About
About Amakken
Amakken is an independent travel blog about Egypt — written slowly, checked twice, and published from the places it describes.
Field notes, not articles
Every story here describes something we actually did: a place we stood in, a price we paid, a road we took.
Arabic and English, both properly
Every story is written in Arabic and English, not translated word-for-word. Arabic is the source.
The small details
From where to pitch a tent to when the first bus leaves, and which shopkeeper to trust to the best sandwich on the road — the small details are what make a trip easier.
