Description

Travel back to the dawn of Ancient Egypt on a private full-day tour to Saqqara, Dahshur, and Memphis, three remarkable archaeological sites that reveal the origins of pyramid construction and the legacy of Egypt's Old Kingdom.

Accompanied by a professional licensed Egyptologist guide, enjoy a fascinating journey through history in the comfort of a private air-conditioned vehicle.

Begin at Saqqara, home to the legendary Step Pyramid of Djoser, the world's first monumental stone pyramid and a revolutionary achievement in ancient architecture.

Continue to Dahshur, where you'll discover the remarkable Bent Pyramid and the impressive Red Pyramid, considered the first successful true smooth-sided pyramid and a key milestone in the evolution of pyramid design.

Complete your experience in Memphis, the first capital of Ancient Egypt and one of its earliest centers of power. Admire the colossal statue of Ramses II and the beautifully carved Alabaster Sphinx, two of the city's most treasured monuments.

Enjoy a traditional Egyptian lunch before relaxing on your return transfer to your hotel in Cairo or Giza.
