The oldest structures in Cairo date back only to the last couple of centuries BC during Greco-Roman period; however, on the fringes of the city stand the Giza Pyramids, some of the oldest structures on Earth. Despite their proximity to Cairo, the difference in age between the pyramids and the city itself are proof of their different histories.
The pyramids at Giza and elsewhere in the desert near Cairo are a part of the legacy of an older city and civilization that fell into decline long before Cairo was founded. This civilization named this area Memphis, which was the seat of power to the Old Kingdom (2686—2181 BC) of Ancient Egypt, home to the pharaohs that raised the pyramids.
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: Saqqara (Sakkara) Pyramids, Al Giza Desert, Saqqara 12919 Egypt
Saqqara is one of several other notable necropolis sites near Cairo that offer impressive sights and hold great archaeological significance. In fact, Saqqara may hold more interest to archaeologists than Giza. The huge site hosts burials dating from before the beginning of the Old Kingdom up through the Greek Period of Egyptian history.
The most famous structure by far at Saqqara is Djoser’s Step Pyramid. Dating from the 3rd dynasty (2667—2448 BC), it was the first all-stone complex ever built on earth. It also displays an important architectural innovation for the construction of the Giza Pyramids and other later pyramids in the 4th dynasty and later.
Djoser’s pyramid was the first to use multiple mastabas (rectangular tomb structures) stacked on top of one another to form a step pyramid.This construction set the stage for the smooth sides of the Giza Pyramids and the smaller 5th and 6th dynasty pyramids that are found at Saqqara and other sites nearby, such as Dahshur and Abu Sir.

I wanted to have a personal guide to visit the Pyramids and we had a great one! Ibrahim was our guide and we really had the best times with him. He was very friendly to us and called the wife ´Queen´our daughter ´Princess`and i was ´the Boss´. We took his advice not to go inside in one of the Giza pyramids and he made it possible for us to go in the tomb in Sakkara, very impressive! If you need a guide, ask for Ibrahim.

Well organised from start to finish. Morsi was a great guide and offered his knowledge throughout the day. All the stops were thoroughly explained and catered to both ourselves and our 2 children (aged 7 and 5) in perfect English. Worth adding that the food stop was excellent too and much better than previous inclusive tours we’ve been on with others. Also recognised well when we had finished or had enough at each part of the tour. Would highly recommend.So rare to find a really professional, knowledgeable guide. In Egypt. We found, Ibrahim Taye from Delux Tours. Fun, easygoing tour with great knowledge. The day flew very fast. Was really amazing!
