Egypt will soon launch an Uber-like e-hailing mobile application for horse carriages (hantoor) in the country’s tourist city of Luxor and then extend it to other tourist areas as part of efforts to reinvigorate the country's ailing tourism industry.
Through the app, tourists and local customers will be able to order any horse carriage in the city, know the prices, see the portfolio of the carriage’s driver and even rate his performance and that of the whole trip.
