After a short ride, you will arrive at the Karnak temple complex. This temple is one of the most significant structures in ancient Egypt. A large wall, which was used for religious events, surrounds the main structure. You can visit the Hypostyle Hall, which is composed of 134 huge columns with reliefs representing the wars of King Thutmose III against Syria and Nubia as well as scenes of daily life.

Then you will board a boat to see Luxor Temple, which Amenhotep III built in honor of the gods Amun-Re, Mut, and Khonsu. There are two main temples: one honors Amen-Ra, the other the goddesses Mut-Thekhu. In addition to these two temples, there are other structures in the complex, including the Colonnade Hall and the small temple of Hathor, which can be seen on the north side of Amenhotep III.

You will then return to your boat and spend the night there.

You start your day by going to the Temple of Horus in Edfu. Here you will find some of the finest examples of Egyptian art and architecture. Horus, the falcon-headed deity of heaven and royalty, was the subject of the temple that Pharaoh Ptolemy II Philadelphus (285-246 BC) erected. Then you will go to Kom Ombo, where you will discover the importance of this place in relation to the attempt to unify Egypt by King Ramses II (1279-1213 BC).
