Itinerary
This majestic Memphis, Saqqara & Dahsure tour from Cairo Airport will start when our clients
are picked up from the airport and then taken by a private A/C vehicle to discover:
Saqqara Pyramid
The Step Pyramid at Saqqara, built by Imhotep for Pharaoh Djoser, is the
first pyramid ever constructed. With six stacked steps and standing 62
meters tall, it marks the start of Egypt’s golden age of construction. The
pyramid is part of a large, richly decorated complex with impressive
ceremonial buildings.
Memphis City
Memphis, founded by King Menes as Egypt’s first capital, united the two
lands and was home to the god Ptah. With ruins over 4,000 years old, it
features temples to gods like Aton and Hathor and connections to figures
like Ramses II.
Lunch Time
Then, we will transfer you to a wonderful local restaurant to enjoy your lunch meal and then you
will continue the rest of your day tour to:
Dahshur
is a royal necropolis located south of Cairo, famous for its early pyramids that paved the way for
the iconic structures at Giza. It’s home to the unique Bent Pyramid, which shows the evolution
of pyramid construction, and the Red Pyramid, Egypt’s first true smooth-sided pyramid built by
Pharaoh Sneferu. Less crowded than Giza, Dahshur offers a peaceful and authentic glimpse
into ancient Egypt’s architectural experimentation and royal history.
