Car Rental in Alexandria

Convertible rental in Alexandria

The most widespread cabriolet models offered for rent in Egypt are: BMW 3 series Cabriolet, Peugeot 206 Cabriolet, Renault Megane Cabriolet and Ford Mustang Convertible.

At the booking time, please check the rental conditions carefully. Quite often, rental offices in Alexandria require two credit cards to guarantee issuance of a cabrio or a roadster.

We recommend ordering additional no-excess insurance that covers your risk (franchise), since the franchise amount for cabriolets in Egypt is quite high.

Make sure to inspect the rental invoice issued at the office in Alexandria and compare it with the information indicated in your voucher. Sometimes, rental officers make 'unintentional' mistakes in rental invoices.

In parking garage, examine the vehicle for defects and scratches carefully. If you find any of them, check whether they have been specified in your rental document.

When parking a cabriolet in Alexandria, it is recommended to unfold the roof and close windows in order to prevent theft or robbery.

Driving Advices for Egypt – Traffic Regulations and Road Usage Peculiarities
Previous hints
If several dozen pedestrians are not considered an obstacle by local drivers, their attitude to pets is quite different. For example, if a herd of goats or a pedestrian with a camel wants to cross the road in a small town, there is no doubt that the whole flow of cars will stop immediately.
According to local traffic regulations, the vehicle must necessarily be equipped with a fully staffed first aid kit and a warning triangle. The implementation of this rule is strictly monitored, and every car can be stopped in order to check the presence of the abovementioned devices. Failure to meet the requirement might result in suspension of the driving license for several months!
The local police have the right to charge fines right on the spot. Foreign drivers will be pleased with quite a nice "bonus" – if you pay the fine on the spot, its amount will be reduced by half.

Enjoying sights of Alexandria in cabriolet
The city is prominent for its gorgeous religious sites. The beautiful mosque of Abu al-Abbas al-Mursi is an excellent confirmation of the fact that there are interesting temples in the city. Everything is beautiful here, both on the outside and the inside. The building is surrounded by colorful residences and greenery. Another interesting place of worship is the El Qaed Ibrahim Mosque. It is one of the most recognizable sights of Alexandria. It was built in the year 1948 by the architect called Mario Rossi. The building impresses everyone with its architecture. On the other hand, the interior decoration can also amaze an inexperienced tourist. One cannot help but mention the St. Mark’s Coptic Orthodox Cathedral, a monumental building which has also a historical value.

There are many wonderful sculptures in the city. Among them you should see Serapéion, which is next to Pompey’s Pillar and stands out as a monument to an unknown sea soldier. It is erected in memory of those whose permanent residence became the sea after their death. You will find the structure near the marine base. Pompey’s Pillar telling about the ancient times, rises like a warning tower of the city, which gives a signal to Serapéion. In his turn, Serapéion will defend the city when it is needed. The monument was built on the site of the Serapeum of Alexandria which was destroyed at the end of the 4th century.
