Which taxi app works in Hurghada if Uber or InDrive isn't available?

If you plan to use InDrive in Egypt, app registration is tied to a local Egyptian SIM number. Travelers suggest getting an eSIM; if your phone doesn't support eSIM, Orange isn't recommended for InDrive registration (though it worked fine for one traveler in November). Other carrier options include We and Etisalat, but it's unclear which works best for InDrive.

One traveler shares experience using the taxi app (Drivee, based on the thread context) for both airport transfers and rides around Hurghada: overall satisfactory, though cars aren't business class and can be a bit worn. A plus is that the app automatically tracks your flight, unlike another taxi service that bombarded them with questions about exact arrival time and terminal.

Some travelers report using a different taxi app altogether (not Drivee or InDrive), though the exact name wasn't specified — worth comparing a couple of options once you arrive.

Taxi and tour prices in Egypt rise noticeably in October during high season — expect steeper fares than in off-season months.

InDrive frequently doesn't work with Russian phone numbers in Egypt — travelers recommend downloading the Drivee app instead, which works reliably.

To check real taxi prices in Egypt through the app before your trip, turn off your phone's location services. Once you actually land in Egypt, remember to turn it back on, otherwise you won't be able to book a ride.
