    Great watching your video. We were there in 2012 I think it was, right at the beginning of the “troubles”. We could hear gun fire at night from the hotel in Cario but, because of the uprising and it being in February, there was no one visiting. At the light show at the pyramids, there were 6 people. That’s it, 6, it holds around 2000. At the pyramids themselves not a soul in our photos. We had 4 couples on our ship, Sunboat IV. We did have armed security with us everywhere and a 50cal machine gun at the back of the boat for the whole cruise, kind of interesting. Overall though, one of the most amazing trips we have ever been on, so thanks for the vid, brought back some fantastic memories.

    Incredible video as always. How did you feel safety wise? I took all this off my bucket list when there were terrorist incidents against tourists in Egypt.

      We sailed with Uniworld but it will depend on what you want. We enjoyed the land sections of our cruise so that was a deciding factor too. As long as you stick to one of the well known cruise lines and they offer everything you want to do then you should be ok 👍

    Really beautiful filming! I will say though, almost all of your information on Hatshepsut was incorrect according to most egyptologists. There are a least a handful more female Pharaohs (one of whom was very likely Nefertiti) and Hatshepsut was not trying to convince anyone she was a man, wearing a false beard was a sign of the position of pharaoh. And while you say peace and prosperity, I know you’re likely saying that in regards to the people of Egypt, but it was a misogynistic view for quite some time that she had never led a military campaign because she was a woman (which is simply not true, she did, quite successfully). Anyways, I loved the video just wanted to let you know!

    • @visitwithus
      @visitwithus  Рік тому

      Thank you for the clarification. There was so much information to digest during this incredible trip, it was always going to be likely that we’d get some of it wrong. Although I will stand my ground a little and say that the Hapshepsut narrative was paraphrased from our excellent and knowledgable guide, and not being an expert, may have got some of the detail wrong ‘lost in translation’ so to speak. 🙂
