Your first stop is the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization, where your expert Egyptologist guide will lead you through its extraordinary exhibits. With more than 50,000 artifacts on display, the museum showcases the rich history of Egypt, from its pharaonic beginnings to modern times, offering deep insights into the customs, traditions, and daily lives of its people.
