Egyptian Museum - Cairo

We search for the lost tomb of Ramesses the Great, then, we recreate the last violent moments of an ancient king to discover if he was a brave or cowardly man. We visit the stomping grounds of Indiana Jones to discover how a poor Pharaoh amassed a hoard of gold to rival King Tut, and enter an underground animal necropolis to find out why ancient Egyptians mummified cats, baboons and falcons by the millions. Cryptic inscriptions discovered on a pyramid’s capstone reveal the secret of the pyramid’s spiritual power, and King Khufu’s pyramid is searched for his true likeness in a chamber that includes a locked, unopened door.
