About
Dendera is the site of the temple of Goddess Hathor, Goddess of love, music, joy, motherhood, Lady of turquoise and Lady of the sycamore tree.The whole complex covers some 40,000 square meters and is surrounded by a hefty mudbrick enclosed wall. Dendera was inhabited in prehistory, a useful oasis on the banks of the Nile. It seems that pharaoh Pepi I (ca. 2250 BC) built on this site and evidence exists of a temple in the Eighteenth Dynasty (ca 1500 BC). The earliest extant building in the compound today is the mammisi raised by Nectanebo II – last of the native pharaohs (360–343 BC). The features in the complex include:
Hathor temple (the main temple)
Temple of the birth of Isis
Sacred Lake
Sanatorium
Mammisi of Nectanebo II
Christian Basilica
Roman Mammisi
a Barque shrine
Gateways of Domitian and Trajan
the Roman Kiosk

About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- ftavar2124960 contributionsA very successful last minute bookingOur classification is based on a last minute booking which was very successful. We arrived at this company through our Hotel in Giza and thanks to this contact we were able to book a Nile cruise for 4 nights. Between Luxor and Aswan we visited several temples and tombs, we were accompanied by friendly and helpful guides. As it was a last minute appointment, the guided tours were gradually scheduled and the company was constantly in contact with us to update all the information. Amr (the company manager) met us at Luxor airport after a delayed flight and left us completely relaxed regarding the entire schedule and experience on the cruise and guided tours. It is certainly a service experience to recommend. We think that by booking in advance it will be possible to obtain more detailed information so that we can better plan the length of stay in each location, before and after the cruise. After this experience we would have easily changed our 15-day trip to be as follows: 3 nights in Giza (night of arrival, visit to the pyramids of Giza and Saqqara + Grand Egyptian Museum), 2 nights in Cairo (touring the city on foot, get lost in the Khan El Khalili Market, visit the most important Museums and gastronomy), 2 nights in Luxor, 3 nights on the cruise (Luxor to Aswan with visit to Abu Simbel included), 3 nights in Aswan (to visit the temples and the small islands of the Nile and other attractions). 4 nights in Sharm El Sheik and ending with a night in Cairo before returning home. We also appreciated the professionalism, speed and safety of all the drivers who accompanied us.Written January 3, 2025

Her enthusiasm and knowledge of the sites (and other Egyptian history) made our excursion to these temples fascinating! My 2 teenage kids also commented how wonderful she was and how she kept us all engaged. We would highly recommend any tour be with Miriam. She's wonderful!Written December 23, 2024

- Road155338039160 contributionsSafe, comfortable and efficient transportation services.We had an amazing time in southern Egypt in September 2023 by contracting Amar's services. We required a transportation to Abu Simbel from Aswan and Amar provided a comfortable van service very early in the morning that arrived fast to Abu Simbel. We came back to Aswan to have some food and rest. We were so satisfied with Amar's service and asked another transportation to Kom Ombo, which took us back to our hotel in Aswan and made it easy for us to enjoy the rest of the evening. The service was excelent, so we decided to ask another transportation to Luxor for the next day. We had a safe and confortable trip, we saved a lot of time by traveling this way from Aswan to Luxor. Finally, in Luxor we contracted a transportation to the Valley of the Kings and Hatshepsut Temple with a guide in English. We highly recommend Amar's services. Amar will provide you safe, comfortable and efficient transportation if you are planning to visit touristic sites in southern Egypt. شكرا يا حبيبي Perla and Umar from MexicoWritten May 17, 2024

- ionutd7540 contributionsNice experienceWe stayed at El Karma resort for about 2 weeks and used "Sun International" for all activities and visits during this entire period. "Sun International" proved that it is a big and important company, every time we went with them (example: Cairo, Luxor, Hurganda City Tour, Submarine or Orange Bay Island )everything was well organized, safe and the guides were extraordinarily well trained. For us, the main person we talked to throughout the vacation was MO ALKADY, an employee of Sun International,a very well-prepared professionally , an extraordinary man who was available to answer any question and who really helped throughout the stay in El Karma. I recommend with all confidence to use this company "Sun International" and if you have the opportunity to talk with Mr. MO ALKADY, well..don't hesitate, he will definitely solve whatever you need. Thanks again MO ALKADY!!!Written June 1, 2023
