Getting around Cairo
Metro fares from the governorate page and the station board. Taxis by an agreed price or the meter. No fixed taxi fare here.
Metro: read the official fare page
This is a reading of public pages. It is not legal advice and it is not a Wang Fu price. Figures, fees, and documents follow the linked page on the day you open it.
Cairo Metro single tickets and monthly passes were copied once into the site tools from the Cairo Governorate page, with the copy date marked. This library chapter does not copy that table, so it does not drift from the board at the station. Open:

The station poster is the other place to look. This page adds no pound figures.
Taxis and ride apps
White taxis: agree the destination and the price before you sit down, or ask for the meter. The colloquial lines are in the taxi phrasebook.
Uber and Careem are apps. This page states no flag fall. The price is what that trip shows. A foreign card works only if the app accepts it at that moment.
Highway accidents: Interior Ministry 0122 111 0000.
