Begin your adventure with a morning pickup from your Luxor accommodation. Relax in a private, air-conditioned vehicle as you travel along the Nile Valley toward the ancient city of Edfu.
Your first stop is the Temple of Horus, one of the most beautifully preserved temples in all of Egypt. Walk through its towering gateways, shadowed courtyards, and exquisite hieroglyphic corridors as your Egyptologist guide brings the stories of Horus, Set, and the rituals of the Ptolemaic era vividly to life. Its symmetry, scale, and purity of design make it a masterpiece of ancient architecture.
Continue your journey to Kom Ombo, home to one of Egypt’s most unusual temples. Built for two gods side by side, Sobek the crocodile god and Haroeris (Horus the Elder), the entire layout is perfectly duplicated, with twin halls, twin sanctuaries, and beautifully carved twin courts. As you explore, your guide explains how this extraordinary design symbolized balance, duality, and cosmic harmony.
Return to Luxor and enjoy a delicious Egyptian meal at a local restaurant, tasting traditional flavors after a full day of history.
End your experience with a tranquil felucca ride on the Nile, gliding along the water as the breezes cool and Luxor’s skyline takes on soft evening light, the perfect ending to a remarkable day.
Finally, your driver will drop you off safely at your accommodation in Luxor.
