Very knowledge and patient in explaining the "era's". Polite and timely. Did not feel rushed and you could then go round again.

An exceptional tour through the Egyptian museum! Sarah was very knowledgeable and had a way to keep the narrative very interesting. We didn't even realise two hours had gone by, by the end of the tour. A highly recommended experience!!!

Nadia was awesome! She was a wealth of knowledge. Very friendly. She was very thorough and went over all the periods. I would recommend this tour!
Tiana_T, Apr 2025
The museum itself is absolutely amazing but I would not have gotten as much out of the experience without a guide and I feel so lucky that I ended up with Sophia! She was passionate and knowledgeable and really just made the whole experience 12/10. Would book a tour with her of any place she’s willing to guide!

The Egyptian Museum is incredible, and our tour guide was exceptional. She was extremely knowledgeable and brought to life the history of the ancient Egyptians.

Sofia, our tour guide, was AMAZING! what a great storey teller she is! Widely knowledgeable and was able to answer all my questions.
We were in a group of 3 which was fantastic! We were all able to see and hear Sofia, even when I wondered out a bit to take photos.
Really recommend the tour as the history and stories about that period of human existence is just mesmerising! Looking forward to coming back when the museum redecoration is completed.

Sofia was an excellent guide. She was animated and knowledgeable. Her communication was clear and she willing answered our questions.

We had an excellent tour with Sofia! She is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the Egyptian collection, and showed us many highlights of the museum without allowing us to be overwhelmed by the massive collection. My 12 year old son was engaged and felt comfortable asking his questions too! Highly recommended!

An amazing tour for anyone, but especially for those that are lovers of history and ancient history. A must see if in Turin, and has to be done with a guide. My guide was wonderful and full of great information. I came out of the museum and tour wanting to go back.

Da non perdere assolutamente
Esperienza totalmente unica
Con personale molto qualificato
Ci tornerei sicuramente
Carla_G, Mar 2026
Visiting the museum with an expert guide allows you to notice details that otherwise you would not be able to appreciate. In two hours you can not visit all the rooms but you observe the most significant finds and then, after greeting the guide, you can return to visit the remaining parts

The museum is exceptionally organized, it is a dynamic museum. The guide who made us discover the beauties of this museum, was very prepared, his name is Alessio. I wish all the guides were like him, he managed to convey to me his passion for Egyptian culture

Nice experience, Gabriella explained and entertained us very comprehensively during the tour in the museum

Cristiana_M, Dec 2025
Right from the start at the meeting point the guide Gabriella was very nice and throughout the Tour proved competent and well prepared. I recommend everyone to take the guide because the museum is really huge and alone becomes dispersive. Really nice trip.
