Overview

You will spend a private day with an expert Egyptology guide exploring Dahshour. At the site you will see the Bent Pyramid and the Red Pyramid, both built during the reign of King Sneferu (2613–2589 BC). Other monuments at Dahshur date to the 12th and 13th dynasties, including the White Pyramid of Amenemhet II, the Black Pyramid of Amenemhet III and the Pyramid of Senusret III. You will also encounter many tombs of nobles and officials from different ages. After exploring the monuments, a local, authentic lunch will be served in an outdoor restaurant set among palm trees. You will then travel to the Meidum Pyramid, located 65 km south of Saqqara. The Meidum Pyramid has a special magic and is one of those sites that had, and still keeps, many secrets. After this site visit you will travel back to your hotel.
