This was one of the coolest museums I’ve visited! There were way more artifacts than I had expected! I spent a good two hours thoroughly reading some of the plaques and taking all of the history in. The staff were also really nice and friendly. I highly recommend visiting this museum!

Took advantage of the 1 Euro admission fee on Sunday. It’s a good place to visit, especially earlier part of the morning - before the crowd comes in. The writings for the display is easy to read and understand. Some of the multimedia interactives are excellent. Like that we just need to follow the golden line on the floor that guides us through all the exhibits. Excellent for a quick history back to old times of Egypt 👍

Excellent exhibition of the Egyptian eras presented in a fascinating and interesting way. Great idea guiding the the visitors along a golden time line. Stunning architecture seamlessly taking the visitor back into the Egyptian times. Great visual and guide, exceptionally well designed digital presentation educating the visitors along a on his/her way through the museum. Kudos to such a rich and insightful visitor experience! Go and visit!!!

If someone is into Ancient Egypt it's great, otherwise it can be a tad boring. The exhibitions are split into eras and different aspects of life. I recommended going on Sunday as tickets are 1 euro. Leave yourself around 2 hours for this museum.

The museum is very detailed with in depth explanations as well as an audio guide. It is an amazing representation of Egypt's history and art. I would visit again!
