Private Half Day Memphis And Sakkara Tour

Start your day with a visit to Memphis, the ancient capital founded by Menes, located southeast of its cemetery at Saqqara. Explore the sculpture garden within the Ptah Temple complex, where architectural fragments and statues, including the massive statue of Ramses II, are displayed. Admire the dominating presence of the Sphinx and various stelae and Coptic columns in this historic site.

Continue your journey to Sakkara, where you'll see the Step Pyramid, a testament to the architectural experimentation of Imhotep, the renowned ancient Egyptian architect. Witness the evolution of pyramid design as Imhotep modified the structure from a standard mastaba to a four-stepped and then a six-stepped pyramid. Explore the southern and eastern walls to observe these changes and remnants of the original casing.
