Housing guide

No Cairo housing guide yet — here’s what we do have.

We write a guide once a city has around ten housing reviews. Cairo has none yet.

Egypt housing basics

  • Shared room in Dokki, Mohandessin or Maadi: €120-250/mo
  • Studio in Zamalek or New Cairo: €300-450/mo
  • Search Facebook groups, not portals, that's where the flats are
  • Never wire a deposit before you've seen the place in person

Still deciding where to live?

Ask the students already in Cairo. They know which streets are worth it.
