Choose the pass
Begin on our Passes page. The seven tiers are arranged by duration, from a single-site admission valid for thirty days, up to the ten-day Pharaonic Grand. If you are uncertain which best suits your itinerary, write to us at [email protected] and one of our registrars will reply within a business day with a recommendation.
Receive your credentials
Within minutes of a successful payment, the pass arrives by email as a signed PDF containing a QR code, a human-readable summary of the included institutions, and a short practical note for each one (opening hours, location, the particular entrance to use). The same PDF can be loaded into an Apple or Google wallet; the credential does not require network connectivity to display at the gate, though the first scan will register the activation in our ledger.
Present at entry
Approach the priority lane at any partner site. A steward will scan the QR from your phone or from a printed copy — either is accepted — and issue the gate sticker that each museum still uses for internal room counts. The scan is the act of admission. At the Valley of the Kings you will receive three tomb-selection slips at the reading kiosk; these are the current day's open tombs, and we make no attempt to guess which they will be.
Track your visits
Your PDF updates in place as the pass is used. A small counter in the upper right records admissions, time and date. For multi-day tiers, a wallet panel on our site shows the chronology of your visits and, where a museum has flagged a temporary closure or a changed opening hour during the dates of your stay, we send a short advisory email. You are free to ignore it; we simply prefer the traveller to know.
Extend or renew
An extension can be purchased at any time before the credential lapses. A two-day Cairo Pass can be upgraded to a five-day Nile Heritage at the difference in price, paid online. An Annual Scholar Pass is renewed by a quiet email in the thirtieth day of the twelfth month — we do not auto-renew, because the history of auto-renewal in cultural tourism has not been a happy one. The decision to carry on should always belong to the visitor.
