1-Day Saqqara and Dahshur Pyramids Tour

Saqqara and Dahshur Pyramids Tour Itinerary

Since our Saqqara and Dahshur Pyramids Tour last for about 8 hours and cover quite an extensive area, we like to set out from your hotel at around 07h00 but if this is too early, we can always pick you up slightly later.

Once one of our tour representative has met you at your hotel, you will then be driven to the ancient royal necropolis of Dahshur to see the Red Pyramid; the Bent Pyramid and several small pyramids, all of which date back to the reign of Pharaoh Snefru.

After Dashur, you will be driven to another ancient necropolis to see the Step Pyramid of Djoser which was the very first pyramid ever built. It was constructed during the 3rd Dynasty for Pharaoh Djoser. This is also the oldest major stone structure in the world and was completed in about 2630 BC.

Once your tour of this site ends, you will be driven back to your hotel.
