Grand Egyptian Museum, New Galleries Includes Local Lunch

Marco was the most informative and interesting guide!! He offered to take many photos of us so no one was left out! The entrance to the GEM with its enormous Ramses II was breathtaking! We were awestruck by the Tutankhamen galleries! And all the while Marco was delivering interesting facts and myths. The last thing we visited was the boat museum. This was fascinating with a huge boat that has been reconstructed inside the museum. If I were coming back to Egypt, I would hire Marco for all my tours!

Marco was wonderful and the perfect guide. He was incredibly knowledgeable and the perfect gentleman to show us the Grand Meseam. Humorous and lovable. Driver Ayman was a most careful driver and certainly knew how to navigate that 8 lane highway! Very friendly as well! Thank you for a day we will never forget!

Hussein welcomed us very well. The visit to the museum was very pleasant. He showed us and explained as many things as possible. In addition, he speaks very good French. I can only recommend this visit.

The Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM) is brand new hall with comfortable AC and room to roam without ever feeling crowded. A wealth of artifacts to view up close including the Tutankhamun Exhibit and Khufu's Solar Boat. We had a great private tour through Deluxe Tours Egypt. Ibrahim was our guide and he did an excellent job taking us through the museum at an informative and leisurley pace. We were picked up promptly at our hotel in the morning and dropped back off at the hotel in the late afternoon after our visit to the GEM.

Our driver to the GEM was on time and an excellent driver. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable about Egyptian history. The whole experience was fantastic. I highly recommend this tour.

An incredible and very well structured museum for people with reduced mobility. Thank you to our guide Hussein who made this tour complete and respected our rhythm.

Nevin was fantastic throughout the whole tour. She’s highly respected and trusted amongst both her clients and colleagues throughout the city. Nevin not only has impressive knowledge, but is also great company, and is very flexible to make the most out of your day.

Wow an amazing trip. Nevin scheduled around us and was so welcoming. We did so much in the short space of time we had. She gave us so much information, took amazing photos, arranged a delightful camel ride and even managed to get us a lovely fresh Egyptian falafel for lunch. Oh and she’s good company too.

The museum was nice. The Egyptologist, Hassan, definitely gave professor vibes. He was knowledgeable and precise but a little socially awkward, felt like I was back on a school field trip. It is more of curated tour in the museum. If you prefer to walk around and look at what your heart desires, then don’t opt for a guide. Our driver Khalid was great and good company. The lunch was good but our tour guide forgot we had it in our tour and I had to remind him. We mentioned wanting to do a boat ride on the Nile and they were able to make that happen. It was perfect time and peaceful. And it ended at a good time to have the other half of the day to do whatever. I would recommend this tour for a more chill day. We did this tour after doing a pyramid tour which was a lot but it balances out well.

We had a lovely day out with Nevin. She picked us up from the hotel as arranged and then we drove over to Giza and she gave us lots of info about Cairo, new and old. She made everything so easy, being able to park up nearby and sorted our tickets for us. She knew all the good routes round the site and good photo spots, we have so many amazing photos! We felt so comfortable and even enjoyed some amazing falafel with hummus and aubergine on the way back to the hotel.
