The Abydos-Dendera-Luxor tour from Hurghada is an exciting and unique way to explore the ancient sites of Egypt. This two-day tour takes you on a journey through some of the most significant temples and monuments of the ancient world, allowing you to immerse yourself in the rich history and culture of Egypt.
The tour starts early in the morning with a pick-up from your hotel in Hurghada. You will be driven to Abydos, which is about a three-hour drive from Hurghada. Abydos is one of the oldest cities of ancient Egypt and was once a pilgrimage center for the god Osiris. Here, you will visit the Temple of Seti I, one of the most impressive temples in Egypt. The temple is dedicated to the god Osiris and features intricate carvings and hieroglyphs that tell the story of ancient Egyptian mythology. After visiting the Temple of Seti I, you will have lunch at a local restaurant before continuing your journey to Dendera. Dendera is home to one of the best-preserved temples in Egypt, the Temple of Hathor. This temple is dedicated to the goddess of love and beauty and is renowned for its stunning reliefs and colorful ceilings. You will have plenty of time to explore the temple and take photos before heading to your hotel in Luxor.
The second day of the tour begins with an early breakfast at your hotel before heading to the West Bank of Luxor. Here, you will visit the Valley of the Kings, a burial site for the pharaohs of the New Kingdom. You will have the opportunity to visit three tombs and marvel at the intricate carvings and paintings that adorn the walls. After visiting the Valley of the Kings, you will head to the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, one of the most impressive temples in Egypt. This temple is unique in that it was built by a female pharaoh and features a series of terraces and colonnades that are carved into the cliff face. Your final stop on the tour is the Colossi of Memnon, two massive stone statues of the pharaoh Amenhotep III that have stood guard at the entrance to his mortuary temple for over 3,400 years.
