Highlights
  • Temple of Horus - At 7:00 am, our guide will pick you up from your hotel in Aswan and drive you in a private air-conditioned vehicle to Edfu, which is about a 2-hour drive north of Aswan. Upon arrival in Edfu, you will visit the magnificent Temple of Edfu, dedicated to Horus. This temple is considered by many to be the best-preserved cult temple in Egypt. According to Egyptian mythology, this is where the falcon-headed god Horus avenged his father Osiris’s murder by killing Seth.

Lunch will be provided in a box.

  • Temple of Kom Ombo - Next, continue your tour to Kom Ombo. Upon arrival, you will be transferred to see the Temple of Kom Ombo, which stands on high ground overlooking the Nile. This temple is unique due to its double entrance, each dedicated to a different deity: Haroeris, with his falcon head, and Sobek, with his crocodile head. The Temple of Kom Ombo was built in honor of these two gods: Sobek, the crocodile-headed god of fertility and creator of the world, and Haroeris, the ancient falcon-headed Horus. Kom Ombo is also significant for its vast sugar-cane fields.

Around 4:30 pm, you will be transferred back to your hotel in Aswan.
