Taxi?!!!
Tell me, please. Do I need to require the meter to be turned on and what is the price when boarding? For example, in Dubai only!!! on the counter, no bargaining, 3 Dx upon landing. What is the difference between a counter and a trade?

there are usually no counters included. just negotiate the price before getting into the taxi. sometimes the counter is more profitable especially for short distances. it all depends on the driver and the area

Thank you!

There are meters in the taxi, but they rarely carry on them, mostly bargaining before boarding, it's Yegi there is bargaining everywhere.)))
аватар Biker_Oksana
The main thing is to behave confidently, because sometimes they make ... umm ... a face with a brick and after delivery they have the audacity to declare a higher price.
аватар Alpusechka
OK!
аватар Lina23S
Yes, confidence does not hurt there, they also tried to tell me that I owe not 5 but 50 $, honestly asked if he wanted problems and offered to resolve the issue with the tourist police, the taxi driver refused for some reason.)))
Alpusechka and which hotel you have chosen, write, I will estimate how much the fare really costs.
аватар Alpusechka
Lina23S, while I choose, rather, it will be Coral Beach Rotana.

Yes! Learn the word "Police!" in different intonations - acts like a pipe on rats from a fairy tale! :)))))))
аватар Alpusechka
Yeah, Oksana, I have known him for a long time, since I started traveling to the UAE. There it (in emergency cases of circling local machos) was pronounced in a whisper, and the effect was just that. I will adapt to Egypt, add decibels and wiggling my eyebrows !!!
аватар Biker_Oksana
By the way, this word also came in handy for me in the UAE (albeit only once): the boy-seller, who, well, already wanted to touch me by the handle, then hug me - as if scalded, he jumped behind the counter :)))))) I almost squealed with laughter: it works! I am a magician! :)))))))
аватар Alpusechka
They are very afraid there. In my theoretical opinion, more than in Egypt. The UAE is the safest country. Walk in the evening at least until 3 am alone, nothing will happen. Of course, within reason, if you look for adventures on the ass, you will have them! Or they are you.
аватар Biker_Oksana
There are many times more in the UAE than in Egypt, yes, I have already convinced myself Just like some other Arabia)))
аватар Alpusechka
Oksana, they are VERY different, Arabs and Arabs are different!

Lina, Stopped in for dessert Rose.

To the center about 5$. On a local bus, they paid 2 pounds per person.
аватар Alpusechka
Thank you. And how to use the bus? And what is it like to ride among the locals in it?
аватар ovcherenko
How much does a taxi cost from Dessole Pyramisa Sahl Hasheesh to Hurghada, write, we are going for the first time, I don’t hear well myself, so I don’t know how to behave with the Egyptians. Thank you.
аватар margusha7474
Can I count too? ))))) domina coral bay. how far to soho? Naama? Il Mercato? I hope very much for your help! since the hotel does not have a free bus, but I really want to go to these places !!! And one more thing: the price does not depend on the time of day? Thank you!!!!
аватар ksuhsenka
Alpusechka Leave the hotel and these buses stop by the roadway. Discuss immediately where to go and the cost (for example, Sakala, that pound for persons), if the driver agrees, then get into the bus and go. It takes about half an hour to drive from Desert Rose by bus, 10 minutes by taxi. Of course, I didn’t go alone in a minibus)), I went with a friend, there is even a certain flavor in this, no one clung, but it was scary. Clothing should be non-provocative, closed. Together, and preferably three or more, you can safely go.

Alpusechka to Sheroton 20 pounds, to Senzo Mall 5 pounds or 15 minutes on foot, if you cross the road from the hotel and go right, the first turn to the left you will reach the path to another road (across the road you will see the Pikalbatros Alf Leila hotel) cross the road to the hotel and go right you will see that the road goes to the left, go along it and you will reach directly to Senzo Mol. It is better to ride a local bus with a company, the extreme is still the same.
аватар Lina23S
Ovcherenko Yes, you will have to pay at least 50-60 pounds for a taxi to Sheroton, 20-25 pounds to Senzo Mall. Find out if the hotel organizes transfers to Hurghada and it will be more economical.
аватар Lina23S
Margusha7474 I'm sorry, I don't know Sharm as well as Hurghada, but for the price you can ask the hotel guide you will represent the big picture, although they often overestimate the cost of a taxi, so bargain.
аватар ksuhsenka
Another thing I can say is that having agreed on a price, money must be given without change, otherwise you risk simply not getting it.
аватар margusha7474
thank you for not refusing))) I communicate with hotel guides only on the day of arrival and on the eve of departure. they are somehow muddy and there is no sense from them .... okay, I’m guided by the terrain or I’ll ask tourists)))))
аватар Alpusechka
Thanks everyone!!!
аватар ovcherenko
Lina, to Sheroton not less than 50-60lbs, to Senzo Mol 20-25lbs - is this the price for 1 person? and if there are 5 people in a taxi, do we have to pay for each or is it the total fare? And I also don’t know the city, according to you, Sheraton (is this the main street of Hurghada?) Further Senzo Mol (what is it?)? We are going for the first time, so I don’t know. Thank you.
аватар Alpusechka
ovcherenko, wrote to you in a personal
аватар Lina23S
Price per car)) Senzo Mall The new shopping and entertainment complex of Hurghada (territorially located approximately in the middle between your hotel and the city) is open daily from 10 am to 1 am. Supermarket, shops, cafes, restaurants, cinema banks .... Sheraton is the main tourist street of Hurghada.

Lina, on the Pegasus website from the Pyramisa hotel, the following information is provided: The approximate cost of a taxi to Hurghada is $ 35 round trip (the maximum waiting time in Hurghada is 3 hours), $ 25 one way. There is a bus from the hotel to the center of Hurghada: the approximate cost is $ 10 per person (round trip: 10:00 / 13:00, 18:00 / 21:00, children under 6 years old are free). You are talking about pounds, but there in dollars, where is the savings?
аватар Lina23S
Yes, it’s cool that Pegasus set the prices, firstly, double-check the information at the hotel reception, and secondly, if the prices are confirmed, make sure that there are no other taxis near the hotel gates that carry at normal prices and don’t forget to bargain, no money is paid in advance upon arrival.
