Avoir un guide et obligatoire si on veut bien comprendre et se promener dans ce musée. Les explications sont la base de la découverte de l''Egypte

The guide Yasser was late and I felt like we were being rushed through the museum. He also was constantly begging for excellence, even to the point of wanting me to download the app on Trip Advisor shortly after the tour and during lunch. As for lunch that was included, it was not worth the stop.
As for the museum, very disappointed, however I understand that many of the items are being prepared for the move to the new museum.
