Giza Pyramids, Memphis & Sakkara Private Day Tour

Message us on WhatsApp with your dates and we will confirm a total price in AED and USD for four travellers, including the private guide, private vehicle, driver and hotel transfers. Because the guide and vehicle are shared across your party rather than charged per head, four people pay far less per person than two. Pyramid interior tickets and the Serapeum are extra, paid in EGP at the gate.

Standard entry to the Giza plateau, Saqqara and Memphis is included in your quoted price. Tickets to go *inside* a pyramid are always separate and paid at the gate in Egyptian pounds — this applies to the Great Pyramid of Khufu, Khafre, Menkaure and the Step Pyramid of Djoser. The Serapeum of Saqqara is also separately ticketed.

Yes, comfortably, in a private vehicle. The three sites sit within about an hour of each other south of Cairo. It feels rushed only on a shared coach tour that waits for 40 strangers. Because this day is private, you get a well-paced morning at Giza, a substantial visit to Saqqara and a short, focused stop at Memphis without hurrying.

Add Dahshur if pyramids are the reason you came to Egypt. The Bent Pyramid and Red Pyramid are older, emptier and you can often walk up to them alone — you will understand how pyramid building evolved. It adds extra hours to the day and a later return. If you have children or an evening flight, skip it. See the [Giza, Memphis, Dahshur and Saqqara tour](https://bestegyptholidays.com/tours/giza-memphis-dahshur-saqqara).

Message us your flight details and we will confirm arrival-day pickup arrangements. Many Gulf flights land early morning, which makes an arrival-day tour practical. Tell us your flight number when booking so the driver tracks the arrival.

Yes. Ask at pickup and the driver will stop at a mosque, and the guide will plan the day around prayer times rather than squeezing them in. Halal food is standard throughout Egypt, so lunch is halal by default. If you want a specific restaurant or a set budget, tell us when you book.

Book the Grand Egyptian Museum first if you have two days, because it frames everything you then see at Giza and Saqqara. If you only have one day and want the pyramids themselves, book this tour. Do not attempt the GEM and Saqqara on the same day — you will do both badly.

November to March. Daytime temperatures on the Giza plateau are pleasant and the walking is easy. From May to September the plateau is fiercely hot with no shade, so we start earlier and may reverse the running order. Eid and Christmas–New Year are the busiest dates and the ones that sell out first.

Cancellation terms, including deposit requirements and any free-cancellation windows, are set out in full on our [deposit and cancellation policy](https://bestegyptholidays.com/legal/refunds) page. Nothing changes after you book — the price you are quoted is the price you pay. ---
