Im worried about going to Egypt (lemmy.world)

I want to go to Egypt, Cairo specifically, but I hate people getting all up in my face.

I've been to places where they approach you and bother you but will leave it you tell them you are not interested. I heard in Egypt they will insist even after you tell them to go away and I'm worried I will end up headbutting some Egyptian seller/scammer and get into very serious problems.

Should I not go?

People in Morocco were more exhausting than Cairo in my opinion. Jordan or Oman probably the most relaxed.

Jordan is definitely the easier choice. But interesting! Didn't know Oman is also an easier destination!

I've travelled in Oman, it's a wonderful place. We hired a 4x4 and roof tent and travelled all over, we met with zero hassle and nothing but kindness. It's an amazing country. I'd recommend it anytime. I'd go back in a heartbeat.

It does look like the destination has nothing but good recommendations. Thanks for your input!
