Egyptian Museum and Grand Egyptian Museum Day Tour from Cairo

Overview

On this day tour from Cairo you will explore the rich heritage of ancient Egypt at two of its most important institutions: the Egyptian Museum and the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM). At the Egyptian Museum you will walk among extensive collections of artefacts, mummies and treasures, and you'll see highlights such as King Tutankhamun’s golden mask while learning about everyday life, beliefs and funerary practices from ancient times. The tour also includes a visit to the Grand Egyptian Museum, where modern displays and a vast collection of antiquities aim to present Egypt’s past in a new context. Please note the Grand Egyptian Museum is not fully open, so some galleries or exhibits may be unavailable on the day. Along the way you will gain insight into how ancient objects relate to Egyptian culture and history, and you will have the chance to appreciate both the archaeological finds and the ways they are presented for visitors today.
