ok let's talk little bit about : Egypt Transportation

Tourists have many forms of transport available to navigate the cities of Egypt, though most will not use many of them. In fact, many western tourists visiting Egypt for the first time may never stray away from the buses or other vehicles provided by their tour operator, other than perhaps to take a short ride in a horse drawn carriage (a hantoor).

 If they do venture off on their own, they are most likely to use one of the air-conditioned private cars offered at most upscale hotels, which are expensive by Egyptian standards but not really compared to western taxis.




However, more savvy travelers, and particularly those on more of a budget, will also utilize the more common cabs available in most major Egyptian cities.

In Cairo, these are the thousands of cars running about that are painted black and white, though this color scheme is different in different cities (Taxi) . They are not air-conditioned, and their state of repair can vary considerably from car to car. They also contain no meter and, while one might negotiate with the cab driver prior to taking such a cab, most people who are adequately familiar with them simply know how much is expected given the distance one is wishing to travel and the prevailing traffic conditions.

That can be a bit daunting for some tourists who lack experience with these cabs. However, the benefit of these cabs is that they are extremely inexpensive.

One can travel clear across Cairo for little more than it would cost simply to step into a cab in New York.

Other forms of transportation include mini-buses and normal sized buses, though tourists would rarely use these. They are mostly used by locals to get around town very cheaply, though ex-pats
and some very knowledgeable tourists might occasionally use these as well. In some other cities, there are also a few tram systems.
