Overview

Museum in Egypt. It lies in Egypt's desert belt, best visited between October and April.

Why visit: The Grand Egyptian Museum and the Egyptian Museum hold the Tutankhamun treasures and the royal mummies — the largest collection of Egyptian antiquities anywhere.

Things to do

›Book the Grand Egyptian Museum online — walk-up queues are long
›Pay for the separate mummy-hall ticket where one exists
›Pick a few galleries rather than attempting the whole collection
›Check the camera policy; phone photography is usually fine, tripods are not
