    Visit to Saqqara, Memphis and Giza Pyramids with Mostafa

    A visit to Saqqara, Memphis and Giza pyramids with Mostafa Ortega was amazing. From seeing the beautiful tomb of King Unas, the bent and red pyramid from Saqqara, to the giant statue of Rameses II in Memphis and the grand finale, the three pyramid tombs of grandfather (Khufu), son (Khafre) and grandson (Menkaure) at Giza. An experience I would not trade for anything. Definitely recommend this one. Ps, don’t forget to buy the scarf for great photos when catching that camel ride to see all 9 Giza pyramids in one view.

    +

    +

    Around 25 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    When is the best time to visit Giza?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Giza?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +
