Itinerary
-
Day 1- Luxor - Edfu - Kom Ombo - Aswan
- Check out from your hotel in Luxor after breakfast, and then your Egyptologist tour guide will pick you up. Enjoy a day tour to the Temple of Edfu, where you will visit the majestic temple dedicated to Horus which is considered by most to be the best-preserved cult temple in Egypt.
- Then, drive to Kom Ombo city and visit the Temple of Kom Ombo. Explore the Twin Temples of Kom Ombo. The temples give you insights into the falcon-headed god Horus and the crocodile god Sobek, whose tombstones embellish both sanctuary halves.
- Next, head to Aswan, have lunch at an Egyptian restaurant and reach Agilika Island, where you will visit the Temple of Philae, which was finally closed in the 6th century AD by the order of emperor Justinian. Some chambers were converted for Christian worship, and the Coptic community lived on the island until the coming of Islam.
Check-in at your hotel in Aswan & stay overnight in Aswan.
