Hisham, the tour guide, speaks perfect English. He's willing to answer both tour related and non-related questions, and he is passionate about its work. At the end of the tour, he recommended and booked us a dinner in one of the best restaurants in Luxor. Joe will drive you easily around the most difficult streets in Egypt. We definitely recommend the tour!
Tour at Dendera Temple was a rich experience. Beautiful place, very well preserved temple. Many impressive images. Our guide Roshdy did a great job, and took care about us with safety and dedicated attention to details and explanations. Thank you. Celso / Ana
Le temple de Dendera est le plus beau temple que j’ai visité ! -Par contre le temple d’Abydos est très beau mais pour y aller c’est infernal ! La route est en très mauvais état, nous avons mis 4h pour faire 68km au départ de Louxor . Passer 8h dans le taxi c’est très fatiguant et une perte de temps. Visiter le temple de Dendera aurait suffit. -2eme soucis nous avions payer pour un guide en Français et nous ne l’avons pas eu c’est scandaleux.
Dendara a été un de mes temples préféré avec ceux d'Abou Simbel! Notre guide parlait bien français et nous as donné de très bonnes informations! Le tour était bien organisé!
Guida molto ben informata e pronto a rispondere ad ogni nostra curiosità. Tempio di dendera molto bello.
Guide très sympathique et connaisseur, il a était des plus gentil. Mais la visite des sites ne vaut pas les 150€ payé à mon sens, surtout après avoir fait la vallée des rois la veille. On reste sur sa faim.
