Вставка
- Опубліковано 24 лис 2024
- Egypt is a country located in North Africa and is famous for its ancient civilization and iconic landmarks such as the pyramids and the Sphinx. The country has a rich history that dates back thousands of years, with the ancient Egyptian civilization leaving behind a legacy of impressive architectural achievements, intricate artwork, and a complex religious and cultural belief system. The Nile River, which runs through Egypt, has played a crucial role in the country's development, providing fertile land for agriculture and serving as a vital transportation route.
In this series, we will travel to Hurghada, Luxor, and Cairo. Welcome to the new series in Egypt! 🇪🇬

My husband is Egyptian and ive been many time to these markets. I just ignore everyone and dont make eye contact or talk with anyone until i like something. It's the easiest way to get through.
das heißt also, Ihr Mann hat Sie betrogen? 🤭
Sorry for your teribble life with an egyptian..
@@CloudArchitectDEUTSCHLAND so we call it loses in 1945 😘
@@mrvn7.5 Wen interessiert das Jahr 1945, heute haben wir die drittgrößte Volkswirtschaft der Welt (laut Economic Times) 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Just the other day I was in Aswan Market with a local friend shopping for himself and he got the Galabiya (gown) for 600 EGP. I say you got a very good deal for 500 EGP.
I really like how you reward honesty and do it very subtly, too.
It’s not easy to bargain in Egypt, but you did a fantastic job bargaining with them today😂You look awesome in that scarf😍
Fellow Egyptian here, and I totally felt the exhaustion you’re going through in this video. You’re not alone!
Fix your country bruh🤦🏽♂️🤣
@@DaFonz808Fym fix his country? What country you from?
It's terrible to have the feeling that you are always being scammed
Sad but tru
Pity puts people off it’s terrible
I could not put up with all the pushy selling
@@Faramanch BS, come to Egypt, you're always welcome, and it's chill.

Every topic you show us is just a unique experience.
Davud is a very humble and generous yotuber that I have followed
I met you in the hotel, I work in the kitchen. usual scammer 😂
😂😂
😂😂😂
I would of said , SO ,and walked away
I got scammed at airport and shop😮😢
That's a worldwide scam man 🤣
OMG 😮 you're so patient😂
Your travel documents your travel logs are wonderful. They’re so informative thank you.
You are such a kind nice person.. keep up the amazing work ❤
What a wonderful coverage ! Keep up the great work.
You are such a wonderful storyteller. I just love your UA-cam .
Davud, you deserve SriLankan citizenship too! Your eyes light up and your voice changes whenever you encounter anything Sri lankan😂
You are a very respectful and kind person but you have to be strict with them or ignore them and don't talk to them, they are opportunistic, exploitative and annoying. Yes they have families to feed but their way is very bad, and as an Egyptian I hate this, you just have to stop being generous with them, they don't deserve this respectful treatment, they all just want to scam you and take advantage of you. Damn them they have ruined tourism with their stupid behavior
I’ve seen the worse at Giza Plateau!! Goshhh
Stupid government helps in this,
Most of them have criminal cases and are not qualified to deal with Egyptians or tourists
I live 15 kilometers from the pyramids, and I have never gone there once because of these fraudulent thugs, whom the stupid government does not prevent from being there
These are ex-convict thugs, used by the government in acts of thuggery
@@CarbossaLafayette
Dude don't be over
*WHY I'm never returning to Egypt*
_in my country scammers get locked up_
after 2days of saying *NO,NO,NO,NO,NO,NO,NO,NO*
I spent my last 12 days in Egypt _freediving_
Bargaining seems to be necessary in the country, because they overcharge the tourists. This flàw has to be taken care of. Thanks Davud, Your Egyptian series is getting more interesting with each passing day
Then one must pay attention in the countries having fixed prices. No bargains there.
bargaining is part of the local culture it's not just the tourist even locals bargain and vendors kind of expect you to .
It seems that Egypt is the worst experience for a tourist.😢😢😮
After India.
Yes, do not go to Egypt. I am Egyptian and I am telling you this. There are many much better places that you can go to. South America or Europe is better for you and cheaper.
Is It important to always mention your father? @@rsn7847
@@rsn7847
Always mention your daddy
We in Egypt appeal to the government to keep former prisoners away from businesses that involve tourism, but no one responds.
This seems intentional, because even in markets designated for tourists, there are sellers and criminal drivers - Workers whose actions are strange
This is not normal in Egypt in general
They are really annoying
Great video as always Davud! It looks so stressful trying to do something so simple as walking/exploring and shopping and have everyone rush you. I would say the man who does not rush at you, but waits for you to approach, is likely the more deserving of your custom.
Be careful scammers are every where 😮 now you know the tourism culture, thank you for the recognising Sri Lankan identity in every where you go🙏🇱🇰 nice street vendors, thank you for helping them. beautiful Egyptian heritage
Sending love from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰❤️🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰❤❤
ان لم تتدخل الدولة لوقف هؤلاء عن ازعاج السياح بهذه الطريقة البذيئة وان لا يتعرضون للسائح لاي كلمه الا اذا سئله السائح ويرد على قدر السؤال . لان مايقومون به اسوء شيئ ينفر السواح من القدوم لمثل هذه الأماكن وبجهلهم وغبائهم من ياتي مره لن يعود ومن يري مثل هذه الفيديوهات لن ياتي لمثل هذه الأماكن نهائيا
Maalesef
@@timurhan7425I will not go because of this
خليها تخرب عليهم يارب مايجلهم سياح عشان ينبسطوا كل بائع لازم يحكي قصة حياته الصعايده هما الا مدمرين السياحه في مصر
Wish your trip to egypt good and safe. I would tell you something I'm Egyptian, and I'm really like your videos.
GREAT vlog, always happy to watch your video.Really Egypt is awesome.
Loved it . I have to ask pls do quick zooms on the jewelry !! Always hard to see in market videos but
Bro i can feel that you are very short tempered person. But you are trying the best to be humble and nice. You expect the same from others too. very relatable
Im not sure that he's all that short tempered, feels like he's just tired of the constant hustling. It's basically his full time job to deal with it, at some point enough is enough xD
I think he's very calm and even-tempered in spite of what he's experiencing.
Trust me,as a short tempered person myself I would have lost it so many times even if I was a public person like him,a short tempered person couldn’t even travel in Egypt without having few incidents with locals.
Davud is a nice guy
No way your wrong I've been following Davud for a long time he is not one bit short tempered he is a gentleman
Definitely the red scarf. You look good!!
The white one looked like a haji in mecca lol
You managed the sellers really well! It’s always like this in Egypt, even in nontouristic areas. As an Egyptian myself I often feel dizzy and anxious when I visit bazaars. I usually step outside for breaks because I can't handle the noise and the large crowds. You did very well..
I really respect your composure.👍
The old guy changing his accent I would purchase from him just for effort lol
This is stimuli overload 😢😅
Hello my bro.❤❤.been a while..one thing I must say with all ur tourism you are becoming one of a kind ...esp with patience and tolerance apart from ur charitable heart...thanks esp to places like Sri Lanka and Egypt in grooming you to the limits 😮😅😂😂❤❤❤God continue to orchestrate ur followers in Blessing u as you bless all Gods children irrespective of colour ethnicity or religion ❤❤❤❤
Also the best coffee you can get is yemeni coffee as its also the place it originated from
I love your vlogs,Davud.
Hey, but it looks very stressful with the scammers in Egypt 😮.
I would love to tour Egypt, but......
حضرتك سافروا بلوجر مصريين ل تركيا ولاقوا هناك محتالين بردوا على فكرة
They half the price when you start to walk away.
a good bargaining tactic, approved
You look good nice glasses .. have a good trip..SO many ads not good 😢
That horse is extremely emancipated.
I don’t understand how you travel vloggers can continue riding on mistreated animals just for the sake of content.
I’d never give a cent to someone who can’t even properly care for the animal that’s bringing in their income.
We like your videos. We wish you enjoy your stay in Egypt and thank you.
Walk away from them Scamming shops. They can never give honest price! Horrible People
U want Egyptian brize?…in dalla or bound?😂😂😂😂
They love the dollar or British pound 😂
@@equilibriumentertainment6249*DALLA(dollar)& BOUND(pound) U AKBAR✊🏿*
That's why I advise you not to watch the video, or go there. You can choose better places in the world that are cheaper and more suitable for you.
These do not represent Egypt or the place
Stay away from tourist places in Egypt and you will be fine.
The tourist areas are literally a den of ex-convicts and drug dealers
@@Faramanch
Nic your videos are good
Hi 👋 davud don't let's them scamme you bro.. ❤❤❤❤❤❤ from 🇩🇿 🇩🇿 🇩🇿
I like the egyptian scurves.. Looking good on you. ❤watching from India
Bravo 👏 Davud 👀👌 find the way nicely shopping is hard to choose
Your being a leader today . Don't want to play games today ❤️🌹❤️
I got gift from alexandria Egypt a mug for coffee /tea with cat painting,, its very good quality, even much more better than branded mug , it can keep tea/coffee warm so much longer, the best one mug that I ever know. Also egyption cotton is really best quality. I have bed linen also towel , so soft and comfortable , i have also papyrus painting and jewellery box with blue stone . These are a good souvenir to bring home .
I like your video, but its so annoying and headache to see these Egyptian , why its hard to say fix price , why so much playing with price..
*when an Egyptian scavenger just moves his lips, he’s scamming or lying…or probably both 😂😂*
Hi Davud...I'm obsessed with you I'm watching all your videos
That was soooo funny. The guy in blue must have communicated with the other guy on the horse that's how he knew you came from the hotel and ran towards you. It was soooo funny he pointed and you turned and walked away😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭😭
Duad you are very kind and generous i go egypt every year the only thing that gets annoying are the sellers harassment it's crazy other then that love egypt and your videos ❤
The second kid looks like Mustafa from traveling with Chris's video that dude's a legend
❤❤❤😊 good videos in souk luxor
One thing you can think about...if the economy is not going down in Egypt, you can see how they will deal with you..we are (The Egyptian people) are generous..but it's hard now , so, every body wants or searching for the money...
Pls dont scam him😢
Is that your justification to scam everyone
Oh god! This is so comic, for a long time I was looking for something to laugh, however this was the best. Everyone is pulling you and asking for money, people, police etc…. I’m glad the camels didn’t ask for money. " I met you in the hotel “ , you nearly fell for it
hiii bro im regular subcriber always watching your vlog every vlog is excelent 🎉❤
You're improving little by little, next time we hope to see you taking their place and hiring them a horse 🤣
Amezing video love you brother
اتمنى ان تفتح قناة ناطقة باللغة العربية تعيد فيها نشر المحتويات على هذه القناة ولكن مدبلجة
Very beautiful shops.
Égypte Marketplace is so funny 😅😅😅
Nice brother you never forget Sri Lanka nice your video take care. God bless you.
I would last 15 minutes there!
i like that u give people lots of tip
The ONLY HANDCRAFT THAT WENT INTO THAT WAS THE POURING THE LIQUID INTO THE MOULD
Wonderful video my friend
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🥰👍
Good experience ❤
Dear Davud , I will give you a wise drection , pay attention . Only speak to the salesmen in a language they cannot comprehend . My speciality is Icelandic …. it’s a long story , but I do speak and understand that language . Your language will
baffle them too … don’t Ever use English , it will drive nuts instead of vice versa . Once in Izmir ..Turkey … I had 3 hustlers trying desperately to go to tghere Rug Salon . English , French , German …. I spoke Icelandic . Eventually one of them said to me .. I know you speak English but I told them “ You will catch a bird with your mouth before you sell him a rug “ … Do It Davud !
They envy the western countries for the value of their currency it's a wrong attitude in 3rd world countries that's why they remain underdeveloped
Ignore them and keep heading to where u want to be 😢😅
30:10 Finally a genuine honest person.
How they speak English so good ?
As much as I would love to go to Egypt, I will never go. Because they are overly pushy on making a sale. You might want to count how many times You say, "No, no thank You". This would definitely make it a bad experience for me.
Too much bantering.
It's just a cultural difference. Your personality doesnt fit a world traveler. You can just travel in US and EU for the rest of ur life lol
I saw a vlog which explained that most of these people congregate in tourist spots. Outside those areas, normal egyptians don't bother u like that.
@@vosk6481 That's why when I travel different countries, I only go where the locals go. It's rear for me to go to any tourist trap. Because I've been taxed because of my skin colour. So I keep away from those places.
@@vosk6481u clearly never went to this disgusting filthy 3rd world shythole bro.
I’ve been there once and thank god i managed to escape after 5 days.
It’s just impossible to take one or two steps without someone approaching u to scam, beg, tout, pickpocket and harass u.
U will never find just one minute of peace.
Horse and carriage scammers everywhere, EVERYWHERE!!
After u get rid one of them immediately one minute after the second one comets harass and follow u for a half hour.
If it happens u accidentally make eye contact with one of them ur lost….he will never leave u till u give him a dollar.
It starts directly at the airport, where the authorities start begging and demanding baksheesh (tips).
Than the taxi nightmare starts..
U will be harassed, scammed, touted, begged, pickpocketed and perverted from the moment u set foot in Egypt till you enter the plane back home…even in the plane the staff will start scamming and begging you for tips.
@@vosk6481insallah oyledir ama Ben hic denk gelmedim
dear davud , wallahe you make me laughing a lot when you was negotiate when buy gelabiea bravo

You are the Don of traveling Davud, been following you already for 2 years now and haven't been watching to much of your videos and your popping in my feed again luckily. Real travel content from a sober man.
the guy wearing a blue dress 5:56 was running toward you loool watch your back bro
Hi. I m watching now
This could turn into a video game 😂, nice story 😅
When they drag you in inside the store you know it’s a wrap
They are so obtrusive. and clingy, yet never grateful no matter how much you tip them. I couldn't put up with it neither for a day.
I thank god for internet being invented ,imagine years ago before internet people going to that country not knowing that they will end up in Scamland 😂thanks to the internet we wont end up sorrounded by human and animal filth in India or being scammed in Egypt 😂😂😂😂
They are ungrateful and clingy
exactly my observation and I'm Egyptian! I watched all of his videos people don't even express their appreciation for his tip!! it's so fuc*ed up
@@itsdoctorahmed as a muslim, i feel embarresed our muslim brothers portaying Egypt as a lying, cunning and not honest muslims
Shop owner: "Think about the big one"... Davud: "Alright I will think, I will not sleep the night" 🤣🤣🤣
I will be in Luxor soon. insha'Allah I need those galabeyas. Do they got 100 precent cotton? How is the quality? Ps great videos, Thanks a lot.
Have you visited Cambodia🇰🇭 yet? You should visit that country. That's where Angkor Wat temple is locating. Let me know if you are interested and need info.
❤❤❤ from 🇱🇰 🇱🇰 🇱🇰 sri lanka . happy journey
Wow they just won't leave you alone in peace. 😅
That horse guy speaks good English
I enjoy the market
I always say in these places you have one chance to give me the best and fair price and will walk away regardless of you magically giving me a discount
❤❤❤
34:25 he's basically telling you that the bottom shelves are from west bank and luxor egypt
No, he means the west bank of Luxor "Qurna"
@@shahindamursi7010 oh wow i didnt know the west bank over there was inhabited thank you for correcting me
Random, I noticed you passed quite a few Chinese in the last 3 vlogs you did in Egypt.
