Magnificent, monumental museum in the image of the pyramids... Don't hesitate to take half a day (4 hours) to see it all. There are also several reasonably-priced restaurants. We personally chose the Zooba restaurant with its Mazzat Tray and freshly squeezed fruit juices.

The best thing about this tour was the tour guide; and the handicap or accessiblity services (wheelchair), etc. It's hard to navigate in a wheelchair when in a group setting, but we did our best. I have some tips that I will be writring the museum directly. But you did a great job. And of course the GEM - Grand Egyptian Museum is spectacular and a must see in Cario.

SMOOTHNESS.. from the drop-off to the pick-up, the card scanning, the staff help and linguistic skills and the planning of the visit inside the Museum, just made it all memorable. The arrival by car is still incomplete long trip for U-turn to acces if coming from Cairo DT. also improving signage for drivers to show where pick-up is would help a lot.

    I loved the museum. No problem with the entrance, no queues! I missed that the audio guides only had two languages: Arabic and English. As well as the information panels of the exhibits. Why not in Spanish as well?
