Discover the fascinating origins of ancient Egyptian civilization on this Tour to Saqqara, Memphis and Dahshur. This full-day private historical tour takes you beyond the famous Giza Pyramids to explore three of Egypt's most important archaeological sites and follow the development of pyramid construction through thousands of years of history.
Your journey begins with pickup from your hotel in Cairo or Giza. Meet your professional Egyptologist guide and travel comfortably in a private air-conditioned vehicle toward Saqqara, one of Egypt's oldest and most important necropolises.
Explore the famous Step Pyramid of Djoser, considered one of the earliest large-scale stone monuments in history. Designed during the Third Dynasty, this remarkable structure represents an important stage in the evolution of ancient Egyptian architecture and pyramid building.
Continue to the ancient city of Memphis, the first capital of unified Egypt. Once an important political and religious center, Memphis is now an open-air museum where you can see remarkable archaeological remains, including the impressive colossal statue of Ramesses II.
Your final major destination is Dahshur, a quieter archaeological area famous for its unique pyramids. Visit the remarkable Bent Pyramid and Red Pyramid, both built during the reign of Pharaoh Sneferu. These monuments demonstrate important developments in pyramid construction before the building of the famous pyramids at Giza.
With your expert Egyptologist guide, learn about ancient Egyptian kings, architecture, religion, burial traditions, and the remarkable engineering achievements that transformed early tombs into the monumental pyramids we recognize today.
This private day trip is perfect for history lovers, archaeology enthusiasts, photographers, and travelers who want to explore Egypt beyond the traditional tourist route. Experience ancient monuments in a more peaceful atmosphere while discovering the foundations of pyramid building and the history of Egypt's first great capital.

I am 6 feet tall and 220 lbs. This shirt fit me perfectly in the chest and shoulders. My only complaint is that it is so long! I like to wear polo shirts untucked. This shirt goes completely past my rear end. If I wore it with ordinary shorts, you probably wouldnt be able to see the shorts at all – completely hidden by the shirt. It needs to be 4 to 5 inches shorter in terms of length to suit me. I have many RL polo shirts, and this one is by far the longest. I dont understand why.

The shirt was not the fabric I believed it to be. It says Classic Fit but was made like the older versions, not the soft cotton like my others. I don’t understand how the labels are the same but a completely different shirt. Oh well, stuck with it now.
