King Tut and Egyptian related geocaches - Philadelphia

[+TwoCat]

Does anyone know if an entrance fee is required for any of hte King Tut caches in Philadelphia?

Hard to say, but we have tickets to visit the exhibit on Sept. 15 and plan to do at least some of the tour. I know that the first cache on the tour is in the Franklin Institute itself, which would normally require a fee, but since the Tut tix get you into the institute, one is covered. Though I guess if one is doing the "tour" without going to see King T then you might have to pay to get to it. Hope that helps a little and others have anything to say.

We'll let you know how we make out in the middle of August.

Well.....we headed out this morning and met up with the entire PBS team. We did not get to them all - Philly is REALLY crowded on a Sunday. But we liked what we saw. So far there were no entrance fees. There is 1 that is not open on Sundays - Egyptian Hall.

 

Folks - this series is VERY well done. We highly recommend it. We hope we can finish it before it leaves.

Glad to hear the recommendation. Will be going on a bus trip to see the King later this month. I'm hoping I get close enough to do one or two caches.

One of them is in the same museum that Tut is in so at the very least you should be able to do that. Good luck!
