From the Cairo World / Travel essentials
Driving in Cairo
Driving gives control over longer journeys, but Cairo's dense traffic, flyovers and difficult parking make a self-drive car a demanding choice within the city.
A car may help if your journey continues beyond Cairo, yet it is rarely the simplest way to move among central sights. Junctions, U-turns and multilane roads require close attention, while finding a place to park can consume time. Consider whether a driver or another mode would make the city portion easier.
Useful to know
Study the route out of the city before collecting a rental car at the airport.
Allow for U-turns and indirect approaches rather than expecting every junction to permit a left turn.
Arrange parking at your accommodation before bringing a car into central Cairo.
