Cairo Shopping Day Tour

The Cairo Shopping Day Tour begins with your friendly guide welcoming you in your hotel lobby before embarking on a vivacious sojourn through Cairo´s most important shopping spots. Begin your day amid Cairo downtown markets bustling with life while looking through diverse clothing items, leather goods, and local food shops. Rejuvenate with a taste of traditional sugarcane juice before heading to historic Bab Zuwayla, one of the last remaining gates of Fatimid Cairo, to taste the charm of Cairo's old neighborhoods.

The walking tour continues through the atmospheric Khayamiya Market and El Ghoriya, where colorful textiles and traditional crafts abound.  You'll walk along El Moez Street, lined with some of Cairo's oldest and most beautiful streets, Islamic architecture, and cultural landmarks. Make sure to stop for that all-important picture at the Al Azhar Mosque and Al Hussein Mosque before resting at the famous El Fishawy Café in Khan El Khalili Bazaar. Enjoy traditional mint tea and soak in the energetic atmosphere of one of the oldest cafes in the Middle East.

Now move to the far northern gates of old Cairo, Bab al-Futuh, and Bab el-Nasr, where the medieval history of the city peeks in. The last stop on this tour is El Mosky Market, a fast-moving and diverse area where locals shop for everyday essentials and unique goodies alike. This market has everything from souvenirs to spices. It has been an idyllic day of exploration, shopping.
