The Ultimate Trip To Kom Ombo and Edfu There is no better way to see the delights of the River Nile in Upper Egypt than with a private trip to Kom Ombo and Edfu from Aswan. This private day tour, available for booking through Cruise Era, takes you to two spectacular temples located close to the riverbank. Your journey begins with the huge and impressive Edfu Temple of the god Horus, followed by the unique Kom Ombo Temple, dedicated to the crocodile god Sobek. This expertly planned trip to Kom Ombo is the perfect way to explore ancient wonders in comfort and style.

Why Our Trip to Kom Ombo Stands Out

This excursion is designed for travelers who want a high-quality, comfortable, and insightful experience. Unlike large group tours, our private trip allows for a personalized itinerary and undivided attention from your expert guide. The convenience of direct hotel pickup and drop-off in a private, air-conditioned vehicle ensures a smooth and enjoyable journey. This hassle-free approach allows you to focus entirely on the ancient wonders you’ve come to see. The scenic drive along the Nile adds to the charm, making our trip to Kom Ombo the ideal choice for discerning travelers.

Your Detailed Itinerary

Your day begins with a convenient pickup from your hotel in Aswan at 7:00 AM. You’ll then begin your journey north toward Kom Ombo.

The Temple of Kom Ombo

Your first stop is the remarkable Kom Ombo Temple, located approximately 48 kilometers north of Aswan. Perched dramatically on the banks of the Nile, this is the only dual temple in Egypt, uniquely dedicated to both the crocodile god Sobek and the falcon god Horus. Your guide will explain the temple’s symmetrical design, which features two identical entrances, halls, and sanctuaries. You’ll have the chance to examine the ancient medical reliefs carved on the temple walls, which showcase surgical instruments. You can also visit the adjacent Crocodile Museum, which houses mummified crocodiles. This unique site is a must-see part of our trip to Kom Ombo.

The Temple of Edfu

After exploring Kom Ombo, you’ll continue your drive to Edfu, a journey that takes approximately one hour. You’ll arrive around 11:00 AM. Edfu is a site dominated by the large and exceptionally well-preserved temple of the hawk-god Horus. The construction of this Ptolemaic temple, which was built on the site of a much earlier temple, dates to the period between the reigns of Ptolemy III (246 B.C.). The detailed descriptions on the walls include the Myth of Contending of Horus and Seth, which was likely performed annually as a religious drama. This temple’s incredible state of preservation makes it a highlight of any tour.

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. The journey also provides ample opportunities for breathtaking photos, especially at Kom Ombo, where you can capture stunning riverside moments. This comprehensive approach makes our trip to Kom Ombo truly special.
