Begin your unforgettable day with On Trip Egypt as your private Egyptologist guide picks you up from your hotel in Aswan in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle.
Journey north along the Nile to Kom Ombo Temple, uniquely dedicated to two ancient gods: Sobek, the crocodile deity of fertility, and Horus the Elder, god of kingship and protection. Marvel at the temple’s symmetrical design and uncover one of the world’s earliest medical calendars, ancient surgical tools, and the Nile-measuring nilometer. A visit to the Crocodile Museum reveals a fascinating collection of mummified crocodiles and relics of the sacred animal cult.
Your expedition continues to Edfu, home to Egypt’s most perfectly preserved temple, dedicated to Horus the Falcon. Built over nearly 180 years during the Ptolemaic era, this grand sanctuary celebrates Horus’s mythical victory over Set, god of chaos. Stroll beneath soaring columns, admire the detailed reliefs of divine rituals, and discover the sacred naos that once enshrined Horus’s statue, alongside a replica of his ceremonial solar boat.
After soaking in the grandeur and legend of these ancient masterpieces, you’ll return to Aswan or to Luxor according to your program , with a heart full of stories and timeless impressions.
