Dahshur Tours and Tickets

Q: How much does it cost to visit Dahshur in 2026?

It currently costs 200 Egyptian pounds per person to visit Dahshur; students get a 50 percent discount with a valid ID. If you plan on visiting on a multi-stop tour, expect to pay anywhere from US$35 for a private tour or up to US$100 for a VIP trip with luxurious round-trip transportation.

Q: What is Dahshur known for?

Located around 25 miles (40 kilometers) south of Cairo, Dahshur is an ancient archaeological site known for its pyramids. However, unlike Giza, the attraction tends to draw fewer crowds. The most famous sights are the Bent Pyramid, known for its unusual angled shape, and the Red Pyramid, named for its reddish hue.

Q: What do you see on a tour of Dahshur?

Dahshur day trips departing from Cairo typically stop at the Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx, the burial ground of Saqqara (home to the Step-Pyramid of Djoser), and the necropolis of Memphis, once the capital of ancient Egypt. Half-day tours usually only include Dahshur, Saqqara, and Memphis.

Q: What is the best month to visit Dahshur?

The best months to visit Dahshur are the cooler months, roughly from November through April. Visiting Egypt involves a lot of outdoor sightseeing, especially if you’re interested in seeing millennia-old pyramids. Avoid summer, but if you come then, make sure to bring a lot of water and good sun protection.

Q: Is Dahshur good for kids?

Yes, Dahshur is a great destination for kids, especially older children interested in ancient Egypt. Visit with a guide who can help you decode the ruins and offer historical context. Infants and toddlers are trickier and will have to be carried since strollers aren’t great over sand.

John_A, Feb 2026

Wonderful tour of Saqqara, Dahshur and Memphis

As a family of four including two children we spent the day with Hassan (our amazing guide) and Sabry (our excellent driver) exploring Saqqara, Dahshur, and Memphis. Hassan was friendly and deeply knowledgeable about all the monuments and was happy to share that knowledge with us. He was happy to go at our pace and was great with the kids. Sabry drove us carefully and safely in his comfortable minibus. I couldn't recommend this tour highly enough, it was superb!

A great day trip to see many pyramids South of Cairo.

We had an excellent trip. Our driver and guide picked us up on time from the Giza Hotel, and then we headed down to Saqqara first, next on to Dahshur, and finally Giza. Our guide was Hussam and he was very friendly and knowledgeable at all the sites. Because we had a guide with us we also felt 'protected' from other would-be guides and vendors. It's well worth the money to pay for the full package in my opinion.

Ibrahim was an excellent guide. I could tell he loved sharing history with us! Our driver was good as well. They were on time in a nice clean car. He showed us things the large tours would never see. Don’t go down the long dark crawl in the pyramid. Ibrahim has a better one to see and you won’t get harassed for money.

Cairo

Know before you go

*Less crowded than Giza, Dahshur is a great choice for photographers and Instagrammers looking for a pyramid picture without the touts and tourists. *The site is very exposed. Wear a hat and sunscreen even at cooler times of year. *Sandy terrain makes Dahshur a challenging choice for travelers who rely on wheelchairs, although a 4WD can get you up close to enjoy the views.
