My wife and I attended the Dallas event in May and it was worth the 6 hour drive from Arkansas to see it! This was a once in a lifetime opportunity to see the actual King Tut sarcophagus and other treasures that I have read about in books all my life! I highly recommend those interested in the Pharoahs and King Tut relics attend this event!
Well worth the price paid and a real value!!

I found the Tut Exhibit in Dallas to be most interesting and worthwhile. The layout of the exhibit was good and the artifacts were truly amazing. The write-ups and audio narratives were very informative. Would definitely recommend seeing.

My daughter and I enjoyed this exhibit very much. If it was to come back to town we would most likely visit again. My daughter is very interested in Egypt, and this exhibit was very informative for her. Thank you for this experience.

I took my mother as a very early birthday present, and it was worth the money to go see it! I wasn't alive when the exhibit was here 30 years ago, and since it won't come back to the US anymore, I had to go see it, and take the one person who could appreciate it.
The items in the exhibit do not look like they are 3000+ years old, and the artistic creativity on some of the items are incredible, I recommend going as a special opportunity, since it will NEVER come back to the United States every again!

My son and I had the best time at the exhibit. It is TRULY amazing looking at the artifacts that I had only seen in books especially the chair that an Egyptian princess had used and it is in great condition now and also the two figurines of King Tut with the lower and upper kingdom crowns absolutely amazing.
This is an exhibit to see and take your children to see and appreciate the beauty of ancient Egypt.

My mother and I attended the King Tut event because both of us had long been fascinated by ancient Egypt. We enjoyed it overall, as the displays and artifacts were amazing and fascinating. I was especially awed by the skill and craftsmanship that was obvious in the jewelry, carvings, and pottery that had been preserved so well for so long. We were somewhat disappointed that the mummy and sarcophagus of King Tut himself were not included in the exhibit, as the publicity offerings for the event made it seem like Tut himself would be there, and not just a selection of his possessions. I was also disappointed that there were no books, postcards, or photos of my favorite object in the exhibit: the jeweled collar made with a lump of glass that was created from lightning striking the desert sand. The price of admission was also somewhat high to me, which may have made the exhibit too expensive for many people. However, those items in the exhibit were certainly worth seeing, and I am glad we made the trip to see them.

The exhibit was definitely worth the price. I recommend the audio tour as well. It contains information not available on the display cards by each object. The Dallas Museum of Art handled the large amount of people very well. Even though the line to enter was long, I did not wait more than five minutes before entering the exhibit. That was on the last Friday evening that the artifacts were in Dallas.

My family and I were visiting San Francisco as part of our holiday in California this year. There was alot of advertisements throughout the city for this exhibition which enticed us into visiting. We were sold tickets for a specific time slot as we were informed that the museum limit the number of people in the exhibition at any one time. Given that, we were somewhat surprised and very disappointed to find how overcrowded it was. Clearly too many people were allowed to enter in each time slot.
Only a small part of the exhibition had artifacts from the tomb of Tutankhamun. The famous 'Death Mask' which heads the publicity for the exhibition was absent. I found this very disappointing and misleading. Have spent a considerable amount of money on tickets I feel that I have been cheated.

Went into the exhibit with extreme reluctance because I thought I learned all about him in school. Needless to say it was an amazing exhibit that made me want to research and learn even more about him and that era. I definitely recommend it.

While the Exhibit itself was great, the organization of the line, taking coats, umbrellas, standing in the line, was a bit disheveled, frustrating, and anti-climatic a lead up. The actual display was visually stimulating, though a bit too many people at one time. This is difficult to determine as everyone studies each room at different rates of time, at different ages.

This was an exhibit of items from the King Tut tomb BUT not King Tut himself. It would have been a great exhibit if King Tut would have been on display so not having him there makes it only an average rating.

I arrived very early in the morning so the lines were not very long. The staff was very helpful. I enjoyed the exhibit but was a little disappointed that more of the items on display were from Tut's tomb. There seemed to be so many items from other tombs as filler.

Saw the King Tut exhibit in Chicago in the late 1970's at the Field Museum. That exhibit was overwhelmingly more dramatic than this one. The number, type and method of display of the artifacts in the previous exhibit makes this one dull in comparison.
Some of the displays were placed too closely to one another for the best viewing.
For the first time visitor it was a good representation.

The exhibit was truly a unique experience. Seeing all the original museum artifacts was amazing. And transporting yourself to that era was humbling. The level of knowledge and expertise from the egyptian culture was truly remarkable. You learn to respect other cultures for their value and contribution to mankind. Of course what would make this exhibit the best in the world is actually seeing king tut's mummy, but I know that so far that is impossible. Good for teenagers and beyond. Small kids might get bored.

My family and I were thoroughly impressed. This was historical. My kids, who are not easily entertained (except for video games), thought the exhibit was great. They really listened and were able to repeat things they learned. They were most impressed that he became king at such a young age. I read reviews were people were not impressed because King Tuts body was not part of the exhibit, but I didn’t feel that I they exhibit was lacking because of this fact. If you decide to view the exhibit, get the head phones to hear about all the amazing artifacts and stories.
