- The Great Hall of the Grand Egyptian Museum is now open to the public! When I made this video a few weeks ago there was an event happening which allowed me access inside the entrance and it wasn't fully open, but the Great Hall to the GEM is now open to the public! Keep in mind most of the museum and galleries are still not open, but if you want to at least stand in the Great Hall, see the colossal statue of Rameses ll and a few other ancient artifacts (as well gift shops, restaurants and cafes), you're able to enter!
Tickets can be purchased at gem-tickets.com

well done you 122 thousand views ......i been following you from the beginning of your you tube journey all your hard work is paying off , you should be very proud of yourself
Yes, wow, thank you so much, since the beginning! 😍🙏This video seems to be a special case, as the news of the GEM partial opening is trending, but I am elated to see it doing so well and people's response to it, and day by day the channel is growing. Definitely inspires me to keep doing what I'm doing. Thanks for your loyal support AMSR ☺
Yeah
I worked in the Grand Museum for 8 years, and it is truly one of the best projects I have ever worked on❤
Wow, that is awesome!
@@sparklesparklesparkle6318 😆What a thing to imagine 😆 Thank god that kind of torture isn't so commonplace this day in age, some of the devices were really fucked up. Gventures because my first name begins with G. I am sure you get the rest 😅
I see a lot of empty space in there.
@@3John-Bishop I think that is what they were going for. Open feeling and not cluttered or cramped in the Great Hall
You did a good job it seems! Sadly it wasn’t ready when I visited.
Wow!! That museum is another level looks so great, it’s amazing how Egypt has a big historical heritage like you feel you never end learning 🤩😍 you’re so lucky to be there 👍🏻
Yes, there is so much to see here, it's endless! 😅😅Ancient Egypt is incredible, but also modern Egypt is a lot of fun as well! Cairo is chaotic but full of energy, great food and nice people (vendors are annoying but your every day Egyptians are great). And then the cities along the Mediterranean, beautiful beach towns along the Red Sea, towns all the way down the Nile, small desert oasis. There is so much to see and love about Egypt 🥰
@@Gventures yes i have seen many videos (yours included) and I know Cairo is chaotic but that’s not a big deal, I’m literally falling in love with all those places 🤩 the more I try lo learn the more I want to live there at least for few months in the future God Willing 🙏🏻
@@andrereyes93 Oh lol that's awesome. I also love and thrive off this kind of chaos. You will love Cairo then
I am Egyptian, and I thank you for those beautiful words about my country, Egypt. I wish you to visit it soon and enjoy every moment of it. Egypt is a beautiful country with everything it truly has, and I am very lucky that I was born Egyptian.
@@kungfumylife9518 Egypt is a treasure on earth ❤️
Over the last two hundred years a lot of Egypt’s treasures were removed from the country, and ended up in museums around the world including UK, France, US. It’s great to see them opening this fantastic place that house their historical treasures. Thank for sharing.
Absolutely agree
Best thing to happen to the treasures was the fact the British took them - at least they were saved. What would have happened if Tuts tomb had been found by locals …. It would have been robbed.
Same goes for the Elgin marbles etc.
@@donjohnson4368إذاً يحق لنا الآن أن نستعيدهم 😂😅
I am a sculptor, and all I can say is these statues are incredible. And the Museum itself is amazing. Thanks for the video.
Thank you. Amazing how the hugeness of the building does NOT diminish the size and impressiveness of the giant statues. Also, the lighting effects on the statues really makes them "pop"! This is truly going to be a global museum!!
100% agree! The Ramses statue immediately draws ones attention in the Great Hall, despite the halls grand size, and is displayed beautifully. I can not wait until the museum fully opens!
Egypt is the land of history ❤❤
I have been waiting and waiting for this museum to open to the public. You're so fortunate to have seen a glimpse of what is to come. Thank you, so very much, for sharing this with us all. I will fly to Egypt when it opens!
Thank you so much Andrew! I hope it opens very soon, it's been such an incredibly long wait...
It is really Amazing the great pyramids hand in hand with the GEM what a combination . It is the visit that one must have at least once in a lifetime
That's right
Absolutely agree, can't wait for it to fully open!!!!
@@Gventures yes...its will be fantastic surprise...greetings
I visited Egypt in 2013 when construction was just began. All I can say is wow! Can't wait to return to see it when it is finished.
Wow! 10 years later and it is almost finally complete! I can't wait
Definitely something I'd be interested in seeing. I had no idea that place even existed. Can't wait to see the video after it opens.
There is about 10 different museums in Cairo and Alexandria for the ancient different period of Egypt 7k history
Off course the biggest once is for the Pharaoh 3300 years long civilisation
These brand new grand Museum is still under construction and is being build in Next to the Great Pyramids area in Giza as Egypt is closing some of the old museum which has been more than hundred years old buildings and transferring the monuments to the new one
The GEM looks amazing, truly worthy of the incredible history and treasures of Egypt
Absolutely
The Great Egyptian Museum is on my bucket list .. This looks AMAZING!
I’m moving to Egypt soon from America and you make me so excited! Please keep up the great content!! ❤❤❤
Fantastic! I hope you post videos of your travels in Egypt as well.
Awesome! Ba7eb Maser! And thanks so much for watching! ❤
welcome to Egypt Nicole
Welcome to Egypt
I’ve been waiting for this musuem to open for years! Great to see it’s been built to house these fascinating artefacts!
Hoping it'll fully open sometime this year! 🤞
As an Egyptian we’re accustomed to saying insha’allah (if God wills it)! In other words, don’t rush us into opening the GEM anytime soon! It will be open when it’s open. Lol
Amazing structure and marvellous museum
Oh my God, Egypt is a magical country 😍
A memorizing place for sure.
Egypt is the greatest civilization ♥️🇪🇬

@@neevisits2957 it's the greatest all the time
مرحبا بك في مصر اصل حضارات العالم.
الماضي والحاضر والمستقبل معا اللهم احفظ مصر ونتمى لك زياره ممتعه🇪🇬❤️🤲
Shukran ketir, ba7eb Maser! ❤
Always fascinated by Egypt since a child visited Cairo and the old Egyptian museum and the valley of the kings most interesting place of the many I’ve travelled to amazing place
Wow, very cool! The history here is absolutely mind blowing
Nice one. I'd love to see more museums in Cairo like that. And longer vids from those museums.
Wow. I've heard about this museum but....WOW
Yesss. Can't wait for it to fully open!
Hello Gisselle,
Egyptian Canadian here🙋♀. Just wanted to say, your GEM video is one of the best I have seen so far. Thank you 🌹
Looking forward to visiting when I'm back ...
also looking forward to more of your videos. Keep up the good work.
Wish you all the best ❤
Oh wow, THANK YOU, I really appreciate that! I love Egypt! Ba7eb Maser! So happy to be here and I feel very welcomed. As the Egyptians love to say "Your second home" 🥰It's great. Also waiting for the museum to fully open, then I will certainly be making another video! But in the meantime, plenty more things I want to film, document, and show about all the reasons I love living in Egypt. Have a fantastic day Sam 😎
Thanks for sharing.
I was in Egypt in 1988 for two weeks and could not get enough. Since then, have travelled the world and always said I would go back there.
Now I have another reason.
I hope that the museum is well orchestrated like all the great museums of the world as it appears to be larger than life itself!
Cannot wait to take in the sights once again, minus that 20 dollar coffee😮
Oh wow, you were here back in the DAY! You must definitely return! I love Egypt so much, it's why I never left. Came for a planned 3 months, still here 1.5 years later 😆 You must watch some of my other videos like the streets and markets and tell me if it's anything like it was when you were here in '88, or if it's completely different. I'm sure much has changed of course, but maybe there are still some similarities. The coffee thing was kind of a joke, I have no idea how much the coffee actually was as I didn't check, I was just being sarcastic about the price because it felt so fancy in there 😅I like to joke around a lot 😬😄
@@Gventures I will definitely check back with you after I’ve seen your videos. As for the sense of humour, you need that a lot when you travel from my personal experience over the years.
I have always wanted to return but for one reason or not, I never did. As I am a lot older now than in 1988 I have to really plan my trip in order to spend at least one full day at the GEM. Something that I do as a rule when i visit a major city like Paris, the Louvre, Tate Modern and British Museum in London, and the MOMA in New York for example.
When I was in Egypt the people were so friendly everywhere I went but poverty was evident during my two week stay visiting Aswan, to see the dam, Abu Simbel for the the temples, then Karnak, Luxor and across the river to Elephant island and the Temple of queen Hatsheput and of course the plane ride to Cairo to see the museum downtown and finally the creme de la creme of Egypt, the pyramids of Giza and a visit to Saqqara.
Everything is still vidid in my mind as I kept my photos on paper in albums and have had many friends visit Egypt over the years.
If i do not go soon I will be too old to travel..!
Before that, I will enjoy your videos.
Insha Allah. 🙏🏽
@@richmck007 Well I hope the museum fully opens soon and you are able to return and visit Egypt once again! I have always loved ancient history and the ancient Egyptian civilization, but I have fallen in love with modern day Egypt since arriving here. The food, the music, the people. There is just much to love about the country! 😍And I do enjoy the chaos of Cairo 😄
@@Gventures I think I will have to deal with the chaos with a two day trip along the Nile and a day at least in the GEM for sure!
The oldest civilization on planet earth Egypt is a very great country
It's not the oldest civilisation..... Far from it, what about sumarians?
Il mondo occidentale ha civiltà romana. I faraoni fecero piramidi per loro i romani fecero strade ponti terme stadi arene fondarono città.
The oldest fully INTEGRATED civilization known to history! Also, Egypt is the oldest nation. The First Nation in history, for sure. Sumerians and the rest of the Mesopotamians were made up of independent city states.
Sumer, Elam, Eridu, Nineveh, Assur, Assyrian, Persian, Göbekli Tepe, Mesopotamia was also home to the world’s first urban cities, including Uruk, Ur, Elam, Babylon, Ashur and Akkad. South Africa where Adams Calendar is located is even older. All pre dynamic Egypt.

Amazing civilization, greetings from Egypt to all human beings. Thank you so much for your wonderful presentation.
The architecture is just phenomenal. Hope they have tours online!! Thanks for the sneak peak!
Your voice over about Ramses was mesmerising - you should narrate audio books (if you don’t already!) - we are heading to Egypt for the first time in August hope it is fully open or has some more events while we are there.
I agree! There are whispers it will open after Ramadan, but only time will tell. Thanks so much for watching!
Thanks what an incredible building and Credit to Egypt…. Laurie NZ.
Hey NZ, what's up Laurie?! 😄Hello from this American in Egypt 😉Yes it's an incredible museum and I can't wait for it to fully open, it's certainly going to be a wonder
I just found your channel & immediately subscribed! I can’t thank you enough for this one! I got to see King Ramses II artifacts last year at my local museum and since I can remember, I have been fascinated with Egyptian culture!!
Me too! I have always been fascinated with the ancient Egyptian culture and civilization, it is truly incredible. How I wish I could time travel 🤣😭🤣 But I am lucky to be in Egypt and see the wealth of history that is here, it is truly endless and absolutely stunning. And since arriving here 1.5 years ago I have also fallen in love with modern day Egypt, the food, the people, and everything about the chaos that is Cairo. I hope one day you will be able to visit! And thank you so much for subbing, it means a lot to me that you enjoyed the video that much. I hope you enjoy my other videos just as much! 😅😊❤😁
Such an impressive piece of architecture. A great cultural achievement.
My country is the most beautiful country ❤️ Egypt in❤️
مصر ياأم الأمم مصر يا أرض النِعم أعظم حضاره عرفتها البشرية 🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬

Just waiting for it to open to go back!! Egypt was one of my favourite travels!
I've been to the old museum..Can't wait to visit the new one
Miss Egypt so much. Can’t wait to see her again soon ❤
Loved the museum and video ❤️
Welcome to Egypt, a very cool show
Thank you for this video! I am looking forward to seeing the GEM fully opening after all this time. I subscribed and hope you do more videos when you visit the GEM. Thank you for sharing your travels!
Thanks so much Kevin, I really appreciate your support! ❤ I certainly plan to return to the GEM when it fully opens, it's going to be a HUGE event and I want to capture that day as well! Here's to hoping it opens soon 🥂
Great production because it captures the feel of the place
Soooo beautiful next our trip we will visit this museum ❤thank you so much for sharing
Great .. thank you for taking your camera.. I love it
Thank you! We were there in December 2022 and heard about the GEM - so thank you for taking us!! You rock!
Thank you! Still no word on when it will fully open! It's wild.....😆Hopefully by the end of this year....or next....😅
I also noticed that the choices of music genres in your video are great You have great taste and a true artist inside you 🌼🌼🌼
Such a beautiful modern museum featuring Egyptian cultural treasures. Thank you for sharing your enjoyable and informative video. Have a great day!😊
Thank you so much for watching, have a wonderful day as well! 🙏😊

this is amazing
Amazing ❤
Thak you for the visit. Your voice is beautiful and relaxing for documentals or tell stories.
Thank you so much! ❤
They've spared no expense, every contemporary architect should have attention to the beauty like in this case
Very beautiful and magical 🙌
Agreed!
Amazing museum 😮😮 great 👍 🇲🇦
Very excited for the opening
Me too!
Thanks for the glimpse. 👍✨
My pleasure!
Do an episode from Dahab (small coastal town on the gulf of Aqaba in the Red Sea). I’m positive you’re gonna love being there.
I have actually! I made I think like 3-4 videos in Dahab back when I was there in April of 2022
@@Gventures yeah I didn’t know then but I know now cause I watched them already 😀
@@MYT1FL Lol ah cool, thanks! I like Dahab, I should go back there sometime. I LOVE living in Cairo, but Dahab is a nice place to visit and spend a little while out of the city and relax by the sea. Plus cute lazy beach cats 😆
Fabulous video! Congratulations!!
Thank you Claudio! 🙏
Cool ,must visit
thank you very mush I hope you like the museum and Egypt too, and don't forget to see the official opening of the museum it will be amazing😍😍 and I hope that you will forgive me for the chaos and fraudulent sellers, but everything will change in the future,
I will definitely be there when it opens! And the vendors are annoying, but many places around the world deal with this, even in places like NYC. That's humans around the world! 😅
@@Gventures Yes, every country in the world has good and bad🙂
Amazing vlog 👏❤❤
روعه شكراً لحضرتك ❤
Fantastic! I've always been fascinated by Egypt maybe from a past life or two. I would love to see all the things I've only seen in documentaries.
Another great video from you 👏👏👏. I hope the GEM will have opened by May for our visit 🤞.
I hope so too! Everyone is awaiting the big opening 😍 Thanks Jose!
@Gventures ...so what will happen with the current Egyptian museum in cairo? Are all king tuts items moving to the GEM?
@@josepintado3910 That's a good question, but one I am unable to answer that, as I am not really sure what they will do with King Tuts items. I am pretty sure they won't close the Egyptian Museum though, as it is a historical building with many other artifacts in there.
Your voice with music is wonderful
Look at the ancestors ...
New subscriber here,love your channel,very informative,we are going to visit Egypt this coming Aug.2024..looking forward for it,very excited😊🤗
Amazing! I hope you find Egypt is incredible and beautiful as I do ❤ But wow, you're coming during the hottest month, so be prepared for the heat! Bring a hand fan (for the heat, but also at times the flies that apparently love the desert).
@@Gventures yes,we are preparing for the heat...lol..thank you💥❤
Next time I go to Cairo I’d love to meet you in person. Love your video
That would be cool!
ooo! thanks for that look inside!
Thanks for watching! 🥰
COOL!!
Welcome to Egypt. I am from Egypt.
Now I will definitely visit 😊
You are voice acting materials. Love your videos and your voice!
Thank you so much Mark! 🙏Perhaps I should try and find a gig doing that, that would be cool 😅
Wowww😳
Egypt and Saudi Arabia must be an architects dream, they are allowed to get very creative, in fact, directed to be very creative because they have the funds to do that. Not like in America where the owners want just a big box or very plain / minimal features so it doesn't cost very much. The Apple complex costs over a billion, several I think but it does not even compare to the architecture in the aforementioned areas.
Love the music in the background intro.
Thanks man!
Great ❤
Today is my first time going there and im excited tysm best channel since 2020 - 2023 sorry😅
Oh! You know it's not fully open yet, right? There is very little to see there at the moment, and I personally think they charge too much just to enter the Great Hall. Nobody knows when the entire museum will actually be open to the public
Cant wait for it to open!
Likewise!
