Cairo: Sakkara, Memphis & Pyramids Private Tour

About this activity

On this day trip from your hotel in Cairo or Giza, see the Sakkara region, the ruins of the city of Memphis, and the Giza pyramid complex to go back in time to ancient Egypt.

With this transportation from Cairo or Giza to the Sakkara area, Memphis, Egypt’s first capital, and the Giza Pyramid complex, you may explore the structures from the 3rd to 6th dynasties. Take bottled water with you when you travel privately. Enjoy the simplicity of being picked up from your Cairo or Giza lodgings. As you travel to the Sakkara region, unwind in an air-conditioned vehicle. Stop in Sakkara to see the mastaba-style tombs and get a ticket into the Necropolis. View pyramids from the third, fifth, and sixth dynasties when you visit the Step Pyramid of Djoser. Before travelling to Memphis, take a stroll in the desert. Tickets must be purchased to view the remaining structures, which include an alabaster Sphinx, a huge statue of Ramses II, and a statue of the local deity Ptah.

Visit the Cheops, Khaphren, and Mychreanos pyramids of the 4th dynasty at the Giza Pyramid complex. Before returning to your lodgings in Cairo or Giza, admire the enormous Sphinx statue and take advantage of the chance to go on an optional camel ride.
