Frequently asked questions

  • What are the district office hours?

    Sunday to Thursday, 09:00 to 14:00, excluding public holidays, at the district seat in Toussoun, El Mostasharin.

  • How do I reach the gardens and palaces?

    The Raml–Seyouf tram stops at the Montazah gate, and the Abu Qir railway line sets you down at Sidi Bishr or Toussoun stations — from either, a short bus or taxi ride reaches the entrances.

  • Where do I report a pothole or a broken streetlight?

    Through the “Report an issue” form in the services section, the assistant, or the unified 16528 hotline. Keep the reference number to follow it up.

  • Is the district responsible for water and electricity?

    Water, drainage and electricity networks are run by separate utility companies. The district receives reports and refers them on; for electricity emergencies call 121 and for gas 129.

  • When is the best time to visit Maamoura beach?

    The season runs June to September; early morning suits swimming and quiet, late afternoon suits families. Outside the season the corniche and public garden stay open all year.

  • Can I visit Nelson’s Island?

    The island is an archaeological site under the antiquities council with no regular visiting arrangement at present; it can be seen from Abu Qir beach, and licensed operators occasionally run authorised trips.
