovely way to soak in the coastal atmosphere. Conclusion Overall, Egypt captivated me with its blend of history, culture, and natural beauty. From the iconic pyramids to the tranquil beaches, each location offered a distinct experience. I left with a deeper appreciation for Egypt’s rich heritage and a desire to return. If you’re considering a trip, be prepared for a journey filled with wonder and adventure! #gowithtrip #cairo #gizapyramid #egypt #luxor

I could not make this trip without the deal I got by booking through #Trip.com. It was literally a bargain! #Egypt is known to be a very tourist place, and as such it can be quite expensive. But thanks to Trip.com I bought my tickets from London to Egypt (with return) and two domestic flights (from Cairo to Hurghada and From Aswan to Cairo) for less than £200 per person. So, what are you waiting for? This is the sign to go and book your next ticket to this amazing country through your Trip.com app.

The Old Kingdom was the heyday of Egyptian pyramid construction. Cairo can be divided into three pyramid areas from south to north, namely the Bent Pyramid and the Red Pyramid in Dahsur, the Step Pyramid in Saqqara, and the most well-known Pyramids of Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure in Giza. You can visit the interior of the pyramid. You need to squat to enter. There is a long way to go and you can't stand up and walk straight. You need to have a certain amount of physical strength. There is no special decoration inside. Some of them have a strong smell of ammonia. It is recommended to pick one to go in and experience it~ In addition to the pyramids, there are also some temple ruins next to the pyramid area that you can visit. You can experience riding a camel and taking photos around the scenic area. After negotiating the price, try to record the video to avoid being defrauded. #Cairo #100 Ways to Travel #Giza #Pyramids #Ruins

The most stunning churches are hidden in the dirtiest places. The cave churches in Cairo, Egypt are quite unique. They are completely located inside a huge rocky hill. Compared with the civilization of ancient Egypt and the current Islam, Christianity has a relatively weak position in Egyptian culture. This church was built during the period when ancient Rome ruled Egypt. It is evident that it has been preserved to this day. To get here, you have to go through the world's largest garbage city. After witnessing how hard the people at the bottom of society struggle for their livelihoods, and then seeing this fantastic design, the shock is so great. Looking out of the cave from the bottom of the church, the densely packed seats and the blue sky #church

The obelisk is a masterpiece of ancient Egypt and the most distinctive symbol of ancient Egyptian civilization besides the pyramids. The obelisk is in the shape of a pointed square column, gradually shrinking from bottom to top, and its top is shaped like the tip of a pyramid. There are 29 obelisks originating from ancient Egypt in the world, of which 9 are currently preserved in Egypt. Carving and erecting an obelisk was an arduous undertaking. I was deeply shocked when I witnessed it with my own eyes in Egypt.

The Great Pyramid, the only Wonder that still exists, stood as the world’s tallest human-made structure for nearly 4,000 years. Erected around 2560 B.C.E. on the west bank of the Nile River, the Great Pyramid served as the tomb of the fourth-century pharaoh Khufu (Cheops). It is the largest of the three Pyramids at Giza. The proportions of the Pyramid are colossal—even for the modern era. The original height from the base to the peak was around 147 meters (482 feet)—though time has worn away the height to around 138 meters (451 feet). The length of each side at the base averages around 230 meters (756 feet). Over its 20-year construction period, around 2.3 million stone blocks were crafted to create this 5.22-million-metric-ton (5.75-million-ton) monolith.

The temples and after all these years they still look new, how they preserve it is just wonderful. Treat yourself and go explore Egypt.

The Pyramids are one of the seven wonders of the world. There are various theories about how it was built, one of which is that aliens helped build it. I personally believe in this theory, so I put it on my must-visit list. After all, it was built by aliens, so I have to come and visit it, haha

My journey to Egypt last year is my most successful accomplishment thus far. Not only was it a dream come true as my first trip to Africa, but it was also a major healing moment, as it provided some closure for a very traumatic chapter of my life. It was a very powerful, soul-cleansing, and healing experience. Ever since my twin brother passed, I felt the desire to do something special with his ashes in honor of his life. So last year for our birthday, I took some of his remains to Egypt with me and spread them around the Valley of the Kings, so he can rest amongst the ancient Kings and Pharaohs, because in my mind that's where he belonged. My brother's death never made sense to me. It left a void in my life and I always questioned the purpose of it all. This was my way of adding my own meaning and purpose to his life, and that was one of the greatest feelings in the world. #tripblazers #urbanexplorer #awesomepic

Spread over 480,00 square meters of land just a few miles south of the Pyramid of Giza and considered to be one of the top-rated Egypt places to visit. King Tutankhamun Museum is one of the most intricate accounts of the Ancient Egyptian reign of Pharaohs. The archeologists have also restored the throne of the king and kept it at the conservation center of the museum since August 2019. King Tut Museum in Genena City is the most important sightseeing in South Sinai. It’s collecting one To one copied pieces of King Tut exhibits from Egyptian Museum.
