Day 1: We hoist the sails and start our magical journey. Our first stop is the Temple of Kom ombo, picturesquely located on a bend of the Nile. The exceptionally beautiful double, which began in the Ptolemaic dynasty, was dedicated to the crocodile god Sobek and the falcon god Haroeris. Sobek was celebrated by the burial of countless mummified crocodiles, whose astonishingly well-preserved bodies are on display today in a museum.
In Gebel el Silsila, we discover ancient sandstone boulders and chapels hewn into the rock dating back to rulers of pharaonic times. The chain of sandstone cliffs was used as a gigantic quarry, where tons of stone was chiseled for many of the pharaonic temples we will visit on our dahabiya cruise. But this was also the location of numerous shrines and cult buildings, including the famous Great Speos of Pharaoh Horemheb and the fascinating Nile chapels from the New Kingdom, once chosen to be inundated by the Nile in the annual flooding.
