• Luxor to Aswan

    February 8 in Egypt ⋅ ☀️ 61 °F

    We were told there were no big buses from Luxor to Aswan (turns out there is), so we hired a private car to take us with stops at a couple of temples on the way. Edfu and Kom Ombo temples. Usually visited via a Nile cruise. We opted for the hard way. Something we hadn't seen before we're the birthing temples located right outside the main temple.
    Kom Ombo also had the crocodile museum. The crocodile played a big part in Egyptian history, so there were many crocodiles that got mummified.
    It was a long day, but we did finally make it to Aswan and our homestay on Elefantine Island.
