Memphis and Sakkara Experience

1. Morning Pickup: Begin Your Historical Journey
Your day begins with a morning pickup from your hotel in Cairo or Giza. Your private driver and Egyptologist guide will take you to the heart of Egypt’s ancient past in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle. As you drive, your guide will provide an introduction to the significance of the sites you’ll be visiting.

2. Explore Memphis: The Ancient Capital of Egypt
Start your exploration at Memphis, the ancient capital of Egypt during the Old Kingdom. Founded by King Menes around 3000 BC, Memphis was once a bustling metropolis and a key religious center. Visit the Open-Air Museum, where you’ll see the magnificent Colossus of Ramses II and the Alabaster Sphinx. Your guide will share insights into the city’s history, its role in the development of Egyptian civilization, and its enduring legacy.

3. Discover Sakkara: The Step Pyramid Complex
Next, journey to Sakkara, home to the famous Step Pyramid of Djoser—the world’s oldest large-scale stone structure. Designed by the architect Imhotep, this pyramid was the prototype for all subsequent pyramids in Egypt. Explore the surrounding complex, including the Pyramid of Unas, Teti Pyramid, and the beautifully decorated Mastaba tombs of high-ranking officials. Your guide will explain the significance of the site and its impact on the evolution of pyramid building in ancient Egypt.

4. Return to Your Hotel: Reflect on Your Day of Discovery
In the afternoon, begin your journey back to Cairo or Giza. As you travel, reflect on the incredible ancient sites and cultural experiences you’ve enjoyed throughout the day. Your driver will drop you off at your hotel, marking the end of your Memphis and Sakkara Experience.
