Itinerary
-
Saqqara and Memphis Tour
- Get picked up from your hotel in Cairo or Giza, meet your guide and head south of Cairo.
- Reach Saqqara and see the highlight of the place, the Step Pyramid of Zoser (Djoser), which is considered one of the first-ever well-structured pyramids built. The Step Pyramid is comprised of mastabas layers on top of each other, giving its shape today.
- The next stop is at the Bent Pyramids constructed in Dahshur for King Snefru. The Bent Pyramid is a unique structure for being bent, but much of its original limestone still remains.
- The final stop is at Memphis, the old capital of Egypt. The most impressive feature in Memphis is the 34 feet long Statue of Ramses II. You will get impressed by the perfection by which the statue was made and the attention to details that can hardly be matched even by today’s standards.
- Finally, get dropped off at your hotel.
