Detailed itinerary of the 2 Days Cairo Museums Tour

Day 1: Land in Egypt and Start exploring Museums: At the Cairo International Airport, a representative of “Egypt Fun Tours” will give you a warm welcome and help you with the formalities of your arrival before one of our knowledgeable tour guides transports you to some of the museums in Cairo, among them:

The Egyptian Antiquities Museum: The Egyptian Museum, or The Museum of Egyptian Antiquities, located in Cairo, Egypt, is the oldest archaeological museum in the Middle East and one of the largest and most important museums of ancient history in the world.

It houses an extensive collection of Pharaonic antiquities, including artefacts from Tutankhamun’s tomb, and provides insight into the rich history and culture of Egypt. The collection consists of approximately 120,000 items, with only a fraction of them on display at any given time due to the limited space.

The museum was founded in 1858 by French Egyptologist Auguste Mariette, and its exhibits span from prehistoric Egypt to the Roman period. It is a popular destination for tourists interested in history and archaeology.

The National Museum of Egyptian Civilization:

The National Museum of Egyptian Civilization (NMEC) is a large museum located in Old Cairo, Egypt. The museum focuses on the rich and diverse history of Egyptian civilization throughout the ages, from prehistoric times all the way up to modern-day Egypt.

The NMEC is the first of its kind in Egypt and the Arab world, providing an in-depth look into the art, culture, and daily life of ancient Egyptians.

The Coptic Museum is a must-visit for anyone interested in the history of Egypt or Coptic Christianity, showcasing an extensive collection that offers a unique perspective on the country’s rich cultural heritage.

Wonderful tour with the guide Hamada. I did not feel rushed at all, he explained a lot of facts about the city, the mosque , the water storage room, and also brought me to no hassle shops. He picked a great place to eat and have Turkish coffee and a cold lemon mint drink. We took a took took when we got tired from walking. He also happens to be a great photographer and helped take beautiful pictures. Overall a wonderful tour and great experience.
