Hey Deluxe Travel, glad you found out about it and hope the tour went well. The people of Garbage City are providing a great service and I hope the new government gives them a real contract.

I have clients who wanted a day tour to the Garbage City “Zabaline” well to tell you the truth although I am an Egyptian I did not know where this place is so I had to do research until I came accross your website. Your information is quiet valuable and the photos are good. I have to say thank you for helping me figure out designing this tour.

I wonder how do clients know about our country more than we do?

It is in no way ideal. I would guess the age of death is pretty low due to bad health, diet and all the flies and things hanging around. if only they could get government support for their operations!

Garbage City used to be cleaner, they had pigs that ate the organic waste. After swine flu hit Egypt the government slaughtered all 300,000 pigs in the country. The goats and sheep can’t eat the organic waste fast enough. Also cats and dogs are choosing to eat organic watse now rather than vermin so the rat and weasel population is shooting up. I have been told that there have been instances of huge rats killing cats recently, which is quite scary!

So garbage city isn’t an ideal way to live. We should learn from them, but sorting through that filth does cause more sicknesses?

The biggest disease problem is Hep but luckily I am all shot up for those so no real concern. There are some stomach bugs and things floating around so you need to be careful about cleanliness when eating in poor areas, generally it’s fine though.

Wow, that is simply amazing.
There arent diseases or things like that floating around garbage city? I’d think with all the garbage, it would cause problems, no?
