Alani –
Nahla is an excellent guide. She has the enthusiasm to make the rich history of Dendera come alive. Dendera maybe a little drive from Luxor, but I highly recommend it!! It’s beautiful and not crowded, truly one of the best. We were able to get a feel of the small local villages as well, which we very much enjoyed. If we are in Luxor again I could call Nahla and hope she would be available. Julie
