The experience
A representative picks you up from your hotel or airport in a private air-conditioned car and drives you to the Grand Egyptian Museum in Giza. The museum was built to house the world's most comprehensive collection of ancient Egyptian artifacts: over 50,000 objects that span 7,000 years. You move through galleries at your own pace with a guide who speaks English, Spanish, Italian, French or one of several other languages, depending on which option you book. A bottle of water comes with you in the vehicle.
The museum integrates the artifacts with entertainment, culture and learning spaces designed so visitors can connect to the objects and to each other. You see pieces that represent the full sweep of Egyptian history and culture, not just the famous dynasties. After your time inside, the same driver takes you back to your hotel or airport, completing the excursion in roughly four hours total.
What’s included
- Hotel or airport pickup and return in a private air-conditioned vehicle.
- a multilingual guide.
- one bottle of water on board.
