    A Guide is a MUST for Egyptian Museum..

    lyyn, Mar 2026
    Firstly, its an absolute MUST to visit Egyptian Museum when in Torino .. this is one place that must not be missed. Its best to engage a guide to walk one thro the extensive museum. Our Guide NASIR is a Egyptologist and one can see his passion and listen to his detailed explanation. We were blown away by what the museum houses. Having Nasir takes us through help us to see the pieces systematically.

    A gem of Turino, do not miss visiting the Egyptian Museum

    Janice_P, Nov 2025
    Totally loved the tour, awesome and would do again as well recommend to friends and family, our English speaking tour guide Carol from Canada was highly knowledgeable, still in awe over the entire experience. We spent 2 hours with our tour guide and an additional 1 1/2 hours going back and visiting the entire museum on our own. There is so much to see and learn, and we probably only absorbed 10% of the museum because of the vast amount of artifacts and information. Do not miss visiting the Egytian Museum Turino, you won’t be disappointed

    Outstanding wxperience

    Jason_M, Aug 2025
    Great museum with a fantastic guide. Nassar was a super knowledgeable guide and the museum really must be seen with a guide to lead you through the enormous collection and how the epochs progress.

    I recommend this tour!

    Amy_B, May 2025
    Great tour! Very informative! Our tour guide was fabulous! He brought the exhibit to life! The museum shouldn’t be missed

    The Egyptian museum is a “must see”

    Kristen_A, May 2025
    Having a private guide to show you all the highlights of this museum is the only way to go. Our guide was very knowledgeable and helpful with all of our questions. The museum is truly amazing to see.

    Amazing Museum, Sarah is a wonderful guide

    Donn_M, Mar 2025
    This was an amazing tour! Nonstop fascinating Egyptian artifacts and history. Highly recommend tour guide Sarah N. She was extremely knowledgeable and a delightful young lady. Possibly our best tour guide ever and we've done well over a 100 tours! This is a must see museum in Turin. Only issue, there was a very rude couple in our small group. It was an English speaking tour, but the wife couldn't speak English, so the husband loudly repeated everything in their language to his wife which was very distracting.

    Nasr is excellent host AND Egyptolygist

    Adolfo_G, Mar 2025
    We were greeted warmly by our guide, Nasr Ammar. He showed us the major exhibits and enthusiastically explained the time period and significance of each artifact we explored together. I became ill about one third into the trip and Nasr took time to take me to a resting place until I recovered. He continued with my wife until we reunited again. He then took additional time to show me some of the highlights I missed. The collection and breadth of artifacts is exceptional! Thanks, Viator, for hiring a professional guide of Nasr's caliber!

    Carol is wonderful

    Jane_F, Mar 2025
    Carol was wonderful. Very knowledgeable about Egyptian way of life and made a huge museum manageable!

    Great guide, don't miss out.

    Max_S, Feb 2025
    The guide was wonderful! Super knowledgeable and brought thousands of years of history to life in the most interesting way. Definitely made our experience of this museum much more enjoyable and fun.

    Egypt without going to Egypt

    Leon_N, Oct 2024
    Nassar was an excellent guide. Very Knowledgable with lots of great stories to add interest. It was a great experience for everyone.

    Egyptian Museum Tour

    Jennifer_W, Oct 2024
    Luisa was a tremendous guide...We unfortunately were 15 minutes late...she waited for us and ended up giving us an additional 15 minutes tour. The museum is incredible and Luisa's knowledge and gift of storytelling made our experience much more valuable.

    Excellent tour. The tour guide was very knowledgeable about the exhibits and artifacts. I'd call it the Egyptian Odysse

    Sheri_W, Oct 2024
    The 5000 year old mummy was fascinating. several of the painted chests caught my eye. Merit's wig was amazing in that it survived all these years intact.

    Excellent journey through Egyptian history and culture

    Graciela_O, Oct 2024
    Excellent and very knowledgeable guide, with deep understanding and palpable passion for Egyptian culture and history.

    Nas was a great guide. Thoroughly enjoyed the Egyptian Museum!

    Roxanna_P, Sep 2024
    Nasser was a wonderful guide. He had so much knowledge and explained everything to us. Enjoyed the entire museum!

    Brilliant tour, extremly knowledgable guide

    Sebastian_B, Aug 2024
    Absolutely brilliant tour. Alessandro had an insane amount of knowledge and took a lot of time to really guide us through the entire history of ancient Egypt. This is by far one of the best tours we ever had, and I dont say that lightly. He answered all our questions, gave us tons of insights (way beyond anything someone with a basic general knowledge knows or what is described in the beautiful museum itself). I would take the exact same tour again just to learn more.

    Intimate

    Caroline_A, Jul 2024
    We were very lucky to have the guide all to ourselves. Great communicator and very insightful. Answered all our questions. Just wish it lasted the full two hours instead of 90mins.

    Very good experience with children

    Marianna_I, Jun 2024
    Our guide was very good in accommodating our child’s interests. We highly recommend this to families.

    Learned so much.

    Joanne_S, May 2024
    Our guide, Lara, was amazingly knowledgeable. She was totally engaging and accommodating We went to the museum on a very busy Saturday afternoon but she managed to keep our group together and find our way through the crowds. She has a great sense of humor. We got so much more from our visit than we would have without Lara as our guide.

    A must do tour!

    Reid_G, May 2024
    Although the museum was crowded, Lara guided us thru and made sure to explain and point out details in this vast collection of antiquities. It certainly helped that she was an expert in the field and her knowledge and pleasant demeanor made this tour even better. So much to see and understand, Lara brought so much more to this important museum. Very happy we did this tour, well worth it.

    Make the Most of Your Visit

    Todd_S, May 2024
    We were very glad we booked this experience, led by Nassir. First, the museum is very busy and the layout perhaps not intuitive to understand how to proceed through different areas. He was able to guide us through crowds and form an ordered timeline through the exhibits. Nassir is an Egyptologist, so there was no level of detail that he was unable to discuss in more detail when asked. He was professional, but casual and friendly at the same time. Highly recommend!

    Bringing Egypt to life

    Judi_P, Apr 2024
    Exceptional guide, excellent English, and a wealth of knowledge to share. The museum is huge and having a guide to navigate through the many exhibits was invaluable. Absolutely fascinating! Highly recommend.

    Worth it

    Kym_M, Apr 2024
    Our guide was fabulous. Best way to learn about Egypt. Very much enjoyed the 2 hrs there. He kept us informed and engaged the whole time.

    Definitely worth a visit!

    Ralf_H, Mar 2024
    Very good guide! Very knowledgable and very good English. Great discussion about Egypt. We got a comprehensive tour through the whole museum

    Really interesting tour

    Linda_S, Mar 2024
    Good to have explanations and ability to ask questions. Carol was interesting and interested. She explained things well. The museum is huge so it was valuable having a guide and seeing key pieces and having things pointed out.

    I am so delighted I booked a private tour

    Siobhan_M, Feb 2024
    Carol my tour guide was amazing and she also was great at recommending places to eat in Turin and other visitor attractions. A great all round experience.

    Nazir

    James_B, Nov 2023
    Nazir, our most excellent guide …..very enthusiastic, very immersed in sharing his knowledge of Egypt !!!!! The 2+ hours passed too quickly

    Very interesting tour

    Manuela_M, Oct 2023
    Guide was very knowledgeable, as well as funny He gave us a lot of insights we would have never learned from a self-guided tour Great experience!

    Overall very good. Enjoys some of the side comments on history.

    Joan_E, Oct 2023
    Overall a good tour of a wonderful museum. There was a bit of anxiety that we did have our tickets on Viator just voucher. The guild was late and museum staff did not know anything about it and were rude.

    An exceptional ‘Must Do’ tour.

    LARRY_G, Sep 2023
    Hassan, an Egyptologist, with a wealth of knowledge, was an exceptional tour guide who knew the history of every stone, literally, made the museum come alive. We cannot rave enough about him. His warm, friendly, welcoming manner, his excellent way of presenting the facts while engaging us and reviewing them with us to make sure we understood, was wonderful. He read us heiroglyphics and taught us the symbols. The entire tour was fascinating. We would give it way more than 5 stars. Absolutely delightful.

    Amazing and awe inspiring

    richard_s, Sep 2023
    Nassr our guide was fantastic!! He lives what he does and it made this experience very memorable! I highly recommend this tour and Nassr as well for the best experience possible!
