Traveling to Egypt is a dream for many, but unfortunately it’s not within everyone’s reach. However, what if we told you that soon you’ll be able to do it without leaving Lisbon? Forget agencies and tour operators, as all you need is a virtual realityheadset to immerse yourself in “Horizon of Cheops: Journey to Ancient Egypt”.
After the intense demand on the waiting list and the exclusive pre-sale phase, it’s official: tickets for the immersive experience that promises to mark Lisbon’s agenda are available to the general public from this Thursday, November 6, at 10am.
A world of gods, pharaohs and mysterious corridors
Visiting the pyramids of Ancient Egypt is a dream for many… and one that will become a reality thanks to new technologies. On a journey back 4,500 years, and with the help of an Egyptian mythological figure, get ready to explore the depths of the monumental pyramids and their mysterious corridors.
In this surprisingly real virtual world, you’ll not only uncover the architecture, but you’ll also cross paths with important gods from Egyptian mythology, such as Bastet, and observe the process of embalming mummies. The best part? Every detail is the result of high-quality historical research led by Egyptologist Peter Der Manuelian (from Harvard University).
Lisbon’s most secret time travel
The setting chosen to host the experience is as surprising as the journey: the Underground Room of the Terreiro do Paço Metro Station. A fascinating paradox: leaving the modern heart of Lisbon to dive into the ancient and narrow Egyptian corridors.
Promoted in partnership by Excurio and Fever, this experience offers a more than clear window into the past. If you want to see your history book come to life, this is the perfect opportunity. Tickets are on sale now and have a 10% discount until November 27th.
