Description

For the first time in history, all 5,000 treasures of Tutankhamun are united under one roof — and this is your private guided access to all of it. The Grand Egyptian Museum is the largest archaeological museum on earth. Your certified Egyptologist brings every artifact to life — from the golden burial mask and royal chariots to the personal belongings of the boy pharaoh who ruled at just nine years old. Your day covers three unforgettable stops: The Grand Hall — 70+ monumental statues, the colossal Ramesses II, and a panoramic Pyramids view. The Khufu Solar Boat — a 4,500-year-old cedar vessel built without a single nail to carry a pharaoh into eternity. The Tutankhamun Galleries — 5,000 artifacts displayed together for the first time. We collect you from your Cairo or Giza hotel in a private air-conditioned vehicle. No group crowds. No wasted time. Just you, your guide. Private tour. Certified Egyptologist. Hotel pickup included. Your Egypt moment starts here.

Itinerary

15 min

Ramesses II Obelisk — Grand Egyptian Museum Begin your journey at the world's first suspended obelisk — a breathtaking feat of modern engineering honoring ancient craftsmanship. Originally transported from the royal city of Tanis, this towering monument is displayed so visitors can walk directly beneath it, reading the royal cartouches and hieroglyphic inscriptions from below. No photograph prepares you for the scale of it in person.

Admission included15 min

Colossal Statue of Ramesses II At the heart of the Grand Hall stands one of the most powerful sculptures ever created — the colossal statue of Ramesses II, Egypt's greatest pharaoh. Discovered in Memphis and painstakingly relocated, this towering figure commands the entire entrance hall. Your Egyptologist will reveal the symbolism carved into every detail, bringing 3,000 years of royal legacy to life before your eyes.

Admission included60 min

The Grand Staircase Ascend one of the most dramatic architectural spaces in the world. The Grand Staircase spans six floors across 6,000 square meters, lined with 70+ monumental royal statues, stelae, columns, and sarcophagi arranged in chronological order. As you climb, 5,000 years of Egyptian civilization unfolds around you — culminating in a panoramic terrace view of the Pyramids of Giza that will leave you speechless.

Admission included30 min

Khufu Solar Boat Step into the presence of a 4,500-year-old miracle of ancient engineering. The Solar Boat of King Khufu — hand-crafted from Lebanese cedar and assembled without a single nail — was buried beside the Great Pyramid to carry the pharaoh alongside the sun god Ra on his eternal journey. Fully restored and displayed with state-of-the-art technology, this is one of the oldest intact wooden vessels on earth and an unmissable highlight of the GEM.

Admission included90 min

Tutankhamun Galleries This is the moment. For the first time in history, the complete Tutankhamun collection — all 5,000 artifacts from his legendary tomb — is displayed together under one roof. Walk through 12 curated galleries tracing the life, reign, and afterlife of the boy pharaoh who rose to power at just nine years old. His golden mask, royal chariots, sacred jewellery, ceremonial weapons, and deeply personal belongings are all here, each one telling a story your Egyptologist guide will make unforgettable.

Admission included30 min

Permanent Galleries Close your visit with a walk through the GEM's twelve permanent exhibition halls, spanning an extraordinary 700,000 BC to the Roman era in 394 AD. From prehistoric artifacts to the height of pharaonic power, these meticulously curated galleries offer a sweeping portrait of the civilization that shaped the ancient world — and a final, lasting impression you will carry home.
