TMIC is located in Maadi in the heart of Cairo!
Maadi is considered one of the two expat oases in Cairo; it is a quiet, leafy suburban district south of Cairo. The TMIC center is located behind the Grand Mall and is within walking distance from restaurants, coffee shops, and banks. Maadi also has a big variety of kindergartens and schools and is known to be the hub for wellness centers and everything related to a natural and health lifestyle. The district is also considered to be in the middle between other areas and accessible from all areas in Cairo and Giza. The European-designed district on the east bank of the Nile has largely maintained its splendour and enduring appeal since its establishment in the 19th century by Khedive Ismail, being home to a large number of grand two-storey villas and foreign embassies.

It is best to move around in Maadi by walking or Uber and outside Maadi by Uber. Both public transportation and driving are not advisable for foreigners as the public transportation are extremely crowded and it might be very tricky to drive in Cairo's crowded streets. However, nowadays many foreigners learn to drive in Egyptian streets and some prefer to use public transportation. Some Egyptians and Foreigners also use bicycles to move around Maadi, however it might not be for everyone as there are no special lanes for bikes. Renting a car and hiring a driver might be a good option for some students specially if a group of students is willing to share the cost of one car. Car pooling is also becoming popular now in Egypt. Whatever your choice is, we could certainly help!
