Tour Description

Our qualified Egyptologist Guide from Valley the Kings will pick you up from your hotel in Aswan at 8:00 am by A/C vehicle for a private day tour to the beautiful Temples of Kom Ombo and Edfu. Our first visit will be to Kom Ombo Temple, which overlooks the Nile. This temple is unique as it features a double entrance, dedicated to two gods: Sobek, the crocodile god, and Horus, the falcon-headed god.
