Private driver in Hurghada
A private driver in Hurghada means a car and a driver just for you, by the hour, for the day, or for a long road trip to Luxor, Cairo, Marsa Alam or El Gouna. The times and the stops are yours. The service is run by Hurghada Habibi, our partner on the ground, and the price is agreed before you set off.
By the hour or for the day
By the hour for a single trip (dinner in El Gouna, an appointment, some shopping), for the day when you want several stops without watching the clock; tell us the plan and we'll suggest the right option.
A sample day: morning in the El Dahar souk, lunch at the Marina, afternoon in El Gouna, back at sunset. Four places, zero taxi haggling.
Luxor with your own driver
About 290 km, roughly four hours each way: with a private driver you choose when to leave and how long to spend at each site, so you can linger at Karnak or in the Valley of the Kings.
Cairo and the pyramids, privately
About 480 km, 5 to 7 hours each way: in private, the car waits at every stop and you set the pace of the day; price on request.
Marsa Alam, Abu Dabbab and the south
Abu Dabbab bay is about 245 km away and Marsa Alam about 277 km: a private driver lets you leave when it suits you and stop on the way.
El Gouna for the evening
El Gouna is about half an hour from central Hurghada; for dinner at Abu Tig Marina, book the return with the outward trip and the driver comes back for you at the agreed time.
Just visiting for the evening? Entry to El Gouna for non-residents is authorised the day before, with a photo of everyone's ID. Send us the photos along with your car booking and we'll handle both.
How to book
Send us the date, pick-up time, number of people and the plan, and we reply with a price fixed before departure.
The more precise your message, the faster the answer: "Saturday, 4 people, 9am from Sakkala, El Gouna then back at 11pm" beats "a driver on Saturday".
