    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 as 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. It 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!

    Response from the operator: Liebe Gäste, vielen Dank für Ihre tolle Rückmeldung! Es ist großartig zu wissen, dass Sie Ihre Reise mit uns genossen haben. Ihr positives Feedback inspiriert uns, weiterhin unser Bestes zu geben und unvergessliche Erlebnisse zu schaffen. Wir freuen uns darauf, Sie bald wieder bei TMX Reisen willkommen zu heißen! Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Ihr TMX Reisen Team

    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!

    Response from the operator: Liebe Gäste, wir danken Ihnen vielmals für Ihre großartige Bewertung! Es freut uns sehr, dass Sie Ihre Reise mit uns genießen konnten. Ihr positives Feedback bedeutet uns viel und spornt uns an, weiterhin unser Bestes zu geben. Wir hoffen, Sie bald wieder bei TMX Reisen begrüßen zu dürfen! Herzliche Grüße, Ihr TMX Reisen Team

    Private Day Trip to Dandara Temple Abydos Temple from Hurghada: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hurghada.

    How much does Private Day Trip to Dandara Temple Abydos Temple from Hurghada cost?

    +

    Prices start at $182 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Hurghada usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Private Day Trip to Dandara Temple Abydos Temple from Hurghada take?

    +

    Plan for about 15 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Hurghada is not rushed.

    Is Private Day Trip to Dandara Temple Abydos Temple from Hurghada worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Hurghada, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Private Day Trip to Dandara Temple Abydos Temple from Hurghada?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Private Day Trip to Dandara Temple Abydos Temple from Hurghada suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 15-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Private Day Trip to Dandara Temple Abydos Temple from Hurghada?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Hurghada can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Hurghada and add a light layer if any part of the 15-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private Day Trip to Dandara Temple Abydos Temple from Hurghada start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Hurghada within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Hurghada?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Hurghada experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Hurghada Diving Adventure one Day with two Dives Boat Trip, Hurghada to Cairo: Pyramids & Museum for First-Time Visitors, Scuba Diving Full Day Boat Trip W/Lunch & Transfer from Hurghada. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Hurghada?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Hurghada?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
