💶 Hurghada Airport Transfer Guide: Prices — What to Expect

Prices at the airport aren’t standardized.

They can change based on:

• time of day
• demand
• driver negotiation
• whether you’re a tourist or local
• distance to your resort

Because the price isn’t always agreed clearly before the trip, many tourists end up paying more than necessary.

With private transfers, the total is:

✔ agreed in advance
✔ per vehicle, not per person
✔ includes fuel & driver service
✔ no extra fees when you arrive

That peace of mind is the main reason many travelers choose to pre-book instead of negotiating at the curb.

👉 You can see examples on our
Hurghada airport transfer price list

✔ Fixed Price

You know the total cost before you land — no arguments, no surprises.

✔ Meet & Greet at Arrivals + Flight Monitoring
