Is Cairo Safe for Women? Crime Rate in Cairo

Its not bad if you stay in the developed areas but going into unknown areas where you dont have someone who knows people will get you hurt even as an Egyptian. Its very easy to invite a friend who’s goal is everyones safety for an overall better experience and efficiency in exploration

Cairo is pretty safe if you know the dos and don’ts there so try to always get the experience of a local to avoid any kind of trouble, if you’re by yourself try to be in the touristy areas, and if you want to experience the local non-touristy places try to do it with a local. Stay safe ladies.

What I love about here is that really it's the safest I see, as long as it's light outside you are good to go wherever, just make sure in public transport you don't get near men try to set near a woman for safety of sexual harassment. I didn't have the experience of robbery or getting attacked or something like that.thank god. Yeah also make sure crossing the streets to take care bec that's something to worry about in Egypt. We don't have a system for streets, so people and cars and motorcycles are a problem sometimes

For anyone coming to Cairo, most people are friendly. However, wear modest clothes when in certain areas like old Egypt or the pyramids. Mostly stay in modern places like Tagamoo’ or Maadi If you need recommendations for safe places around Egypt, hit me up

It's a bustling city. Famous places are always crowded, which makes it safe to walk among the crowd if you don't stand out. I feel safe travelling after dark as long as it's not later than 10 PM, the streets start becoming quite after that. The metro network is very convenient and safe to travel with to explore the city :)!

Family travel

I came to Cairo with my sister and my grandma. We came with a tour company for a day, and visited the great pyramids of Giza. We visited the mosque of al-Zahir Baybars, and Egyptian Museum, which was my childhood dream, because we could see the real mummies. After that we went to Giza by tour bus. It was really hot but the experience was phenomenal. We had a lunch at the nearby cafe, organised by the tour company. Overall, I’d say Egypt is good for travelling with a group or a family. I would not go there alone, as I would not feel safe enough doing so. I wore long pants and a long-sleeved shirt on my trip for safety and sun protection.
