How do you get from Nabq or Albatros-area hotels to Naama Bay or Old Market in Sharm El Sheikh, and do hotels provide shuttles?

TL;DR

Tourists staying in this area usually reach Naama Bay by taxi: in September 2026 the ride cost about US$3–4. In July 2026 the reception of one hotel mentioned a bus to Naama Bay at US$3 per person, but only between 9 pm and 11 pm, and that hotel ran no regular town shuttles — just a twice-weekly trip to a show on Tall Avenue. From the Albatros hotel that hosts the show, Old Market was about a US$1 taxi ride or roughly a 20-minute walk, according to tourists in June 2026.

According to a July 2026 review, one hotel offers no regular town shuttles. Instead, twice a week it takes guests to Tall Avenue for the Sunrise Festival show, whose theme changes from night to night. The reviewer described the in-hotel entertainment as sluggish.

To save on taxis to Naama Bay, travelers look for companions among guests of their hotel: in July 2026 a couple offered to share a Tuesday-evening ride to Naama Bay and split the fare.

In June 2026 a guest staying in the Nabq area was told that the Albatros hotel hosting the show is a 20–30 minute drive each way, and that transport to the show is apparently free. After the show you can stay and walk around Old Market: from the show hotel a taxi costs about US$1, or it is roughly a 20-minute walk.
