So, we arrived at Edfu by cruise boat, but still had to get to the Temple.
There appeared to be two methods of transport on offer. The first was by small bus or car, which is the method we used.
The second was by horse-drawn carriage - and there were loads of them. Unfortunately the poor horses looked to be very mis-treated.....so I would not recommend this option.
It was about a 10 minute drive from the dock to the temple - a little hairy, considering the number of horses and pedestrians we had to dodge - and all this at 7am!!

As part of our 3 day Nile Cruise, we stopped at Edfu to allow a visit to the Temple.
The ship docked up against other similar cruise boats, and we had to walk through the reception area of each boat to get to shore!
The cruise was certainly a relaxing method of transport to take us from one amazing attraction to another!

The Temple of Horus at Idfu was built by the Greco -Romans in the style of the old pharonic temples and is in very good condition because it was buried under sand for many centuries.
