Exploring Aswan's Nubian Village: Egypt's Golden Gem 🇪🇬
Aswan was our last stop in Egypt, and we had the privilege of enjoying authentic Nubian hospitality. The Nubian people reside in southern Egypt and northern Sudan and have their very own language and culture. We knew we had to pay the Nubian village a visit, so from Aswan, we took a boat to a nearby island with colorful homes and welcoming residents. We got to enjoy a delicious Nubian meal under the stars before heading to the Aswan airport, where we unfortunately encountered a very upset Egyptian policeman. 🇪🇬

my dad is nubian and i always wondered why he would heat up frosted flakes in the microwave with extra sugar. Literally just realized he was replicating this dessert lolll.
So awesome!!! The Nubian people are so significant to the foundation of Egyptian history. They are the brown skinned gods and pharaohs depicted in the temples and monuments all throughout Egypt.
Yup
Finally people who show the true beauty of Egypt. Thank you for this video.
Glad you enjoyed it! :D
I love your series - but what you must know is that Aswan, Sharm El Sheikh - and several areas are high security so filming inside airports and facilities are a no-no. Especially if you're seen continuously shooting and panning the premises. It's something that many bloggers need to understand.
Something we will certainly look out for in the future. Thanks for explaining!
Your ornament collection is certainly going to be a sentimental treasure. I am so happy you are cherishing the “little” things.
I stayed at the Bob Marley Guesthouse from the 5 to 10 of April
Wow the Nubian village was beautiful 💜💜
I wanted to let you know that past few weeks have been really personally hard, and during that I rediscovered your KZhead channel and have been binging all your videos and they’ve been making me so happy. Thank you for sharing all your travels! ❤️
Kala, Thanks for sharing that with us. We hope for nothing more than to bring joy to this world. Hope the next few weeks are better than they have been. Trust me, I've been there and it gets better. Keep pushing! -Chad
Enjoyed watching the Egypt series. What a beautiful country! Sorry for the bad experience in the airport though.
No worries! At the time of filming we were still quite annoyed, but we still had a wonderful time overall.
I'm digging those Nubian vibes.
Wow,it's a really beautiful place, culturally and spiritually. You appreciate it the longer you stay.... Thanks for sharing guys!!!
What a experience on the African continent! Awesome
I am Egyptian and I subscribed to your beautiful channel. You are amazing couple.
Sonny from Best Food Review KZhead channel also had a bad experience filming in Egypt. Sorry you had to experience that.
I just wrote that you guys didn’t have such experience like Sonny’s but so sad to hear this although people seem very nice except for that one angry person.
Hi kids ! Wow, beautiful scenery on the boat. Great vlog as usual, not sure I’d try eating camel meat 😮. Looked kind of like beef, loved the tour in Egypt. Better history lessons then in school, and awesome pictures. Thanks for the tour 😊, safe flight home 🙏. Can’t wait to see how your house is doing, oh and love the henna Claire 🌺. Oh oh and that airport security guy sounded really scary Chad 😕
hello where did you stay in aswan thankyou wonderful video
Love watching your video. You not only bring us to your adventures but your smile, joy and positive thought is so calming. God bless you and family
Thank you so much!
so awesome!
Amazing series, thanks so much for sharing!
I know in some countries sometimes money can handle the situation more easily than doing or saying anything. But can only be done in a secret and smart way.
Nice video.
Had a beer (well 4 actually) today on the top of the Bob Marley Restaurant
Love watching your videos☺️
Thank you!!
I hope you spent agood trip & come back soon egypt is full of atourism places you never seen before good luck my friends safe flight inshaa allah
Wow, the boat tour looks really interesting. The sunset view was truly mesmerising. Hope you guys will make it to Bangladesh in the future. Love & respect from Bangladesh
This video was especially pretty,maybe it’s the light, maybe it’s your shooting, I really enjoyed this.
Thanks for sharing. Glad you have a great time in Egypt. Stay safe and have fun. Cheers 🍜🍜🧔🏻
Thanks! 😃
Thanks for informing us on the Nubian culture :) I loved everything about this vlog! (except the part where yall got in trouble for recording - thats so scary! Is it illegal in all airports??)
Incredible Egypt series you guys nicely done! We are headed there end of May wanted to know how and where did you get a covid test to return to the US? We are well traveled but this part is a bit tricky for us, so looking for answers. Thanks and looking forward to seeing more content!
I was looking at some of the tags on there items, found some made in Thailand LOL
Sorry about the police personnel thing, thing is Egypt faced an isis insurgency from 2013 to 2018 so security is really tight especially around gov buildings, airports, churches, embassies etc… cams aren’t allowed not to show internal layout of buildings, number or equipment used by security personnel. It’s inconvenient but it’s for your safety as tourists.
How on earth would u guys be insurgents? It is so annoying and puts a little dent on Egypt. but love you guys .
@@bossdeman well we were not insurgents but we had one. just look at the past 12 year at countries that had revolutions or insurrections. Ukraine, Venezuela, Colombia, Algeria, Tunisia, libya, Sudan, Syria, Iraq, Lebanon, Yemen. It just goes down hill afterwards. Total anarchy gripped Egypt in 2011 to 2013 resulting in an islamic government being elected. Luckily we remedied the situation fast by taking to the streets and returning the power to the army. Islamists didn’t just return home, the took arms and aligned themselves with isisfrom 2014 onward. The Egyptian army destroyed over 10,000 cars trying to cross from libya alone from 2014 to 2019 and killed over 10,000 jihadis in sinai. And occasionally terrorism spilled in the heart of the country. We lost over 1800 civilians and military personnel in that insurgency but luckily we ended it. That’s why security here is really tight.
I stumbled on your videos like 3 days ago. I LOVE each and every one of them. Especially the Nile river. I Never comment on stuff , but I had to thank you guys for these.. (:
Awh! Glad you enjoyed them!! 😁 thanks for spending your time on us!
Had a great time watching your travels through Egypt. Enjoyed the Egyptian scenery from the various boat rides on the Nike River. How did you recover the deleted files that the Egyptian security person deleted? Watching the video was just like being on the trip with you guys!
We are so glad you enjoyed our series. I actually knew how to recover footage from a time I accidentally deleted footage on our SD card. Although I failed the first time, I remembered some of the software I used.
Great video! Loved the Nubian village. I get nervous haggling price too. Anyway, so glad I found your channel and I look forward to seeing all your adventures!
Coriander Cumin there's plenty at Vietnamese Indian supermarkets all over USA only cost $2.99 for 1 pound
You dont need to worry about exploring the street by yourself. Whatever is stereotyped about Egypt being not safe is not true. The phase of instability is long gone since 2014 and even then people were still hospitable and nice and would never harm you. And bargaining is a thing that even us Egyptians have to do 😅
Ali is the best!
I cried on my departure....Aswan. will always hold beautiful. memories in my heart
Hey guys I am sorry for what happened with your encounter with the security people. They are terrible in Egypt and literally paranoid about cameras.
Great piece. Can you please tell me how you booked this trip, was it through an agency or on your own? We plan on a September trip but don't know how to do it, please advice.
Hello. How much it to get your henna done? Thanks, sabrina
How was your experience go thru the airport custom there? People complained about police enforcing random rules there.
Did you get to keep your spices through Customs? Once, we bought coffee in Cuba, but it was confiscated at the airport because it wasn't vacuum-sealed. I hope you got to keep it!
I was going to ask same question! ❤️❤️
We did!! Probably have to look out for this next time we buy spices.
Plenty saffron at Indian market all over USA
It's never a bright idea to film in foreign airports, for future reference. Many airports also serve as military bases and they consider fliming to be a breach of security at the best, potential espionage at worst.
What was the name of your hotel? Guess house?
I’m sorry you were shocked at the airport. But bomb threats are a huge threat in Egypt, the Middle East and Europe.So the rules in public places are very strict.
Only hospitality is like that in the middle east
It’s common sense never film in airport or security centers worldwide
a little scarey with the police...I wouldn't want to get locked up in a 3rd world prison. Otherwise was so pretty, and the boat trips looked amazing!
You have been fooled with the saffron, it is common knowledge that tourists are deceived with this product. 1 kg of saffron costs between 30,000 and 40,000 euros.
You have a good chinese girlfriend. She is very well spoken and western which helps. I have travelled all over Africa and Asia
So rude! She's an American born and raised
How can they kill and eat a camel!
I always travel by myself, no guide, no tip,tip,tip,tip,tip, it gets old, The Nubian village is a tourist trip, mass produced junk, go down town in most city's and you will find better items.
DO NOT GO TO EGYPT! Its the worst place Ive ever travelled!
