Itinerary

90 min

your journey begins with the Saqqara Necropolis where Egypt’s story truly began. At Saqqara, you’ll walk through the ancient burial grounds of nobles and pharaohs, home to the Step Pyramid of King Djoser — the world’s first monumental stone structure and the prototype for all later pyramids. Explore the intricately decorated tombs of high officials, with vivid hieroglyphs and colorful wall carvings that bring to life scenes of daily life, music, and rituals from over 4,500 years ago. Your private Egyptologist will guide you through this vast archaeological site, revealing how Saqqara served as a bridge between Egypt’s early dynasties and the grandeur of Giza.

90 min

Then we continue the experience by entering the first complete pyramid. Dahshur is one of Egypt’s most quietly fascinating ancient sites—a place where you can see the evolution of pyramid building without the heavy crowds of Giza. Located about 40 km south of Cairo, Dahshur sits on the edge of the desert and was part of the vast Memphite necropolis. What makes it unique isn’t just its age, but the experimental nature of its monuments.

Admission included60 min

Continue your discovery at Memphis, Egypt’s first capital, now an open-air museum preserving relics of ancient greatness. Stroll among colossal statues, including the magnificent limestone colossus of Ramses II, and admire the elegant Alabaster Sphinx, a rare symbol of royal power and artistry. The tranquil garden-like setting offers a striking contrast to the desert landscapes of Giza and Saqqara, giving you a complete picture of Egypt’s evolution from its earliest kings to its golden age. Together, Saqqara and Memphis form an essential extension of your Giza experience — a deeper dive into Egypt’s architectural genius, artistry, and eternal legacy. At the end of your unforgettable journey through Giza, Saqqara, and Memphis, your experience concludes with a comfortable private transfer back to your hotel

Kairo in two Days

Amna was a great guide, she took us to all the sights we wanted to see but put them in historical order. You could absolutely tell her own love for ancient Egypt. We went to Saqqara and Dashur Pyramids as well as Giza and she always found a way to fast track us through the lines. On our second Day we visited the Grand Museum where she showed us a very well curated sample of pieces. Furthermore we got to see the citadel. To sum up, she is very good company and will help you have a great time.

Great Tour through Ancient Egypt

We had a fantastic 2-day-trip with Amna. She showed us around Giza Pyramids, the Saqqara and Dashur complex and then on the second day we toured the Grand Egyptian Museum as well as the Citadel and Khan Bazar. She was extremely nice and knowledgable and we had an amazing time. I would definitely recommend to everyone to book a tour with her! It’s so worth it.

Well-Organized Tour With a Memorable Experience

Had a wonderful experience on our Pyramid tour. The arrangements were smooth, well-organized, and everything ran on time. Amna and Amira contacted us the previous day and ensured that all timings were clearly set. Amira was friendly and knowledgeable, and her insights added a lot to the visit. She did, however, seem to skip a couple of points/locations. Overall, we still thoroughly enjoyed the experience and found it memorable.

A trip to remember

My overall experience in Egypt was truly wonderful. The admission fees were fair, though offering a better rate would allow more people to enjoy and appreciate the attractions. I stayed for four days, which gave me just enough time to explore and enjoy the country’s rich history. The atmosphere was pleasant, with nice weather during this month, although the crowd size was quite large. The staff were attentive and friendly, adding to the positive experience. Overall, Egypt is best suited for anyone interested in history and gaining deeper knowledge about the past.
