With the admission price for the new Grand Egyptian Museum in Cairo, is an audio guide included, or can we get one as an extra? (I can’t find the info anywhere.)
Thanks

Visiting the GEM in Cairo – is the audio guide included?

Hi everyone,
Yes, you can get an audio guide for the museum, but it’s an optional extra. I couldn’t find a French version either—only English, Arabic, and Japanese ???
I can ask a friend who’s a guide for more details if you’d like.

hi everyone,
Yes, the audio guide is an option—it costs 200 EGP.

Hello everyone,
According to my guide friend in Cairo, no—only English, Arabic, and Japanese. Spot the mistake! Even the French version of the sound and light show was removed, supposedly to "renew" it???
Anyway, if you’ve got a solid background in Egyptian history, no problem.

Russian is clearly missing, and it's a language of the future. What a shame!

hi,
Yeah, same as all the other languages—why one and not another? It’s them who decide, not us. Where I’m from, it’s the same thing. I don’t know many people in my contacts or friends who need Russian, actually none, so it doesn’t bother me ???
Happy New Year!
