2 of the best hidden gems in Egypt.
We had an absolutely amazing day with our guide Hesham. These 2 temples really are the most amazing temples you can Vossy while staying in Luxor. It’s a long drive, but totally worth it and you basically end up with the temples to yourself. The best examples of colour and Intricate hieroglyphs you will find. Thanks so much Hesham for bringing the temple walls to life for us!

It was a cozy and pleasant day trip to Denderas and Abydos. Both the driver and the guide were very helpful. The car is spacious, clean and cool. Our guide Ahmed took excellent care of everything. Both in stories and in our photos. In Abydos, we were treated to delicious traditional dishes.

For those who want to go a little off the beaten track and experience some truly unique and remarkable sites you won’t see on other tours, this is one to book!
Our tour guide Ra has a PhD in Hieroglyphics and gave us a crash course on how to read the rich stories presented in the temples of Dandara and Abydos. Both of these temple complexes are staggering in their complexity, beauty, and size but Ra did a fantastic job in keeping us on track and aware of the significance and history of everything around us. In addition to his deep knowledge of Egyptology, Ra is also an excellent photographer - helping us to capture wonderful photos to remember our day at this sites.
With Hassan as your driver and Ra as your guide, this is definitely a tour to book!
PS: make sure to spend some time at Abydos at behind the temple to see the Osireion, a site full of megalithic mysteries.

A wonderful day !
The excursion to visit the temples of Abydos and Dendera this January 2025 was extraordinary, with an exceptional driver and breathtaking monuments.
It was the first time a tour agency driver arrived ahead of the scheduled time at our hotel.
Must know the Riad is difficult and takes time you will never forget su h experience
Thank you to Eye of Egypt! Abydos and Dendera are truly handled by an agency that lives up to its reputation.

Special day!
Dendera it's a spectacular monument!!! It's so beautiful and Abydos it's also, but it's far away. But don't worry about that because our driver Hossam it was professional and punctual!

The One to Go on!
Having seen and experienced Luxor, Aswan, Memphis, and Giza, Dendera and Abydos are hands down the ones I would go back to again and again! Of course, nothing compares to the great pyramids but temple-wise, Dendera is truly an amazing site. You'll come out with a neck ache from gazing at the ceilings for so long but well worth it. The guide was amazing with insights at each of these places and the driver was super-friendly. One of the best tours I took in Egypt.

A must visit daytrip from Luxor!
Achmed was a very responsible and nice driver, who speaks English. His car was spacious and comfortable. He also provided complimentary water bottles and juices. Furthermore the communication was clear and timely, even though we booked last minute. We were very happy to visite the temples of Dendera and Abydos. They are both an absolute day trip must when you are visiting Luxor. We would highly recommend booking this tour!

A very pleasant trip into the past
Archeologist with PhD and a very experienced driver! What else you can imagine to see marvelous blue colors of Dandera and fine carvings of Abydos!

Great temples and a great guide, but a very long day.
Both temples were amazing and it is unfortunate more people don't see them. Our guide was amazing, very knowledgeable about both sites. If you want to see Abydos and Dendera while you are staying in Luxor be aware this is a very good option.
Be aware that these sites are a long way from Luxor and the roads are quite rough by Western standards - for us it took a lot longer than the 7 hour estimate.
