Travel from Luxor to Dendara by either road in an air conditioned coach or by cruise boat along the Nile River to see the well preserved and popular location of the Temples of Hathor and Isis, and the Coptic Basilica. Your guide will show you the main features of the complex and then allow you time to explore on your own. The approach path to the Temple of Hathor is between two Roman fountains that end at the massive entry gate. Hathor was the goddess of pleasure and love and was generally shown as a cow or woman with a cow's head.

The enclosure walls are mud-brick and date back to the Roman era. Within the walls are the temple, two birth houses, a Coptic Basilica, a sanitarium, a sacred lake and the Temple of the Birth of Isis. The temple has a long history with evidence that Pepi I (Old Kingdom) rebuilt the temple, while other texts refer to reconditioning by Thutmose III, Amenhotep III and Rameses II and III (New Kingdom).
