Private half-day tour to the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM)

Tawfik and Ahmed have such a great hospitality and the pick up and drop off are smooth. Tawfik has a deep knowledge of the Museum and their history also the roots of all the artifacts. We do enjoy the Museum so much and enjoy the company of Tawfik and Ahmed too. Much appreciated and highly recommended!! furthermore, we are grateful that we have our own time to spend and explore the exhibits. Also recommend to get an entrance ticket before going to the museum, the line is massive.

Shady was our tour guide for the 2nd time. He was very good at storytelling and pointed out the highlights of the museum. It helped us appreciate the museum better!

The team of Mustaffa (driver) and Tawfik (Egyptologist) did an expert job of safely delivering a comprehensive examination. of the GEM. Tawfik has a masterful approach to summarize this largest museum on earth. I know there are less expensive ways to visit GEM but if you want to actually know what you are looking at and learn something this is a good approach.

Confirmation was sent promptly via WhatsApp after booking which was appreciated. However, there were some lack of updates for car plate number and slight 15 mins delay in meeting time (we had to text again the morning of booking date to ask for car plate number and they informed driver will be late due to transporting of materials?). Hana our guide was pleasant and able to answer most of the questions we asked, however because GEM was too large (and grand!), it felt like the explanation for exhibits might be rushed sometimes. She was also patient and accommodating to our requests to purchase sandwiches before we head to the next location. We were brought to a perfumery after which was not included in the tour. This will depend on your comfort level on purchasing oils but my husband had a blast and bought quite a few bottles. By then we had to leave and they kindly accommodated to our request to send us to Mall of Egypt instead of going back to our hotel. Overall a pleasant tour!

Ahmed Essam was very kind and explained the history of Egypt in a way that was easy to understand. I don't know much about Egypt, but he patiently taught me many interesting facts. In the Tutankhamun room, he told cinematic stories, explained various other cultures, and even recommended food. This tour was one of the main highlights, and I'm extremely satisfied. He's also excellent at taking photos.

We recently visited the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), and it was an absolutely breathtaking experience. Our guide, Ezzaldin Rashdan, was exceptional; he kicked off our tour by showing us the Hanging Obelisk, followed by a profound explanation of the colossal statue of Ramesses II. We also explored the masterpieces from the Greco-Roman period. ​One of the most striking highlights was his detailed explanation of the kneeling statue of Queen Hatshepsut, one of the most significant pieces in the museum. ​The GEM is truly a masterpiece of architecture and history. I highly recommend Ezzaldin Rashdan as your go-to guide if you want to truly unlock the secrets of the museum. This place is beyond imagination—a magnificent tribute to the glory of Ancient Egypt. It is a world-class destination that focuses solely on the greatness of one civilization: the Ancient Egyptian civilization. I urge everyone to visit and witness this grandeur for themselves

I booked grand museum but they closed it for grand opening, so I asked the local operator to take me to the museum of civilization. Had a great time, saw a lot of mummies, the guide Ezzaldin rashdan was knowledgeable the car driver ayman was on time and both were helpful, and the local operator is extremely good, the lunch was also tasty. highly appreciated.

Had a super fun day at the GEM with Hana! It was very interesting to see the relics and learn about it.

Ahmed Essam is a great tour guide with clear and interesting explanations to the history of Egypt. we have some great time in the GEM.

This package for grand Egyptian museum was the best, the guide was well endowed with knowledge and very friendly person
