Day 1 Journey Through Ancient Egypt: Abydos and Dendera Tour

Early morning departure from the hotel. First, we will visit Abydos, which was founded more than 5000 years ago. As we continue, you will be enchanted by the temples of SETI and RAMSES II, which were founded for the most important Egyptian trio ISIS, OSIRIS, and HORUS. The temples are very famous and contain great secrets. We will see a helicopter, a tank, and a submarine engraved on the walls, as well as the original, beautifully colored and colossal columns. The walls depict the only Abydos royal list and also the most famous Egyptian legend, which is about the goddess Isis with her husband Osiris.

After the morning program, there will be lunch in a restaurant. After lunch, we will visit Dendera, where we will see the temple of the goddess Hathor. The temple has beautiful colors and decorated columns and walls that are more than 2000 years old. We will not miss the ancient horoscopes and calendar, which are among the oldest in the world. We will also see one of the most important corridors of Serdab, where a lamp is engraved in the wall using the oldest technique. Then we will go to Luxor, accommodation in a 4 hotel* with full board, dinner, and a free program with the possibility of an optional trip to the light show in Karnak.
