So how much does a taxi cost in Egypt (in Sharm) if you go to Naama Bay?
everywhere they write in reviews about how taxi drivers are deceiving, but they did not find a specific cost. We are going to Egypt for the first time in the Sheraton Main Resort, I would like to understand how much a taxi to Naama Bay will cost from there?
thanks for answers

I don’t know where this hotel is located, but we didn’t give more than 4 dollars! From the old city to naama they calmly drove for 3 dollars. In general, it all depends on your ability to bargain. Do you know how? get there for $2.

Agree first! and then go, but give money ONLY after you get out of the taxi and take your money. When we were in Sunrise, it’s in the other direction from the airport, then in the minibus doahpdi for 15 pounds, not three to the old city, and back from Naama Bay in a taxi for 50, and even that seemed a little to the taxi driver. But the main thing is to stand your ground and everything will be fine!

Always different. Once we pretended to be Italians and drove to Naama for 20 pounds from Savoy (Ibid Sunrise, Sierra). And one early morning there was nowhere to exchange dollars and we persuaded a taxi driver to take us from the Old Market to Savoy for $ 2 and 2-3 pounds, there were no more change. On average, they did not pay more than 30 pounds. Bargain.

Why such wild prices? Prices maximum 2 dollars, i.e. 10 pounds from any place from the second line to Naami Bay. Our friend agreed for 1 dollar, but upon arrival the drivers were more, as much as 2 (!) Dollars, he stood his ground and got a wonderful "concert ".

From Sharm to the Old Town (Naami is a little closer) if it is $ 8 by taxi, and if by car like a minibus it is $ 5. I don’t know where you can go for $ 2 if from Sharm to Naami 35 km.

The most important thing is: 1. Negotiate a price before you get into the car; 2. Bargain with all your might (the original price can be "brought down" at least twice). Well, on account of the fact that in their answers everyone names different prices, this just indicates the ability (or inability) to bargain.

Completely agree with the last responder. Negotiate the price - before boarding, pay only after arrival on the spot. When "concerts " begin (like they want more), we very often frightened them with the tourist police ...

Sheraton is located 5 km from Naama Bay. I don’t understand at all where such distances of 35 km come from? In general, those who do not mind the money pay $ 5-10))

Depending on the distance from the hotel to the city, our hotel was near the airport, we paid from $ 5 to $ 7

I agree that you need to bargain with a taxi driver, and therefore the difference in price between trips, who agrees to "throw " how much. In general, you need to bargain with them, be sure to agree on a price before boarding and pay after disembarking. Moreover, they have transport now all new and they deliver to the right place very quickly.

Gasoline costs about 1 hryvnia-liter, so count. Bargain brutally

Sheraton is a good hotel! There will certainly be a shuttle bass, i.e. free all day bus to Naama Bay. But as for me, there is nothing to catch in this entertainment quarter, just go to buy souvenirs
