My next adventure: Tbilisi (Georgia) – May 2026

Day 1 (Cairo) – Wheelchair Accessible Transportation

Egypt and its capital, Cairo, has long been a staple of Northern Africa and, indeed the world. This is due to, in the main, the country being home to one of the Seven Wonders of The Ancient World, The Great Pyramids of Giza. As a result, an unfathomable amount of operators offer tours to this historical country. This does extend to tours specifically designed for wheelchair users, however, it is likely that one will pay an added premium due to the limited amount of operators offering this. Granted, if one wishes for a completely hassle free trip, this option may suit. However, for those who wish to visit Cairo on a (lesser!) budget, the following blog posts will hopefully demonstrate how.

For the 10.5 million inhabitants of Cairo, a number of London Black Cabs roam the city thanks to London Cab Egypt. Naturally, these vehicles are wheelchair accessible to the UK standard. When booking a ride through the website, an option is available to request a vehicle equipped with a ramp, it’s as simple as that!

An one way journey from Cairo International Airport to the city centre costs just over £30 as of February 2026. However, it is worth noting that if one flies into T2 especially, the craziness of the terminal exterior can be likened to an Indian airport.

Akin to the vehicles found in Azerbaijan, it is possible to hire a Black Cab for between 2 – 8 hours for a flat fee, perfect for exploring the sights or an Giza excursion.
