Questions about transfers and day tours in Egypt
How booking works, what to send for an airport pickup, which vehicle fits your group and how tour prices are set. Can’t find your answer? Ask us on WhatsApp.
Booking and payment
How do I book a transfer or a tour?
Send a request with the booking form or on a tour page. The form prepares a WhatsApp message with your details. We reply with availability and the price, and your ride is booked once you accept and we confirm it in writing.
Is my ride booked when I send a request?
No. A request starts the conversation. We reply with availability and a quote, and the ride or tour is confirmed only when we confirm it in writing.
How do I pay?
Nothing is paid on this website. Payment details are agreed with our team when we confirm your ride or tour.
How much does a private transfer cost?
It depends on the route, vehicle, date and time, so we quote each request individually. You see the price before you decide.
Can I change my request after sending it?
Yes. Reply in the same WhatsApp chat with the changes and we’ll update the quote.
How will you reply?
On WhatsApp, to the number you send the request from. If you prefer email, add your address in the form and say so in the notes.
Airport transfers
Which airports do you cover?
We’re most often asked for Cairo, Luxor, Aswan and Hurghada airports. For any other airport, send your route and we’ll tell you if we can help. See Destinations.
What should I include for an airport pickup?
Your flight number, arrival date and landing time, and the hotel or address you’re going to. The booking form has fields for all of these, so the pickup can be planned around your arrival.
Can you take us from the airport to a Nile cruise boat?
Yes. Put the cruise boat as the drop-off in your request, as you would a hotel.
Can I book the return trip to the airport at the same time?
Yes. Choose “Return trip” in the form and add the date and time for the way back.
Vehicles and luggage
Which vehicle do I need?
A sedan takes up to 3 passengers and 3 bags, an SUV 5 and 5, a minivan 7 and 7, and the Coaster bus 22 and 22. The booking form checks your passengers and luggage and marks the vehicles that fit. Compare them on the Fleet page.
Is the ride shared with other passengers?
No. Every ride is private: just you, your group and the driver. All vehicles are air-conditioned.
We’re a large group. Can you help?
Yes. The Coaster bus carries up to 22 passengers with their luggage. For more than that, send a group request with your exact numbers and we’ll reply with the options for your date.
Can we make stops on the way?
Yes. Add the stops you’d like in the notes of your request and we’ll include them in the quote.
Day tours
How are day tour prices calculated?
Tour prices are per person in US dollars and depend on the size of your group and the date — the bigger the group, the lower the price per person. Each tour page shows the full price table, and the booking form there calculates the total for your date and group.
Is hotel pickup included?
Yes. Every day tour starts and ends at your hotel, and many also pick up from Nile cruise boats. Each tour page says where pickup is from.
What is included in a tour?
It depends on the tour; each tour page lists what’s included and what isn’t. Guided temple tours usually include a private Egyptologist guide, entrance fees for the sites in the itinerary and lunch. Tips are not included.
Which day tours do you offer?
In Luxor: the West Bank, the East Bank, both banks in one day, Dendera and Abydos, the Karnak sound and light show, a hot air balloon ride and a day trip to Aswan. From Hurghada: private or boat snorkeling trips, a desert quad safari, and day trips to Cairo and the pyramids by plane. See all day tours.
Can a group larger than 16 book a tour?
Yes. Tour prices are listed for groups of up to 16. For larger groups, send a request and we’ll reply with a price.
Areas and routes
Where do you operate?
Cairo and Giza, Luxor, Aswan and Hurghada, and road journeys between them, such as Hurghada to Luxor or Luxor to Aswan.
Do you cover my route?
Send it through the booking form or on WhatsApp and we’ll tell you. See Destinations for the areas we’re asked about most.
