A Journey Through Egypt’s Sacred Temples
Morning – Departure from Luxor
Your Tripora Tours guide will meet you at your hotel in Luxor for a scenic drive through the Nile Valley to the temple town of Edfu — approximately 1.5 hours away.
Temple of Horus at Edfu
Begin your exploration at the Temple of Horus, one of the most complete ancient Egyptian temples still standing. Built during the Ptolemaic era (237–57 BC), this temple features:
-
Towering columns and intricate carvings
-
Impressive statues of Horus, the falcon god and protector of kings
-
Walls covered in hieroglyphs depicting ancient rituals and royal legends
Your guide will explain the significance of Horus in Egyptian mythology and highlight the temple’s key features.
Temple of Kom Ombo
Next, continue south along the Nile to the Temple of Kom Ombo, dramatically perched on a high ridge overlooking the river. This rare double temple is split in two:
-
One side devoted to Sobek, the crocodile god of fertility and rebirth
-
The other to Horus the Elder, a solar deity of protection and healing
Marvel at the symmetrical design, detailed reliefs, and ancient surgical tools displayed in the temple’s small Crocodile Museum.
