Itinerary

600 min

Get picked up from your hotel in Luxor by your egyptologist tour guide at 7 AM and begin driving north of Luxor past local daily life. As you drive, admire views of quaint villages all the way to Abydos Temple, and listen closely as your expert guide tells you about interesting historical details of the great temple. Unique because of its limestone construction laid out over three levels, Abydos Temple is considered one-of-kind in many other respects. Find out why as you explore this historical treasure trove. Afterwards, drive on to Dendara Temple. Dedicated to Hathor, the goddess of motherhood, the Dendara Temple dates back to the late Ptolemaic Period and is located on holy Egyptian ground. The site is renowned for its relics of religious structures built during the reign of the Old Kingdom of Pharaoh Pepi the First. Enjoy taking stunning photos at these mesmerizing historical locations. When the adventure is over, get dropped off back at your hotel in Luxor.
