Relatively cheap jewelry (if you bargain correctly, prices are initially 1.5-2 times higher than in Russia), leather (everyone buys bags, especially from snakes and crocodiles), suitcases, all kinds of hookahs, etc., as well as local perfume.
Clothing is also inexpensive. We bought good dresses there for cheap, a bunch of T-shirts as gifts.

Gold is inexpensive, you can bargain.
For example, I bought a scarab - a pendant for a bracelet for 50 dollars, and initially it cost 66 dollars. Our girls who are bargaining are especially fond of.
Hookahs for 15-25 dollars, depending on what sizes you want.
I can't help you with clothing.

for me, Egypt is not a place for shopping!! for this lesson you need to choose another country. : having chosen a product, say the price that suits you, if the seller does not agree, turn around and leave ... either he will catch up with you and sell you at your appointed price, or you will buy the same thing at your price in another store!))) successful shopping !!! ;)

We bought our daughter a national costume for $20, very cheap shawls (Arafits), good and inexpensive cotton robes. In general, Egyptian cotton is very good. In my experience, hookahs in Egypt are cheaper than in Turkey. And on departure in Egyptian duty free, everything is much cheaper than, for example, in Antalya.

Hello, we are going to Egypt to rest. We buy clothes in other places and countries. I don’t see the point in spending money on souvenirs at all, because. in any stall in Russia you can buy the same thing. And in general, all the Egyptian souvenirs were presented to me by the merchants themselves, you just need to talk with them about their family, their country, and they are ready to give you a gift and a good discount.

THERE IS ONLY POOL FROM SOUVENIRS, OILS (IF THEY NEED THEM), LEFT PAPYRUS, COTTON THERE IS GOOD, BUT THERE ARE NO MODELS. THERE IS NO WHERE TO BUY THERE. POSSIBLE HOOKS AND GOLD.

Hookahs - definitely! We bought both for ourselves and as gifts for friends, relatives, the same picture was with the rest of the passengers of our plane. Small ones can be taken for $4-7, more from $10. These are the prices of a large bazaar in the Old City after the auction.

There is no point in buying clothes there, except perhaps someone wants to have a national costume as a keepsake... Only jewelry, hookahs, papyri, oils, local perfumes, leather goods are brought from there. And that's it!

If you want to do business, then take papyri, and the left ones are 4 pounds (1 c.u.), and not at the factory for 30. Only a professional will distinguish a fake. At home, they already cost 10 c.u., and I sold for 5 Were happy and buyers and I. And there are awesome towels for 25 pounds, but you still have to bargain, they will be cheaper. Metal plates are just fantastic. And for the hookah, get more tobacco and coal. In our country, it is 10 times more expensive.

Egyptian cotton is considered the best in the world. Silver and gold jewelry is good and the prices are reasonable. You just need to bargain. Oils are excellent, better, perhaps, only Indian ones.

Inexpensive silver jewelry, you can still buy a very inexpensive suitcase on wheels, but ALWAYS BARGAIN until the last!!! Even if you will buy something on the hotel premises.

Hibiscus!!! Take a lot of hibiscus! It's cheap and delicious :-)
аватар el.liwka
I do not advise buying in Hurghada, I advise you to look for everything in Luxor, prices are aimed at a local resident. Hibiscus, yes, coffee, tea, fruits (super mangoes), gold, equipment, long clothes, medicines and cosmetics. Everything is very cheap, but not in places for tourists!
аватар Lkabelka
If not in tourist places, but in cities where the local population lives, prices are very low and the quality of clothes, oils, gold is very good! It is in the resorts that the prices are raised by 2 or 3 times especially for tourists. And also sell low-quality goods often. But the choice in Egypt is different from ours. Not everything can be found, or it is expensive to find.
