Group tour in Italian

The experience

Meet in Piazza Carignano, in front of the statue, and enter the Museum with the guide for 2 hours and a half. The listing describes the guide as «in Italian, low voice»: she speaks into a microphone and you hear her with the radio guide, without her having to raise her voice in the rooms. On GetYourGuide it has 4.7 out of 5 with 512 reviews and starts from $54 per person (October 2026), with free cancellation up to 24 hours before.

The price includes entry to the Museum and the guide. 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. The Museum also offers its own visits in Italian at fixed times, for up to 25 people with an Egyptologist and single-use radio headsets: the themed itineraries cost €7 per person plus the ticket (as of October 2026), as reported by the Museum's tariffs and the online ticket office.

A note on luggage. The listing does not allow animals, smoking, suitcases or large bags, and reminds that large backpacks and bags are not allowed in the Museum and that the luggage storage is not available due to works. The Museum confirms this: the cloakroom is suspended.
