Transfers

NO road down there

I think HUrghada Temple in El Kawser is 200 EGP per night for a 2 bed apartment

NO road or street lighting there yet - this is next to an apartment where I visited many times.

There are better locations.

I know that only too well Dave.. but Hurghada Temple is quite nice inside and has some decent facilities.

Still need a torch I think

Still need a torch I think - and I doubt those high heals will be any use walking down the "access road".

This area is due for road works but still some time off I think.

Hi Phil it should not cost you more than £8 each way. There will be plenty of taxis to greet you!!! and hold onto your luggage as the Egyptians will want to take it to your car when you are capable of doing it yourself and then the tipping hand comes out! Suggest you take a few £1 coins with you to start you off until you get LE. We tend to tip £1 a go eg to porter etc in hotel. Geocities do Hurghada hotel transfers prices are
1 person 12 USD one way ( £6 )
2/3 person $5 per person each way ( £2.50 )
4 or more person $4 per person each way ( £2 )
So may be worth booking online. They confirm 3 days before you arrive and you pay on arrival.
!st child also goes free.
For anyone else interested they also do transfers to El Ghouna, Safaga, Makadi and Marsa Alam.

Promotional

Hi Lyndsay,

You will find the forum does not allow any promotional literature if you are an agent all this type of promotional stuff has to go into the other sections on the forum.
If you are unsure and you wan to provide anyone with a website address please private message them,this will stop your post from being removed.
There are a lot of agents who pay for the premiun service for eg selling aproperty etc.
Hope this clears the matter up for you.

When taking taxis always remember to ask the price BEFORE you travel and check its in Egyptian pounds. A favorite trick is to quote you in 'pounds', you think its Egyptian and when you reach your destination they say 'English pounds'. Hey presto 10% increase in the price!

 

[dave99]

more like 10 times the price
