Egypt was just like a red pepper... it burns and shocks you in many ways,
but you can't get enough of it and it leaves you hungry to see and experience more.
Good morning! We've made it to Istanbul airport it was a super early wake-up call for us
we didn't even see the sunrise before we made it to the airport
All right, let's do this!
Bright and early and there's still a line to get into the airport
it's crazy how crowded it is!
We were kind of surprised by the crowd here this lounge actually is pretty packed out compared to when we went to Dubai
a little bit earlier on. We are going to finally make it to another new place
Super excited, a little bit nervous...
Some people have reached out to us and we're wondering if we're going to Egypt is that exactly the most safe place right now but
we are excited it has been a country on our bucket list for a really long time
seeing the pyramids, Luxor, Sharm El Sheikh, there's so much to offer there and we are really excited to finally make it to Egypt!
So since our last time here this is now a burger jack and the monument
that was over here now moved all the way onto the other side i'm getting off now
Holy cow! We've just hit the lottery! They just gave us a free upgrade to business
class because they overbooked the fight!
I don't know if it's because Gokce is the only Turkish person on board they're like 1A and 1B!
Thanks so much Turkish Airlines!
Business Class!
Not quite the New York Business Class, but no complaints... no complaints!
This is kind of the situation you always dream about, but...
Yeah it didn't happen for our honeymoon, but I guess uh this is our second honeymoon
I think it's a great way to start our vacation, I'm so happy and it's only for two hours but so worth it!
Funny enough, it was a year ago today that we last flew Turkish Airlines Business Class (on points) back home
from Bali. Different set of circumstances and it was the second time we ever wore a mask on
a flight and we were hoping that it wasn't going to last this long, but one year later still wearing a mask
Oh.. They have bal-kaymak!
They have bal & kaymak?
Do you have champagne?
Champagne? Let me check!
Starting early, huh?
Thank you!
and that is the bal kaymak (honey & milk fat), the good stuff
Finally, breakfast is served. Took the mask off for a little bit and be careful as possible and
enjoy breakfast here in Turkish Airlines, they are famous for their delicious food on their plates
I can't believe it's so much food!
Gokce decided to celebrate getting upgraded to business class and of course got champagne
I've never opened a champagne bottle on a plane before, ah they have like a cap for the plane
just a twist off
What a gentleman!
You know what they say... Go big or go home! Cheers!
The flight attendant, who is responsible for our seats, is so so sweet. She was like
"Hey, do you guys want a Turkish coffee? I'll make it especially for you!"
So they gave us the Turkish Coffee, and they are serving it with lokum, or Turkish Delight as well
So so special for a two-hour flight, we're so really grateful for this. What a way to start Egypt!
Seems like we have a remote gate waiting for us here in Sharm El Sheikh Airport,
just like old Istanbul Airport.
Let's get off this plane!
I can't believe it, we're in Egypt!
Hi Mohammed!
Hello Mohammed! How are you doing?
Fine thank you!
It's hot here, hot yes
Very hot, too hot for you Steve?
Especially for the sweater that we flew from Istanbul with...
I'm just so amazed by everything... I can't stop staring outside!
Never seen anything like this before, it's awesome!
It's beautiful, it's very beautiful!
Welcome to Dahab!

Thank you!
Hello!

We've made it to Dahab! We did!
OMG we made it!!
and I'm so happy that they actually care a lot about the healthcare issues
Great welcome drinks, cheers!
Thank you, thank you!
I really love how spacious this is, and authentic it is to Egypt!
Hello, may I help you please?
Well, and apparently Gokce comes with the room so uh
Come check it out!
Yeah I'll come around
You can even open the windows and straightly look out to the water from the bathtub
and in the toilet area you can see outside, there is some shower and like outside sun and comes in here
but my favorite part about this room is the outdoor shower
Well it's good to know it works, right?
Yeah it does, it's really nice
stay till the end of the video!
Please don't!
and that's it for another Gokce & Steve room tour!
We have so much more of Egypt to share starting with the Sinai peninsula
So be sure to subscribe, because next up we will take you around Dahab, Egypt!
Oh my god!
So I guess we don't have a ferry to go back to?
