Saqqara Like Never Before 2 Pyramids 7 Tombs Treasures and Museum
A trusted partner experience, hand-picked and featured on This is Egypt.
Overview
Saqqara is not just the Step Pyramid—it is Egypt’s eternal city of the dead, where history whispers from every stone. Wander through the tomb of Seshot Idut, alive with scenes of ancient life, marvel at the artistry inside Ka-Gemni and Mereruka’s mastabas, and uncover the pyramids of Teti and Unas, where the first Pyramid Texts still echo with sacred spells. Step into the New Kingdom tombs, telling stories of nobles and priests long gone, and admire treasures preserved inside the Saqqara Museum. And then—the Serapeum: a vast underground labyrinth housing gigantic granite sarcophagi, once holding the sacred Apis bulls, a place that stuns every visitor with its scale and mystery. This is the real Saqqara Experience—complete, breathtaking, and unforgettable. While others only offer you a glimpse of the Step Pyramid, we reveal the full hidden world of Egypt’s most mysterious necropolis

Basem escorted us to Saqqara where we visited the Djoser stepped pyramid. The entrance hall is spectacular with perfect block work from the 6th dynasty, 2350 BC!
