The day tour from Luxor to Edfu and Kom Ombo was an eye-opener. Edfu Temple dedicated to the god Horus, and Kom Ombo’s twin temples give visitors an insight into ancient Egypt.
Hence a visit to Edfu and Kom Ombo starting from Luxor for just a single day occurred enlightening. The large majestic Edfu Temple dedicated mainly to Horus that is the falcon headed god was our first stop before we visited Kom Ombo’s double temples which were for Sobek and Horus. This trip was filled with a lot of knowledge.
It was historical and beautiful day trip for Edfu and Kom Ombo from Luxor. We started early in order to view Edfu temple which is still intact not forgetting Horus who am glad you saw because I knew this fact before hand. Additionally, Kom Ombo provided two places of worship both representing two different but interconnected deities Sobek (a crocodile god) and Horus (a falcon deity).
