Episode 3 - this video:

We survived Egypt Days 7–10... barely. Valley of the Kings? Epic. Hatshepsut’s beard? Iconic. Guided tour shops? Predictable.

From tipping random strangers to booking a hot-air balloon the night before (don’t do that), we explored temples, got scammed by a horse, and snorkelled our way to Giftun Island, only to pay for overpriced "superstar" photos.

And guess what? This is still part of the *official* itinerary.
Next time? No guided tour. Just a guide.
