  • Dendera Temple Complex - Embark on a journey to the renowned Dandara Temple, dedicated to the celebrated deity Hathor, who is widely revered as the goddess of Love, Joy, and beauty. This well-preserved temple dates back to the Roman era, yet it honors an Egyptian goddess and features walls adorned with authentic Egyptian imagery from the Pharaonic period.

Discover the splendor of Egypt’s ancient history.

At the start of the day, our amiable tour guide will greet you at your Luxor lodging’s reception and commence your exclusive excursion in a climate-controlled private vehicle to the Abydos temple.

Situated 140 km from Luxor, the temple stands in remarkable condition.

Brought the temples to life - I used EMO Tours for this package. Ahmed Kassem was my tour guide. He was awesome! He brought the temples to life by explaining their history, giving me personalized attention and even taking my cheesy pictures. He went above and beyond to give me the best experience possible. On my next trip to Egypt I am specifically requesting him.

Day Trip to Dandara - Khaled was our tour guide at Luxor and he did such a good job that we asked him be our guide for Dandara. The temple was very colorful and Khaled kept us both entertained and provided us with a great deal of knowledge about the history of Egypt and the temple. This temple is in very good condition I really recommend seeing it if possible. Also it was nice to know that you are travelling with a good driver and a trusted guide when on a family vacation.
