Lost in Cairo? Well, youre not alone - we speak Arabic and we still find it hard to get around. Taxi drivers don’t speak English, and you don’t know the local address for the restaurant you wanted to go to. Add on the fact that Cairo is constantly changing and you soon realize—you’re lost. Thats why we created the Taxi Guide series – directories filled with big, bold-faced addresses in Arabic that show the driver exactly where you want to go.
FEATURES
✓ Taxi Cards: Just hold up your iPhone - the big, bold addresses in Arabic tell the driver exactly where you want to go. No more charades and no more getting lost.
✓ Search: Want to find a specific place? Search for it - with thousands of locations and hundreds of hotels, its probably in here. If not, let us know, and well include it in the next release.
✓ CardShare: Friends envious of your iPhone and that you have the Cairo Taxi Guide? At least you can share the Arabic address with them via Email, SMS, or just by copying and pasting it into your program of choice.
✓ Custom Cards: Ask your local friends to input your private addresses and have every card you need with you at all times.
✓ Notes: Trying to remember what to order at the restaurant on the corner? Make a note of it and youll never forget.
And don’t worry; it doesn’t need an internet connection, so you won’t get dinged with roaming fees. (*Please note that mapping and internet browsing of reviews require an internet connection and will use data). Well be providing constant updates, since the app is offline and Cairo changes so quickly, so stay tuned, and please reach out to us to let us know if we can help during this time in Cairo.
