Private day tour to Sakkara and Egyptian museum

Overview

This private tour takes you to two of Egypt’s most important sites: the Step Pyramid — described as the oldest complete building of stone in history — and the Egyptian Museum, which holds the biggest collection of ancient Egyptian artefacts in the world. You will visit both places on a guided, private itinerary that focuses on the monuments themselves. At the Step Pyramid you will see its monumental stone structure and get a sense of why it is considered such an early achievement in construction. Along the way you will learn about its place in history and its architectural significance. At the Egyptian Museum you will move among an extensive range of ancient Egyptian artefacts, encountering a broad representation of material culture from that civilisation. Together, the two sites offer a concentrated look at ancient Egyptian building techniques and the objects that have survived to tell its story.
