Q: Is bargaining mandatory during the Cairo shopping tour?

Yes, bargaining is expected in traditional souks like Khan el-Khalili. Aim for 30-50% off the initial price to reach a fair deal.

Q: How much cash should I carry for a shopping tour?

Carry Egyptian Pounds (EGP) for small stalls and markets. Larger boutiques and malls may accept credit cards, but cash is king in souks.

Q: Are there specific items I should look for in Cairo?

Look for high-quality papyrus, handmade spices, intricate brassware, Egyptian cotton textiles, and authentic alabaster carvings.

Q: What is the best way to transport heavy shopping bags?

Most tours provide a vehicle. If walking, use a taxi or Uber to move between districts, but avoid carrying large bags in crowded markets.

Q: How can I verify the authenticity of Egyptian souvenirs?

Buy from reputable shops or guided tours. For papyrus and stones, ask for certificates of authenticity to avoid cheap imitations.

Q: Are there any restrictions on what I can bring back home?

Check your country's customs laws regarding food (spices), antiques, and large items. Always ask for a receipt for customs clearance.
