Kom Ombo and Edfu Temples Private Day Trip from Aswan with Lunch

Embark on an enriching private day trip from Aswan to explore the remarkable Nile-side temples of Kom Ombo and Edfu. Accompanied by an experienced Egyptologist guide, journey north to the fascinating Kom Ombo Temple, a site dedicated to the worship of the crocodile god Sobek and the falcon-headed god Horus. Marvel at the intricate stone columns, forecourt, and sanctuaries, while delving into the temple’s rich historical significance.

Afterward, savor an included boxed lunch as you continue your journey to Edfu, home to the impressive cult temple dedicated to the deity Horus. Explore the sprawling complex, featuring a grand pylon, expansive court, and various chambers, as your knowledgeable guide reveals the hidden stories and secrets woven into its ancient walls.

Conclude your day of discovery with a return trip to Aswan, or opt for an optional hotel drop-off in Luxor, allowing you to further immerse yourself in the wonders of ancient Egypt.

At 7:00 a.m., your tour guide will pick you up from your hotel in Aswan for an enriching day tour to the Temple of Kom Ombo, situated on elevated grounds with a stunning view of the Nile. What sets this temple apart is its dual entrance, each dedicated to a different deity: “Haroeris” with his falcon head and “Sobek” with his crocodile head. The Temple of Kom Ombo pays homage to both of these ancient Egyptian gods: the crocodile-headed Sobek, the god of fertility and creator of the world, and Haroeris, the falcon-headed Horus.

Following this, you will be transferred to Edfu by road to visit the awe-inspiring Temple of Horus, widely regarded as the best-preserved cult temple in Egypt. According to Egyptian mythology, this temple is where the falcon-headed god Horus sought vengeance for the murder of his father Osiris by slaying Seth. Concluding the tour, you will be transferred to your hotel in either Aswan or Luxor, as per your request.
