1. An expert tour guide will pick you up from your Hotel or Cruise ship in Luxor and accompany you to visit Dendera temple complex. Discover the Mamisi (Birth house) of the goddess Isis, dates back to the Greek time and raised by Nectanebo II, the last native pharaohs (360–343 BC). Explore the temple of Hathor, one of the best preserved temples in all Egypt. The temple was founded by Pepi I (2250 BC). The ceiling of the Dendera Temple has recently been cleaned, in a careful way that removed hundreds of years of black soot, without harming the ancient paint underneath. As a result the spectacular ceiling painting has been exposed in Hathor temple, and some of the most vibrant and colorful paintings dating from antiquity are now visible. The sculptured Dendera zodiac is a widely known relief found in a late Greco-Roman temple, containing images of Taurus and the Libra. It was removed from the temple ceiling in 1820 and is now in the Louvre Museum.

About Luxor

Luxor stands on the site of ancient Thebes, with vast temples on the Nile's east bank and the royal tombs of the Valley of the Kings across the river.

On the east bank, the Karnak temple complex spreads across acres of pylons, obelisks and the forest of columns in its Great Hypostyle Hall. An avenue of sphinxes links it to Luxor Temple in the town centre, which is especially atmospheric when lit up in the evening. The Luxor Museum and the Mummification Museum sit along the riverside corniche.
