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?

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!
