Where to buy cheap fruits in Hurghada?

In Hurghada, as in other resort cities in Egypt, fruits can be bought in three main places: in supermarkets, at markets, and at street stalls. To buy cheaply and not be deceived, you need to know a few tricks.

1. Markets (bazaars): The most famous is the market in the old town El Dahar. Here you can bargain and possibly buy cheaper, but be careful:

• Prices are often not indicated, and tourists may be quoted inflated costs.
• Sellers themselves actively put fruits in bags and may slip in substandard items.
• Pay close attention to the scales to avoid deception.

2. Supermarkets: For example, chains like Metro, Carrefour, Alfa Market. Here are the advantages:

• All prices are clearly marked, you can choose each fruit yourself.
• There is weight control.
• This is an excellent price reference. Go to a supermarket first, find out the prices, then go to the market—this way you'll understand if it's worth bargaining there.

3. Street stalls: Convenient if they are near the hotel, but prices there are often the highest, aimed at tired tourists.
