Can I take a day trip from Aswan to Kom Ombo or Edfu?

Yes, although these temples are often visited as part of a Nile cruise from Aswan to Luxor. If you're not cruising, they can still be reached by private car.

Can you do a day trip to Aswan from Luxor?
In fact, many tourists pass Aswan'main sights within a half day or one full day trip and then leave from Aswan on their Nile cruise to Luxor during late afternoon or evening. It's a great chance to combine an urban visit with an unforgettable water visit.
Are Aswan day tours suitable for families or kids?
Yes, Aswan day tours are very family-friendly and child-friendly! The majority of the top sights are informative and entertaining for all. Families can enjoy the more leisurely pace of visiting in Aswan compared to busier cities like Cairo.

Indeed, most Aswan tours include a short Nile cruise, especially tours to places like the Temple of Kom Ombo or a sunset felucca ride. Extended Nile cruises usually start or end in Aswan as well.

What should I wear during tours in Aswan?
Light, loose-fitting clothing is ideal for most Aswan tours due to the desert climate. The sunblock, sunglasses, and hats are a must, especially on open-air Aswan tours and in visiting temples on a Nile cruise port of call.
