Cairo has an extensive road network, railway system, subway system, and maritime services. The transportation is well developed so that it is easy to commute. There are several options open for traveling inside the city like- taxis, cabs, privately-owned public buses, and microbuses etc. But what is recommended is to take a minibus that is not expensive and carries fewer passengers than normal buses, thus saving time. The subway is not very useful for tourists, but should be experienced once. Taxis are indispensable in Cairo's life as they are safe and comfortable way to get around the city.
When it comes to shopping, Cairo offers great fun. Painted and embellished papyrus scrolls are very popular here. The town is rich in antiquities, artifacts, jewelry, perfume, leather goods, brass and copper items, herbs and spices. The city's main market is the Khan al-Khalili in Islamic Cairo where you can find almost anything. The Street of the Coppersmiths is a place popular for copper and brassware.
