About Spice Bazaar

Smaller and denser than the Grand Bazaar, the Egyptian Spice Bazaar dates to 1664. Come for saffron, sumac, dried figs, apple tea, and Turkish delight studded with pistachios. The guided walking tour is included with DISCOVER and PRIME.

Insider tips

  • Skip the front stalls; better prices sit deeper in the market.
  • Vacuum-packed spices survive the flight home.
  • The Rüstem Paşa Mosque next door is a tile-lover's secret.
