Thanks Mohamed - Two days ago, we had a full day tour of Abydos and Dendra with Mohamed from Luxor. Our tour guide and driver were excellent. The tour guide Mohamed explained the 2 temple perfectly 👌 and gave us all possible information while we are in car on our way to temples. Mohamed shared with us some interesting stories about each temple. We enjoyed a lot our time with him. We visited many places in Egypt 🇪🇬 but this trip was unique and beautiful. It was amazing 👏;Mohamed was a very kind 😇 and caring person.
