You get to know a lot about the King Tuthankamhun, you go back into history and get awestruck with the life and possibilities that the king lived in. Truly mesmerising! What you see is all excavated recently and placed all together in one museum

your Cairo tour is not complete if you have not spent at least 4-5 hours inside this GEM! Be prepared for a lot of walking, and be prepared to behold the amazing artivlcles of King Tut’s tomb and many many other marvels of Egyptian history.

Once you paid for the E-ticket you have to wait atleast 24-48hours before GEM accepts and release your E-ticket. once you received it, you can immediately scan it in the main entrance. No need to go to the ticketing counters. TIP! Go to the museum as early as possible so you have the entire museum to yourself!

The building's exterior is magnificent, and the collection is very, very rich. Moreover, the biggest difference from other museums in Egypt is that the artifacts are well-protected and exhibited, not like a warehouse. The two days a week with extended closing hours are a great boon for travelers, after all, with such full daily schedules, it's really hard to free up an entire day to visit a museum.

Visiting the Grand Egyptian Museum was an unforgettable experience! The museum is absolutely stunning, with incredible ancient Egyptian artifacts, magnificent statues, and fascinating historical treasures. The architecture is beautiful, and every section offers a glimpse into Egypt’s rich history and civilization. The skip-the-line ticket made entry convenient and hassle-free. A must-visit attraction for anyone visiting Cairo! Highly recommended for history lovers and tourists. 🇪🇬✨

One of the best experiences in Egypt. The Grand Museum is really grand. If you are really into history and have fascination towards Egyptian civilisation then hiring a guide is recommended. Otherwise there is plenty to see. Don't miss the children's section if travelling with kids. They will love it. The best part was Tutankhamen's section. Do visit the boat museum and have good lunch in the food court.
