I liked the museum. there are probably not many exhibits (we have nothing to compare them with), but they are authentic and everything is done well both inside and out beautifully, clean and spacious. payment by card, but for Russians, a visit for cash is local pounds (200 for an adult, 100 for a child, i.e. a family of 2 people and 1 child can visit it for about 1000 rubles for all) and a passport or photo of it. neither dollars nor euros are accepted! change money in advance! as a last resort, ask taxi drivers to exchange bucks for pounds (it will not be very profitable). the museum seems to be open from 17.00, it is better to approach a little in advance, while it is light, take a picture and walk around the territory, and then go to the museum. there are a couple of souvenir shops inside (prices are not cheap).
from the museum towards Naama Bay in 5-7 minutes walk you can go to Hollywood Park, there is also a beautiful illuminated place. inside it, to the right behind the stage in the back, there is a shop with cheap souvenirs)
Friends, I recommend everyone to visit this museum! I want to tell you right away that no guide or travel agency will offer or tell you about this museum, they will sell you a trip to the Cairo Museum for a lot of money. By no means am I trying to dissuade you from the Cairo Museum, there is a golden mask of Tutankhamun and other exhibits that deserve attention.
But if you are in Charm, be sure to come here, there are a lot of exhibits, there is something to see. I warn you right away, you can only buy a ticket by paying with a bank card. (Currently, Russian cards do not work abroad).
But! You can ask one of the passers-by (locals) or visitors, and give them cash. The price for tickets is a penny, in 2023 I gave about 1600rubles for three, another moment, the museum, and in principle almost everything in the Charm starts working fully at 19:00 local time and until the morning).
The three of us actually went around the museum, there was no one else.
The Egyptians of that time probably had a joke to mummify everyone 😉 crocodiles, birds, monkeys…
I recommend it, lots of impressions!!
