    The egyptologists knowledge and passion for the history and mythology of Egypt was fantastic. The new museum even though only a third open was breathtaking. The downside for us was just going to the various sellers. Would have been nice to not have to do that bit.

    The Grand Egyptian Museum is the best Museum I have been to. Even though many exhibits are still in the old Museum, what was installed was already amazing. The view of the pyramids from the gallery just topped it off. The pyramids were also very impressive and the chance to go inside one was memorable. As it was Ramadan, everything closed at 4pm but the flight back was booked for after 9pm so we had a long wait at the airport.

    lots of wasted time in the afternoon. Very disappointed to be sold the NEw museum when its not officially open until July so most in the old museum. Was dropped off back at the airport 2 1/2 hrs before our flight when we didnt need to be there until 1 hour beforehand! Taken to a perfume/essential oil manufacturing when all it actually was is a person trying to sell us very expensive perfume.

    Thank you so much. The day was just perfect. Pyramids are jaw droppingly epic. Highly recommend the GEM. Thanks to all the staff who and particularly Adam who gave us a personal tour round the pyramids and museum as we were the only English speakers that day. He was tremendous and we learnt so much.

    Unser Guide Mahmut war toll, hat uns immer wieder „abgeholt“ in seinen Erklärungen bei den Pyramiden, im Museum und bot uns immer wieder Lückenfüller an, da wir noch nicht das gesamte Museum sehen konnten, leider sind noch ein paar Bereiche geschlossen. Zusätzlich war das Abgebot eine Bootsfahrt am Nil, Besuch einer Manufaktur, Kutschenfahrt an den Pyramiden. Somit war die Zeit bis zum Rückflug nach Hurghada gut ausgefüllt
