Wake up at sunrise and enjoy breakfast onboard, then meet your Egyptologist guide to escort you to the impressive Temple of Horus at Edfu. Famed as Egypt's best-preserved temple, it was buried under desert sands for over 2,000 years since the Romans departed — its form perfectly intact.
After your Edfu Temple tour, return onboard the cruise ship to continue your Egypt Nile Cruise tour. The ship will sail toward Kom Ombo, where you’ll disembark again for a visit to the unique Kom Ombo Temple — an extraordinary structure dedicated to two gods. One side honors Sobek, the crocodile god, while the other side is dedicated to Horus, the falcon-headed god. The temple’s symmetrical design reflects this duality, with both sides being exact mirrors of one another.
After visiting this great site, back to the cruise and resume sailing to Aswan, overnight on board — peacefully floating on the Nile while your Classic Egypt Tour continues.
