Activity itinerary

Temple of Kom Ombo

  • 1h
  • Admission ticket included
Your Nile Holiday tour guide will pick you up from your hotel in Aswan and take you on a journey to the remarkable Kom Ombo Temple, dramatically set on high ground overlooking the Nile River. Unlike most ancient Egyptian temples, Kom Ombo is uniquely dedicated to two deities: the crocodile god Sobek and the falcon god Haroeris (Horus the Elder). The temple is distinguished by its rare dual design, featuring perfect symmetry along its main axis, reflecting its dual dedication. Construction of the existing structure began during the reign of Ptolemy VI Philometor (180–145 BC) and was later expanded by subsequent rulers, most notably Ptolemy XIII (47–44 BC), who added the inner and outer hypostyle halls. In ancient times, crocodiles once inhabited the riverbanks surrounding the temple. Today, visitors can explore the nearby Crocodile Museum, which displays a selection of the approximately 300 mummified crocodiles discovered at the site.

Temple of Horus

  • 1h 30m
  • Admission ticket included
Continue your journey to the Temple of Horus in Edfu, widely regarded as the best-preserved cult temple in Egypt. Dedicated to Horus, the falcon-headed god, the temple is deeply rooted in ancient Egyptian mythology, where Horus avenged the murder of his father, Osiris, by defeating Seth. The present structure dates back to the Ptolemaic period (332–30 BC) and is remarkable as one of the few temples in Egypt that was fully completed in antiquity, offering an exceptional insight into classical temple design and religious life. After completing your visit, you will be comfortably transferred back to your hotel in Luxor or Aswan, according to your travel itinerary.
