Entrance fees at archaeological sites and museums in Egypt are exclusively paid using bank cards, as cash is no longer accepted. Both Visa and MasterCard are widely accepted, but American Express is not. Adults pay the full price, while students receive a 50% discount. The only exception to this is at the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization (NMEC), where cash payments are still accepted. Tickets can be purchased on-site or reserved in advance through the Egyptian Ministry of Antiquities’ website Here
