Part I: The Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM)
Stepping into the Future on the Grand Egyptian Museum & Egyptian Museum Tour
Your adventure begins at the spectacular Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), the largest museum dedicated to a single civilization. Located near the Giza Pyramids, this magnificent, advanced building serves as a modern guardian of the pharaonic past.
- Advanced Science and Scale: The GEM is a massive structure, aligned perfectly with the Pyramids, and is home to one of the biggest conservation centers in the Middle East. It is designed to house over 100,000 artifacts in its state-of-the-art halls.
- Tutankhamun’s Legacy: The GEM’s crown jewel is its exhibition dedicated to the complete, stunning collection of artifacts from the tomb of Tutankhamun (over 5,000 pieces), all displayed together for the first time.
- Colossal Displays: You will also marvel at gigantic pieces like the 11-meter colossus of Ramses II and the Hanging Obelisk. Exploring this monumental display of history sets the stage for the rest of your Grand Egyptian Museum & Egyptian Museum Tour.
Part II: The Historical Egyptian Museum (Tahrir)
Classic Charms on Your Grand Egyptian Museum & Egyptian Museum Tour
Following your exploration of the modern GEM, your private vehicle will transport you to the historic Egyptian Museum located in Tahrir Square. This venerable building, inaugurated in 1902, represents the classic era of Egyptian archaeology.
- Historical Significance: The Egyptian Museum (sometimes referred to as the Museum of Egyptian Antiquities) offers a charming, classic view of the country’s treasures. While many key pieces have been transferred to the GEM, it still houses an irreplaceable collection that sheds light on over 5,000 years of history.
- Remaining Collections: This museum continues to feature exceptional collections of artifacts from the pre-dynastic period through the Greco-Roman era, including statuary, jewelry, and mummies, offering a fascinating glimpse into the rich history of the ancient Egyptian civilization.
- Architectural Contrast: The building itself, with its grand architecture and traditional display cases, provides a powerful contrast to the modern, minimalist design of the GEM, enriching your overall Grand Egyptian Museum & Egyptian Museum Tour.
