Tour Overview
Escape the crowds and uncover two of Egypt’s best-preserved temples on this full-day private tour from Luxor. With Royal, you’ll travel north to Abydos and Dendera, where colorfully painted walls, mythical carvings, and deep spiritual history await.
Start your journey with a comfortable drive to Abydos, once believed to be the burial place of Osiris, god of the underworld. Here, you’ll explore the Temple of Seti I, completed by Ramses II, and admire some of the most vivid and detailed reliefs in all of ancient Egypt. The artwork, symmetry, and spiritual symbolism make this temple a hidden gem for history lovers.
Next, head to Dendera to visit the Temple of Hathor, goddess of love, beauty, and joy. Known for its astronomical ceiling, massive columns, and well-preserved carvings, this temple offers a unique glimpse into Greco-Roman influence in Upper Egypt. You’ll see full-color scenes still intact after thousands of years—a rare experience even in Egypt.
After a day of exploration, return comfortably to your hotel in Luxor.
