Answers of the questions you're thinking about

Have a Question?

Memphis and Saqqara have a connection they are not the same first; Memphis was the oldest city and first capital of Ancient Egypt, a city of great importance in terms of culture and trade while Saqqara was its great cemetery, a huge area densely populated by burials of pharaohs and the nobility and well-known landmarks like the Step Pyramid of Djoser. these two sites speak about the earlier periods of the formation of the Egyptian dynasties, which gives the reasons to visit them while on an Egyptian trip!

In ancient Egypt, Saqqara was the most important cemetery in the city of Memphis. Memphis, being the capital, meant having a nearby Cemetary where all the pharaohs and nobles could build their tombs. Such closeness guaranteed that even Saqqara would develop into an important center of religious and architectural activities, it would become a significant part of Egypt’s interesting history.

With Respect Egypt Tours, visiting the sites is just one part of what we do: we create Egypt for you to live in. Whether it is Egyptologists, A/C cars, or getting you to the hotels as you go along with your Saqqara and Memphis tour, everything is taken care of. When you travel with us, we carefully plan every step of the journey.

Saqqara is famous for being home to the world’s oldest pyramid, the Step Pyramid of Djoser, designed by the brilliant architect Imhotep. But beyond that, Saqqara offers a treasure trove of tombs, artifacts, and intricate wall carvings that reveal insights into ancient Egyptian life. It's an open-air museum where history comes alive under the desert sky!

Not only was Memphis the capital of Egypt, it also functioned as the center of administration, religion, and culture for several decades. The pharaohs who ruled from Memphis transformed Egypt into a world power and did so with style, building impressive statues and monuments that bore their name. The sites of Memphis and Saqqara allow tourists to see Egypt at its early development stages and its splendid beginnings.

A visit to Saqqara and Memphis allows you to experience the birthplace of Egyptian architecture and discover the origins of the pyramid-building tradition. It’s an opportunity to walk through time, where pharaohs built their legacy and where colossal statues and intricate carvings still whisper the stories of a glorious past.
