Tour Overview
Enjoy your visit to the Grand Egyptian Museum, a truly remarkable institution that brings the wonders of ancient Egypt to life!
When the Grand Egyptian Museum fully opens to the public in mid-2025 (estimated), it will be the largest archaeological museum complex in the world and host to more than 100,000 artifacts. For the first time ever, King Tut’s entire treasure collection will be on display alongside artifacts from pre-historic times through Egypt’s many thousands of years of pharaonic civilization through the [comparatively] more modern ancient Greek and Roman periods of Egyptian history.
