Real Egypt guides are not permitted to get commission from shop owners. Our payment to guides is good so they do not need to seek extra money from coerced shopping. However, should you wish to shop then our guides will take you to some good, reliable and properly priced shops.Our policy is to be honest and treat our customer as a guest not as a client.

Some Cairo tours include Khan el Khalili bazaar. This is not included to persuade you to shop, it is a unique experience of walking through a bazaar which began its life in 1382 and continues its vibrant life in modern Egypt. It is an opportunity to see examples of many Egyptian crafts and Fishawy, a historic cafe.
