Is Cairo safe at night?

Question

Is it safe for a girl to walk alone in Cairo at night? If it is safe only in some parts of the city, would you tell me in which ones? If it is mostly safe, but there are some parts that should be avoided, could you tell me which those are? Thanks.

Answer 1

VERY SAFE until between 11 and 11:30 pm.
After that it is still safe , but some guys on the street may start trying to talk with you, thinking you are a bad girl.
Also avoid dark streets.
Safe places are main streets of Zamalek, Mohandesin, Nasr City, Heliopolis and Down Town.
Don't worry ... Egyptians are very friendly and kind, but they lik to make comments while you walk on the street and looks on what you wear, especially if u r pretty ;)

Answer 2

Cairo is one of many world's good megacities. As beautiful because it is mad, and as abundant with historical finery as it is half dilapidated, Cairo is commonly an area that tourists love and hate in similar steps so discover by which group you is going to be with assistance from this place hotelbye . In Cairo you may find, beyond the present day hubbub, a record that spans centuries. Packed with vigour, Cairo is where you truly get a feel for Egyptian road living and no trip to Egypt is total with out a stay in the town Arabs contact Umm al-Dunya (The Mother of the World). The definitely astonishing assortment of antiquities shown in Cairo's Egyptian Museum causes it to be one of the world's good museums and definitely a place for everyone's to visit.

Answer 3

I'm a boy and I can't see anything bad happened. But of course there are good places and bad ones. Anyway, don't go walk in dark, bad places and come and say that Cairo isn't safe ! Thank God, Cairo is one of the safest capitals in the whole world, especially it has many police officres stationed every where.

Answer 4

For the guys who said it's safe at night in cairo, would you let your sister walk around at night alone in cairo. I think not. But it's fine for some foreign girl, right? Look, in Cairo, if you are a single girl out at night, especially late, you are fair game to the thousands of sex starved Egyptian youths. I've heard countless stories from female friends here and my wife has had lots of incidents. She finally learned that the dark is no place for a decent woman here. If you insist, then try Maadi road 9 or one of the malls like ginena or stars where there is lots of security.

Answer 5

as any country in the world not 100 % sure safe but
the rich districts is safe as heliopolis , zamalek , mohandeseen , madenet naser, maády ..also the religoius districts are safe as el hussien , elsayeda , elazhar..and so on main streets only..

but i think its not safe at night in mokatam as its hill view make many undesired ppl to be there .. but not all the time ,,

advice : dont go and have a walk alone without a man with u to take care of u
its life ? and who knows?

Answer 6

egypt is safe all the time at night its even safer than many other countries if u have to walk at night alone try not to go to places where there are no ppl just to feel thjat u are safe
to make u feel more safe u will find lots of police men on the street at night
as we say egypt has a beutiful view at night u should never miss it

Answer 7

The Cairo/Alex highway is risky even in the day time the line is packed with pot holes and all of us drives like it truly is a race song so at evening much greater risky nevermind the worries. I continuously take the practice far flung from the mad drivers it truly is greater snug and lots safer.

Answer 8

Egypt is safe all the time but to be in a safe site don't exceed 11pm in winter and starting 9pm u would better walk in a lighted streets fill pf people like malls(city center mall, genena mall, city stars mall,....) cinemas and mainly in downtown not in suburbs

Answer 9

its safe of course dont worry..but when a street is empty ( which is rarley in cairo) think twice before walking throught it,,, but usually dont worry 99% f the time safe

Answer 10

yes , cairo is much more safer at night than any other countries, it is one from advantages of living in Egypt.
u can walk in midtown from 3 am to 6 am , hearing jokes in how u wear ur clothes will be your big deal.

- this in midtown ( cairo ) the police is well distributed there., like beside the museum, seliman basha st, 26 july st, khan el khalili, many others.

- but in suburbans it is safe 100% till 10 pm, too different from chicago , right ?!!!!
