Full-Day Tour: Memphis, Saqqara, and Dahshur Pyramids

Your adventure begins with a comfortable pickup from your hotel in Cairo or Giza in a modern, air-conditioned vehicle. First, we'll head to Saqqara to witness the groundbreaking Step Pyramid of Djoser. Built for King Djoser around 2630 BC, this pyramid is a testament to ancient Egyptian ingenuity and a pivotal moment in architectural history.

we'll journey to Memphis, the very first capital of unified Upper and Lower Egypt, dating back to 3100 BC. Here, you'll have the chance to see the impressive Colossal Statue of Ramesses II and the serene Great Alabaster Sphinx. After exploring Memphis, we'll take a break to enjoy a delicious lunch at a local restaurant, allowing you to savor authentic Egyptian cuisine. Our final stop is the Dahshur area, a royal necropolis located in the desert approximately 40 kilometers (25 miles) south of Cairo. Dahshur is renowned for its pyramids, including the iconic Bent Pyramid and the Red Pyramid, both built between 2613–2589 BCE. These pyramids are among the oldest, largest, and best-preserved in Egypt, offering a fascinating glimpse into early pyramid construction. Before returning to your accommodation, you'll have some free shopping time to explore local vendors and perhaps find a unique souvenir. Feel free to discuss prices directly with the vendors to enhance your experience. Finally, we'll ensure a comfortable return to your hotel in Cairo or Giza.
