The BEST tour group we’ve ever travelled with!
From the moment we enquired with Your Egypt tours to departing after our trip, we were so well looked after! Special mention to our fantastic guides, Peter, Ash & Mamdouh! All 3 were so knowledgeable, friendly and professional. No request was too big or too small. We felt so safe and looked after for our entire trip, which we could completely customise to our liking. Our guides knew all of the tips and tricks when visiting each site/attraction to ensure we beat the heat, crowds and maximised our experience. The guides were always there when we need suggests on places to visit, additional activities or food recommendations The boat we cruised the Nile on was beautiful and all of our accomodation in Cairo and Hurghada was clean, updated and located perfectly for what we required. We cannot recommend your Egypt tours enough! Thank you so much for providing an incredible experience we will not forget
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We are absolutely delighted to hear that you had such an incredible experience with us. It’s fantastic to know that from your very first inquiry until your departure, you felt well taken care of. We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to Peter, Ash, and Mamdouh—they will be thrilled to know they made such a positive impact on your journey. We’re also glad you enjoyed the flexibility of customizing your trip, felt safe throughout, and appreciated the little tips and tricks our guides shared to make your visits smooth and memorable. It’s wonderful to hear that your Nile cruise and accommodations in Cairo and Hurghada met your expectations as well. Your recommendation means the world to us, and we truly thank you for trusting Your Egypt Tours with such a special trip. We hope to welcome you back again in the future for another unforgettable adventure!

Third Fantastic Trip with Your Egypt Tours. My highest recommendation Possible!
My Brother and I did a 10 day private tour visiting Cairo, Abu Simbal, Aswan, Luxor and other sites. Everyone associated with Your Egypt Tours was absolutely fantastic! Ash, Menha, Peter, Johnny & Mohammad are very professional and wonderful people. This is my 3rd Trip to Egypt using Your Egypt Tours and highly recommend considering them if you are traveling to Egypt.

50th Anniversary Trip to Egypt
Great trip. My second time to Egypt using Your Egypt Tours. 50th anniversary trip to Cairo and Luxor and a 4 night Nile River cruise. Mona was great in reservations and her English is better than most Americans. Great personal guides, drivers, etc all provided by YETs. Would use them again in a heartbeat. PS......we encountered no safety issues in Egypt during our whole trips. Americans are welcomed (just as Mona assured us it would be).

We Attempt to See Egypt All in One Trip
We planned our trip 1 year ago. The actual travel happened at Easter of this year. The plan was to see all of Egypt in 1 trip, so the total trip was 23 days. We flew Lufthansa from Detroit to Frankfurt to Cairo. Everything went well and we absolutely loved flying Lufthansa. We had decided to hire a tour company for the first half or our trip, and they met us in the airport, got us to our hotel (right on the Nile). The next day we saw the Pyramids, the Sphinx, and the Egyptian Museum. We had a woman tour guide - Hend. She was wonderful. We rode the camels at the Pyramids, I recommend it, if only for the photos. The next day we flew south and started a 5 day Nile cruise. Each day starts with a different Egyptian temple. We had a small group led by a college educated guide. Yassir was with us for the whole cruise. You get back to the boat for lunch and the boat starts moving to the next stop. The scenery from the top deck was great. There is also a bar and a pool. We made friends with the bartender Sayed. I felt like I made a friend; he really watched out for us. It was greatly appreciated. The temples were fascinating. The Egyptian history makes our own American history seem very recent in comparison. The downside was that there was just sooo much history that my brain hurt. Far and away, the best day was at the Valley of the Kings. Being inside the ancient tombs with all the carvings and wall paintings was almost overwhelming. Everything is close enough to touch, in the States there would be bulletproof glass. When the Nile cruise was ended we flew back to Cairo. Cairo is roughly the same size as the city we are from, by square miles, but the population is 25 million. The traffic has very few rules, it seems, but it still moves pretty good. I never felt unsafe but we were always in tourist areas. For the second half of the trip we flew to Sharm el Sheikh. While there we stayed at a resort very similar to what you might find in Mexico or the Caribbean. I scuba dive on vacation and the diving in the Red Sea is on every diver's bucket list. The diving did not disappoint. I did all the local dives and had a really good time. The dive boats are pretty fancy and large. I would guess that we usually had around 75 divers. The equipment was fine, the dive masters are good. I was grouped with other english-speaking divers. Most divers were from Italy, with a lot of German, French, and English. Almost no Americans in Egypt. The only downside to the dive boats is that they are too large, too many divers. I prefer small boats, small groups. Large boats also mean a lot of wasted time. It took all day to dive in Egypt; in Cozumel you can be back to the bar and swimming pool by lunch. The resort staff really likes Americans; I guess we tip for service and most other countries do not. I bring a lot of small bills and tip in dollars. That makes me friends like Hamdy, our favorite waiter after dinner. Mohammed the bartender wade a really good Mojito. Even the guy that cleaned our room was super friendly and took care of us. Egypt's location relative to Sudan, Saudi Arabia, and Israel was not something that I thought about until I got there. Sudan is on their southern border and they are having a civil war. Saudi Arabia is visible across the water on clear days. Israel and the Gaza strip is literally up the road from our resort. I never felt any kind of danger. Nobody talked about politics or world events. Egypt really needs tourism, they don't have anything else, really. And so, they take good care of their tourists, they dont want any bad press. In summary, this was a ounce in a lifetime trip and I am not sorry that I went. Total cost was around $16,000. I an 64 this year. If I was a few years older, this trip might be too much. There is a lot of walking.

Private 10-Day Signature of Egypt & the Nile 2025/2026: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cairo.
How much does Private 10-Day Signature of Egypt & the Nile 2025/2026 cost?
+
Prices start at $599 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cairo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private 10-Day Signature of Egypt & the Nile 2025/2026 take?
+
Plan for about 240 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Cairo is not rushed.
Is Private 10-Day Signature of Egypt & the Nile 2025/2026 worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cairo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private 10-Day Signature of Egypt & the Nile 2025/2026?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private 10-Day Signature of Egypt & the Nile 2025/2026 suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 240-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private 10-Day Signature of Egypt & the Nile 2025/2026?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Cairo can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Cairo and add a light layer if any part of the 240-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private 10-Day Signature of Egypt & the Nile 2025/2026 start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Cairo within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Cairo?
+
On Outty we rank every Cairo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include All-in-One Giza Tour, inside Pyramid, sphinx, Camel ride & lunch, VIP Private Giza Pyramids, Sphinx Tour –Inside the Pyramids&More, Best of Cairo Private Giza Pyramids, Sphinx and Grand Museum Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Cairo?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Cairo?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
