An excellent choice. I had a private tour to the museum. My guide (Giaser) was super. He made me a timeline and gave as much info as possible. He could even read hieroglyphics!! I am taking time to write this in order to help others decide if this is worth booking. Yes it does!

Just the right amount of information in just the right places.

My tour guide was very knowledgeable, and gauged my particular interests to ensure we covered what was of most interest to me. The four hours was just right, with a brief rest break, to see the most important exhibits and get a general overview of the chronological exhibits on the first floor. The tour guide timed and directed the tour in a way to avoid the largest crowds which allowed me the opportunity to take my time where I wanted. Well done!

The tour was excellent. The tour guide was at the hotel on time, took us very well and safely through the traffic in Cairo across the street. As agreed, the tour of the museum lasted a good 4 hours. It was very informative, but also entertaining. We would do the tour again and again. Is highly recommended.
