Walked around Turin for a bit then toured the Egyptian Museum. Highly recommend the museum. Total tour of 3 hours was a bit much for second day of trip while being severely jet lagged but thru no fault of the tour.

<p>This museum is full of history, a truly memorable experience. Our guide was enthusiastic and knew every detail regarding this museum and about its history. Now we have a much better understanding of Egyptian life from 4,000 years ago. I highly recommend this tour!</p>

Tour del centro storico di Torino, stupendo. Tour del Museo Egizio FAVOLOSO. Ma cio' che ha reso possibile tutto cio' e' la preprazione e professionalità della guida che ci ha preso letteralmente per mano e ci ha condotti in questo racconto strepitoso. Unico rammarico non ricordare il nome della nostra guida......

Un tour bellissimo con una guida bravissima. Grande competenza e professionalità. Mi ha fatto conoscere la storia di Torino e mi ha portato nell’antico Egitto con tanta simpatia e preparazione.
