The Serapeum of Saqqara is one of the most unique archaeological sites in Egypt. Walking through the underground tunnels and seeing the enormous granite sarcophagi of the sacred Apis bulls is an unforgettable experience. The site is rich in history and mystery, making it a must-visit for anyone interested in ancient Egyptian civilization.

Saqqara, Memphis, and the Serapeum tour is one of the most impressive historical experiences in Egypt. In Saqqara, you witness the Step Pyramid of King Djoser, the first monumental stone building in the history of humanity and the beginning of pyramid construction. Then we visit Memphis, the first capital of ancient Egypt and the political and cultural center for over a thousand years. Finally, we explore the mysterious Serapeum, where the sacred Apis bulls were buried inside massive granite sarcophagi weighing dozens of tons .

Had the most incredible and special tour today, thanks to my awesome guide Mahmoud Sallam, and great driver Ayman! Mahmoud’s knowledge of all the sides and history was clearly and patiently explained with passion and heart. He took some incredible photos with me, and was friendly, kind and enjoyable to listen to. As a DOOP female traveller o felt safe, secure and respected. This was the best tour I had from all of my 4 previous trips to Egypt and I would highly recommend him again and again! He also spoke Japanese which was a great bonus, since I lived and worked in Japan as an English teacher

マフムードさんは、とても親切で日本語が流暢な方でした。遺跡についても色々説明していただき、我々への質問にも丁寧に答えてくださいました。それぞれの遺跡を堪能できたのは、このツアーのおかげです。サッカラや屈折のピラミッド等は、個人での移動は厳しいと思うので、是非このツアーをおすすめします!
