Beware! I did not get picked up by my driver in Cairo. I would not recommend this service at all. I called, and spoke to my driver Ahmed, when I was going through customs at Cairo airport, telling him I had landed. He said he thought I would be about 30 minutes. I was quicker than that so when he wasn’t there I thought he was thinking I was delayed in customs. I called him about 5 times but his phone was turned off. I walked up and down looking for my name for about 45 minutes, constantly fending off taxi drivers who wanted my fare. After almost an hour of waiting and texts and calls to Ahmed, then finally telling him I would be leaving. I had no response.
As a 70 year old (slightly less adventurous traveler these days) arriving on Cairo at night on my own I had hoped for some kind of security arriving in such a big city for the first time.
I was very upset. Do not recommend.
I also tried to use the refund service for Welcome Pickups but their automated service for cumbersome for me just trying to use wifi in hotels. And because I’d expected to be picked up I hadn’t read their info on how to get reimbursed.
Lost my money. Didn’t get picked up. Had to pay another fare.
Updated review. I did contact Welcome Pick Ups. They were very responsive, gave me a refund, offered some additional compensation ( if I gave them my banking details, I wasn't going do that) and a decent voucher for further use. I was pleased with their response but not sure I would consider using them again.
