Taba Travel Forum

I've been unable to find a bus schedule between Cairo and Taba. I would appreciate any info anyone could provide including the name of the bus company, their phone number, time of departure from Cairo, time of arrival to Taba. Also, how much would a cab cost? Would it be a better deal for two travelers? Thanks!

There is regular service. It is not easy to get the schedule on the net, but if memory serves me well the information below should be accurate. Around Tahir Square there are several travel agencies ;which run service to the East Sinai coast. you can also take the bus service to Nueiba and get a shared service taxi for about 10-15 dollars to Taba.

East Delta Bus Company runs regular buses from Cairo to Taba and Nuweiba. The bus leaves Cairo at around 06:15, 09:15 and 21:15 from Torgamon Bus Station in Cairo then goes to Abbaseya Bus Station and then to Al Mazhar Bus Station before heading out of Cairo to Taba and Nuweiba. The cost is LE 70-75 depending on which time, and it takes about 5 1/2 - 6 hours for the journey across the Sinai. I understand that you canNOT pre-book (just show up, I guess), though if you want to phone ahead, their number (not sure if this is in Cairo or Nuweiba) is 0020 69 353-0250.
