We arrange daily guided tours to Kom Ombo Temple and Edfu Temple (you can choose whether to continue to Luxor or return to Aswan). Your guide will meet you at your hotel to join you on your tour. First, you will visit the temple of Kom Ombo, located 45 km north of Aswan. The temple dates back to the Greco-Roman period.
