1 Day Egyptian Pyramids, Sakkara & Dahshur Tour

Description

A fantastic tour of Egypt’s most iconic pyramids. Visit the Pyramids of Giza, the Step Pyramid at Sakkara, and the Red and Bent Pyramids at Dahshur. This is a fantastic day trip to experience the evolution of Ancient Egyptian construction methods. The magnificent pyramids of Giza, the last of the ancient world’s Seven Wonders still standing, are among the most well-known and widely-discussed buildings in human history. These enormous monuments continue to astound and fascinate us with their overwhelming mass and seemingly unachievable perfection.

Numerous ideas regarding their origins, including unproven claims that they have extraterrestrial origins, have been inspired by their exacting orientation and mind-boggling design. But it becomes evident from looking at the few hundred years before they appeared on the Giza plateau that these amazing constructions were the result of numerous attempts, some of which were more successful than others, and that they constitute an apogee in line with the growth of the royal burial complex.

Today, at about 07:00 a.m., your private tour guide – driver will pick you up from your Cairo or Giza hotel and take you on an excursion to the Red Pyramid and Bent Pyramid in Dahshur. Dahshur is a well-known royal necropolis in Egypt that is home to numerous iconic Pyramids, including the Red and Bent Pyramids of King Snefru. The location is around 40 kilometers from Cairo. Visit the Step Pyramid of Zoser, the world’s oldest significant stone building. It was constructed for King Djoser in the third dynasty (about 2630 BC). It was constructed for King Djoser during the 3rd Dynasty (about 2630 BC).
