Review for TMX Travel - Excursion from Hurghada to Dendera and Abydos - When you take your mother and sister on a trip from Hurghada to Dendera and Abydos, a world of wonders opens up. Our experience with TMX travel was simply outstanding. Our guide Mo was a real gem. From the moment he welcomed us to Hurghada, we felt his passion for Egyptian history. With impressive knowledge, he guided us through the fascinating temples of Dendera and Abydos and conveyed the deeper meaning of these historical sites. The breathtaking frescoes and majestic architecture left us frozen in awe. Mo told us exciting stories and anecdotes that brought the places to life. The whole organization of the excursion was spotless, and we felt in good hands at all times. This experience has strengthened our family ties and will be remembered forever. I can highly recommend TMX travel and Mo!

Review for TMX Travel - Excursion from Hurghada to Dendera and Abydos - Me, my mom and my brother took TMX travel for a trip from Hurghada to Dendera and Abydos. The day started early, but it was worth every minute. Our guide Mo was excellent. He met us in Hurghada and was perfect for this profession. Mo inspired us with his extensive knowledge of the history and culture of Egypt. He explained the main sights with a lot of passion and told us interesting anecdotes time and again. Dendera and Abydos are breathtaking, and thanks to Mo we could really appreciate the beauty and importance of these places. The organization of the excursion was smooth, and we felt well looked after throughout the tour. It was an unforgettable experience that we enjoyed very much as a family. I can highly recommend TMX Reisen and Mo as a guide!

Magic moments: Our family trips in Egypt - When we think back to our snorkeling trip on the pirate ship yacht, the smile of the children will immediately come to mind. My husband, the children and I had a lot of fun discovering the underwater world. Our guide, Mostafa, was extremely competent and friendly, which made the day even more enjoyable. The children loved the colorful fish and the clear water. When we think about our trip to the temples of Dendera and Abydos, we realize how impressive this trip was. With our guide Ahmed from TMX Reisen we experienced the history of Egypt first hand. He explained to us the fascinating details of the temple complexes and their significance. The day was not only informative but also very nice, and we enjoyed the impressive sights to the fullest. A big thank you to everyone who made this unforgettable day possible!

Fantastic - Me and my friends from Germany were lucky enough to spend our holiday in Hurghada with tmxreisen. Our trips to Dendera and Abydos in one day as well as Cairo were just fantastic! Our guidebook patron was a real stroke of luck. He not only spoke excellent German but also English, which was especially important DA our friend and her children did not understand German. Schoene made sure all the information was understandable to everyone, and explained everything very clearly. Visits to the impressive temples in Dendera and Abydos were unforgettable. Schoene shared many interesting stories and facts that enriched our experiences. In Cairo we visited the pyramids and the Egyptian Museum, where patrons impressed us once again with his knowledge. ES was a perfect balance between education and fun. Overall, the trips with tmxreisen were a highlight of our holiday. We can highly recommend these tours!

Review of our day trip to Dandara and Abydose - Our excursion from Hurghada to Dendera and Abydos was excellently organized. Our guide Mo was very competent and made the tour exciting. We especially enjoyed the delicious food in Sohag, in a beautiful fish restaurant. Although the journey was long, we quickly forgot the fatigue when we saw the impressive colors and reliefs of the temples. It was fascinating to learn that the ancient Egyptians made a pilgrimage to Abydos, and it was a real experience to visit these historic sites. The videos of TMX travel on YouTube motivated us to make this trip, and we are very pleased with our decision. We definitely recommend TMX travel!

Review our trip with tmxreisen - The trip to the temples of Abydos and Dendera from Hurghada with tmxreisen was a fascinating experience! The temple complex of Abydos is famous for its vivid colors, which have been surprisingly well preserved over millennia. The walls are covered with detailed hieroglyphics and colorful depictions depicting scenes from the lives of the pharaohs and gods. These colors bring the stories to life and give a deep insight into the religious and cultural significance of the site. Our guide Mahmoud was extremely nice and informative. With his passion for Egyptian history, he led us through the temples and explained the symbolism of the murals. He patiently answered all our questions and made the visit even more interesting. Another highlight was the visit to the temple of Dendera, where we could admire the famous calendar on the ceiling. The colours of the ceiling paintings are also excellently preserved and show the different months and festivals of the Egyptian calendar. The attention to detail and the vibrant colors make this place a true work of art. Overall, visiting the temples of Abydos and Dendera was an unforgettable experience. The combination of impressive art and Mahmoud’s expert guidance made this trip an absolute highlight of our stay in Egypt!
