Private Full Day Tour to Giza Pyramids, Saqqara & Memphis

Stroll along the base of all three Pyramids of Giza, take a closer look at the three smaller pyramids built for royal queens, before heading to the desert viewpoint, the spot where Khufu (Cheops), Khafre (Chephren), and Menkaure (Mykerinos) align in one sweeping frame.

💡Good to Know: Entry inside the Great Pyramid requires a separate ticket with strict daily limits. Book in advance with us, and we will secure your entrance ahead of time.

Descend from the plateau into the Sphinx enclosure, where the Great Sphinx of Giza, a colossal figure with the body of a lion and a human face, stands guard beside the granite Valley Temple of Khafre. Built from massive blocks of Aswan granite, the temple is one of the best-preserved monuments of Egypt’s Old Kingdom, and its remarkably intact columns and polished stonework offer a rare glimpse into how these ancient temples once looked.

Take a break from sightseeing with a relaxed traditional Egyptian lunch away from the tourist strip. Sit back, cool off, and recharge before resuming our adventure.

Visit the Step Pyramid of Djoser, the world’s oldest monumental stone structure and a remarkable turning point in the story of Egyptian pyramid building. Explore the restored funerary complex built for King Djoser and step inside an ancient tomb and look for traces of the scenes and colours that once decorated its walls. 

Saqqara brings the story further back, showing how the stepped pyramid form emerged before the smooth-sided giants of the Giza Plateau.

💡 Insider Reveal: Look beyond Djoser to the Pyramid of Unas, whose burial chamber preserves some of Egypt’s earliest known Pyramid Texts, then step into the Tomb of Princess Idut for vivid scenes of everyday life, and the nearby Tomb of Kagemni adds another remarkable glimpse into Old Kingdom life

Step into the ancient city of Memphis at the open-air museum of Mit Rahina, once the capital of a unified Egypt. See the colossal limestone statue of one of Egypt’s most powerful pharaohs, Ramses II, and the beautifully carved alabaster sphinx, then take a slower, shaded walk through this final stop of the day.

💡 Insider Reveal: Recognize this name? Ramses II, whose colossal statue lies here at Memphis, was also the pharaoh behind Abu Simbel. His Great Temple was carved into the rock of Nubia and fronted by four enormous statues of the king.
