This tour visits the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir Square, which houses the world's largest collection of Pharaonic antiquities, including the complete Tutankhamun collection. The Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM) is a new, state-of-the-art museum near the Giza Plateau that is partially open; we will transition tours as it becomes fully operational.
The Citadel was built in the 12th century by the Muslim leader Salah al-Din (Saladin) to protect Cairo from Crusader attacks. It served as the seat of Egypt's government for nearly 700 years and is a magnificent example of medieval Islamic military architecture.
