About This Activity

Stand before the world’s oldest stone monument, a marvel from the 3rd Dynasty, built for the legendary King Djoser.

Your excursion continues just 8 miles south to Dahshur, where you'll explore the mysterious Red Pyramid, known as the first true pyramid in history.

Don't hesitate to visit Egypt. It has a calm and relaxed atmosphere. We highly recommend this tour. The driver was punctual, and the guide's attentiveness made us feel right at home. If you're looking for a Spanish speaking guide, he's the perfect choice. His fluency, knowledge, honesty, advice, and enthusiasm made the experience very enjoyable. The food was delicious, and the guide took the time to explain each dish and how to best enjoy it. This gave us the energy we needed to finish the trip, and we had plenty of laughs along the way. Many thanks to the guide and driver. I just recommend bringing some change for a tip, as most service providers are students who will be truly grateful.
