Question 4

What kind of rental car should I get for Cairo?

Accepted Answer

Nothing says living it up like a road trip, especially when you're going somewhere as exciting as Cairo. With big-name sights like Giza Pyramid Complex and Great Sphinx of Giza, there's so much to see and so little time. That's where a rental car will help. You'll be able to travel to many more places — but opt for something small for easy city driving, like an economy car. If you're not willing to cruise around those bustling streets, Giza Governorate abounds with natural wonders. Trade the zippy car for something bigger, like an SUV, and discover the glorious cliffs.

Question 5

Should I get a luxury rental car in Cairo?

Accepted Answer

You'll be glad to know that there's an impressive variety of luxury rental vehicles in Cairo. What you go with depends on how much you want to spend and the activities you've got planned. Specialty and prestige vehicles often spare no expense when it comes to comfort and class. If you want to indulge yourself, why not grab a high-end SUV, or perhaps an upmarket medium-sized vehicle? Alternatively, if you just need a car to get you around town as efficiently as possible, maybe go for a budget compact vehicle (or something else that won't blow your budget).

Question 6

Is it difficult to park in Cairo?

Accepted Answer

Finding a car space in downtown Cairo can be tricky at times. If you're heading into the city center, research your options before you leave to avoid endlessly driving around the block.

Question 7

Does Cairo have peak-hour traffic?

Accepted Answer

Cairo has a population of around 7,734,600, so you're likely to experience congested roads at some stage. For an easier journey, avoid driving in the peak times before and after work — especially on major roads.

Question 8

What happens if I get a speeding fine while driving a rental car in Giza Governorate?

Accepted Answer

Most of the time, your chosen rental car company will charge the amount of the fine to your credit card. Alternatively, the company may provide your contact details to the relevant local law enforcement agency so they can send a fine to you directly.
