What to expect
Great Pyramids and more
You will visit three main historical zones of Ancient Egypt:
- Memphis - explore the ruins of the first capital of unified Egypt on the western bank of the Nile. Uncover its history and hear about King Menes. Enjoy the palm groves, admire the huge statue of Ramesses II, and see what remains of the Ptah temple.
- Saqqara - a giant ancient necropolis consisting of numerous monuments. I will show you the step pyramid of Djoser and the Book of the Dead texts on the walls of the Unas pyramid. I will share the secrets and stories related to them.
