Virtual Tours of MENA Museums That Don’t Require Leaving Your Bed

As the day winds down and energy levels drop during Ramadan, the idea of wandering without moving feels especially welcome. But while tuning in to a TV series might work for some, others would much rather explore the past—ancient masks, fallen fossils, endless echoing halls of history. Yet, the fast asks us to slow down, to reflect and rest. Thankfully, in a world of consoles and artificial intelligence, technology now offers us a new way to explore the world’s histories from the comfort of home, to feed the mind and spirit while waiting for sunset—virtual museum tours.

From the ancient amphitheatres of Tunisia and the timeless Nile of Egypt to the ancient soul of Palestine and the futuristic shimmer of the UAE, these are all the virtual museum tours in MENA that will have you exploring the region’s past and present, without spending energy you don’t have before iftar.
