    66: Egypt & Jordan

    Your favorite sister duo welcomes guests Hanna and Firas to discuss their recent trip to Egypt and Jordan. They discovered that Egypt’s chaos is matched only by its jaw-dropping history—from crawling inside pyramids to sailing the Nile on a quiet dahabiya. Transitioning to Jordan, they highlight the historical sites in Amman, including Jerash, and the breathtaking beauty of Petra. Along the way, they were struck by how safe, welcoming, and generous everyone was. The episode is part travel recap, part love letter to the Middle East, and a strong case for why these destinations deserve way more hype. Egypt & Jordan Recommendations: Egypt Guided tour highly recommended – history + logistics matterPyramids of Giza – allow hours; go inside if you canGrand Egyptian Museum – modern, massive, must-seeNile River Cruise – dahabiya > big shipsAbu Simbel – worth the long journeyEat local – koshari, ta‘ameya (fava beans), street juicesJordan Amman – walkable, relaxed, great foodJerash – world-class Roman ruins, minimal crowdsPetra – arrive early and/or stay near Petra gate the night before, be prepared to hike!Wadi Rum – unreal landscapes, stellar stargazingDead Sea – float, mud spa experienceEat mansaf – national dish, don’t skip it Check out our website: loveitthere.square.site Follow Love It There on Instagram: @loveittherepod Prefer video podcasts?
