    What you'll see and do

    1. Luxor Museum

      At 08.00am you will be picked up from your hotel to start your half day tour visiting Luxor Museum and Mummification Museum. Start the day visiting the Luxor Museum located in the Egyptian city of Luxor (ancient Thebes). Inaugurated in 1975, the museum is housed in a small, purpose-built building. The range of artifacts on display is far more restricted than the country’s main collections in the Museum of Antiquities in Cairo; this was, however, deliberate, since the museum prides itself on the quality of the pieces it has, the uncluttered way in which they are displayed, and the clear multilingual labeling used. Then Transfer to Mummification museum It is located in the Egyptian city of Luxor. It stands on the corniche, in front of the Mina Palace Hotel, to the north of Luxor Temple, overlooking the River Nile. The museum is intended to provide visitors with an understanding of the ancient art of mummification. The Ancient Egyptians applied embalming techniques to many species, not only to dead humans. Later transfer back to your hotel in Luxor.

    A few good displays but nit worth the visit for 400 EGP

    Not worth the 400 EGP to visit. Takes only 45 minutes to visit. They open at 5:00 PM in the Evenings.

    Response from the operator: thank you for visiting us and making your trip. We’re glad that you found what you were looking for. It is our goal that you are always happy with what you do with us. Hope to see you again in Egypt.

    Nothing special

    Maybe because it was at the end of the tour and we were so tired, or maybe because we went after visiting the temples and valley of the kings, but whatever the reason was, we didn’t enjoy this venue. It did have the first mummified corpse we’ve seen, so there was that, but other than that this place was less than average. We didn’t like the way the ticket clerk treated us either, he demanded an ID to confirm we were Arabs or Egyptians, even though we clearly look it. We understand there are laws, but he could’ve been more gracious in asking. He did eventually let us buy the tickets when we said we didn’t want to go in, but maybe that had something with us not enjoying as well.

    Visit to museums

    We had a very nice visit to two museums with our guide Ekran! She explained the history with a lot of detail and knowledge. Both museums are fairly small so this was a great way to pass 2 hours out of the sun. We enjoyed seeing both museums and would recommend this tour.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for sharing your views and experience with Travel To Egypt. We are so pleased to see how happy you are on your trip. Your review is highly appreciated and is very important to us and the community of whom thinking about traveling soon. Thank you again! Travel To Egypt Team.

    Nice tour of 2 museums

    This is a nice tour to see the excavation of Luxor and the mummies found. The two museums aren’t very big, so you can easily do this tour in 2-3 hours. Ekran was a very nice guide and explained the history very well. We would recommend this tour if you want to leave your hotel and see some history indoors (to stay away from the heat & sun).

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for sharing your views and experience with Travel To Egypt. We are so pleased to see how happy you are on your trip. Your review is highly appreciated and is very important to us and the community of whom thinking about traveling soon. Thank you again! Travel To Egypt Team.

    A refreshing experience in Luxor

    The absolute delicate and beauty of our entire tour is without words. One must experience to believe and digest history with an exception tour guide ( Alaa Elfasny) to boot. I'm grateful not only for our guide but his patience and knowledge of the city of Luxor...you will be in good hands.

    Response from the operator: Dear Esteemed Guest, Thank you so much for sharing your views and experience with Travel To Egypt. We are so pleased to see how happy you are on your trip.

    Museum of Luxor and Mummification Museum 4 hours Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Luxor.

    How much does Museum of Luxor and Mummification Museum 4 hours Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $35 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Luxor usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Museum of Luxor and Mummification Museum 4 hours Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Luxor is not rushed.

    Is Museum of Luxor and Mummification Museum 4 hours Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.7/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Luxor, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Museum of Luxor and Mummification Museum 4 hours Tour?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Museum of Luxor and Mummification Museum 4 hours Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Museum of Luxor and Mummification Museum 4 hours Tour?

    +

    Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Luxor can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Luxor and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Museum of Luxor and Mummification Museum 4 hours Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Luxor within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Luxor?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Luxor experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Private Half Day Luxor Tour Valley of Kings & Queens, Hatshepsut, Full Day Tour to East and West Banks of Luxor (Private), Full Day Tour of Luxor private. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Luxor?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Luxor?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Museum of Luxor and Mummification Museum 4 hours Tour?

    +

    Included: Hotel/port pickup and drop off; Private Qualified Egyptologist Tour-Guide; and Private air-conditioned car. Not included: Tipping (recommended); Any extra tours; and All Entrance Fees. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 161 listed pickup locations in and around Luxor. Be ready about 10 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Museum of Luxor and Mummification Museum 4 hours Tour offered in?
