Overview

This experience shows you the shopping life of Egypt in Cairo and Giza. You will walk through the city and visit the oldest market (bazzar), where you can browse a range of Egyptian handmade products. As you move through the lanes, you will see traditional stalls alongside government-run shops that showcase locally made crafts. Along the way you will have the chance to write your name using the hieroglyphic alphabet, as kings and queens once did. You will also visit spice stores, cultural institutions and galleries that display regional art and craftsmanship. The experience typically includes tasting some of the most tasty local Egyptian food, giving you a sense of the flavours that accompany daily market life.
