Luxor Museum and Mummification Museum Tour

This private Luxor Museum and Mummification Museum tour takes you to two museums on the Nile Corniche of Luxor. It starts at 10 am with pickup from your hotel and lasts about 6 hours, travelling in a private air-conditioned vehicle.

It is a good choice for a cooler, indoor day between temple visits, or for anyone curious about how the ancient Egyptians prepared their dead for the afterlife.

What you will see

• Luxor Museum – a carefully displayed collection of statues, reliefs and objects found in the Theban area, including pieces from the temples and tombs around Luxor.
• Mummification Museum – a smaller museum explaining the embalming process step by step, with tools, materials, coffins and mummified animals.

Good to know

Choose the option that fits your plans: car with driver only, car and guide, car with guide and entry tickets, or the full option with lunch as well. Bottled water, taxes and transfers are part of every option.

Both museums sit close to each other on the Corniche, so there is little time spent in the car and plenty of time inside. The museums are indoors, which makes this tour comfortable even on hot afternoons. Photography rules can differ between museums, so check at the entrance before taking pictures.

Wear comfortable shoes, as you will spend most of the visit on your feet walking through the galleries.
