Where do I get the taxi from?

You can find many official and unofficial taxi services just outside the Hurghada Airport terminals. It’s important that you don’t accept any rides from drivers approaching you in the Arrivals Hall, as taxi scams are common.

Convenience

Though there are plenty of taxis outside of the Arrivals Hall at Hurghada International Airport, it can be quite a stressful process to get one. The airport can be quite busy. Then, you may need to negotiate your fare with your driver which can cause anxiety. If you’d rather skip the taxi queue and start your trip more relaxed, we recommend booking an airport transfer instead.

Editor’s Note

Great for a comfortable travel solution on demand.

Useful Tips

Egypt is still predominantly a cash-based country, so make sure you have cash on you (including small bills) to pay your driver.

Though tipping your taxi driver isn't required in Egypt, it is customary to give a small tip or round up if you received excellent service.

As there are no set prices for trips, make sure you agree on one before setting off.

We recommend writing down your destination address to help ease communication.
