What the community said
Used the Uber app again in Hurghada this year — convenient, you can switch the interface to your language, and the price is fixed upfront like in any standard taxi app.

Some travelers note that unlike certain local taxi drivers in Egypt, ride-hailing apps back home never demand extra payment beyond the app price.

If a street taxi driver tries to overcharge on the spot, the advice is to call an Uber instead — the price is locked in the app and payment happens only after you exit the car.
