Definitely join this tour! Marco is an excellent guide, and he can explain so much in 2.5 hours. The museum is huge, but he narrows it down to the most important information. After the tour, you can stay in the museum and devel deeper into anything you’d like. If you short on time, this tour is perfect!

Fantastic visit to the museum with Nadia, who has the advantage of being from Turin, knowing the museum very well, and also speaking perfect French. The 2-hour visit allows for getting to the essentials, covering different eras, and stopping at the most important pieces in the museum. A visit that makes you want to come back!

C'est un plaisir de savoir que cette expérience vous a donné envie de revenir. Nous espérons avoir le plaisir de vous accueillir de nouveau lors d'une prochaine visite en Italie.
Our guide Laura was passionate and interesting, and she conveyed 4000 years of beautiful stories in 2 hours. We didn't notice the time passing because it was so great (according to Anna). 🥰🤩🇪🇬
Merci beaucoup pour ce magnifique retour ! Nous sommes ravis que Laura ait su vous transmettre toute sa passion et rendre ces 2 heures si captivantes. Recevoir un “on n’a pas vu passer le temps” est le plus beau compliment pour une guide. Au plaisir de vous accueillir à nouveau en Italie !
