2023 Egypt family travel vlog – Cairo, Aswan, Abu Simbel and Luxor


We traveled to Egypt over the Christmas holiday period in 2022/2023. Though our time was brief, we made the most of it by exploring the Nile river valley, starting in Cairo where we saw Islamic Cairo, Coptic Cairo, and the pyramids of Giza and Saqqara. We flew down to Aswan where we stayed in a Nubian village and toured Abu Simbel before we…

  1. Fantastic video, great job! Headed there this week on a Nile River Cruise. In your opinion with all the sightseeing you did if you had to take a crazy early flight to Abu Simbel is it worth it or are there many other amazing things to see and I can feel no guilt and sleep in and relax?!!!

  2. Im in Egypt now n I wish Egyptians know a little bit of English…this has made communication breakdown for low budget travellers
    Attractions are really great to visit n food is delicious.I will definitely come back again.
    Beware of scammers..they are everywhere
    Sad to see young street beggars ….they should be studying .Decided not to give them money as it would encourage them to become beggars….instead,I offered food to them.

    OMG ! This is one nation with very good looking people…babies are like dolls.

    People are friendly

    Night life is fantastic..shops are open till the wee hours.

    Egypt is land of scrumptious food n delicious juices ,ice- creams etc….one can never go hungry ..

  3. Your voice is phenomenal and made for narration. Velvety and soothing. Very nice vlog. You must be related to Thomas Cook… haha… thanks… Alan & George from MunnTreeAll (Montreal)

  4. Thanks for sharing. I visited in 2016 and loved it. Though the traffic in Cairo was beyond chaotic and no one seemed to follow the lanes or traffic signs. But totally safe and fun experience and would love to visit again

  5. Great video. Very immersive and real. But one question. Why is ok to wear Lululemons in a generally conservatively dressed society just because it's a tourist site. Is France the only country people care to try to dress for?

  6. Thank you for creating this enjoyable and informative vlog. Great info for my upcoming trip (hopefully the visa will be granted without issues 🤞).
    I may have missed it but what’s the name of your Cairo hotel? The view looks fantastic.

  7. I’m only coming across your channel today and have subscribed! Thank you for taking me along to a country I dream of visiting someday. Loved your comment…” templed-out” at the end of your volg. It gave me a chuckle 😉 It reminded me of being “ cathedraled-out” while visiting Europe years ago. I hope you get to enjoy your holidays …considering you see it through the lens of your camera while recording! Thank you. Safe travels 😉 🇨🇦

  8. Carrie, this was very helpful for my family to plan the same trip. We are going in January 2024. Do you happen to have the contact information for Mustafa? Keep up the great work. My wife and I are planning other family trips based on your videos. Thank you, again!

  9. اقذر الدول والشعوب عمليات نصب واحتيال وقذاره في الشوارع والاماكن
    لن اذهب اليها ابدا 🚮🗑️

  10. Bad place ro visit, they do not leave you alone, begging at every step, I still remember the young lady tourist that was murdered by a taxi driver, absolute scum country.

  11. Thank you Carrie for putting this vlog together. So much thoughts, time and effort must have gone into it as it's one of THE MOST informative, beautifully-stitched and well-narrated travel logs on Egypt we've watched! It's esp. nice to finally have a glimpse of you at the end of the vlog 🙂 We're bringing our kids (9yo and 15yo) to Egypt next month (Winter, Dec'23) and your vlog has given our family lots of insights and things to look forward to! Keep travelling and inspiring others around the globe. XOXO, Angie & David from Singapore

  12. Hello, 🐦🐦🐦🐞🐞🐞🌻🌻🌻🦩🦩🦩May I share an Old Testament Verse with you from Daniel 7:14 "And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a Kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should SERVE Him; his dominion is an Everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom shall not pass away, and His Kingdom that which shall not be destroyed." Also, can I share Isaiah 53:5 " But HE was WOUNDED For our TRANSGRESSIONS, he was BRUISED for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon Him, and with His STRIPES we are HEALED."

    God the Father loves you so much that He sent Holy Sinless Jesus (His Holy Son) to earth to be born of a virgin.Then, to grow up and die on a cross for our sins. He was in the tomb for 3 days, then Father God raised Holy and Sinless Jesus Christ (Y'shua) to Life! He appeared to people and went back to Heaven. We must receive Sinless Jesus sincerely to be God's child(John 1:12).After we get saved by grace through faith in Christ, if we truly love the Lord Jesus Christ, then we will obey Jesus(John 14:15). Mark 1:15 "And saying, the time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: Repent ye, and believe the gospel." Jesus said in John 14:15 "If you love Me, keep My commandments. "There's a real hell. It says in Revelation 21:8 "But for the cowardly, & unbelieving, and abominable, and murderers, & immoral persons sorcerers & idolaters & all liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire & brimstone…" Please sincerely receive Holy Jesus and put your true faith and trust in Him today and please repent. Will you have a Real encounter with Holy Lord Jesus (Y'shua is His Hebrew Name) and stay in a Genuine relationship with Him daily please?
