Fun afternoon in the market neighborhood of Old Cairo

Robert_M, Feb 2024

Had a great time on our afternoon at the market. Our guide was so pleasant and friendly, she made the whole afternoon very enjoyable. After a tour of two mosques, including a visit to the top of a minaret with great views over the city, we wandered through streets around the market with the locals before focusing on the market itself, where she helped us haggle with the vendors to buy items and souvenirs. Feel like we got a great sense of the market area for our time and money.
