Highlights
This isn’t your average pyramid tour. With a private Egyptologist as your guide, you’ll unlock stories hidden in stone — from the birth of pyramid architecture at Saqqara to the political power of Memphis and the quiet majesty of Dahshur. Unlike the crowds at Giza, this tour takes you to lesser-visited wonders where you can explore at your own pace, often with the sites nearly to yourself. Hotel pickup, flexible pacing, and a focus on authentic insight make this a seamless, enriching experience for history lovers and curious travelers alike.
Itinerary
Saqqara (Sakkara) Pyramids
2 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedYour first stop is Saqqara, home to the world’s oldest pyramid — the Step Pyramid of Djoser. Far less crowded than Giza, this vast necropolis offers a more intimate encounter with Egypt’s ancient past. Wander through ancient tombs decorated with remarkably preserved hieroglyphs, and descend into burial chambers that have stood for over 4,000 years. With your private Egyptologist, you'll gain context that brings the stones to life — from architectural innovation to royal rituals.Memphis and Sakkara
1 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedNext, you’ll visit the open-air museum of Memphis, the first capital of a unified Egypt. Set beneath the shade of palm trees, the museum grounds feature colossal statues of Ramses II and the enigmatic alabaster Sphinx. Your guide will share how this once-bustling city served as a hub for politics, religion, and culture in ancient times — and why its legacy still shapes Egypt today.Dahshur lake
2 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedYour final stop is Dahshur, a true hidden gem where the crowds thin and the pyramids rise untouched. Here you’ll explore the Bent Pyramid, an architectural experiment that still puzzles archaeologists, and the Red Pyramid, where you can actually venture inside the main chamber. The silence, the scale, and the freedom to explore make this part of the day unforgettable. With fewer tourists and sweeping desert views, Dahshur is Egypt at its most raw and awe-inspiring.
