• Saqqara (Sakkara) Pyramids - Begin your journey with a pick-up from your chosen location by your tour guide to explore the three ancient necropolises. The tour kicks off at the Saqqara necropolis, where you will visit the Pyramid of Djoser, the world’s earliest colossal stone structure. This pyramid is a cornerstone of Egyptian history, serving as a model for subsequent pyramids with enhancements.
  The pyramids at Giza and other desert locations near Cairo are remnants of an ancient city and civilization that declined long before Cairo’s establishment. This civilization named the area Memphis, which was the power center of the Old Kingdom (2686—2181 BC) of Ancient Egypt, home to the pharaohs who constructed the pyramids.

• Red Pyramid - Also known as the North Pyramid, it is considered the first classic pyramid built in ancient Egyptian history. It is called “red” due to its reddish limestone, quarried from the Tura Mountains in Cairo. Visitors can enter the pyramid for free!

• Dahshur Bent & Red Pyramid - This site is a unique example of early pyramid development in Egypt, being the second pyramid constructed by Sneferu. It is the only pyramid in Egypt that still retains its outer layer and remains in good condition. Visitors can enter this pyramid as it is now open. (Please refrain from entering if you are claustrophobic or have any health issues, as it is quite challenging and requires physical fitness.)

• Saqqara (Sakkara) Pyramids - Saqqara is one of several notable necropolis sites near Cairo, offering impressive sights and significant archaeological value. Saqqara may even hold more interest for archaeologists than Giza. This vast site contains burials dating from before the Old Kingdom through the Greek Period of Egyptian history.
  The most renowned structure at Saqqara is Djoser’s Step Pyramid. Dating from the 3rd dynasty (2667—2448 BC), it was the first all-stone complex ever constructed on earth. It also introduced an important architectural innovation for the construction of the Giza Pyramids and other later pyramids in the 4th dynasty and beyond.

Djoser’s pyramid was the first to utilize multiple mastabas (rectangular tomb structures) stacked to form a step pyramid. This construction paved the way for the smooth-sided Giza Pyramids and the smaller 5th and 6th dynasty pyramids found at Saqqara and nearby sites like Dahshur and Abu Sir.
