To compare, SIXT offers ride by local drivers booked online, prepaid at USD25. Our private tour provider Misr is USD35. The St. Regis is USD100 for an Opal or USD140 for a Benz…
I'm glad that you enjoyed your stay in Egypt... I do hope that you meant EGP (Egyptian Pounds) and not GBP (British Pound Sterling) because the inverse would mean that you were taken for a ride.
