The steep descending passage 57 feet (17 meters) long leads to a horizontal passage, just below the original ground level, that then leads to a vertical shaft 10 feet (3.0 meters) high that leads to the corbelled burial chamber itself.

Great time - I had a very good time on a tour to Meidum and Dahshur. Driver was Wael. Wael was equipped with a very comfortable modern car with AC. He did a great job getting us to Dahshur despite the road closures. I thought it would take longer, but he deftly navigated his way on the backroads and streets. While at the sites, Wael also guided me and translated explanations along the way. I would recommend Wael as the driver to anyone visiting Egypt.
