This small-group tour covers the highlights in half a day, and with an Egyptologist guide to provide explanations. Admire the must-see treasures of Tutankhamun, including his gold death mask; and see and learn about mummies, statues, and other antiquities spanning 5,000 years. Includes a choice of departure times and hotel pickup and drop-off.

The guide was patient, kind, and very knowledgeable. She took the time to explain things that were obviously not common knowledge and effortlessly broke down the reasoning behind them. She was also very flexible... I just wish I had more to tip her!

Our driver Tamer was just great: very personable and flexible. And I would highly recommend him. It turned out that we needed to connect to another tour immediately following this one and Tamer transitioned us and helped communicate with the next driver. He also found us a lunch spot during Ramadan when many places were closed. We didn't book the guide to the museum because we felt comfortable going at our own pace, but Tamer would have been a good guide

The new museum is really great! I loved being able to see the mummies! I had read about all of these historical figures and to see them was the best!

Una macchina ci è venuta a prendere e ci ha portato all'incontro con la guida egittologa, che è stata simpaticissima e mooolto preparata. Il museo è enorme ma Monalisa ha saputo indirizzarci sulle cose principali e più interessanti da vedere/scoprire. Inoltre, la nostra guida ci ha fatto anche da fotografa sapendo cogliere anche situazioni simpatiche.
