Temple of Kom Ombo
2 hours
We will pick you up from your hotel or Nile cruise in Aswan and here your tour starts with the Kom Ombo and Edfu temple. We will transfer you in a modern a/c vehicle to Kom-Ombo where you will visit the double temple of both Sobek, the crocodile god, and Horus the falcon god, located on the river bank. The Kom Ombo temple was built during the Ptolemaic dynasty, with additions during the Roman period. While much of the temple has been destroyed by the Nile flood, the ruins are spectacular, and some 300 crocodile mummies have been discovered in the vicinity and are displayed inside the temple’s crocodile museum.
