Sallam,

I was wondering if anyone could make some suggestions for the nicest areas in Cairo.

Some where with clean air, not to busy, but still located in a convenient location for services, restaurants, hospitals etc.

Thanks

Maadi. The only drawback some poeple would mention is that it is faraway from the rest of Cairo, but that's only an urban legend.

Hmm, well let's see...
Maadi,of course, but Sixth of October has REALLY niced settelements with lotsa garden views, No pollution, and peace& quite.
The other advantage is that for the price of a medium sized appartement in a nice are in maadi you can get yourself a villa or Town house, with your own garden and all.
Drawback: you HAVE to have a car, and preferably not be working in Helioplis (too far)

Hi,

I live in Rehab, and it's so nice, very clean and quite, and you have everything that you need, so you don't need to leave Rehab.


For me here are the best place in Cairo.

1-Rehab
2-Maadi but some parts there.
3-Heliopolis some parts
4-Zamalek

Thanks for taking the time to answer. Your answers where very useful. I’ve been recommended Rehab by a few people so far. There are some nice villas on the Cairo ismaila road, but I imagine they might be less convenient and will need a car.

Farhana,

Can you please provide the YourEgypt link that discusses this topic? I am also very interested in this subject but could not find the post there.

Thanks!

Ford I recommend Maadi if your a foreigner, the air is cleaner it is much quieter with an excellent metro service into the centre. The shops/resturants are good and easy to get too, Carrefour very nearby. I have been living there for 18mths now and it is great - highly recommended.
