From Cairo, travel to Aswan to enjoy the tour at a more relaxed pace. First, visit the Philae Temple by boat to see the renowned temple dedicated to the goddess Isis.

Spend some time at the dual temples of Kom Ombo, also called House of the Crocodile and Castle of the Falcon, dedicated to the gods Sobek and Horus the Elder. You’ll see some mummified crocodiles near the site as well because, to the ancient Egyptian, it was a totem animal. It was said that the followers of Seth turned themselves into crocodiles to escape enemies.
The Edfu Temple’s story is no less dramatic, with the myths depicting Horus’ victory over Seth, his uncle. You may have a bit of knowledge about their enmity if you’ve watched the Gods of Egypt movie.
Once you get to Luxor, start at the West Bank to see the various burial sites of dignitaries, like the Valley of Kings, Valley of Queens, Temple of Hatshepsut, and the Valley of Nobles. You can spend some time visiting the colorful tombs and taking memorable photos.
