Memphis & Saqqara
With the Egyptologist guide, visit:
Memphis served as the capital of Upper and Lower Egypt some 5,000 years ago during the 1st Dynasty. Menes, the first pharaoh of this dynasty, built a great white-walled palace and the Temple of Ptah here.
Saqqara: One of the most exciting historical and archaeological areas in all of Egypt is Saqqara, situated about 12 miles south-west of Cairo. The site is dominated by the famous step pyramid of King Zoser. It was the first pyramid to be built in ancient Egypt, preceding those at Giza by many centuries, and is the work of the famous pharaonic architect, Imhotep.
