Egypt on the map

Must-see places to visit in Egypt

If you do not yet know which destinations to choose in Egypt, I suggest a map showing the main cities of the country: Alexandria, Cairo, Luxor, Aswan, and the Siwa Oasis.
Each of these destinations is full of cultural activities and relaxing moments. Some visits are a must-see, while others allow you to get off the beaten path and discover Egypt differently. Depending on your wishes and needs, I can also suggest authentic places that are not necessarily included in this list.

For example, here is a service for 2 people including an air-conditioned car with driver, lunch and the accompaniment of an Egyptologist guide:

Memphis and Saqqara

: The Step Pyramid, Sakkara, Egypt – July 26, 2022: Saqqara, also spelled Sakkara or Saccara in English is an Egyptian village in Giza Governorate, that contains ancient burial grounds of Egyptian royalty, serving as the necropolis for the ancient Egyptian capital, Memphis. Saqqara contains numerous pyramids, including the Step Pyramid of Djoser, sometimes referred to as the Step Tomb, and a number of mastaba tombs. Located some 30 km (19 mi) south of modern-day Cairo, Saqqara covers an area of around 7 by 1.5 km (4.3 by 0.9 mi). Saqqara contains the oldest complete stone building complex known in history, the Step Pyramid of Djoser, built during the Third Dynasty. Another sixteen Egyptian kings built pyramids at Saqqara, which are now in various states of preservation. High officials added private funeral monuments to this necropolis during the entire Pharaonic period. It remained an important complex for non-royal burials and cult ceremonies for more than 3,000 years, well into Ptolemaic and Roman times.
