Im worried about going to Egypt (self.travel)

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!

Oman was nice. As middle eastern countries go, it was by far the most pleasant of the trip, and I'd put it up there with the best port visits we had.

Thanks for the tip, will have to definitely plan a visit there.
