You should pay special attention to the Tutankhamun Gallery.<\/p><p>Admission costs currently 1,200 Egyptian pounds (~ 24\u20ac).<\/p><p>A guided tour with Mariam or her colleagues costs a few pounds more. However, it is absolutely worth it for this competent and charming tour.<\/p><p>For more information on the museum, I recommend you visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/grandegyptianmuseum.org\/\"
