Salah El Din Citadel ticket price 2026, is this normal?
550 is roughly the going rate for foreigners now, prices jumped the last couple years so that tracks. the Muhammad Ali mosque is included in the main ticket, no separate fee. bring small bills for the shoe minders at the door
the el nasr mosque inside is a separate small fee i think, or at least it was last time i went. also the military museum costs extra if u care about that. shoe minders tip is real, keep some 5 or 10 egp notes handy
el nasr was included when i went in october, guard waved me through with the main ticket. the military museum bit is true though, that one's a separate gate fee
also carry ur student id if u have one, foreign student rate is way cheaper than 550
yeah and the police museum next door is free
Best way to meet people in Cairo 2026?
try looking up classes at a nearby club or gym in el moez area, something weekly beats random meetups
Weekly is the key part, agreed. Worth noting El Moez Street is a good 20 to 30 minute walk from the Citadel itself, so if you're set on that area look at ahwas and sports clubs in El Khalifa or Sayeda Zeinab instead. Same idea, shorter commute.
yeah the metro ride makes that walk a nonstarter
Ahwa Al Horreya on Mohamed Ezz El Arab, evenings.
Fair point on the club angle, though the Cairo Capital Club and the Gezira clubs need memberships or sponsors, so check waiting lists before you count on it.
sporting club in maadi, much shorter waitlist
Language exchange nights at places like Diwan or Sawy Culturewheel are underrated for meeting ppl regularly, ngl.
