IS EGYPT SAFE FOR WOMEN?
I just wanted to wrap up this Travel Deeper Egypt Series with a very simple, quick video based on the most frequently asked question while I was traveling here… Is it safe for women to travel Egypt on their own?
I wanted to make this a separate video so it wouldn’t get lost in the full Egypt Travel Guide. So, if you haven’t seen that one make sure you watch that next: https://youtu.be/46aHh-aVRCA
As a 6’2”, 200lb American man, it’s difficult for me to give you a realistic response on women’s safety in Egypt, so while traveling around the country we stopped and asked women their first-hand experience...
TALK TO THE WOMEN DIRECTLY: Averi - https://averimelcher.com/ Mashon - https://www.instagram.com/mashonthomas/ Lora - https://www.instagram.com/explorewithlora/ Cherisse - https://www.instagram.com/passionwithapassport/ Alex - https://www.instagram.com/alexinwanderland/ https://www.alexinwanderland.com/wander-women-retreats/
A lot of people commented in the full Egypt Travel Guide video that “why deal with the hassle of going to Egypt with all these problems” and too that I say, if don’t correctly, the juice is 100% worth the squeeze. It is one of the most historically significant places on the planet.
It is definitely a place for more advanced travelers that want to embrace the adventure, and if you’re not a well-seasoned traveler; my best advice is to just find a really good guide.
Truthfully, the place you will have the most issues on your entire trip is the Pyramids of Giza. 13 teens just got arrested for harassing girls, and they were just as aggressive with us. They just surround you and want selfies - but there is no real danger in this.
I compare Egypt to Brazil - in brazil you need to watch your belongings and you could be robbed at any moment, where as in Egypt, you will just be heckled and people will try to talk you out of your money vs forcefully.
If you are a woman who has been to Egypt, it would be amazing if you share your experience in the comments below for others to follow.
And with that being said, that’s an official wrap on this first Egypt series - Next up a few videos from my adopted hometown of San Diego and then its off to Croatia!
