Local Tourists


It was heartening to see Egyptians visiting Giza in the absence of foreign tourists. There were school trips and simply friends wandering around enjoying a chance to see the pyramids without the crowds. Many of them took the chance to ride camels and horses as well, which helps the economy here. I loved the flag cape.

  1. Yes, at a time like this, it would be good for local Egyptians to refresh their understanding of their long and storied culture. I expect that bargainhunting foreign tourists will start appearing before long.
