Travel back to the very beginning of pyramid history on this fascinating private journey to the lesser-visited royal necropolises south of Cairo.
Start at the desert site of Dahshur, home to the unique Bent Pyramid and the impressive Red Pyramid — two of the earliest true pyramids ever built and a major step in the evolution of pyramid design.
Continue to Saqqara, where you’ll stand before the legendary Step Pyramid of King Djoser, the first large stone structure in human history and the blueprint for all pyramids that followed.
End your day in Memphis, Egypt’s first capital, where colossal statues and ancient relics reveal the power of the Old Kingdom.
This private tour is perfect for history lovers who want to go beyond the famous Giza Pyramids and explore where pyramid architecture truly began.
