The museum house over 250,000 genuine artifacts, including the treasures of the most famous Egyptian pharaoh, Tutankhamen. The gold and jewelry on display was enclosed in his tomb for over 3,500 years before it was discovered in the 1920s during excavations by famous archaeologist Howard Carter. Accompanied by your degree-certified egyptologist you will gain a deeper insight to the the artifacts displayed and their context within the history and culture of ancient Egypt. For an additional charge you can visit the royal mummy room and and look upon the mummies of Egypt's most famous pharaohs like Ramses II and Hatshepsut.
