This construction was part of the process of rebuilding started under Sultan Barquq (ruled from 1382-1399) to help the city recover from the ravages of the Black Death throughout the 13th and 14th-centuries. Today, the market has been modernized significantly, but there are still portions that display the original Mamluk style architecture, which featured great archways and vaulted ceilings.you have lunch koshry , back to hotel,

Khan el-Khalili Tour with Bisho - Bisho was an excellent guide and tailored our tour for our interests. He was knowledgeable, had a great sense of humor and filled in the drive time with observations about Egyptian history and culture. Our driver, Islam was professional and negotiated the sometimes crazy traffic skillfully. Highly recommend this tour guide

Lovely shopping day! - Had such a lovely day today with this activity. Marsile was very patient with us. We love looking and often don't buy, however we did make a few small purchases and didn't feel pressured. Marsile is very kind and makes you feel comfortable. We got great information and loved being around a Cairo local. The first few shops, perfume, jewlery and cotton are geared towards tourists but we didn't mind that. We then walked around Khan El Khalili and were free to go in the shops we wanted as well as being shown some. We weren't pushed for time and felt like Marsile easily could of let us look all day. We went to a local traditional restaurant which was a great experience as a tourist, somewhere we otherwise wouldn't of been brave enough to stop at because of the language barrier. We really loved this and the food was great! Thanks again Marsile, my sister, mum and I had a great time :) thankyou !

Wandering cobblestoned streets at Khan El khalili! - Excellent tour! It was a hot day and my 8 year old was not really excited about being outside. Demiana was so patient and kind. She even stopped to buy my son a snack before we started walking! We took time to walk past mosques on our way to the Khan El khalili market. Demiana was very knowledgeable about history. She also helped me to identify a market with items made in Egypt in the Khan El khalili market as some oof the markets have items made in China. Our driver Tamer was excellent as well! If you wanted, you could make a day of it, walking and exploring but I would recommend starting earlier in the day, we started at 10. Would definitely recommend this tour!

Be aware! Not as advertised - Be aware if booking this tour. It is NOT just the Khan el-Khalili market. You will be taken to all the factories they get kick backs from and if you’re lucky you’ll get an hour at the bazar.
