We walked there, and back on the blue minibus went up to the back of Il Mercato for 1 pound.
Taxi bargain from 2 to 3 dollars in the Old Market from your hotel

There is a Metro supermarket near Alf Leila wa Leila, where we bought everything more often than spoil our nerves in the Old Market.
Before leaving for souvenirs and some fruits, we went specially to the Old Market.

The price is 2 dollars, for suckers 4. The taxi driver can say that there is no change. Or just give less. Therefore, keep one dollar with you will not hurt.
Walking distance to the Oldmarket is far, and the walk will not bring pleasure. If you take a walk, it is better to eat a small market nearby - 5 minutes on foot, the difference in prices is 1 dollar maximum.
In general, in Egypt, apart from souvenirs, do not try to buy anything. Everything is expensive and poor quality. Houses are cheaper. Exceptions are pearls and that is not a fact.
I wish you a good rest! Good luck!

Taxi $5 can be negotiated for $4 from the main entrance to the hotel. Immediately agree with the driver at what time he will pick you up. Walking to the Old Market is very far away, on foot you can walk to Leila Valeila there, by the way, it’s better to buy souvenirs, cheaper than at Naama Bay and the Old Market. Fruits really bought in the Old Market everything else on Layla Valeile.

From the reception of Royal Grand Sharm 5 * to the entrance to the Old Market 2km. 300 meters. Maybe someone is very far away, but what to do in the evenings, how not to take a walk.
The cross on the map in the middle is the hotel reception, the Old Market on the left side of the map hover over, everything is signed there, try to go on different search engines to get exactly to this page

just do not forget that this is a foreign country, in some places the roads are quite deserted, and after intimidation by representatives of tour operators and Arabs, clinging every 100 m with offers to buy something, not everyone will easily decide on these 2.3 km.
Especially for people on vacation who have paid a lot of money for vouchers and are ready to spend the same amount on the market - it costs nothing to spend $ 5 and "be calm" that they will be taken and taken back.
They said the options, but everyone will make a decision on the spot, and it seems to me that it will be a taxi in 99% of cases :)

Are you willing to take risks for $3??? As for me, the fact that 5 that 3 that 2$ the difference is not great and there is no need for comparisons of 10 and 20$. I paid 5 and don't worry.

I advise you to take a walk along the wall of Alfilela Valela (that is, the castle of 1001 nights) there as a small old market, but there is no fruit. otherwise you will find everything, everything is the same as in the old market. and cotton and bags and silver and pareo and clothes. (about the old market - Although there is an army at the entrance, to be honest, they will pester you very much. You will get tired of such evening walks.) So, near a thousand and one nights there is a mini market, located on the wall of the palace from the outside, plus opposite the metro supermarket is just worth it, where you can buy fruits cheaper than at the old market (unless, of course, you are a master of bargaining) In the metro, all prices are fixed and there is no choice. It is also fashionable to buy halva, olive oil, dates, mangoes (green) and much more.

Alexey 23, the question is not about money, but about the question that was asked. Asked how much it costs, the answer is 2 dollars. And there is no risk in this, it is a good price.
If you feel it necessary to pay more, that's your right. It gave me more pleasure to give money in gratitude to people I liked than to be a "sucker". Sorry, this does not apply to anyone in particular, but you can’t throw words out of a song.
As for the 2nd and 3rd lines, I'm condescending to your young age and just smile. )))
And do not think that all Egyptians are thieves and deceivers, they are not. There is simply a category of people who deceive and a category of people who are deceived.
But mostly they are hardworking and honest (there are exceptions).
We also went for a walk in the evenings to 1001 nights.
I wish you a pleasant stay.

What is the risk???
After all, they can take it anywhere by car.
And we simply did not pay attention to harassment - we ignored it like deaf-mutes. And note that no one will touch your hands without permission.
And they are also afraid of the tourist police. "Shorta siYaha", which means in Arabic - tourist police, you can say Police - Shurta or Shorta (they understand this way and that)

Sonlce, we also went to 1001 nights, I say that it is dangerous to walk to the OLD MARKET, and the price of a car from the main entrance to the hotel is from $ 5 to $ 3 and there is no overpayment in this, but to be a "loh" and pay for a comfortable ride I don't see any parallel between the two. They took him where they said and arrived on time and took him back, so why not pay a person not $6 or $5 (in both directions), but $10 for comfort.

Well, you're exaggerating. Walking is not dangerous if you start walking before sunset, around 4 pm is the best time. You will be able to see the sun. I live there not far from 1001 nights, and if necessary, I will gladly tell and show everything.
And there really is no risk. We really have everything now in the tourist police and the army occupies the whole city, so feel free to walk. Intrusive Arabs are quieter than water anywhere grass. Only to go for a walk at 10 pm to the old market is still worth a taxi, so as not to get lost and not turn around.

Alexey, you are correct, taxi drivers have bread. They are already so tired of us locals .. we ride for 10 pounds. I happen even for 5 !!! that is less than a dollar. But the taxi driver is different for the taxi driver, it happens that he will finish it so much already in the car that it’s a pity to pay even 5 pounds. And sometimes he puts on a piece of music and doesn’t enter into strange conversations, and I’ll pay him 15, because it was easy to go with him.
