    Pick up time from Hurghada hotel at 06:00 am, Drive 3 hours to visit the temple of the Goddes Hathor, The Goddes of love, Music Arrive at Dendera at 09: 00, You will be accompanied by Egyptologist tour guide ,He will explain the history of the temple    Dendera temple The Temple of Hathor was largely constructed during the Late Ptolemaic period, specifically during the reign of Ptolemy XII and Cleopatra VII. Later additions were made during the Roman period. Although built by a dynasty of rulers who were not native Egyptians themselves, the design of this temple has been found to be in accordance to that of other classical Egyptian temples, with the exception of the front of the hypostyle hall, which, according to an inscription above the entrance, was constructed by the Emperor Tiberius.   Apart from these, there are also scenes in the temple complex portraying the Ptolemaic rulers. For example, carved onto the external face of one of the temple walls is a huge relief of Cleopatra VII and her son by Julius Caesar and co-ruler, Ptolemy XV (better known as Caesarion). The two Ptolemaic rulers are shown dressed in Egyptian garb, and offering sacrifices.   Hathor was also regarded as a goddess of healing, and this is evident in the presence of a sanatorium in the temple complex. Here, pilgrims would come to be cured by the goddess. Sacred water (which was made holy by having it poured onto statues inscribed with sacred texts) was used for bathing, unguents were dispensed by the priests of Hathor, and sleeping quarters were provided for those hoping that the goddess would appear in their dreams, and so aid them.   After visiting the temple.we will have lunch in Qena City then we depart to Hurghada

The Temple is definitely worth to visit. It took almost three hours of driving one way from the hotel in Soma bay, but the scenery makes the experience just beautiful, and the time on the road goes by unnoticeable. We left 5:30 in the morning and were back at 14:00. Very good option if you want to see the Temple and still spend some time near the water that day. But at the end I would prefer to have 30-60 minutes more to explore and spend some time at the Tample. But it depends on your preferences and interest in the ancient history. We were at temple around 9am, and left around 11am. The guide was very good. Thank you, Mamdouh for the talk and sharing some parts of the egiptian culture. The contact with Marsalam is easy by what’s up, and nobody is trying to sell something you do not need. We also made the trip on quads with Marsa alam, which was great. Really recommend both experiences and the company.
