Magnificent Treasures await You in our Gift and Souvenir Shops
Several souvenir and gift shops are located in the Pharaonic Village where patrons may purchase mementos of their visit, many of which are hand-made in the Village by the same expert artisans who crafted many of the attractions you see on your tour. From jewelry to beautiful papyrus paintings to replicas of King Tutankhamen's treasures, our shops bring ancient Egypt to the modern world and put it in your hands.
