1. In Egypt, it is customary to bargain. The cost, taxi drivers, is usually called 3-4 times higher.
2. Once I saw a sticker on the visor:
Landing - 10 pounds
1 km - 9 pounds.
Whether these prices are actual - I do not know. They have taximeters, but I have never seen them turn it on.

ABC taxi will call you back - the price on the meter is very sane. When we go to Egypt on our own, I use it. I'm satisfied. There are Russian-speaking drivers.

Be sure to bargain, the easiest way is to get acquainted with the staff of the bar and the reception, and they will be interested in how much a taxi will cost to the point of interest, and dance from this amount when you bargain with the driver. In December, we rode to the fish market after El Mina (about 3-4 km) for 20 pounds, from the start we wanted 50-40 pounds.
In El Gouna from "King Tut" for 10 bucks there + waiting 3 hours + 10 bucks back + 4 bucks for tea, the driver got caught. local, in the evenings, they are clogged to the eyeballs, and often with children who traveled, he will remember how crowded they are.

Bargaining is a must. A distance of about 7-8 km can be traveled for $3-4. What I noticed this time is not only the distance, but also the status of the place from where and where you are going

"Usually called with an overestimation of 3-4 times" - wow, harsh!
How I hate bargaining. But what to do, such a country.
