Itinerary

Your memorable Day trip private from Luxor to Edfu and Kom Ombo starts from Luxor when your Egyptologist and driver take you from your hotel, and you travel to Edfu for a unique tour of the Temple of Horus.

📍 Edfu
You will see the impressive sandstone buildings of Horus, the god of protection, at the best-preserved sacred site in Egypt. Explore the location where Horus sought retribution against Seth, the god of chaos, for killing his father, Osiris. After that, we drive for 1.5 hours to the Temple of Kom Ombo.

Ancient Egyptians constructed it in adoration of the holy deities and it had a view of the east bank of the Nile. We will also present you with the temple's architectural features and how it paid tribute to the crocodile-headed fertility god Sobek and the falcon-headed god Horus, also known as Haroeris.
