A Memphis and Saqqara tour from the Safaga or Soma Bay port is a long-distance excursion typically done via a private flight to Cairo or an overland drive. It involves exploring ancient Egypt’s earliest capitals and pioneering pyramid architecture, usually combined with the Giza Pyramids and Sphinx.
Memphis Saqqara Tour Safaga is an individual one-day trip to the Pyramid Complex in Giza, Sakkara, and Memphis from Safaga, Egypt! We recommend this day Trip because it allows tourists to see the most impressive sights and monuments built in Ancient Egypt – the ancient Egyptian pyramids. Also, it lets us learn more about the history of the country.

Itinerary of Excursion to Giza-Sakkara-Memphis
A Memphis and Saqqara Tour from Safaga is a massive but deeply rewarding excursion that takes you from the Red Sea coast straight to the ancient heart of the Old Kingdom near Cairo. Because the driving distance between Safaga and the Cairo/Giza area is roughly 470 kilometers each way (taking about 5.5 to 6 hours by road), this tour is heavily structured around two primary transit options: a long private driving excursion or a much faster domestic flight.
