A trusted partner experience, hand-picked and featured on This is Egypt.

Overview
Cairo’s Egyptian Museum is home to one of the world’s great collections of ancient Egyptian art and artifacts but poor signage and signposting makes it easy to miss key treasures when visiting independently. Enjoy a personalized tour with your own Egyptologist guide—and private 2-way transfers direct from your hotel—on this curated experience. Please note: Entrance fees are at your own expense.

This tour with Gina was fantastic. She was knowledgeable organized and friendly. It was a comprehensive tour of what is open in this amazing museum. Strongly recommend!
An excellent tour with a charming knowledgeable and helpful guide. Mario was the perfect companion and everything went exactly as it should, . Very highly recommend it!
Gina was a pleasure and very knowledgeable about museum , Egyptian history and Cairo in general. Her English was great and the pace of tour was perfect for our group of 4. She suggested a lunch spot after our tour that we loved. Excellent Lebanese food and a perfect chance to share our favorite moments from the morning. Highly recommend Gina and Viator for this tour.
Visite optimale du G.E.M et tellement enrichissante avec Ayman guide émérite :-) parcours passionnant !
This does not come with tickets - that needs to be more clear when picking this option. Then the guide had me buy tickets and somehow I got the wrong ones. And they were 30 min late picking us up. Despite the very frustrating beginning, the tour guide was knowledgeable and let us take our time to go through exhibits and to make up for being late they let us stay an extra hour and grab lunch and look through the shops.
Very good for a quick tour of the museum. Guide was very knowledgeable and showed the most important parts of the museum.
