Egypt's Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities Has Launched a Series of Virtual and Guided Video Tours of Museums and Archaeological Sites
Egypt's Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities has launched a series of virtual and guided video tours of museums and archaeological sites around the country, The Star reports.
The move comes as the spread of the novel coronavirus has locked down countries and forced visitors and tourists to stay at home as part of measures to fight the pandemic.
"Meet you at the main hall at 8 PM," the ministry says on Facebook, teasing a tour of Museum of Egyptian Antiquities.
The videos, which take viewers through empty museums and other sites normally crowded with tourists, are available on the ministry’s official website and social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram or Twitter under the slogan: “Experience Egypt from Home. Stay Home. Stay Safe."
