It is better to use the search on the site and not click on the "send" button ten times.

What you, however, the original! It would be better if instead of a claim they threw off a link to a similar question with answers.

there are counters at the airport, there are branded stores in any tourist places, sometimes it is found right in front of the hotel. It's at reasonable prices.
More expensive will be in hotels and guides.
tariffs (vodafone, orange, etisalat) are approximately the same, +/- 1-2 c.u. The connection is also stable for everyone in the same way, for mail, instant messengers and photos, the difference is not felt. Vodafone is sold according to the passport (xered), I don’t know the rest.

It's easier at the airport or in special stores, any operator, it's better not to take it at the hotel, it's much more expensive.

I always used Vodofon, just opposite the hotel there is a company store, they check my passport, the connection is stable - both in the room and in the sea on the yacht. We take 10 gigs + a bonus SIM card for local calls. who flies soon or throw out.
аватар Alex714
We take 10 gigs for a family, we activate one smart as an access point, we connect the rest to it. dependent.
Threat as a bonus, if there is traffic left - on the day of departure, it's not boring at the airport.

Vodafone or orange, but only at the airport, it's cheaper there, even cheaper than in the vodafone salon in Naama

water supply and NOT at the airport, but where in case of fraud it is easier to make a claim.
аватар maxud
I took everything at the airport without problems
I took it in the salon, an order of magnitude more expensive if you take into account the prices on the operator's website
At the airport, only the Internet is sold, if you need voice calls, then it’s better to drive up to the salon
Airport rates in April 2018
5$-4gb
6$-6gb
12-14$-12gb
In salon 6$-4gb
Outdoors from 7$-2.2GB
4g appeared on vodafone but still no speed, Ukrainian 3g is even faster.

The last time I visited EG, I took myself Orange and my wife Vodafone.
Both operators worked flawlessly.
Sometimes Vodafone fell off, but not for long.
As for me, take the one where there will be less queue at the airport))

We rested in April. They took Vodafone at the airport 4 GB - 5 USD, the queue was long. Walking went into the special. shop card purchase only in egypt. pounds, cheaper and without a queue. (We rested in the Hadaba area).
Have a good rest.

Orange is better. To buy at the airport at the exit of the building on the left there are racks with sellers. Minimum 5 tanks and 4 GB -4G . Sellers will activate you if you don't by yourself
аватар Shev37
Yes, the most important thing is not to rush, there may be a queue and the guides start urging everyone to go to the buses. Feel free to send them to .... and do your thing
аватар maxud
Only my friend so forgot the bus at the airport
аватар mashka_888
Fine????
аватар Shev37
maxud, I'm very sorry, but I don't believe it. Until the bus guide counts all the number of tourists on the list who should go to a particular hotel, he will run around the airport like a stung. It needs to be well hidden. And even if this happened, it's okay, find your tour operator's guide at the airport and inform him that they are goats and I think they will decide. However, disassembly with guides is still that crap, it is better not to bring it to this. Mashka_888, if you are standing in line for a map and there is a running guide nearby, tell him that until you buy you will not leave the airport, let them wait. And then let him try to lose the tourist after that ... And also let the husband or partner, girlfriend go to the bus and not let him leave without you

Thanks for the advice, it's my first time going on vacation abroad)

Well the fact is the fact
More advice
One person can buy SIM cards, even for the crowd, but only foreign passports are needed. Therefore, you can leave your husband and keep the defense on the bus yourself.

We bought orange in the store for 7 ye enough for all 10 days still left Let the seller activate it in front of you because they receive SMS confirmation in Arabic
аватар viktor_12365
Tell me, at the airport, when buying a SIM card, do you need to pay in pounds? Do they take dollars?
аватар maxud
They take everything, prices in $ are indicated for SIM cards
But if you want pounds, then rather the rate will be calculated 1 $ -15 pounds, and the real one is 17.5
аватар viktor_12365
Thanks

Tried etisalate - poor coverage. Last year they took vodafone - much better, but you can’t call on viber
аватар oleg0502
And what kind of sim card? Micro or nano?
аватар maxud
There you will be made in any format
аватар BlackAlex
Decided to try Orange - disaster. The guy at the airport did not transfer the package to the Internet - as a result, for $ 3 I only calls within Egypt. There are very few offices in Sharm, it makes no sense to spend $7-10 on a taxi to fix a $3 card. There are plenty of vodafones on every corner, in general, orange refuse forever.
Yes, near the hotel they offered 2.5 Giga for 8 bucks, against 3 bass for 3 gig at the Airport. Draw your own conclusions.

Who bought a SIM card at the airport? How long does it take to set up a SIM card?
аватар BlackAlex
set up on the spot, and it becomes active somewhere in 0.5-1 hour.
