And accompany you to visit the memorial temple of king Seti I at Abydos, which was built by Seti I and his son Ramses II for the God Osiris of the afterlife and resurrection. Abydos Temple is one of the most impressive religious structures in Egypt. The fine art reliefs incorporate the Abydos Kings list (showing the cartouche contains the names of the pharaohs of Egypt from the first dynasty to the 19th dynasty), There are seven chapels of Horus, Isis, Osiris, Amon Re, Ptah, Seti I, and Re-Horakhty. At the back of the temple, discover the enigmatic structure known as the Osireion, thought to be the tomb of the god Osiris. After finishing, enjoy free time to explore the temple at leisure

    2 hours

  • Dendera Temple Complex

The temple was founded by pharaoh Pepi I (2250 BC) and continued until the Greco-Roman time The ceiling of the Dendera Temple has recently been cleaned, in a careful way that removed hundreds of years of black soot, without harming the ancient paint underneath. As a result the spectacular ceiling painting has been exposed in the main hall of Hathor temple, and some of the most vibrant and colourful paintings dating from antiquity are now visible Discover the widely known Dendera zodiac relief, the crypts which was for keeping cult equipment, archives and magical emblems for the temple's protection. On the rear outside wall of the temple, the scenes showing the massive figure of Cleopatra VII and her son by Julius Caesar, Caesarion. Then enjoy free time to explore the temple at leisure After finished, transfer back to your Luxor hotel / Nile Cruise.

The One to Go on!

Published on Oct, 2024

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.

Very nice trip

Published on Mar, 2024

Hesham and hamada are very professional. Nice car. Speak very good english and knowledgable. Would definitely recommend.

Fantastic temples

Published on Mar, 2024

Thoroughly enjoyed both temples. The colours are amazing in Hathor’s Temple and Temple of Seti. Well worth taking the time to go and visit as well as experiencing Egyptian way of life in drive up to Abydos. Guide was very good and driver took lots of care over numerous speed bumps.

Fascinating tour

Published on Feb, 2024

My wife and I took a guided tour of Abydos and Dendera Temples with Nile Holiday from Luxor during a 17-day holiday in Egypt. Our guide, Walid, arrived on time and we were pleased by the modern, clean, comfortable car. Muhammed was a safe driver. Walid spoke good English and was a fountain of knowledge, as well as being a qualified reader of Egyptian hieroglyphics. It is a long way to Abydos but the drive was quite interesting, as we saw a lot of the local scenery and local population. Abydos is quite unique and is one of Walid’s favourite Egyptian temples. Although it was about 22 years since our last visit, this was a wonderful refresher and there were a lot of improvements to the site since our last visit. We then headed to Dendera which we had also visited before. Once again, there have been significant improvements to the site, notably cleaning of the ceiling in the first hypostyle hall, which has amazing colours. Other ceilings are due for similar treatment. Although this was a long day, we really enjoyed it and found it very interesting. Highly recommended.

Long but very worthwhile trip with an excellent guide and driver

Published on Dec, 2023

Excellent trip to see these two lesser visited sites. Mahmoud was an extremely knowledgeable guide, doing a particularly good job of explaining the meaning of the hieroglyphs at both sites. And Mahmoud the driver did a fine job of cutting down the long journey time - even negotiating with the police to prevent a long detour. Highly recommended.
