Fun shopping trip

Had an awesome time. Doaa (our guide) got us to all the best places and made it where my husband even enjoyed shopping. Ahmed (driver) was great and took care of all our bags. A very fun evening was had.

Disappointing Tour Experience with Fake Products

I had a really disappointing experience. The saffron I bought turned out to be fake when I tested it at home. On top of that, the coffee I purchased was ten times more expensive than the same coffee I bought fresh from the mall after the tour. There was nothing special about the experience. The guide should ensure that they present trustworthy vendors who sell authentic, not fake, items.

Good price, decent experience

Imad was my driver and he was very attentive and kind. He took me and from the market and drove me around to see Cairo and visit the shops, always attentive to my needs. We had koshari for lunch, drinks included, and it was great! Some of the shopkeeps in the itinerary were respectful (Noha from the Mamluk Jewellery and Bazaar was extremely kind, as were the gentlemen from Merit Bazaar and 3 Pyramids Papyrus institute), others not so much and were very pushy. In particular, one in the aromatherapy shop was extremely rude and unkind as soon as I said I wasn't interested in buying (we had been to 6 shops before). He scolded me and my driver, tried to charge me 30 dollars for "telling me a story" (?), addressed me like I'm a stray dog for not wanting to give him "30 dollars" (insistent!) and dismissed us out of his store and deteriorated the overall experience. There's also no point in complaining, as in the end, it'll somehow be your fault. All in all, I'd give the overall experience a 3/5 if not for Imad's kindness and that of a few vendors who made this trip memorable. If you book this trip, ask for Imad to be your driver.

Good guide, mid-level activities

Like the other reviews mention, you are first taken to 5 stores (spices, cotton, papyrus, jewelry, oils). These are standard--they give their spiel & want you to purchase from them. The jewelry shop itself seemed extremely overpriced. The guide waits at the front during these times. After the shops, you're then taken to the market. I found the market itself to be underwhelming. Mostly it's all trinkets and all the stands repeat. Our guide Marsil was very kind and knowledgeable, and our driver John was kind as well. They were lovely, however I would not repeat this tour as the market itself I found to not be great.

Great tour

Our guide Ehab was very knowledgeable and helped guide us through the khan el-khalili. The lunch spot they took us to was very good. Would highly recommend going to the bazaar with a tour guide. Ehab made our experience so much better.

Fun time!

Our trip was great, we got some good shopping in. Our guide knew exactly where to go to find the things we were interested in. The food at lunch was maybe the best part! Best little place outside the market
