We had a wonderful time visiting the Dendera temple. The excursion was extremely well organized by the agency Eyes of Egypt: we had a warm and personal contact with the agent Mr Galal, who was very attentive to our needs. Fast and efficient. The private transfer was perfect and the french-spoken guide Hamdy was so passionate that we kearned everything about the temple! We highly recommend the agency Eyes of Egypt.

Todo muy bien desde la comunicación por whatsapp, la recogida en la puerta del hotel, el conductor muy bien, el trayecto de la duración estimada y sin incidencias ni atrasos. Nos esperó el tiempo que quisimos así que pudimos disfrutar del templo sin prisas. La empresa muy atenta antes, durante y tras el viaje.

I hired this company last minute for a ride to Dendera, they were very attentive to our requests, they offered us a guide but we just wanted a driver to go to the temple and back and that's what we had, the driver (Ahmed) was on time, was polite and waited patiently for us at Dendera perhaps we took too much time there (it is such an impressive place to see). I don't know other seasons, but going to this place in january was a great way to get out of the way of the cruises and the crowds at Luxor, I would recommend a lot to go to Dendera using this company. If I'm ever back here I would consid
