TL;DR
Private transfer prices mentioned for Sharm el-Sheikh were about USD 10 for rides across town. A hotel-arranged family sedan was quoted at EUR 40 or USD 50 one-way, while an inDrive ride from Sharm to Dahab showed around EGP 500, with EGP 1,000 likely improving your chances of getting a driver quickly.
A tour operator quoted a group transfer at 3500 RUB per person (10500 RUB for a family of three), which the traveler declined. Instead, they booked an individual transfer themselves for $10 (a 2021 Toyota Corolla sedan). Tip: you can ask the driver to share mobile internet/wifi and give $1-2 as a tip.
An inDrive ride from the Hadaba area to Naama Bay (about 10 km) cost $5. From a hotel to Naama Bay (about 20 km) they suggest budgeting around $10.
For a Sharm-to-Dahab trip, inDrive was showing roughly EGP 500. If you want to leave sooner and increase the chance of finding a driver, offering up to EGP 1,000 may help.
One practical way to book a private transfer is through your hotel: travelers reported that hotels can share a driver contact or arrange the car directly.
A family sedan arranged through a hotel was quoted at EUR 40 or USD 50 one-way. That gives a useful benchmark for a private car rather than a shared shuttle.
For a standard ride within Sharm el-Sheikh, travelers mentioned about USD 10 to reach any point in town.
