Transportation – Egypt Travel Alerts

Certain rules have to be respected while riding any form of transportation, such as trains, buses, and boats. If there are seat belts, we expect our travelers to use them at all times. If a motorbike taxi is optional, then you should be careful and consider the risk, check the driver’s driving license, & the terms of their travel insurance in case of motorbike injuries.

We choose the most suitable means of transportation that best matches the destination our guests are going to. The safety level of the vehicle itself will be rated to ensure a secure, comfortable journey.
