5.00Kom Ombo Temple’s historical richness left a lasting impression. Tour Guide Hussein’s detailed explanations and photography tips elevated the experience. The driver ensured punctual and smooth transport along the Nile. Observing the dual temples’ carvings up close and learning about ancient rituals was fascinating. A minor incident with my bag reminded me of the attentive guidance from Hussein and the driver, turning it into a lighthearted memory.
