Keys of Italy · Piazza Carignano
A 2-hour guided tour of the Museo Egizio in a group of up to nine people, all in the same language, with entry ticket included. Choose it if you want to ask the guide questions and stay close to the objects instead of following a large group.
The meeting point is in Piazza Carignano, near the statue in the center of the square, where the guide waits with a sign «Keys of Italy», the name of the operator. From there you enter the Museum for a 2-hour visit in a group of up to nine people, all in the same language: the listing defines it as semi-private. On GetYourGuide it has 4.8 out of 5 with 1,581 reviews and starts from $89 per person (October 2026), with free cancellation up to 24 hours before.
The listing mentions the tomb of Kha, the coffins, the statues and furnishings, the papyri of the Drovetti collection and the rock-cut chapel of Ellesiya, which the Museum recalls was inaugurated in Turin on 4 September 1970. The price includes the guide, the entry ticket and, for groups over 6 people, earphones. The Museum's official ticket costs €18 full price in 2026, is bought online only for a time slot (you enter within 15 minutes of the chosen time, not before) and is non-refundable.
For comparison, the Museum offers its own visits at fixed times, up to 25 people with an Egyptologist: in Italian, thematic tours cost €7 per person plus the ticket (as of October 2026).
