That is so sad to hear you were rob by Egypt Customs, I'm sure they do it cause lenses and camera are expensive, and I know many Customs people are jerk 😒
I'm Egyptian and my wife is American, and I apologize to you, and I apologize to Ruby, Not all Egyptians are like this. we are good people and we love you so much and we beg your forgiveness, I'll be careful after that to watch every episode of your adventures,
FROM CAIRO WITH LOVE ♥️😘
But why are u apologizing? U aren’t the one who did that, the corrupt Egyptian government is the reason things like this happen, they treat everyone with disrespect.
@@torilan2672 Let me tell you why I'm apologizing for them, First of all, I'm Egyptian, and that hurts me too, especially when my American teacher and her family visited me in the summer of 2019, who was teaching me the English language I speak with you now, and the Same problem is happened with her, In fact, they were going to take the drone and the GOPRO of her daughter, But luckily I was in front of the arrival hall waiting for them, an I reback them again, and I apologized also because not everyone believe that all Egyptian are like that, from Cairo with love and respect and gratitude, thank you😊
Any civilization in the world is based on the principles of respect for the country, the place, the existing people, and the surrounding security assumptions In the place, and whoever violates this is considered, regardless of his nationality, a reactionary person, regardless of the different points of view. The security must do its job And this person's purpose is known from the video You Americans, keep you in the affairs of your country, it is enough that many countries have been lost because of you
as an Egyptian guy lives in Cairo i give you from all the people in Egypt our apologize and i can't express for you how sad is i'm for what happened to you hope you accept our apologize and hope you a great new year.

I am headed to Egypt very soon. So you mentioned that they took your lenses and go pro. Were they telephoto lenses specifically? I am trying not to bring anything that will be seized at customs. Any tips about what is most likely to get taken?
Just DO NOT vlog in the airport and you' ll have no problems.
As an Egyptian girl i want to say that you are truly saying the truth
We are sorry for what you have been through we are praying that it get better♥️
I went to Egypt two weeks ago. I had Saqqara to myself and little people around Giza. There were other travelers there going up through Africa, many had quit their jobs and were travelling, all said it was smart to travel in this timeframe.
Yep you re smart it’s cheaper and less crowded
Thanks for sharing these beautiful scenes. Living in Minnesota where we have sub-freezing temps for the most part, i feel kind of jealous. I am sorry for the difficulties you face, but these do not apply to most travelers. The main reason that you faced this is likely that you had advanced cameras and were not a licensed reporter. They are particularly sensitive with any kind of undercover reporters. So that clearly does not apply to most travelers. I have grown up in Egypt, but lived in the US for the past 6 years and can say with no doubt that i feel safer in Cairo than most cities I have lived in in the US. Egypt has so many amazing sites to visit, so I would still recommend it to most tourists but do recommended being cautious and following the rules of the land.
Oh my gosh, I love this comment!
Also, I live in Minnesota-we should get connected! I used to live in Egypt and love meeting anyone with ties to the country.
Feel free to shoot me an email and let’s chat 👍🏼
@@EgyptAdventuresTravel Wow. Small world. Of course will be very happy to connect.
please expand on women's experiences/safety in Egypt
Be respectful of their culture, e.g. don’t wear revealing clothes
what i've read from blogs is that there is a lot of catcalling. it becomes worse when they can tell you're a tourist. Women recommend wearing a long skirt and a shawl to cover your shoulders
@@sironen24 but they will wear their hijab in the western countries and want everyone to respect them although they don't respect other people choices in their own country lol
@@amal8331 well then if your a woman don’t expect to go to this place and wear what you want. On a side note they wear what they want for religious/cultural reasons which they have a right to, as you have a right to not respect it in the US?
@@sironen24 I don't live in the US, but in all European countries, no one has the right to object or disrespect anyone's dress ... So the bottom line is that they have the right to wear their religious clothing in my country and I don't have the right to wear the clothes I want in their country, otherwise I will be harassed. I think this is called hypocrisy :)
Great job as always! Loved the content, the editing and you opening up about all the aspects, the good and the not so good. xox
Amazing video ❤️I apologize in behalf of all Egyptians if you found any difficulties during this trip
11:05 - Who else here didn't know that tourists could go inside the Pyramid? 🙋♀️ That is so cool!
There's nothing inside though, so it's a waste of time and money.
Such a beautiful movie (or cinematic vlog 😃) and you are truly lucky to have had those experiences in Egypt! It is so sad that such a beautiful country has so many problems. As a female traveller, it really puts me off from going there which also means that I might never experience those beautiful pyramids. Such a shame! But really beautiful and super entertaining vlog - as always! 😃

Beautiful story. Interesting to know why would they not let you bring a camera, lenses, etc to the pyramids which is one of the biggest tourist sites in the world?
This was awesome. It seems some of your equipment got seized at the airport, but not all. How did you manage to save some of your equipment? Asking for a friend who plans to travel to Egypt (me).
Amazing video. Where I can find that horse service? Share info please
What is ruby wearing in Cairo? It is recommended to fully cover up while in the city?
Thank god that they just take your camera😓
You are in Imbaba, the north of Giza.
Egyptian photographer here. So sorry about your camera equipment man not to mention all the other inconveniences and the harassment faced by your lady companion (I'm a girl too and I know how bad this can get). The way you get treated on the streets if you have a camera here is honestly so stupid and ignorant, and Egyptian authorities seem to have a problem with camera equipment even when it's not officially outlawed.
I feel for you. Must be so hard to run a business there as a creator :/
Wonderful video! Thanks!
Great story...you know how to keep it interesting and informative. 👣
I'm glad I joined LCA 👍
Thanks Jeff 🙏🏼
You have to pay to buy tickets that let you take pictures.
As an Egyptian I’m really sorry for what you’ve been through, egypt is a beautiful country, I know things may get hard here especially when u are a film maker but trust me it’s worth it, and yeah things will get easier outside of Cairo so I recommend you to visit Luxor and Aswan you’ll have so much fun there.
And for a female solo traveler, it’s better if you get to know a friend who lives in egypt and let them show you around, it’ll be so much easier and safer for you. And avoid walking alone anywhere.
Best of luck :’)
As an Egyptian, i also agree🙌
Even the women are so beautiful there

@@kumral76 come and visit egypt 😃
Great video, thanks for sharing! They probably identified you as someone who shoots films for UA-cam, and they interpreted it as a commercial project. And to some extent it also is. I don't think regular tourists will run into similar issues, but 'content creators' are usually in a grey zone when it comes to applying for visas and permission. And yes, Egypt is a politically sensitive destination, so any hint you are reporting undercover would ring alarm bells. Glad you could make something beautiful anyway though, take care!
These are the Egyptian laws, and any visitor must respect these laws just as we respect the laws of your countries
@@mohumedzakaria4713 Which laws do you mean? I've also seen this happen in other politically sensitive areas it's not uncommon, but this really seems to pertain to reporters or are you saying that everyone who enters as a tourist would have the same issues?

@Amr Atef There is laws against commercial projects/videography and such. it's also a cultural thing. it's probably due to the amount of gear you carried with you. for a normal tourist, they will not run into any of these issues unless you have a drone (Drone will be taken from you at airports)

Egypt is not a nice place for anyone.

*traveler
I do agree with you, Egypt is a wonderful country and as an Egyptian I admit that it has its ups and downs. I hope you have a great time here and safe travels
Hehehehe, strong woman.
Thanks for your feed back.
100 agree! I was there last month
Thank you baby😁😁
Thanks for mentioning all of the issues, Christian! I was legit about to show up in Egypt next month with 3 Lenses and start filming with a shotgun mic next to the pyramids if I hadn't seen this. Still hoping to visit but am definitely re-considering my strategy now. Maybe we should start an LCA google doc of issues creators need to be particularly careful about in different countries
Microphones are on the most problematic things for people to see. I recommend splitting up your lenses into different bags when you arrive. If you just have 1 camera and 1 lens together, you should be fine 😅
try to bring less stuff like that cuz its not good and drones is not allowed too
u need alot of Permits from police to use it and every place u visit u should ask if filming is allowed or not
@@Bin7anafi
You are right. Also, I went to a temple last year, and it clearly stated no video recordings, but pictures were fine.
The issue is that you need alot of permits to film in such places and drones is not allowed at all in Egypt. the Video did not mention that. you can film whatever you want but with the right permits and paperworks. just like any other country you visit has its own set of rules and guidelines everyone should follow and i suspect Christian didn’t follow then properly.
Contact the airport and ask about the current regulations in advance. Email is preferred, this way you would have a written proof, just in case.
Technically you could apply for a permit for your equipment and filming before landing, it’s gonna take ages, but yes there is a system for this. They only take your equipment if you don’t have a permit, even Egyptians require a permit not just tourists.
Yeah apprently that doesn't even matter. ua-cam.com/video/8LzuZrkEY18/v-deo.html
I'm a female solo traveler and I traveled to Egypt with an organized tour. I felt safe and It was one of the best places I've ever visited. Whether you are traveling solo or with a friend/partner, I strongly recommend visiting Egypt with a group tour. They greet you the moment you get off the plane and will guide you wherever you go. They even give you heads up about potential scams around the sites you visit.
Thank you so much❤️❤️hope you one day revisit and complete the adventure
True, but sucks to be on someone else’s schedule. So many tour companies are so rushed and don’t give you the chance to fall in love with the place ☹️
Thank you ,,hope you come back,you are welcome any time.
You're welcome anytime here :) x
What tour would you recommend?
It's so weird seeing another girl in the shots where Katy used to be.
I think his videos became better when he no longer have any girl friends lol.
Yeah it’s weird! I have to say Katy has an amazing personality compared to the new girl 🤭
It was the same feeling when Katy replaced Laura. I agree that his vlogs or IG posts don't need to feature a constant curated arm candy. I mean sure, they'll be part of the published content but not necessarily the main imagery to be used to lure views through thumbnails, etc.
Its travel vlog not dramas, why u guys focusing on girl not the place?

Thanks for your video. I am an Egyptian and I know Cairo can get overwhelming. But as any other place in the world you have to know the country’s rules before visiting that will definitely make your trip easier. I wouldn’t recommend a lot of places that you’ve been to to any of my foreigner friends. There are more touristic places and tour groups that will make any travelers life much easier. There are also a lot of nice restaurants such as 9 pyramid lounge, that are more skilled at dealing with tourists. I always recommend 2 days in Cairo and the rest on Egypt’s beautiful beaches and in Luxor and Aswan. Please do let us know your opinion when you visit them. Also please feel free to reach out for any tips on how to get around better in Cairo if you wish to visit again.

I travelled to Cairo and Luxor with family including my two children October 2019 (before the pandemic). I think your problems clearly arose from the fact that you are professional film makers. I had no problems whatsoever with camera gear (I had a pro 50-140 lens with me and a Fuji mirror less system plus a GoPro). Yes it’s not an easy country to travel in but we had an amazing time including taking a train to Luxor and ubers to the southern pyramids off the beaten track. The most memorable one week holiday we’ve ever had.
Trails & Travel no he probably had more equipments that might need a permit before entering. It’s the country’s system. Any average tourist won’t have that much equipment and will not face any issue. Every country has customs you have to go through. An educated tourist has to know that.
@Trails & Travel professional means making money from something doesn’t it? So they are professionals.
What about drones? Are you allowed to take them with you?
Yeah they dont like big lenses here. size matters ;)
This country is definitely on the bucket list, watching your videos inspires me to continue making my own travel videos!!
Just start mate, did start mine one year ago and the only thing I regret is I waited so long
I had my iPhone taken from my by security guards inside Cairo Airport, just during a layover. It's an unsafe, corrupt country. Not recommended.
I definitely loved your videos about Egypt. I've been there twice as a solo traveler and I can say that as long as you wear "discreet clothing" you will enjoy the trip.
I am Egyptian and I would like to tell you that we are pleased to have you in our country, and we also apologize for any problems or harassment that you have experienced, and we always wish to return and have a better and better experience. Greetings
At 19:02 If a solo female want to visit Egypt she has to take some precautions to be safe. First clothing is the most important thing as it is the thing that give the attraction so any shirt must have no opening in the neck and breast area also any trouser must cover the whole leg and of course shirt must cover the back and the belly wear appropriate clothes. The second thing that you avoid walking alone in very empty or very crowded places and don’t use public transportation and use Uber. Finally you can watch videos for solo females travel to Egypt like Travellight
Thank you for reading
Watched this several times. Im still dreaming of visiting Egypt, thank you for all the precautions.
Just curious if you ever got your equipment back from the authorities or is this now more of an insurance issue?
Been to Cairo and Hurghada March 2019 and I loved it
Where did you stay in both cities

I went to Cairo last year with a friend (both female) and we didn't encounter any issues. Sometimes there were stares, but no one tried to harrass us or anything. We were traveling with a guide tho, but still everything was fine.
Lucky you ehh
Exactly! Female tourists literally wear the most exposing and tiny things in the Red Sea and they don’t face anything not even a stare! I was in the Red Sea 2 days ago and all the tourists were wearing bikini and some would even take off their clothes for a tan. No one hurts tourists in Egypt it’s absolutely safe.
@Badr Elbadrawy harassers are everywhere in the world sir! As a female living in Egypt, I've felt much safer & more comfortable living in Egypt than the US!! So don't act like harassing happens in the MENA region only.
@Badr Elbadrawy well, i hate to break it to you, but it does include me. Cause guess what? Harassment doesn't happen to tourists only! And the comment is public so i can reply to whatever I want and say whatever on my mind, so chill fam don't be that pressed. And as I said before, harassment happens everywhere so if you advised a female to not travel alone to Egypt, then she shouldn't travel alone anywhere else in the world! So this theory is wrong, literally A LOT of female solo travellers visit Egypt every year and nothing happens to them, if someone faced harassment then it's a minority and can happen anywhere else. Bye.
@Badr Elbadrawy badr go live in turkey or Qatar please. You don’t know anything about Egypt and your hate is very obvious. 99% harassers LOL.
Been to Egypt twice and it was amazing but tho some people are very nice there are plenty perverts that act like they have never seen a woman and tons of people trying to scam you so just be careful and keep that in mind. Hurghada and Sham el Sheik by the Red Sea are amazing destinations.
Follow my channel if u love Egypt, loads of useful tips !
I agree that we have some people that are like that, but harassment happens everywhere in the world. Egypt is a safe place, the people you're talking about are a minority. And as a female living in Egypt, I can tell you that I feel more comfortable here than living in the US or the UK.. so despite that, you're welcome anytime in Egypt!

It’s common courtesy for women to cover up when entering holy mosques out of respect, if you’ve travelled to Muslim countries and visited mosques that’s common knowledge, however it wasn’t right for the man to film her without her permission!

I was in Egypt last February for 8 days, and our last 2 1/2 were in Cairo. By that time, I was anxious to leave. Our American tour guide had some residual issues from his previous visit a year earlier that caused concern at the beginning of our trip. I wanted to have my big camera out filming different activities, but only felt comfortable discretely holding my GoPro. I didn't want to deal with all of the badgering from vendors, or get questioned by authorities. Their law is whatever they decide. I still had a great experience visiting the other cities and landmarks throughout Egypt, and I'm so glad I got to go.

I had a similar experience in Egypt back in 2009 when I visited with a group of students from my university. We had an "FBI agent" with us while we were in Cairo, I definitely felt harassed as a woman even wearing the correct type of clothing, and one of the students was harassed by police at the pyramids because of the type of camera she was using. Having visited there it's definitely not a destination I recommend to everyone. The pyramids are dope but its just a lot fo trouble being in Cairo as a woman and after 10yrs I still don't know if I would travel there again.

You know in egypt we are under military dictatorship since 2013 that is the reason that they took all your photographing material because of Xenophobia many foreigners killed in egypt by national security or intelligence service for example the italian student" julio reginy " using your camera in the street may be a reason to sent you to the prison egypt now is a big prison and terrible place to live in you want my advice try other arab countries like morocco or tunisia or jordan they are much safer and they dont have the Security obsession that you found in egypt from the moment you arrived in the air port
@@abohafandi wow that is so discouraging to hear, I have yet to visit & C19 ruined my travel schedule. ugh I hope they change things over their that is ridiculous..thanks for letting us know. peace
Any civilization in the world is based on the principles of respect for the country, the place, the existing people, and the surrounding security assumptions In the place, and whoever violates this is considered, regardless of his nationality, a reactionary person, regardless of the different points of view. The security must do its job And this person's purpose is known from the video You Americans, keep you in the affairs of your country, it is enough that many countries have been lost because of you
Sorry guys we have alot of problems in our president
The good sightseeing in Egypt back to pharos and the othmani kingdom. But after is totally noise and disorganization.
Okay first of all I’m apologizing on behalf all the Egyptians for what happened to u there whether in the airport or what happened to your girlfriend .. believe me we are the Egyptians suffer from these issues too whether harassment or the exploitative and We are also exposed to these situations daily and we don’t support them.. I apologize again 🇪🇬
@Badr Elbadrawy ايوة يسطا حاسين بخطر في مصر عشان واحد عدا جنبها قالها متيجي في التابوت و نجيب حتشبسوت. طبعا مش بقلل من البنات اللي اتعرضت للتحرش الجسدي بس في نفس الوقت بلاش افورة كلنا لينا امهات و اخوات بنات في مصر اللي بتنزل من البيت مش بيتهتك عرضها في الشارع يعني .
Cairo is the most dangerous and uncomfortable place i’ve ever travelled. Would not recommend until a major shift in egyptian consciousness
This is the same place where the reporter Lara Logan was attacked and gang raped practically on camera. There is so much history in Egypt but the place is a dump no doubt. Link below.

I went to Egypt right before the pandemic hit and I can say that his final thoughts are 100% correct. I traveled with 2 other females and we were constantly stared at and lots of catcalling. We tried our best to dress modestly but it was still a thing. Although not enough to ruin our trip, for an inexperienced female traveler it could be overwhelming for sure.
There are liberal places like north coast and red sea where people won't care what u r wearing , it depends where u r in Egypt
I recommend you next time to avoid the old places where some racist and liberal people stunk there, I recommend you Red sea, Hurghada and those touristic places where females can wear whatever they like

Hi Christian - thanks for another awesome video. One question - I joined the LCA about 3 months ago and I still haven't got a 6 pack or lost any weight - My wife is starting to ask questions - any tips - 😂😆😂😄 Chris
I apologize to you for all the stupid situations that happened to you in Egypt
Egypt was the country where I was treated the worst as a tourist. Actual harassment from taxi drivers, vendors and even guides. It's obvious you are not welcome there, only your money is :)
And I travel alone. To me that is travelling, or at least the main part of it. I don't care about people who travelled there with organized tours or with Egyptian friends... those are just workarounds to an obvious problem.
I hope you are out of Egypt before posting this as they might trace and get ya. You are really unlucky with these thousand year old tourist hot spots.😅
Thanks for the warning. Better to choose more tourist friendly countries.
On behalf of all egyptians I apologize for all obstacles and impediments you faced. Regarding confiscation of your photography kit, such measures take place as egypt is a politically sensitive country and due to security issues in egypt, high magnification lesnses and drones are prohibited in egyptian market and its utilize in all forms is also strictly prohibited. But such issue must be demonstrated to you by the authorities instead of doing such measures with no consideration to you as a tourist. But, i think that you can get special permissions from specialized authorities so you can use drones and lenses as you like. Regarding harassments, even we egyptians suffer from such acts and it only represents scums of society not all egyptians. Again Im really sorry for what you came up against in egypt and I hope next times will be flawless. For any help or inquiries please don’t hesitate to ask me and i will be glad to assist you anytime.
Wish to visit Egypt bro
Aw ❤ lord, I love it and realy enjoy the video. richest history country. I hope One day can go there, after that I am pray have loyal subsriber like you 🤲
Christian, you have been always our #1 inspiration, it's not easy to get to your a level, but we will try 😅
Thanks guys 🙏🏼❤️
Egypt has strict rules about videography in their country. You're conducting business by making videos yet entered on a tourist visa? Don't blame Egypt. They're not "giving you problems" (your words - not mine). You didn't follow the rules. That's your fault.

What an epic travel vlog. Went to Egypt November 2019, we had a convoy of Egyptian guards following us everywhere. And yes, as a female traveler I didn't feel comfortable around Egyptian men.
Egypt is beautiful, and I am sorry for what happened to you
Cities differ in Egypt in everything that means Alexandria other than Cairo in dialect and sophistication
لو واحد عربي إلي انتقد كنت لقيت الهجوم من كل اتجاه بس صراحة عجبني كمية الاعتذرات إلي بالتعليقات مبروك عليكم
The best crew ❤️
Can't wait to see your channel take off dude
So handsome
@@lostleblanc Very soon! With you by my side i’m ready for this world ⚡️
I noticed that the customs at Cairo Airport are stealing quite a bit of stuff, and they are often selling it on the black marked of Cairo, so you might buy your equiptment back there.
They don’t steal it. Drones are not allowed in many countries. You have to know that if you travel often and respect the country’s rules.
@@mireillelouis5115 They should be more open about that!
About the Pyramids and the Aliens. It's Not AS stupid AS it Sounds xD I read 7 books about the Pyramids and ancient technologies ;) And The stuff that the agypt's build could bei possible with Just Hammer and shizel :D Just search some stuff from Brian foerster. Pretty interesting imop :)
I recommend you to visit Alexandria
