Cairo's Beloved (and Sweet-Smelling) Metro
What's the one thing in Cairo that never lets you down - even in the middle of a revolution?
P.S. It even has a carriage just for women.
There is one thing in Cairo that nobody complains about. The Metro is universally loved. It has saved the city from complete paralysis - when it gets hot the population escapes underground.
In this often chaotic city, the metro is something of a miracle. Efficient and orderly - Egyptians often say it’s the only thing in Cairo that never breaks down. Even in the middle of a revolution!
It’s extremely inexpensive - a Metro ride costs one Egyptian pound – about sixteen cents. And best of all, it’s air conditioned!
Almost 4 million people ride Cairo’s subways every day. It is one of only two metro systems in all of Africa.
On every train, the 4th and 5...

The Cairo Metro (Arabic: مترو أنفاق القاهرة, romanized: Metro Anfāq al-Qāhirah, lit. "Cairo Tunnel Metro" or مترو الأنفاق )is the rapid transit system in Greater Cairo, Egypt. It was the first of the three full-fledged metro systems in Africa and the first in the Arab world to be constructed. It was opened in 1987 as Line 1 from Helwan to Ramsis square with a length of 29 kilometres (18.0 mi). As of 2013, the metro carried nearly 4 million passengers per day. As of August 2020, the Cairo Metro has 74 stations (mostly at-grade), of which 3 are transfer stations, with a total length of 89.4 kilometres (55.6 mi).

Innovia 300 monorail trial run in Cairo, Egypt
Last week, the Innovia 300 monorail train successfully completed its trial run from the New Capital City depot to station 22, with the presence of Egypt’s Ministry of Transport and National Authority for Tunnels (NAT)!
Once completed, the two Cairo monorail lines will offer new and needed transport options to key areas in Greater Cairo, especially the New Administrative Capital City. Did you know that it will move 600,000 commuters daily on each line between the East of Nile and the West of Nile lines?

Using The Metro in Cairo, Egypt (details in description!)
This video is a brief insight on the features of Cairo's Metro and what to expect while using Egypt's rapid transit.
Many people (especially women) ask if it is safe for a foreigner to use the metro as public transportation. Egypt has helped by designating an allocated area on each metro line specifically for women only. This helps cuts down the chances of issues to ensure a safe trip. I know of many foreigners who have used and still use the Metro with little to no issues at all.
In this video I ride all 3 lines to show the difference, starting with line 3 and ending with line 1. Each line has its own unique design. Lines 3 and 2 have digital screens showing your line of travel along with the names of the stops. They also contain a digital map of the entire line to track your ride. Bot...

What's the one thing in Cairo that never lets you down - even in the middle of a revolution?
P.S. It even has a carriage just for women.
There is one thing in Cairo that nobody complains about. The Metro is universally loved. It has saved the city from complete paralysis - when it gets hot the population escapes underground.
In this often chaotic city, the metro is something of a miracle. Efficient and orderly - Egyptians often say it’s the only thing in Cairo that never breaks down. Even in the middle of a revolution!
It’s extremely inexpensive - a Metro ride costs one Egyptian pound – about sixteen cents. And best of all, it’s air conditioned!
Almost 4 million people ride Cairo’s subways every day. It is one of only two metro systems in all of Africa.
On every train, the 4th and 5th cars are reserved for women. It’s meant to protect them from sexual harassment, and has made the subway one of the safest forms of transport in Egypt. Though the women can push just as hard as the men. Mostly they chat comfortably with each other, or read the Koran. Though they do insist their carriage smells much better than the men’s.

The Cairo Metro (Arabic: مترو أنفاق القاهرة, romanized: Metro Anfāq al-Qāhirah, lit. "Cairo Tunnel Metro" or مترو الأنفاق )is the rapid transit system in Greater Cairo, Egypt. It was the first of the three full-fledged metro systems in Africa and the first in the Arab world to be constructed. It was opened in 1987 as Line 1 from Helwan to Ramsis square with a length of 29 kilometres (18.0 mi). As of 2013, the metro carried nearly 4 million passengers per day. As of August 2020, the Cairo Metro has 74 stations (mostly at-grade), of which 3 are transfer stations, with a total length of 89.4 kilometres (55.6 mi). The system consists of three operational lines numbered from 1 to 3.
The Cairo Metro is run by the National Authority for Tunnels. The lines use standard gauge (1,435 mm (4 ft 8+1⁄2 in)). ~Wikipedia

This video is a brief insight on the features of Cairo's Metro and what to expect while using Egypt's rapid transit.
Many people (especially women) ask if it is safe for a foreigner to use the metro as public transportation. Egypt has helped by designating an allocated area on each metro line specifically for women only. This helps cuts down the chances of issues to ensure a safe trip. I know of many foreigners who have used and still use the Metro with little to no issues at all.
In this video I ride all 3 lines to show the difference, starting with line 3 and ending with line 1. Each line has its own unique design. Lines 3 and 2 have digital screens showing your line of travel along with the names of the stops. They also contain a digital map of the entire line to track your ride. Both lines 3 and 2 have air-condition and are very clean. (Lines 2 and 1 were packed this day so for consensual reasons, I did not film inside the train of those two lines.)
Line 1 is the oldest line in Cairo, Egypt. Although there isn't air condition, it is still one of my favorites to take as it ascends above ground for a lovely view of Cairo. While it can get hot in the summer, I highly recommend using line 1 for the views and especially during the winter. Also, Line 1 usually has Egyptian sellers hopping on and off trains to sell some unique items you never knew you needed!
I always enjoy my trips using Cairo's Metro as it is safe, affordable and perfect to use on adventure days to explore around Cairo.
