TL;DR
The nearest official We store is on the ground floor of Hurghada Mall (Hurghada Centre). It's about 30 minutes on foot or 5 EGP by dolmus. Bring your passport — they'll insert the SIM on the spot.
It’s recommended to avoid buying SIM cards at the airport: reports say the data allowance can be lower than advertised. It’s safer to buy from an official operator store in town.
Small local shops around the city also sell SIM cards if you need one quickly and don't want to travel to a mall.
The official We operator store is on the ground floor of Hurghada Mall. Take a dolmus for 5 EGP and tell the driver the mall name. You need your passport; the SIM is activated immediately and works great throughout the city. On the way back, just tell the driver your hotel name and they'll drop you off.
