First of all, I appreciated how easy it was to get admission tickets to the museum in a relatively short amount of time, something that isn't nearly as straightforward when going directly through the museum. A special shoutout to the guide (the name escapes me), who was incredibly knowledgeable and truly immersed us in the history of the Egyptians, bringing the museum's works to life with an intensity and passion that genuinely thrilled us.

Nemi was the perfect guide for the museum. A great combination of knowledge and passion. Her expertise was phenomenal and her enthusiasm was terrific.

The museum itself is absolutely amazing. Our guide was an Egyptian Egyptologist who had not only historical knowledge but also geographical knowledge of the sites where the artifacts were found. I don't think we could have asked for more. Two incredibly interesting hours.

All thanks to Nadia, who guided us through the museum’s three floors; with her warmth and expertise, she managed to engage us and expand our knowledge of ancient Egypt. After the guided tour, we explored the museum’s three floors again, eager to see the countless artifacts on display. The five hours we spent at the Egyptian Museum flew by—thank you.

If I can say anything about this guided tour I will say this: GET GIADA!! I was expecting just a nice simple tour to see some cool artifacts but I was so enthralled by her knowledge and interpersonal skills. I would have loved another tour with her in the other parts of the museum. I felt like we really experienced so much in two hours and she was not only extremely educated on all things Egyptian, but also sensitive about human remains which was very thoughtful. Get this tour!! You will not be disappointed...unless maybe you don't love great experiences.😏 Again, get GIADA!!

We loved the guided tour of the museum—especially my 10-year-old son. The guide knew just how to engage him without making it too overwhelming. A big thank you to our guide, Cristina!!

The guide saved time by pointing out the highlights of important stops for exhibits. The size of the group was only 8. The chronology was great starting at top floor to bottom. Guide was very friendly, knowledgeable and concerned about group members. The guide did not have a flag as advertised and did not receive a working headset. It was crowded and noise was sometimes difficult. Ticket and headset were 18$ for general admission. Price of tour was rather high with Headout subcontracting with ways tours. Layers of tourism add to communication and price issues which you don't know about when booking. Glad I got to do it on a free afternoon.
