-
Luxor - At 6:00 am, you’ll be picked up from your hotel or Nile cruise in Luxor by our licensed tour guide. You’ll then be driven in a private A/C vehicle to Edfu City to visit the Temple of Horus. This ancient Egyptian temple, located on the west bank of the Nile in Edfu, is about an hour south of Luxor. Known in Greco-Roman times as Apollonopolis Magna, after the chief god Horus-Apollo, it is one of the best-preserved temples in Egypt. Dedicated to the falcon god Horus, the temple was built during the Ptolemaic period between 237 and 57 BCE. The inscriptions on its walls provide valuable insights into the language, myth, and religion of the Greco-Roman period in ancient Egypt. After your visit to Edfu, you’ll continue to Kom Ombo.
-
Kom Ombo - Drive to Kom Ombo City to visit the Temple of Kom Ombo, an unusual double temple built during the Ptolemaic dynasty with later additions from the Roman period. The temple’s unique ‘double’ design meant that there were courts, halls, sanctuaries, and rooms duplicated for two sets of gods. The southern half of the temple was dedicated to the crocodile god Sobek, the god of fertility and creator of the world, along with Hathor and Khonsu. Afterward, you’ll continue your drive towards Aswan. Upon arrival in Aswan, you’ll be transferred to a local restaurant for an included lunch. After lunch, you’ll visit Philae Temple, located on an island in Lake Nasser. Formerly situated in the First Cataract of the Nile River, it was the site of an ancient Egyptian temple complex in southern Egypt. Your day tour will conclude with a visit to the High Dam, constructed in 1961 by President Gamal Abdel Nasser.
