The Museo Egizio in Turin has one of the largest collections of Egyptian artefacts in the world, after the Cairo Museum. This museum is certainly somewhere you must visit if you are in Turin and indeed is one of the “must see” museums in the whole of Italy. With an expert guide you will appreciate the very best of the treasures on display.
On this 2.5 hour tour in the company of a very knowledgeable guide you take a journey back in time to see mummies, hieroglyphs and papyrus. Your guide will tell you about the golden age in Egypt, learn about the Gods they worshipped, the kind of life they led and the ingenuity of the people who built the pyramids. Amongst the many wonderful archaeological finds there is the intact tome of Kha and Merit and “the Royal List” that contains the name of all the pharaohs and of course a sphinx.
This private tour is highly recommended so that you make the most of your visit to this fascinating museum.
