Tour Details

I dedicate part of the profit of every tour to help stray animals of Egypt in all archaeological sites of my tours. Whatsapp for other tours I make: +201094003150 I don’t waste your time in Bazars and I don’t urge you to buy anything. I'm a licensed guide by the ministry of tourism, so, you will be safe with me. I've studied Egyptology for years in my university and got my license after so many hard exams, and still studying in a non stop journey of knowledge I'll show u inside the amazing earlier pyramids and tombs of Dahshour and Saqqara (Bent pyramid, Unas complex, Djoser pyramid, Underground Serapium) and the remains of memphis (where the grand statue of king ramessis lies) & teach you how to read the hieroglyphs (ancient Egyptian writing) The tour is private including ac car, lunch in a very unique local farm where you can see the authentic life of locals (as i like nature, not routine touristic restaurants).

So if you are (nature-person) like me, this tour is perfect for you

Historical Background

Saqqara served as the necropolis for the ancient Egyptian capital of Memphis and contains the Step Pyramid of Djoser, one of the earliest large-scale stone constructions dating to the 27th century BCE. Dahshur, located south of Saqqara, features pyramids from the Old Kingdom, including the Bent Pyramid and Red Pyramid built under Pharaoh Sneferu around 2600 BCE. Memphis was the administrative and religious center of ancient Egypt, hosting large statues and temples, notably the fallen colossus of Ramesses II.
