How to get from your hotel in Sahl Hasheesh to Senzo Mall or the old town by taxi?

Based on 2 discussions with 4 participants · Last activity: 2 days ago

TL;DR

InDrive taxi to Senzo Mall costs from $2; choosing the premium tariff and adding 50 EGP on top gets you a faster pickup. The old town and Mango shop are a 20-30 minute walk, but taxi drivers often take a longer route.

What the community said

Walking from the hotel to the old town and the Mango shop takes longer than it seems — realistically about 25-30 minutes at a normal pace, not 10-15 as sometimes claimed.

Exit the hotel, turn right at the chess board landmark, and walk straight to reach the old town and Mango shop — but taxi drivers reportedly take a longer route on purpose so they don't have to walk back for the next customer.
