The experience

Overview

The new Grand Egyptian Museum is a landmark in the history of Egyptology and home to the complete treasure of Tutankhamun, but it’s hard to reach from downtown Cairo independently. This private tour spares you the stress. Book a transportation-only package or upgrade to include tickets and your own personal Egyptologist. You can also complete your experience with a tour of the nearby Giza Pyramids, which includes a camel ride.

Passant was knowledgeable and went through highlights of the grand museum. She also recommended a Egyptian restaurant for lunch that served koshary and showed us how to prep it. Overall great experience.

Our guide Mosta was very knowledgable. The museum is huge so we only covered the most important areas in the time. The King Tut exhibits were our favourite. I learnt quite a lot about ancient Egypt and its rulers however sometimes it felt a lot to take in. Could have done with a bottle of water, which we expected otherwise we would have taken our own. On the whole an interesting visit and a delightful guide.

The museum was great and the tour itself was good. The tour guide was inexperienced and didn’t really guide us on the content of the museum, just an overview of the museum and some highlights.
