Privat Saqqara, Memphis & Dahshur dagstur med Egyptolog
Beskrivning
Stå framför trappstegspyramiden i Djoser, det äldsta stenmonumentet på jorden, med knappt en turist i sikte. Denna privata dagstur byter ut Giza-folkmassorna mot tre lugnare underverk, var och en levandegjord av din egen licensierade egyptolog. Vid Saqqara kan du spåra var pyramidbyggandet började. I Memphis markerar den fallna kolossen Ramses II och den stora alabastersfinxen Egyptens första huvudstad. Vid Dahshur kan du gå upp och röra vid Böjda pyramiden och Röda pyramiden i Sneferu, experimenten som gjorde Giza möjligt. De 4 600 - år gamla stenarna ligger där under din hand. Det är bara du, din Guide, och ett luftkonditionerat fordon med hotellhämtning. Ingen shopping, ingen stress, ingen delad tränare. Du bestämmer takten medan din Guide fyller i berättelserna bakom stenen. Perfekt för historieälskare och alla som vill ha den djupare, lugnare sidan av det gamla Egypten. Du kommer att lämna förstå hur pyramiderna verkligen kom till.

Resplan
Du kommer fram till Saqqara, hem till trapppyramiden i Djoser, den äldsta stenpyramiden på jorden. Långt tystare än Giza, låter denna stora nekropol dig utforska i din egen takt. Du går bland gravar dekorerade med anmärkningsvärt bevarade hieroglyfer och kliver ner i gravkammare som har stått i över 4 000 år. Din privata egyptolog väcker stenarna till liv, förklarar hur pyramidbyggandet började här och vad ristningarna verkligen betyder.
Du fortsätter till Memphis, den första huvudstaden i ett enat Egypten, som ligger bland skuggande palmer. Här står du framför den kolossala fallna statyn av Ramses II och den stora alabastersfinxen, huggen ur ett enda stenblock. Din Guide förklarar hur denna en gång mäktiga stad styrde politiken, religionen och handeln i den antika världen, och varför så lite av det finns kvar ovan jord idag.
Ditt sista stopp är Dahshur, där folkmassorna tunnas ut och öknen öppnar sig. Du går ända fram till den böjda pyramiden och den röda pyramiden i Sneferu och kan lägga din hand på stenar som lades för 4 600 år sedan, något som den stora pyramiden i Giza inte längre tillåter. Vid Röda pyramiden kan du klättra ner i gravkammaren. Med vidsträckt utsikt över öknen och nästan ingen i närheten är detta det forntida Egypten när det är som tystast och mest verkligt.

Our guide Tarek was outstanding. Super nice, friendly, and very knowledgeable. The trip was amazing.
This was the first of the 2 tours we booked from Egypt Day Tours, during late November. We were picked up from our hotel at 8 in the morning in a (clean and new) private sedan by our driver and Sara, our tour guide. The tour was excellent. Sara was very polite, friendly and knowledgeable, and gave us the full history of the places we visited, such use, historical details, explanation of the hieroglyphs etc. Also, compliments to the driver, for his calm and safe driving. The tour started with Sakkara, where you can find some of the best preserved burial sites, continued with Danshour, where you can enter one, or both pyramids and finished at Memphis where you can see the giant statue of Ramses II. We were treated to a tasty meal at a very nice restaurant (soft drinks were $1 extra) and returned to our hotel during early afternoon. They offered to continue the tour, if we wanted to visit anything else, but we were to tired, as it was our 4th day in Cairo. All in all, I highly recommend Egypt Day Tours. They were easy to communicate via email, transparent about the itinerary and pricing and they all went above and beyond to help us have a great time. I rarely see such levels of professionalism and whenever I'll return to Egypt to visit Luxor, I will contact them.
We were excited to make the tour with a knowledgeable archeologist who showed us a variety of tombs and pyramids and provided a comprehensive lesson on Egypt. He was fabulous!

This was an excellent tour. Our guide Sayed Bazuka was very knowledgeable, informative and very attentive to my elderly parents. We were able to explore authentic Egyptian crafts as well during the trip. Well worth it.

We spent the day with Ahmed visiting Saqqara, the Red and Bent Pyramids and Memphis. Ahmed proved to be a thoroughly knowledgable and passionate guide. He was flexible (allowing us to sleep in an extra 30 minutes before starting out!) and pleasant. The information he provided about all of the sites we visited gave us a much clearer understanding of what we saw. As it was the first time we had seen the pyramids in person, we were fortunate to have Ahmed guiding us. Thanks for a great introduction to Egypt, Ahmed.
Sayed was an excellent guide for our trip to Sakkara, Memphis and Dahshur! Pickup was on time and everything went extremely smoothly. We also really appreciated the snacks and drinks! And getting to go inside the Bent Pyramid and Red Pyramid was really amazing! Sayed is a legitimate Egyptologist and shared so much fascinating information we never would have known otherwise. He was also great to just talk to and spend the day with, and took tons of great pictures for us. We definitely recommend this tour and asking for Sayed as your guide!!
I must say this have been best tour I have ever had. The booking process and after booking support was amazing. The provider answered all questions I had and my expectations were well set. The tour guide was very professional and and knowlegeable. It has been a tour in which history, attraction and enjoyment made a unique and tailored experience. Thanks again for the amazing service, and will definitely recommend your services.

I really enjoyed the outing with the professional guide being well versed in ancient egyptology. Saw some of the best artifacts and views the ancient world has to offer! Highly recommended!
Very organised company. We booked on-line and they were always very fast to answer and help us with all our questions. Our guide was a really nice guy and always helpful and took us in a very well organised one day tour.
We booked a last minute trip and the travel company had no problem taking our booking. Hosni our guide and driver were on time. Hosni gave us plenty of information about ANCIENT ancient Egyptian history. Information that we didn't hear about in our other tours. They took us to a great outdoor restaurant, the best food we had in Egypt! They met our requests without hesitation. I'd recommend this tour to my friends.
