Good things are very expensive.
The gold is not very good quality. And everything has to be bargained for desperately = it means knowing the real value of things.
Schwarm is not for shopping.

I agree with the first answer. Are you going to Sharm to relax by the sea, and not for shopping? You can say no gold. There are good terry towels, leather. And most importantly - bargaining!
And a lot of excursions. I liked Jerusalem. I advise.

so it is - it’s good expensive. It’s cheaper to buy at home (clothing glasses) and there tea and various local souvenirs, but be patient, you need to bargain everywhere. -the beauty!!!!

I agree with elenako. We bought towels, camel leather bags (brand fakes). So, we sell Chinese terry towels of not the worst quality, you should not drag them from there. We were in Tunisia in the summer and saw all (!) Models of these bags and they cost MUCH cheaper. The Tunisians claimed that they sew these bags and send them to resorts, incl. and in Egi. I tend to believe. What I would buy is coral or other ethnic jewelry, T-shirts (they took the children, washed them already, but the drawing and paints are alive. And it’s really better to spend money on excursions, they are worth it)))

How much money is not a pity to throw away, spend as much.
It can be $5-200. But all the same, these things will NOT be useful to you in the future.

To be honest, I was most interested in gold. My friends bought gold in Egypt, they wear it and are very satisfied. It is clear that they bought in a store in a hotel, and not on the street. But it is in any case cheaper than we have in Belarus.

Gold is far from cheap there (this is by Russian standards). Everyone’s tastes are different, of course, but I don’t like the quality of gold, as in Yegi (((..and there is doubt in the samples ... just expensive (very expensive) jewelry. And of course, many wear it)) I’m here I also sometimes wear cheap Turkish clothes with pleasure, it warms my soul as a memory of trips. =)

Of the good things you are unlikely to buy something there. I would advise you to first go to supermarkets with fixed prices, where they are written on each purchase, there are several of them in Sharm. At least you will be guided by the price level, and you will have an idea of ​​what approximate price you need to bargain in private shops. Although we bought all the souvenirs in supermarkets, they are even cheaper there, but you can choose calmly and no one is imposed.

What about supermarkets? Where are they?
аватар olaa
We liked the little supermarket at the end of the promenade behind the Naama Bay casino, I think it's called Zaza. There are very good souvenirs. There are two or three more shops with a mixed assortment: products and things, you will find them, they are on the central streets in Naama. By the way, you can still go shopping in the old city to the Old Market. Minibus - 1 pound per person, taxi - 15-20 pounds. But bargain there.

Olaa, have you been to Soho? What kind of shops are there?

there is a large Carrefour supermarket in Naama. everything's there. and the prices are good. more Metro near the Old Market and near "Leyla la leyla" (1000 and 1 night)
for clothes - in Il Mercato you can find some good things. I bought myself a couple of things. but you need to know where to go.
