Itinerary

Tour Itinerary

Begin your unforgettable journey as your private guide from On Trip Egypt  picks you up from your hotel in Aswan in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle.

Your first stop is the remarkable Temple of Kom Ombo, located 55 km north of Aswan along the Nile. Unique in design, this temple is dedicated to two powerful gods: Sobek, the crocodile god of fertility, and Horus the Elder, the falcon-headed god of protection and kingship. Discover intricate carvings, including one of the world’s earliest medical calendars, depictions of surgical instruments, and the ancient nilometer used to measure the Nile’s flood levels. Don’t miss a visit to the Crocodile Museum, home to an astonishing collection of mummified crocodiles.

Continue your expedition northward to Edfu, 110 km from Aswan, where you'll explore the best-preserved temple in Egypt. Dedicated to Horus the Falcon, this monumental Greco-Roman structure took nearly 180 years to complete, culminating under Ptolemy XIII, father of the legendary Cleopatra. The temple honors the epic battle between Horus and his uncle Set, god of chaos. Admire the elaborate reliefs, a granite naos that once enshrined Horus’s sacred statue, and a stunning replica of his ceremonial boat used in ancient religious rituals.

After this rich dive into Egypt's mythological past, your driver will take you back to Aswan, leaving you with memories of an extraordinary day among gods and pharaohs.
