Half day tour to Dendara

Marwa fatafeat elsoket was my tour guide for Dendara and she did an excellent job explaining the temple to me and all its fascinating inscriptions and stories with some free time allowed for me to take extra pictures. A very nice half day getaway from Luxor and Dendara is absolutely beautiful.

Stunning trip to Hathor Temple

Dandera Temple for someone interested in ancient Egypt is a must. But doing it solo is not a good idea. Our guide Ablaa described everything for us perfectly. She answered all our questions (and we asked a lot), she has amazing knowledge, and was really friendly! She described all of the gods, told us their history, and tought us how to distiguish them. We had different guides across multiple trips, but she is our number 1.

Great experience at Dendara temple

Great experience visiting Dendera - everything was smooth and well organised. Our guide Momo was a fantastic: knowledgeable, friendly, and very helpful throughout. He made the history easy to follow and the whole experience really enjoyable. I'd definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Luxor! Thanks also to our very friendly and nice driver Mahmoud.

Sublime tour and great guide

An excellent day with an exciting guide Bishoy Edwar, who took the time to detail each plot of the temple in Dendara. A sublime and peaceful site that is definitely worth visiting. Thank you for this great time with a very friendly and professional guide
