This tour is much better than just go to Egyptian Museum by taxi and walk around yourselves. First, the private tour car pick you up from the hotel. Our tour guide let us took photo in front of the Egyptian Museum during he purchased entrance tickets. You have to pay 50 Egyptian ponds photo tickets if you bring camera with you. I thought just don't take photo inside the Museum is enough at first but when my bag was scanned, security found my camera and our guide had to go back ticket booth to purchase photo ticket. So, purchase photo ticket first. Inside the Museum was incredible! There are so many Egyptian fortunes. Our guide answered any questions and told us a lot of information about those treasures. Tutankhamen's mask was gorgeous and I'm surprised the its delicate hand work. You have to pay another 150 EP to enter Royal mummy's collection. I didn't enter Royal mummy's collection room but you can see normal people's mummy without paying extra. Our guide gave us time to walk around the Museum by ourselves so we could enjoy walk around and chat about each treasures after tour. Most Egyptian Museum treasures don't have information panel so I think guide included tour is better choice than go through yourselves.
