Two hours at the Museo Egizio with a guide just for your group, entry ticket included and the date and time you prefer. This is the option for those who want to ask questions without a group around and decide when to start.
The guide will wait for you in Piazza Carignano, in front of the monument in the centre of the square. If your hotel is in the centre, the listing says you can also be picked up at the hotel, and from there you walk to the Museum. The price includes the entry ticket and the guide, only for your group. When you book, you indicate the date, the time you prefer and how many people you are.
The most concrete difference compared to the other visits on this list is the cancellation: free up to 2 days before, not 24 hours. Keep this in mind if your plans may change. The Museum's rules also apply here: large backpacks and bags are not allowed and the luggage storage, due to works, is not available. Animals are not allowed. The price starts from $174 for one adult (GetYourGuide, October 2026): check the total for your group before paying.
The Museum also organises visits with its Egyptologists, at a group price plus tickets. For 1-6 people in Italian they cost €50 for 60 minutes and €85 for 90 minutes, bookable online; in English, French, German and Spanish they are bookable only by phone or email, from €70 for 60 minutes to €145 for 120 minutes (source: the Museum's tariffs). The official ticket costs €18 in 2026, is bought online only for a time slot and is non-refundable.
Enter the date, time and number of people in the group, as the listing asks.
Large backpacks and bags are not allowed in the Museum and the luggage storage is closed for works.
The guide waits for you in front of the monument at the centre of the square. If you are staying in a city centre hotel you can request pickup: then you walk to the Museum.
You enter with the included ticket and the guide stays with your group for two hours. The Sale Storiche on floor -1 have been closed since 12 December 2025.
Free cancellation applies up to 2 days before the tour, not until the day before.
