🇬🇧 Cairo Gateway Bus Station, or Torgoman Bus Terminal as locals call it, is making a name for itself as the go-to place for catching a bus in the bustling city of Cairo. No matter where you're headed around Egypt, you can find the right bus from Cairo Gateway Bus Station.
Personally, I went to Siwa with a driver (we had him as an Uber driver for a short trip and we asked him if he did longer ones) which I absolutely do not recommend because in addition to the fact that it is also necessary to add to the price the care of gasoline, its hotel, its meals until the return, few Egyptians go to Siwa because it is a very isolated city so most do not know not the difficulty of the road. The best alternative and the one I would choose next time is therefore the bus and here is all the information necessary for a departure from Cairo:
