And with fuel as cheap as AUD $0.20 per litre, a rental car is not only convenient but also a very cost effective way of getting around. Auto Europe offers several pick up locations and a large rental car fleet, so finding a car rental in Egypt is both easy and economical.

Travelling in Egypt with a Car Rental

Most visitors to Egypt will arrive into Cairo, the capital and also the largest city in the country. You can pick up your hire car at the airport, or downtown, and head off to see the sights. While in Cairo, be sure to check out the Egyptian Museum, home to thousands of artefacts, including the mask and sarcophagus of Tutankhamun. Drive your rental car to the western edge of the city, and here you can see the famous Pyramids of Giza, as well as the Sphinx. Definitely a must do for anyone visiting the area.

After seeing the sights of Cairo, head northwest in your hire car and visit the city of Alexandria. Located on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea, Alexandria is the place most Egyptians go for a weekend getaway. Excellent museums and historic sites are found throughout the city, and there are loads of activities to take part in on the water. While in Alexandria, visit the Citadel of Qaitbay, found on the coastline, at the site where the world famous Alexandria Lighthouse once stood. The citadel is a fort built in the 15th century and a magnificent sight indeed.

Drive south of from Alexandria and Cairo and visit the city of Luxor, home to many of Egypt’s famous attractions. Head a little west of Luxor, and check out the Valley of the Kings. Once the burial place for Egyptian royalty, the valley has many tombs into which visitors can go and see the amazing hieroglyphics and chambers carved into the hills. Also near Luxor are the Tombs of the Nobles, another site featuring burial places of powerful individuals during ancient times.
