Amazing tour with our tour guide - I bought tickets at the museum. They give student discount. We went with our tour guide. Our tour company at Egypt is Hashtag (check my reviews for more details). Guide Ahmed was very nice he explained us very well. We enjoyed our trip and my son has leg injury so they provided wheel chair. This museum is wheel chair friendly for disabled person.

Great guide to a magnificent museum - Once confusion over the tickets caused by Viator's outdated documentation regarding the redemption point was overcome, we had a fabulous visit with Nurin. The museum is a magnificent building, and its contents are well displayed. It would have been hard work without Nurin, who was an excellent guide. The lunch is probably not necessary as part of the overall package, but it was not an issue.

From the vibrant energy of the city to the sheer scale and grandeur of the museum - every aspect of this experience exceeded my wildest expectations. But what made it truly exceptional was exploring the galleries with a knowledgeable and engaging Egyptologist guide. Their depth of knowledge and gift for storytelling completely immersed me in the ingenuity, artistry, and spiritual beliefs of ancient Egyptian civilization. I was in constant awe, marveling at the technological feats, intricate hieroglyphics, and exquisite craftsmanship of the artifacts, particularly the stunning Tutankhamun collection. The museum itself is an architectural masterpiece, a stunning setting that does justice to its priceless holdings. This entire experience has ignited a deep passion within me, and I know I will return to Egypt time and time again to continue unraveling the mysteries of this remarkable culture
