O que você vai fazer

You will be met and assisted at your hotel in Luxor and transferred to Edfu. Followed by your arrival in Edfu, you can visit the majestic Temple of Edfu, which is dedicated to Horus. The temple is considered by most as the best-preserved cult temple in Egypt. According to the Egyptian myths, it was the place where the falcon-headed God Horus revenged the murder of his father Osiris by killing Seth.

You will continue your tour to Kom Ombo, where you will be able to witness the greatness of the Temple of Kom Ombo. It differs from other temples because of its double-entrance, as each one is dedicated to a certain ancient Egyptian God: “Haroeris” with his falcon head, and “Sobek” with his crocodile head. The Temple of Kom Ombo was built in honor of two deities: the crocodile-headed Sobek, God of Fertility and creator of the world, and Haroeris or the ancient falcon-headed Horus. Kom Ombo’s importance also lies on its huge sugar-cane fields, as it was originally an agricultural town, producing mostly irrigated sugar cane and corn.

You will continue your tour to Aswan to enjoy the amazing city. You will visit the High Dam, an engineering miracle built in 1960 with the aim of protecting Egypt from annual floods from the Nile. Proceed to visit the unfinished Obelisk, which shows the techniques used by the ancient Egyptians to cut obelisks. Most probably this obelisk belonged to Queen Hatshepsut, one of the rulers of the 18th Dynasty and the royal wife of king Tuthmosis II. This queen was the owner of her temple in the Eastern Bank of Luxor. Also, there is a story that says that it belonged to Queen Nefertiti. You will move on to visit the majestic Philae Temple, which was built in honour of the Goddess Isis, the chief deity of the island.

Finally, you will be transferred back to your hotel in Luxor.
