“How much is a bodyguard?” is the question we hear most. The honest answer: there is no fixed number — the price is built on the details of the assignment. Here are the factors that shape the cost of close protection in Egypt, so you can compare offers wisely.
1. Number of guards
One guard can escort a client to a quiet meeting; a large wedding or a public appearance in a crowded venue needs a full team with a leader. More operatives cost more, but the right headcount saves money and closes gaps.
2. Duration
Pricing differs for a few hours, a full day, or weekly and monthly contracts. Longer contracts usually lower the daily rate thanks to stable planning.
3. Nature of the mission and risk level
Protecting an executive on a known schedule differs from securing a celebrity in a crowd or someone under direct threat. Higher risk calls for more experienced operatives and tighter planning.
4. Transport and vehicles
Do you need an escort car or a trained driver? Is the job in Cairo or does it include travel to the North Coast, Hurghada or Upper Egypt? Travel and accommodation are part of the cost.
5. Appearance, languages and special requirements
Uniform dress codes, English-speaking guards for foreign guests or female operatives for families all affect team selection and price.
Beware of choosing on price alone
The cheapest offer may mean untrained guards with no situational experience or discretion. In protection, one mistake costs far more than the price difference.
