Definitely worth the Visit!!
We highly recommend seeing it even though the Grand Egyptian Museum is not open yet. And we recommend you use a Guide to cover the Egyptian Museum and the Civilization Museum (where all the big-name mummies are located). You can cover both museums in 1 day. Pink Lotus Tours, Cairo, provide AMAZING guides.

A MUST SEE in Egypt!
The Egyptian Museum still houses King Tut's treasures and so many artifacts that illuminate the ancient history and culture of Egypt. You cannot go to Egypt and not visit the Egyptian Museum. Its collection is world-renowned. I recommend having a guide that is an Egyptologist to get the most out of your visit and tour at the Egyptian Museum. They know the history and the most important pieces for you to see, and can answer your many questions. Around Egypt Tours is the absolute best at organizing and facilitating Tours around Egypt, and the Egyptian Museum is no exception. When you work with Around Egypt Tours, I recommend you request Ahmed Prince who is an Egyptologist and PHENOMENAL storyteller who brings the Egyptian Museum to LIFE! I've visited the Egyptian Museum twice now and I've never learned so much in an hour or two than when I had the greatest tour with Around Egypt Tour's Ahmed Prince inside the museum. Hands down, the best! If you are visiting without an Egyptologist or Tour guide, take your time and explore the museum on your own. It's winding staircase and filled floors will captivate you all on its own. There is so much to see here. In the near future, the Grand Egyptian Museum will open and house so much of Egyptian history and artifacts, and it'll be massive. So to have an enriching experience with just the right amount of space and artifacts to explore for an entire day, be sure to visit this Egyptian Museum in Cairo!
