    Adventure to The Museum of Egyptian Antiquities, also known as the Egyptian Museum or Museum of Cairo. This historical marvel, established in 1901 by the Italian construction company Garozzo-Zaffarani and designed by French architect Marcel Dourgnon, houses an extensive collection of ancient Egyptian antiquities. With 120,000 items in its inventory, the museum showcases a representative selection, with the rest carefully stored in its storerooms. Explore the grandeur of this cultural treasure for approximately 3 hours.

According to Christian tradition, this area hosted the Holy Family during their visit, particularly at the site of Saints Sergius and Bacchus Church (Abu Serga).
