"Went to visit this wonderful place with my 10 month old daughter! It was a lovely experience! We got a private tour with a very detailed history of the Dynasty! Our guide was the sweetest most attentive person I ever met! We got to see all the exhibits, watch a movie in the theatre and take some photos in costumes and jewellery"
"We travelled through Missasauga and were looking for an interesting place to visit"
My husband and I visited the Museum to celebrate my birthday. At first, we had trouble finding the entrance, but with direction, we were able to get inside and meet a helpful volunteer. The Museum was gorgeous, filled with replicas of King Tut's treasures, and a lovely little gift shop to visit at the end of the tour that sold everything from statues, to authentic papyrus bookmarks and scrolls. We had the museum all to ourselves, and we took a lot of photos. There was also a Coptic Church that we visited, with beautiful iconography on the walls. It was not in use when we visited it, but it was also beautiful. All payments are done via E-Transfer, and you have to book an appointment ahead of time. For us, it was $10 per person, and well worth the price. The volunteers work hard to keep the place open, and devote their time to showing people the collection. We deeply appreciate the woman who showed us around, giving us time to visit the gift shop, and answer any questions we had. If you have kids, or are wondering where to book a class trip, or have a historian in your life, I highly recommend a visit to this hidden jewel in the heart of Mississauga.

I have visited this museum on 30th November and. it was a really good experience. The whole museum was really maintained and clean and everything was like perfect and all the artifacts replicas are so detailed and everything was like up to the mark and like. we can imagine how much work has been put into these replicas. The place was huge. It has a own theatre and a gift. and a gift shop where you can buy some gifts that are. related to the Egypt and also the host was really good. She described. the history of Egypt and give me a general idea about the ancient Egypt And they were really helpful and guide me to all the artifacts and tell me about them in a really detailed manner and a special thanks to. (Amal Ernest ) the The volunteer guide.
Went to visit this wonderful place with my 10 month old daughter! It was a lovely experience! We got a private tour with a very detailed history of the Dynasty! Our guide was the sweetest most attentive person I ever met! We got to see all the exhibits, watch a movie in the theatre and take some photos in costumes and jewellery. Yes the place is small (since they are waiting for a bit for publicity and funding) but it is a fantastic adventure! If you have kids ages 5-12 they will LOVE IT! Will for sure come back with my niece! Make sure to set up an appointment before coming (that one negative reviewer clearly missed that part)

We travelled through Missasauga and were looking for an interesting place to visit. We came across the website of the Egyptian Museum. This place was a fun outing for a couple of hours and we were impressed with Emily's passion and care for this place. As they are still setting up and waiting for some more publicity there might be a few smaller things that are not running as smoothly as they could, but overall an interesting little museum with lots of cool information and many items about king Tut. We learned some interesting facts and the information and items truly made things come alive. Would be fun for a school field trip and we would love to take our kids some day!
The Egyptian Museum in MISSISSAUGA is a hidden gem, is really one of Mississauga’s landmarks, it houses great replica artefacts of well known ancient Egyptian pieces. The staff is all volunteers and does their best to provide great customer service and ensure guests have an enjoyable experience. The tour guide is very knowledgeable and was able to answer all questions and provide valuable information on Egyptian history and King Tut in specific. Our tour included a 30 minute movie on Tutankhamun and the discovery of his tomb. At the end we spent sometime at the gift shop and purchased a few souvenirs at reasonable prices. Highly recommended
What an adventure! Truly, truly a hidden gem. The museum itself was magical and filled with so many cool replicas which looked exactly like the real thing! The volunteer, Emily, was also amazing. So knowledgable and you could tell she really cared about what she was talking about, also just generally a great person! I especially loved the gift shop which was full of so many cute little memorabilia. The Egyptian Museum is the perfect thing to do if you find yourself bored in Mississauga (which, let's face it, it's Mississauga...). 10/10 would recommend. Definitely filled my adventurous heart. <3
A hidden gem in Mississauga which is a worth visit honestly! We as a family enjoyed the tour . They have maintained it so well and Emily , she is a volunteer giving her precious time to this museum. Emily is extremely knowledgeable and described the history of King Tut in depth. They have a movie theater and a small gift shop,moreover , they have some articles of egyptian clothes to try and can take photos. You must book the appointment. Emily was kind enough to give my son with a gift as well.

My son loves Egypt history and he was the one find this museum online. I was hesitant to visit at first. But we were so surprised and plan to revisit again. The museum is not big. It is about 5-6 big rooms. Main focus on tomb of Tutankhamun. It shows many replica of artifacts from tomb of Tutankhamun. But the replica are really in good detail and in the actual size. We “feel” we really in front of all these treasures. We were impressed. The museum also includes 30 min of YouTube video about Tutankhamun. Hope this museum can continue to grow bigger
One in a million experience!! What a museum and what a guide! I visited the museum with my parents, and Emily assisted us as our guide. We were awed by the artifacts. Emily's immense knowledge about Egyptian history and culture contributed towards increasing our knowledge on the same. We bought souvenirs, and for sure Emily helped us decide the best. Thank you staff, management and Emily for introducing us to one of the best cultures! Regards and love, Liza

This is a little, hidden Mississauga gem. It is a work in progress, but very intimate experience. While all exhibits are reproductions (similar to most museums around the world btw), this is probably the only place you can see the exhibits so up close. Emily is really passionate about the museum and it's future, and the visit is more enjoyable with her guided tour. I hope with more visitors and funding this can expand to its own place. Things to note: - You need to book an appointment ahead - Carry cash or use Interac for the gift shop
FORTEMENT RECOMMANDÉ...Une activité qui vous transporte 5000 ans avant J.-C. Cette visite valait vraiment le détour pour quiconque de tout âge qui est passionné d'égyptologie! Juste du positif! Un acceuil chaleureux et dévoué par Mme Amal Ernest précède une visite guidée dans une reconstitution fidèle du tombeau de Toutankhamon. Belle petite boutique de souvenir( tous importés d'Égypte). un rapport qualité/prix incomparable!

I went there with my friends and it was really good. We made a reservation and went there, we were given a warm welcome as on reaching. The guide helped us learning different things about the artifacts history. We were treated with full care. The museum itself it very good. Me with my friend wore the Egyptian robe there for free and got good photos. The guide in museum is very polite and knowledgeable about the artifacts in the museum. I will recommend everyone to go visit the museum there in Mississauga.
This is a great non-profit organization. Emily, a volunteer, was very informative in the tour. You learn about King Tut and see some authentic replicas of the artifacts found in his tomb. The museum is located within a building shared with a college. It's a nice place to learn about Egypt that doesn't require you to drive throughout Toronto. As it's run by volunteers, you do have to book a tour in advance.

From booking our visit until the end of our tour, we were treated like royalty! The exhibits were well organized, our guide was knowledgeable and enthusiastic, and was Egyptian/Canadian! We got to dress up, write our names in hieroglyphs, watch an informative video and take photos. They were also thoughtful and generous as they played "happy birthday' and presented my mother with a small gift for her 70th birthday celebration! We highly recommend this budding gem of a museum.
The Egyptian Museum was a great place to visit they had a gift shop movie theatre and a exhibit (obviously) there were replicas of jewelry masks and weapons . Emily told us about king tut and showed us his mummy’s copy. Emily explained everything in details she even gave us gifts before we left. We were allowed to try on clothes and jewelry there and take some pictures. I would definitely recommend this Museum to everyone.

We are very appreciative of the time with lady 5 stars isn't enough it's more like 10.
Visited the Egyptian Museum today. It is a hidden gem in Mississauga. The place is filled with sculptures highlighting Egyptian culture and history. The guide, Emily, made the tour interesting with her knowledge and commentary. It definitely made my day and a strong recommendation from my side for everyone to check this place out

We went today after confirming with the website that they were open, but when we arrived, the doors were locked, the building looked abandoned, and we could not reach anyone by phone. The number listed on Google was incorrect, but no one answered the number listed on the website. This facility appears to be a scam and in no way, appears to be a legitimate museum with the funding for a genuine Egyptian exhibit.
I went in February, I loved the tour, but I didn't get a chance to see the film because it was down. I hope you all get a chance to enjoy the film when you go there. I will definitely come back next time and hopefully to be able to watch the film at that time. The woman that works there, she is very friendly and nice person.

This museum gives a basic start into the Egyptian history and their culture. I had great time learning about it from Emily (our tour guide) who very enthusiastically and patiently explained every detail. The gift shop also had good souvenir collection to buy and clothes to try on and takes snaps.

I was delighted to find out about an Egyptian Museum right here in Mississauga. It was very fun to visit this extremely dedicated yet low-key gem! I hope that it can expand its operations beyond the school in the future. It has real potential, it's a much-needed dash of Egypt in Canada.

This was a fun experience for all ages in our group, little kids to seniors. It was definitely very informative too. Kids got to write their names in holographic and try out Pharoah costumes. There was also a short informative movie. The tour guided by Emily was very engaging. Even the little ones listened through and asked lots of questions. I definitely recommend.
Our family's visit to the Egyptian Museum was such a treat! The museum is a hidden gem of Mississauga. Emily is a wonderful guide and provides a great depth of knowledge of Egypt's history through the millennia. At the end of the tour, our sons, ages 8 and 4, learned how to write their names in hyrogliphics. This is a fantastic place for the whole family to visit!
Egyptian Museum is a hidden gem in Mississauga. My 5 years old son love this place. Thanks Emily's hospitality and introduction about Pharaoh Tutankhamun. We saw all his clothes, chair, tomb, statue, facial mask, jewelry, parents and so on. The authentic antique for Pharaoh Tutankhamun is stored at Cairo, it's worth visit some day.
Amazing in depth tour of King Tut's tomb w exact replicas of artifacts. Emily(guide) was very informative. A wealth of knowledge. The gift shop had authentic Egyptian porcelain mugs and other cute jewelry pieces. The museum is a must visit.

Today's field trip to Egyptian Museum was a blast! Grade 4 students really enjoyed the trip. We learned many things about Ancient Egypt, enjoyed writing our names in Egyptian hieroglyphs, liked the trivia and the prizes we won! I would highly recommend this trip to Grades 4 students! It was an amazing trip! :)
I went today with my two school-aged children. Paid $10/person to do a tour with volunteer, Emily. Cannot say enough great things about this little museum. It was interactive and engaging. We learned so much in the hour.

I visited the museum 18th of May 2022. Such a beautiful replicas. Emily was very informative and welcoming. However, it needs to have a separate entrance and place then the school because the museum is located in a part of a school.
It was an amazing experience. Emily gave us a detailed tour and it was definitely memorable. A hidden gem for sure

It helped bring the history of pre-Exodus Egypt into perspective. Interesting place to possibly visit during Passover.
Loved the museum! It was well organized and laid out and I look forward to coming back again with friends and family!
Lovely and welcoming staff, their King Tut collection coming from the Cairo Museum is beautiful. Thank you!
Thank you for the wonderful tour Emily, you were so informative Matthew and I enjoyed ourselves …
Great museum. Great tour by Emilie. My three girls loved the outing.
Cannot seem to get a call back.
