Should You Stay in Cairo… or Go Straight to Giza? 🇪🇬

Cairo was intense… and it completely split our experience in two. 🇪🇬

After arriving from Sharm El Sheikh, the energy of the city felt overwhelming for me, while Paco absolutely loved the chaos, the people, and the nonstop movement. Same city, same day — totally different feelings.

In this video, we explore some of the most famous parts of Cairo, including Khan el-Khalili Bazaar, take a taxi ride that turns into a small city tour, and even stop at the Nile River for a moment of calm in the middle of all the madness.

This is our honest experience of Cairo — not just the beautiful moments, but also how it really felt emotionally.

If you’re planning a trip to Egypt, especially to Cairo, I hope this video helps you feel more prepared, especially if you’re more of a nature lover like me and not a big city person.

👉 Next episode: we’re leaving the city and heading to Giza and the Pyramids — can’t wait to share that with you!

Let us know in the comments:
Have you been to Cairo? Did you love it, or did you feel overwhelmed like me?

Thanks for watching and for being part of our journey ❤️
