Cigars in Egypt?

[Tanga]

I am going to Egypt and the Pyramides on vacation. Anybody know about the cigar culture in Egypt? Are there any stores selling cigars?:scratchhe

I am going to Sharm-el-Sheik but I will also be visiting Cairo.

I have a friend that lives in Egypt. I can put you in touch with him you like. There are stores there that sell cigars but the taxes extremely high....one of the highest in the world. You'ld be better off bringing your own.

I lived in Sharm for a year, you'll love it there!! Unfortunately, I didn't smoke cigars then, so I can't help you with that.
But, wherever you do find some, be sure to haggle. Don't be rude, but be assertive. If you are respectful, and know a few arabic phrases, you stand a MUCH better chance of getting a decent price.

get your own better, all friends visiting there get their smokes from outside like dutyfree shops or so

When in Rome..(yes I know you'll be in Egypt its a saying!) ...go to a hookah bar!
