The Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities launched, in collaboration with its partners from scientific and archaeological institutes, a series of virtual and guided video tours of a number of museums and archaeological sites around Egypt.

This initiative comes within the framework of the ministry’s efforts to enable people worldwide to explore and enjoy the ancient Egyptian civilization during their home confinement, within the precautionary measures taken to fight coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak.

The tours will be available on the ministry’s official website and Social Media platforms (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Experience Egypt), under the slogan: “Experience Egypt from Home. Stay Home. Stay Safe.” 

The first of these tours was launched on Friday in cooperation with the American Research Center in Cairo (ARCE).
