This was a fun and interesting shopping tour. Jamal took us to the inner souks and gave us haggling advice, which proved to be useful for our little shopping. It was great that he showed us around without trying to direct us to any certain shops. Also, because there were only the 2 of us in the group, Jamal also modified the route to end at the nearest location to our riad. Nice!
