Half Day: Kom Ombo

• Leave the hotel by private car, reaching Kom Ombo after one hour drive on the Upper Egypt Corniche & across the countryside.
• Visit the Temple of Kom Ombo which stands on high grounds overlooking the Nile. It differs from other temples by its double entrance, each of which is dedicated to a divinity: "Haroeris" with his falcon head & "Sobek" with his crocodile head.
• Although Kom Ombo is a small village, its importance lies in its huge sugarcane plantations
