You will be picked up at your hotel or Nile cruise in Aswan and accompanied by your private Egyptologist guide to begin your journey to Dendera. Dendera is located about 60 kilometers north of Luxor on the west bank of the Nile River, opposite the town of Qena. The Temple of Dendera is one of the most beautiful and best-preserved temples in southern Egypt. Dedicated to Hathor, the goddess of maternity and love, the temple is renowned for its vivid wall paintings, intricately decorated ceilings, and grand entrance. Evidence suggests that the site’s sacred significance dates back to the Old and New Kingdoms, reflecting its long-standing holiness. The current temple structure, however, was built during the Greek period and expanded during the Roman era—with the birth house (Mamisi) dating back to the Late Period. Your private guide will explain the temple’s most important sections and the meanings behind its exquisite reliefs.

You will visit the archeological site of Abydos. The site is always famous for being the cult of Osiris and Isis. It is also the place for many temples and tombs. Touring the site of Abydos, visitors will have the chance to see the major attractions there such as the temple of Osiris, the temple of Seti I, and the temple of Ramses II. You will visit the main attractions in the company of your Egyptologist guide who will tell you the history of the temples and explains the walls and columns reliefs After an unforgettable day, you’ll be comfortably transferred back in your private vehicle to your hotel in Aswan, marking the end of your enriching excursion with Your Egypt Tours.
