YET is an amazing tour company. From the moment I reached out, the team provided impeccable customer service by creating a custom tour for my needs and sending me tips and tricks as a solo traveler. My tour guide Mamdouh (and driver Mamdouh 2) were some of the kindest people I met. Mamdouh was passionate about the history, spoke very good English and was so attentive to making sure I had a great time. Could not recommend them more!

Booked a tour with only a few days before arrival. Wasn’t sure if I’d get the chance to book it but I did no problems. I was there Monday and Tuesday. My tour guide Ahmed was very informative and our driver kept me safe from the crazy Cairo traffic. If you are from the USA prepare yourself. It’s wild. It’s almost an adventure itself.
Ahmed showed me everything and explained all the possible knowledge and history of everything. He even took my picture at all monuments. The only thing is that I wish I could have had a little more time in between explanations to take my own pictures as i like to take artistic shots.
Other than that I’d really recommend this touring company.
Beware: do not by any means accept items or take photographs of the locals at the monuments, unless you want to... they will demand tips.

My friend and I had a 12 hour layover in Cairo and so we decided to book a tour with this company. Everything offered was delivered and our tour guide, Ibrahim, was very informative, nice, organized and accommodating. Our driver (sorry I forgot his name) was nice and drove smoothly. From the airport, we were driven to Giza Pyramids, and then to The Papyrus Museum. After seeing first hand how the ancient paper is made we took a street food break before entering Khan el-Khalili Market at sunset (the best time to go). By 5:30 pm, we were at the Museum. It was a pleasure to learn from Ibrahim.
My personal highlight: I had already been to Cairo 6 months prior so it was wonderful to revisit these places. It felt great to discuss what I had learned with my tour guide. I was also the one who offered food ideas and they were met with excitement without any disruption to the tour.
