I visited Cairo and found it a moderately interesting experience. The city is full of history, culture, and iconic places, but also very intense, busy, and chaotic at times. It has a strong energy and unique atmosphere, but it can feel overwhelming if you prefer calmer and more organized cities.

I visited Sharm El Sheikh and found it moderately enjoyable. The nature and sea are absolutely beautiful, with clear water and great weather, but overall it felt more like a relaxed resort destination. Good for rest and beaches, but not very active in terms of city life or exploration.

It was a great experience. The people there are funny, welcoming, and kind. I visited both Cairo and Dahab—they are both amazing! 😍🤩 The weather was a little bit hot 🔥, but it’s worth it. The food is spicy and has a lot of spices—haha!

I would honestly say that It is safe but not completely because there is still catcalling and harassment that happens during the day! Even if it is not all the time but it happens to many women even to foreigners.

I wouldn’t recommend women coming to Cairo by themselves unless they have local friends they’re going around with or large groups. Some places in New Cairo are considered safe. The area i live in is a gated community so it’s pretty safe. I go to the gym pretty late and walk home around 1am and nobody every bothers me. I do recommend looking and acting more intimidating if you’re by yourself.
Posted: March 11, 2026Cairo is surprisingly safe, mainly because it is alive 24/7. Whether it’s 3:00 PM or 3:00 AM, the streets are filled with families and open cafes, creating a natural sense of security. It is very big city where you can find everything.

Cairo is moderately safe, الحمد لله. It is a normal capital city; some areas are crowded and busy, but safety depends on the neighborhood and time of day. Overall, it feels secure and welcoming. city!
