Thinking of making a trip to Egypt in August 2027 for the Solar Eclipse — Guide help?

Hello,

I’m planning a trip for my partner and I to Egypt to see the solar eclipse next August. I’ve been reading online that the best course of action is to do a guided tour with a local agency, as scammers and harassment can be common towards foreigners. I obviously have never been so I don’t know how prevalent that would be towards a group of two, myself (M) and partner (F), but wanted to ask for advice for anyone thats made that trip themselves. We’re thinking 5 total days not including traveling to see Cairo and take a flight to Luxor and back before leaving for home.

Does anyone know of a reputable tour agency that would do something like this? I’ve only seen one so far, but they’re charging about $5500 USD for an 11 day tour. Is that typical?

I would love any advice I can get!
Thanks
