With the 40th edition of the Cairo International Film Festival coming to a close this weekend, all eyes were on the red carpet as national and regional stars came out for the closing ceremony – more so than the other moments of glitz and glam throughout the week. You see, that closing ceremony is the last chance to make a mark with that expensive couture dress or three-piece custom-made suit.

Naturally, such a grand occasion requires, nay demands a grand arrival and SIXT Rent a Car stepped in to and obliged, taking stars to the foot of the red carpet at Cairo Opera House in a delightful fleet of London Cabs – everyone from Shereen Reda and Arwa Gouda, to Dhaffer L'Abidine and Abu Bakr Shawky on both opening and closing nights.

Operating in Egypt since 2003, the company has been hailed for being trusted, professional and efficient – just a few of the requirements for the kind of grand event that it’s been a part of in 2018.

While they might not able to make you into a star, they can make you feel like one, thanks to their elite range of new cars – fancy a Jeep Grand Cherokee? Maybe an Alfa Romeo? They’ve got your covered. There are packages of different short and long rentals to fit all - you an even pre-book a car abroad before your travels to 115 countries with 4500 locations worldwide.
