Unforgettable Tour Highlights
Your day begins with a convenient pickup from your centrally located hotel or Nile cruise in Luxor. Your private tour to Edfu and Kom Ombo will then begin, taking you along the fertile banks of the Nile.
The Temple of Kom Ombo
Your first stop is the remarkable Temple of Kom Ombo, dramatically perched on a high dune overlooking the Nile. This is the only dual temple in Egypt, uniquely dedicated to both the crocodile god Sobek and the falcon god Horus. As you explore, you will be captivated by its striking symmetrical design. Your guide will explain how the temple’s twin sanctuaries, halls, and entrances were built to honor both deities equally. You’ll have the chance to examine the ancient medical reliefs carved on the temple walls, which showcase surgical instruments, and visit the nearby Crocodile Museum. This unique dual temple experience is a key feature of our Kom Ombo holiday packages.
The Temple of Edfu
Next, you will visit the colossal Temple of Horus in Edfu. This magnificent temple is widely considered Egypt’s best-preserved ancient temple, with its towering pylons, intricate hieroglyphs, and sacred chambers still largely intact. The temple receives a generous amount of sunlight all day long, illuminating the detailed carvings and inscriptions. As you explore its various rooms, including the library and shrine, your guide will help you decipher the religious stories and myths, such as the famous Myth of the Contending of Horus and Seth. This comprehensive visit ensures you get a full appreciation for ancient Egyptian religious practices.
What Makes This Experience Special
What sets this experience apart is the depth of knowledge and the personalized attention you receive. Your expert Egyptologist guide will not only lead you through the sites but will also uncover hidden stories behind each carving and legend. You’ll gain a deeper appreciation for the architectural marvels of the Ptolemaic era, from Kom Ombo’s rare symmetry to Edfu’s grand halls.
