Thank you for your wonderful journey in Luxor. - I'm from Japan. I asked only for a driver. It takes two hours each way from Luxor, but the Dendera Temple is stunning and worth a visit. The basement and rooftops, as well as reliefs of Cleopatra, can be seen. We asked our driver, Taha Abdel Haq Abdel Karim, to continue our sightseeing tour of the West Bank in Luxor. They picked me up early at the hotel and everything went well. Thank you for your pleasant stay in Luxor!

Perfect visit to Dendera. - My time with Mohamed was perfect! He was very accomodating, considerate and communicated very well, and always went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and assist me with my needs. Also, as a solo female traveller in Egypt, I felt extremely safe with Mohamed. I can’t speak highly enough about him and would recommend his service with my eyes closed.

enjoy the temple at a leisurely pace/落ち着いてゆっくりと神殿を堪能できました - 日本人の旅行者で、ガイドなしでデンデラ神殿でしっかりと滞在して見たい方にお勧めします。
ドライバーは2時間まで滞在できると言ってくれました。日中のエジプトの日差しに体力的に1.5時間が限界かなとも思います。
デンデラ神殿の建物として非常に良い状態で残っていること、天井の装飾は他にはないものがあります。
Thank you Abdou for driving such a long distance.
If you want to enjoy the Dendera Temple at your own pace, I highly recommend this tour.
It takes 1.5 hours each way, but he made sure to take the time to explore. It was really helpful that he bought us drinks.
Needless to say, Dendera Temple was the best temple I saw during my trip to Egypt. The ceiling itself and its decorations are the only ones that have been preserved to this extent. (I went to Abu Simbel, Edfu, Philae, and Kom Ombo.)
There were some places I wish I could have stayed longer, but thanks to Abduh, I had a wonderful time.
