Cairo - Post Report Question and Answers

What kind of vehicle(s) including electric ones do you recommend bringing to post, given the terrain, infrastructure, availability of parts, burglary/carjacking risks, etc.? What kind of car or vehicles do you advise not to bring?

You do not need a car in Cairo unless you live on the edge of the desert. It will be expensive and a pain if you live in the inner city. Traffic is so horrible it is best to take the metro if possible and if not, then take an Uber. - Apr 2025


We don't have a car but I'd recommend getting one that can take a hit or two with good clearance. - Mar 2023
