We did Egypt last year. Yes, you need a guide. You won't even know what you're
looking at if you don't. AND you'll likely get screwed by scammers, vendors, and random people trying to sell you stuff if not.
Probably safety too.

You don't go in Cairo. I think a tour guide is best, or 3 day Nile cruise

If you’ve done a lot of travel, no you don’t need a guide

I once turned up my nose at the idea of Nile Cruze. Turns out it’s a great way

A live aboard in Egypt is a fantastic value if that’s your thing. Fun with kids!

I can’t think of a good reason not to use a local tour company to see Cairo.
