Airport Overview:
At present, just one terminal called Terminal 2. The arrivals building is
unusual in that on exiting customs, you end up on the street, with no facilities
for bus, taxi nor car rental immediately obvious. This is clearly not an airport
with the independant traveller in mind: most passengers are met by reps and
herded to the appropriate bus. A new terminal is under construction and should
be open later in 2006.
| By Taxi: | |
| General: | Taxis are not right outside the terminal. If you start to walk across the car park outside arrivals, you will be approached by taxi drivers, who will offer to take you to your hotel for an outrageously inflated price. Much argument and walking away will be required to obtain a realistic price. Due to the current rates of exchange, taxi drivers are not keen to be paid in Egyptian pounds, but prefer US Dollars, Euros or British Pounds. |
| Approximate costs: | To the nearby hotels, eg Conrad Hotel or Baron Resort EŁ35-40/5 mins. Always agree a price before setting off!! Blue and White taxis are the only ones that are allowed to go into the town centre of Naama Bay. Official rates to Naama bay are EGP 20-35, and to downtown Sharm-el-Sheikh EGP 40, but do not expect to pay these prices. |
