Private Tour to Edfu and Kom Ombo Temples from Luxor | Points of Interest & Landmarks
Visit two remarkable ancient sites with our private tour from Luxor. You’ll travel along the Nile River valley to the Temple of Horus, one of the best preserved temples in the whole of Egypt. Secondly, you will visit Kom Ombo, a wonderful double temple dedicated to Sobek “The Crocodile God” and Horus, the falcon-headed god.
Edfu temple was dedicated to Horus, the falcon headed god. It is the second-largest temple in the country. It was built by the Greco-Romans, but it confirms exactly to the principles of ancient Egyptian architecture. The site was uncovered from its sand burial in the 1860s by a French archaeologist.
After that, you will head to the Temple of Kom Ombo. The main difference from other temples is that it contains double entrance and texts on the walls of the temple referred to Coptic liturgies on this period. The name of this astonishing city, which means “The Hill of the Gold”, refers to the great importance of this city for the Ancient Egyptians from the economical aspect.
Once you finish your private visit to both sites, and after a day of pure history and discovery, you will be driven back to your accommodation or desired place in Luxor
