Mango Market is a comfortable alternative to bazaar stalls — fixed prices, no haggling, no pushy sellers. Foreign cards accepted. Prices are slightly higher than a well-bargained market deal, but the experience is stress-free.
Ferrero Rocher chocolates are surprisingly expensive in Egypt and considered a luxury item. Locals love them — a box makes an excellent gift or can even be used as a bargaining chip in negotiations.
