How much is a taxi in Sharm El Sheikh from resort hotels to Old Market, Naama Bay, Farsha Café, Al Sahaba Mosque, or the museum, and is there a local minibus option?

TL;DR

Most travelers in Sharm El Sheikh use hotel taxis or inDrive: expect roughly 150–300 EGP one way to Old Market, Al Sahaba Mosque, or Farsha Café, about 100–250 EGP to Naama Bay, and around 100–250 EGP to the Sharm museum depending on your hotel area. Local minibuses are cheaper, usually about 5–10 EGP per person, but they run on main roads so you may need to walk out to the hotel gate or roadside.

In Naama Bay and Old Market there are people acting as taxi coordinators on the spot: you tell them the price you want to pay and they get a taxi for you, making it easy to arrange a ride right there.

Most people go to Farsha Café and Al Sahaba Mosque by taxi, since both are in the Hadaba/Old Market area and it is easier in the evening. A typical fare is around 150–300 EGP per car one way, and for the return trip it is better to pre-arrange a driver or book through an app.

If you are heading to the Sharm museum, a taxi usually costs about 100–250 EGP depending on your hotel location. The museum is not in Old Market, so the fare can be lower if you stay closer to Naama Bay or the central part of town.

Sharm Museum — 100–250 EGP

Many travelers use inDrive for trips to Naama Bay because you can see the fare in advance and book a return car more easily. A city ride in that direction often falls in the 100–250 EGP range depending on distance and time of day.
