Peace be upon you. To every person and every tourist visiting Egypt, my advice to every Egyptian—whether a guide, hotel or resort worker, street vendor, shop owner, or driver—is this: We are all Egyptians, so please treat tourists with respect and courtesy. Don't make tourists hate Egypt or ruin their time. Make them love Egypt, its people, and its places. Let tourists enjoy every minute of their visit. Don't cheat tourists, exploit them, or deceive women. Just be honest and respectful. Don't force anyone to buy anything. Act with your inherent respectability. It's not befitting of us as Egyptians to exploit tourists and make them hate Egypt. Instead, let them love Egypt, its people, and its tourism. Treat people as you would like to be treated. Don't ask for tips, and be trustworthy with the tourists you're with so they return home and recommend Egypt to everyone, speaking highly of it. I see negative situations like scams, harassment, and deception every day in Facebook groups, and this saddens me as a local guide and as an Egyptian who loves his country and its tourism. Please let this message reach everyone. To everyone in the world 🌎, so that everyone knows that we are a welcoming, kind-hearted, and humble people who respect our country and the tourists who visit it. Thank you to every tourist who visited Egypt, enjoyed it, and loved it from the bottom of their heart. Don't force tourists to choose you as a guide, hotel, or driver. Let each tourist choose freely. I apologize for my long message. I am a local Bedouin tour guide. I love, respect, and appreciate my country, and I respect every tourist who comes to Egypt so they can enjoy their time. Thank you all.
