Guided tour of the Museo Egizio

Guided tour of the Museo Egizio

The experience

Meet in front of the entrance of the Museo Egizio, in via Accademia delle Scienze 6, a quarter of an hour before the start. The guide accompanies you through the rooms for about 2 hours, among mummies, papyri, statues and jewelry, with stories linking the objects to the pharaohs' dynasties. On GetYourGuide it has 4.7 out of 5 with 1,730 reviews and starts from $66 per person (October 2026), with free cancellation up to 24 hours before.

The price includes the entry ticket to the Museum, the guide and, for groups of 10 or more, 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. The Museum also organizes its own guided visits: for 1-6 people in Italian, bookable online, they cost €50 for 60 minutes or €85 for 90 minutes per group, plus entry tickets; in English, French, German or Spanish they are booked by phone or email, from €70 for 60 minutes, always plus entry tickets (prices 2026).

Two warnings. The listing is clear: latecomers are not accepted, and the Museo Egizio is not the provider of this tour, which is run by a tour operator. Tips, food, drinks and hotel transfer are not included.

★★★★★

A great way to see this museum. Our guide, Nasser, was fantastic: very knowledgeable and excellent at communicating.

Flawless organisation, punctual and precise guide, competent in Egyptology. A scholar of hieroglyphs, he explained and illustrated the objects, even deciphering the transcriptions. Highly recommended.

A very interesting and informative tour with Nassar, our friendly guide. [...] Nassar took us through the collections at a good pace, showing us the most important pieces, with enough description and context to leave with a full appreciation of this magnificent collection. Thank you, Nassar!
