The Grand Egyptian Museum

The largest archaeological museum on earth, finally open, next door to the pyramids it explains.

Two decades in the making and open since late 2025, the GEM holds over 100,000 artifacts including, for the first time in history, the complete Tutankhamun collection in one place. The building itself, a sandstone wedge aligned to the pyramids, is worth the visit alone.

Plan ticket arrangements alongside your itinerary. Include your preferred date in your request so the team can review entry options and any handling costs before you confirm.

Give it a morning minimum. With a good Egyptologist it becomes the best three hours in Egypt and makes the plateau next door mean far more.
