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 approach, you’ll 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. This unique site is a must-see part of our Kom Ombo tour package.
The Temple of Edfu
After exploring Kom Ombo, you’ll continue your drive to Edfu. Edfu is a site dominated by the large and exceptionally well-preserved Temple of Horus, the falcon-headed god. This magnificent temple gets a generous amount of sunlight all day long, illuminating the intricate carvings and hieroglyphs. As you explore its library, shrine, and many other rooms, you can pay close attention to the variety of religious inscriptions on the walls, which tell stories of ancient mythology and rituals. The excellent state of preservation of this temple makes it a major highlight of any tour.
