- Edfu Temple - Guests will be picked up from their hotel in Luxor and transported in a private air-conditioned vehicle to Edfu, approximately a 50-minute drive south of Luxor. Upon arrival in Edfu, visitors can explore the magnificent Temple of Edfu, one of the most impressive and well-preserved ancient Egyptian temples, dedicated to the god Horus. Located on the western bank of the Nile, its construction began under Ptolemy III (246–221 BC) in 237 BC and was completed during the reign of Ptolemy XII (80–51 BC) in 57 BC, taking 180 years to finish.
- Kom Ombo - After a 45-minute drive from Edfu, guests will arrive in Kom Ombo to visit the Kom Ombo Temple. The name derives from the Arabic word ‘kum’ meaning ‘mound’ and ‘Ombo’, which traces back to the ancient Egyptian Nubt, interpreted as ‘the golden city.’ The temple is dedicated to two deities: Sobek, the crocodile god, and Har wer (Horus the Elder), the falcon god. Although an earlier temple existed here during the New Kingdom (c. 1550–1069 BC), the current structure was built in the Graeco-Roman Period (332 BC–395 AD), with the earliest royal name being Ptolemy VI Philometor (180–145 BC). Most of the temple’s decoration was completed by Ptolemy XII Neos Dionysos (80–51 BC).
Finally, guests will be transferred back to their hotel in Luxor.
