    Worth a look

    As others have noted this place is pretty small so you only need 30-60 minutes. The big highlight here is that there are actually signs on the displays so you can learn about mumification as well as some about the burials trappings etc. Also, it’s...More

    A tourist trap, a lot of fake stuff in the displays

    We saw a lot of fake itmes on display and the mumification information is minimal. The only positive thing is that you can cool down from the heat outside.

    Small and interesting

    It's not cairo museum but has some interesting exhibits especially the mummies, though I expected more. Still a cool place to spend an hour out of the sun.

    Small museum

    It takes less than an hour to visit this very small museum but it is an worthwhile visit. The price of 80 LE goes with the size of the place. If you already know a lot about Egyptology, you won't learn anything new but seeing...More

    Small Museum

    This is a very small museum with only a few exhibits. We had walked from our hotel which was about 25mins away but only spent about 20 mins in the museum. As with all museums in Egypt they are very dimly lit.

    VIST TO MUMIFICATION MUSEM REVIEW
