Royal mummies exhibit is amazing - I’m surprised this museum hasn’t got more reviews, it’s exceptional! The upstairs is an interesting collection but the Royal Mummies downstairs are the real draw. We visited on the last day of our 2 week trip and I found it incredible to be face to face with the very people who had built the temples and tombs we had visited. It’s really well laid out but recommend go early before the crowds arrives, it was getting busy when we left and some tourists were behaving badly (speaking loudly and taking photos, both not allowed).

Photo Tour of Islamic Cairo and Pyramids with Sarah was Fantastic! - We went on this tour on our first morning in Egypt and I'm so happy we did! It was the perfect way to get acclimated to the beautiful chaos that is Cairo. Sarah, our guide, was perfect. She was extremely knowledgeable and taught us all about the history of Khan al Khalili and the Pyramids. Her excitement in showing us all the history was contagious. Everyone request Sarah to be your guide!

Good museum but not Wow - The museum is good in general. The mummies section is great but should be under more control. Visitors don’t respect the fact that mummies are dead humans. The rest of the museum is not well organized and can use more displays.

Lovely new museum - An immense museum that they have built which is state of the art and where we can see all the mummies in a swankier display. The timings are a bit too weird as they close by 5 pm but they should look at extending it by couple of hours atleast.
