In Egypt almost all visits to monuments require you pass through a tunnel of venders, all of whom will try to sell you something or lure into their shop. They are good people just trying to make a living, but be warned, if you venture into a shop if will be difficult to get without buying something. Egypt is the home of the hard sell. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
