In the morning, our representative will meet you at your selected location in Luxor, and you’ll be picked up in a comfortable AC vehicle with a reliable driver. In addition, an expert Egyptologist will accompany you through your tour of Dendera and Abydos temples from Luxor.

Firstly, we’ll head to “Abydos,” an Egyptian town on the Nile River, about 170 Km north of Luxor. You’ll enjoy a 3-hour car trip during which you can see the beautiful scenes of the Nile Valley and Egyptian villages, listen to interesting stories from your tour guide, relax, or have fun with our agency’s team.

The Temple of Seti I in Abydos is one of the hidden gems in Egypt, and you’ll like exploring the site with no crowds. This temple was built by King Seti I, but it was completed during his son King Ramses II's reign after Seti's death.  It was dedicated to the god Osiris, one of the main gods in ancient Egyptian religion. 

Marvel at the beautifully colored wall scenes in the inner courts of the temple, while your tour guide interprets its meanings and symbolism.

In addition, your tour guide will show the famous Abydos King List, which mentions the names of about 76 pharaohs. And finally, don’t miss seeing the mysterious symbols that appear to depict a helicopter and submarine that are still puzzling until now.

After exploring the Temple of Seti I in Abydos, you’ll relax and enjoy a delicious lunch in a local restaurant before continuing our adventure.

We’ll move to Dendera, approximately 105 km south of Abydos. It is about an hour and a half trip. 

The temple of Dendera was built during the Ptolemaic period in Egypt and was dedicated to the goddess Hathor, the goddess of love, motherhood, and music in ancient Egypt.

The most awesome feature of the temple is the ceiling of the inner court, which has been carefully decorated with intricate astronomical motifs that represent the ancient Egyptian zodiac.

At the end of our day tour, we’ll drive back to Luxor and drop you off safely at your hotel.
