Description

Step back in time with this fascinating day tour to two of Egypt’s most significant yet lesser-known archaeological sites: Sakkara and Dahshur. Begin with a visit to Sakkara, the ancient necropolis of Memphis, home to the world’s first pyramid – the Step Pyramid of Djoser. Dive deep into Egypt’s history as your Egyptologist guide unravels the significance of the Step Pyramid and other tombs in the area. Next, travel to Dahshur, where you’ll explore the Red Pyramid and the Bent Pyramid, marveling at the architectural experiments of the pharaohs. With fewer crowds than Giza, this tour offers a peaceful and enriching journey into Egypt’s past.
