The Egyptian Museum deserves a full day but with limited time... our guide gave us 3 hours of the highlights. You have to pay extra for the King Tut Treasure Room well worth it and Mummy Room depends on your interest. The Mosque and Hanging Church were Holy Family hid were great. You can skip the Bazaar for more time at the Museum.

Manar Atwa was fabulous! She was knowledgeable about all the sites and the customer service was incredible. She assisted me in purchasing items by informing me of a good price and took me to locations to obtain the items. The tour was great and I highly recommend it to everyone!

The tour guide was not speaking in a culturally appropriate manner. The tour itself is overcharged compared to the service provided, even taking into account that the entrance fees and lunch was included. The buffet lunch was not in a great restaurant or location. We also felt very rushed and didn't have time to go through the areas we wanted. I would not recommend this tour.
