Tour Itinerary

Enjoy an interesting journey with our detailed itinerary for the Cairo Airport Tour to Memphis, Saqqara, and Dahshur. To begin with, this wonderful trip will start with picking up our guests from the airport and driving them in a private car with air conditioning to see the following amazing places:

Firstly, Saqqara Step Pyramid: Imhotep, the genius architect and primary vizier for King Djoser, built the step pyramid, between 2670 BC and 2650 BC, to be the oldest and largest cut-stone tower in the world and the first pyramid complex of this type.

Secondly, Memphis City: The dream of their cherished civilization, starting in the 31st century BC as the first metropolis in Egypt and the lifeblood of the two countries. Lying some 20 kilometers south of Cairo, it was situated from the ancient ruins of the previous monarchy.

Egyptian Meal is provided

Finally, Pyramids of Dahshur: The entire region of Dahshur is a huge royal necropolis only 40 kilometers (25 miles) south of Cairo, notable for housing some of the world’s largest, oldest, and best-preserved structures dating from 2613 to 2589 BC. Some of the most well-known pyramids in Dahshur include the Bent Pyramid of Pharaoh Sneferu, dating from 2613 BC-2589 BC, the Red Pyramid dating from 2575 BC-2551 BC, and the Black Pyramid of Amenemhat III dating from 1860 BC-1814 BC.

We will transfer our clients back to Cairo Airport thereafter, for the end of the excursion. Lunch is included in the tour for it to be as realistic and fulfilling as possible.

Alexandria! Wow!

November 7, 2024

Muhammad is the best! He showed me a world I never thought possible! The tombs in Alexandria by far was my favorite! I never knew there was a place on earth that contained both Greek and Egyptian carvings in the same tombs! The history and culture of Egypt is so fascinating! I highly recommend booking with Muhammad!

Despite a late start due to car trouble, Mohamed more than made up for it with his incredible knowledge and dedication. His explanations were detailed and thoughtful, and he went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. A memorable and informative tour, thanks to Mohamed’s hard work!

AMAZING TOUR, SOLO TRAVELER.

October 12, 2024

I am a California woman who traveled to Egypt alone and thanks to Egypt Fun Tours I had a great time. Hani, Mohammed, Kamal and David (my driver) were very professional and very knowledgeable, I appreciate how respectful they were and how protective they were with me.

They show me everything I wanted to see in Cairo and nearby places like Saqqara, Memphis, etc. Thanks to them I had a great time in Egypt, they were so so helpful than on my second day they helped me to move from my hotel in Giza to the Steigenberger hotel in downtown Cairo.

The tour price is super good includes a guide (expert in the field) a driver, lunch and drinks, they took me to amazing places for lunch, the food was super super delicious, for a foodie like me that was a highlight. We went out fo the tourist traps and I got to see the Cairo that if you are in a bus tour you will never get to see.

This tour is personalized for each person depending of what you want to see and do, I absolutely love it.

I used WhatsApp to communicate with Hani and arranged all my tours, Hani was super super nice since the moment I contacted him and explained him what I wanted to do and see.

Hani and his group mesmerized me with the tours they put together, this is a memory I will keep for lifetime.

I had only good things to say about them and I highly recommend them.

I did visit the pyramids in Giza, downtown Cairo, new Cairo, several museums, Coptic Cairo and Muslim Cairo with them and I learned a lot from them, I felt like they were family to me and it was EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT.

If I go back to Egypt I will hire them again without hesitation.

David I take my hat off for you because I have NO IDEA how you can drive in crazy Cairo, thanks to all of you for making this lady’s dream a reality.
