Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM) Private Half-Day Egyptologist Tour

Overview

You'll enter the Grand Egyptian Museum with a licensed Egyptologist to guide you through one of the world's most important archaeological collections. The museum is home to King Tutankhamun's complete treasures, shown together for the first time in history, so you will see the boy king's gold mask, his throne and his chariots among other pieces. As you move through the soaring atrium, you will pass the towering statue of Ramses II and ascend the Grand Staircase lined with royal monuments before reaching the main galleries. This is a private, unhurried experience with no fixed script and no large group to keep up with. You can linger at Tutankhamun's golden mask as long as you like, ask the questions you've always wondered about, and hear the stories behind the objects from someone who has studied them. Along the way your guide will take time to explain details that many tours rush past in twenty minutes, giving you space to explore the collection at your own pace.
