You will enjoy other pyramids in Dahshur, the most important pyramids of Dahshur.

Built as protected tombs for the pharaohs to ensure their transition to eternal life, they played a crucial role in protecting their bodies and souls.

Our tour begins with the Pyramid of Meidum, where you will be picked up from your hotel and transferred to Meidum. We will go to Beni Suef... Beni Suef is known as the pearl of Upper Egypt due to its unique archeological and tourist attractions.
The Pyramid of Meidum is considered one of the mysteries of the Pharaonic era about which not much is known, despite its distinction in discovering the history of the Pharaonic civilization. Egyptologists call it the false pyramid due to the strangeness of its construction, as it is distinguished by being the only pyramid that takes a cube-like shape and not a pyramidal shape.
After that, we will move to the Dahshur area. The Pyramids of Dahshur are a testament to ancient Egyptian architectural development and show how the experiences of early engineers contributed to achieving this engineering miracle that we see today in the Pyramids of Giza.
As for the curved pyramid, the late Egyptian archaeological engineer Abdel Salam Hussein was able to reveal the name of King Sneferu written more than once with the marks that quarry workers used to write on the stone blocks of the pyramid, especially those in the corners of the pyramid, while he was carrying out archaeological excavation work around the pyramid.
Learn about the Red Pyramid as well, and then the last tour of the day with us is the city of Memphis. Memphis has historical roots that stretch back to the early dynasty period. Egyptologist Dr. Muhammad Raafat Abbas explains that Memphis was founded around 3100 BC to be a decisive historical milestone following the unification of Upper and Lower Egypt. In the end, you will be returned to Cairo or Giza at your preferred location.
