Amazing day at Dendera Temple - If you're in Luxor, the Dendera Temple should be a must in your bucket list! It was our last day in Egypt and honestly, it couldn't have been better than this! Our tour guide Majed made everything he could to make us feel happy and comfortable during the visiting. His explanation was so interesting (he developed one of his studies in archeology in that temple) and I couldn't stop making questions during the tour. Also, the driver was good and the trip both ways was smooth. In the end, we had a really peaceful felluca ride (there were only me and my husband, no more turists). The tour operator made sure was everything okay since the moment I booked the tour with them. Rawan was always available and helpful. Thank you a lot, hope to see you next time in Egypt🤞🏽

One of the best tours to do in Luxor - It was an amazing experience. The Dendara temple is just stunning. A complete MUST when coming to visit Luxor. I would like to specially recommend Aladdin as a guide. He is very knowledgeable, friendly and made us feel very comfortable the whole trip. We learnt so so much and we loved every second.

Good tour of Seti I... - Good tour of Seti I Temple and Osyrion. Squeezing through a tiny hole to see the hidden chambers of the Dendera Temple was a high point!

Dendera Tour brilliant. Lucky to have Ahmed Bahaa as our guide - The Dendera Temple tour was excellent. We had Ahmed Bahaa as our guide. Ahmed, a qualified Egyptologist gave us the best tour in Egypt. Ahmed was highly knowledgable and he explained all the details excellently which made it very easy to absorb. Excellent tour. Highly recommended!

Hathor’s Temple tour - Thanks to Nice Tours for this amazing experience. Visiting the Hathor’s Temple in Dendara was a real pleasure.
Suzanne arranged everything for us and coordinated the activities. We got nice goodies as a present from the agency.
Our guide Ahmed Yossry explained us everything about the history and the architecture of the site, as well as the religious and cultural aspects related to it.
He took us inside and all around the temple, showing us the most interesting details hidden among the different carvings and inscriptions.
A special mention to our driver too who drove us safely to our destination and back. The car was very clean and confortable.
