Excursion d'une journée de Louxor aux temples d'Abydos et Dendérah (privée)

Our tour started out okay with a visit to Dendera Temple, but it was clear early on that our guide Mena and our driver did not want to continue the tour as scheduled to Abydos following the visit to Dendera. Mena insisted that it was not worth the drive to see Abydos due to the condition of the temple site, which seemed odd given the tour is clearly advertised as a visit to Dendera and Abydos. Despite offering us alternative temples to visit in the Luxor area for some reason, we insisted on visiting Abydos given the price and description of the tour that we had already paid for. After leaving

Had a really amazing day with Mena who took us to Dendara for the day. Dendara is about a 90 minute drive from Luxor and totally worth it. No crowds , serene, pristine with a fabulous temple and loads to see. Mena was a great guide, fun to be with , extremely knowledgeable and we would highly recommend him!

Te whole day was really smooth. Got picked up on time. The driver was really nice and the drive was smooth.

First, the reason why I'm writing such a horrible review is because of what happened on the drive back from the tour that was an very unsafe situation. Before I get to that I want to provide some feedback. 1.) I think they should provide tourists with toilet paper, a lot of people come in blind to Egypt and to the sights and they aren't aware of the lack of toilet paper at temples etc. I had gotten very sick on this tour and we didn't have enough toilet paper packed, and our tour guide's feedback was dismissive with a comment of "why don't you have more of your own toilet paper" when we asked

Archeologist with PhD and a very experienced driver! What else you can imagine to see marvelous blue colors of Dandera and fine carvings of Abydos!
