In the morning, our tour guide will pick you up from your hotel to visit the first tomb constructed in the form of a pyramid by the ancient Egyptians, located in Saqqara. This remarkable structure, known as the Step Pyramid, was designed by the ingenious architect Imhotep for King Djoser during Egypt's third dynasty.
At Saqqara, you'll also explore the pyramids of King Teti from the Old Kingdom, as well as those of the first monarch of the sixth dynasty. Additionally, you'll have the opportunity to visit King Unas' pyramid, renowned for its spectacular burial chambers, with no extra ticket required.
A visit to one of the Saqqara Mastaba Tombs of the Nobles will provide insight into daily life in ancient Egypt, with its array of activities and intricate tomb passageways.
After lunch at a local restaurant in Saqqara, you'll proceed to the Memphis Museum to view the alabaster sphinx, the second-largest sphinx statue from ancient Egypt, crafted from an 80-ton block of marble. You'll also admire the colossal limestone statue of King Ramses II from the nineteenth dynasty, along with other fascinating exhibits.
Finally, you'll be guided to Dahshur, one of the most intriguing ancient Egyptian archaeological sites, where you'll witness the pyramids of King Snefru. The Red Pyramid, the highest structure in the Dahshur Necropolis, and the Great Pyramid and Khafra's Pyramid, the two largest ancient Egyptian pyramids, will captivate your imagination. You'll also explore the Bent Pyramid, Snefru's second pyramid, known by the ancient Egyptians as "Sneferu is Shining in the South" or "The Southern Shining Pyramid."
After this awe-inspiring journey, which can be part of your Cairo or Giza day excursions, you'll be safely transported back to your accommodation in Cairo or Giza.
