  • 5Gorgeous Temple!

    Day 2 in Luxor and chose Reflections Travel again for this amazing tour of Dendera Temple! Amazing and Gorgeous blue or Lapiz colors in this temple. Plus loved seeing all the colorful temples rooms and ceilings. So Happy that my guide from yesterday is the same. Definitely request Khaled Elsmaky because he showed me some amazing details and points of interests in the temple!

  • 5Amazing Temple Tour!

    This is one of the most amazing tours we have ever done! Khaled elsmaky is the best guide that taught us everything about Luxor and Dendera Temple. His English is perfect and we understood everything he told us throughout the trip. He picked us up on time in a comfortable car, bought us drinks, gave us time to see everything and pointed out all the highlights of the temple. It is also the most beautiful and complete temple we saw in Egypt! An absolute must see! This tour was 5 stars in every way!

  • 5A must see temple

    One of the best temples in the area, as it is covered and has more color intact than others. Just over an hour to get there . Knowledgeable guide.

  • 5Great guide

    Nelly was my tour guide and she was great. The tour is pretty quick because it's only one stop so if you schedule this in the morning you can be back in Luxor by lunch. The car was nice and clean and the driver drove safely.

  • 5Our trip to Dandera...

    Our trip to Dandera Temple was unforgettable largely thanks to our guide Khaled Elsmany. Not only he knew the history inside and out, but he also made the entire experience stress free. His warm personality and sense of humor made our trip a total joy.

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.

Top-ranked sights in Luxor: Valley of the Kings, Temple of Hatshepsut (at Deir el-Bahari), Colossi of Memnon.
