Everyone deserves to experience the wonders of Egypt at least once. Designed for travelers for whom time is not a luxury, this enchanting time-travel adventure takes you back to the days of the pharaohs via extensive and expertly guided private tours of Cairo and Luxor. Uncover the myths, mysteries, and ancient monuments of one of humankind’s greatest civilizations with your own Egyptologist guide and driver. Stand before the great pyramids and the mighty Sphinx in Giza, browse for trinkets in Luxor’s gold markets, and uncover the secrets buried beneath the sands in the Valley of the Kings.
The grandeur of Ancient Egypt cannot be overstated, as you’ll discover for yourself at the Pyramids of Giza and other important sites. In Luxor, “the world’s greatest open-air museum,” you’ll visit the captivating temples of Karnak and Luxor and stroll through the Valley of the Kings to the tomb of Tutankhamun himself. Back in Cairo, see the collected wonders of the ancient ones spread out before you at the Egyptian Museum, browse the stalls at the Khan el-Khalili bazaar at night, and sample tantalizing Egyptian cuisine. Round-trip flights between Cairo and Luxor are included, ensuring you spend more of your limited time exploring.
On August 2, 2027, we will witness something that hasn’t touched this land in over a century: a total solar eclipse in Luxor, the ancient heart of Egyptian mystery and celestial worship.
Imagine standing on the deck of a luxury vessel drifting along the Nile—the same river pharaohs believed was the pathway between worlds—as daylight softens, the air stills, and the moon begins its slow, deliberate crossing.
For a few breathtaking minutes, the world will shift.
The sky will darken to a deep twilight.
The sun’s radiant corona will flare in a luminous halo.
The temperature will drop.
Birdsong will hush.
Time will feel suspended.
This is totality—a rare astronomical event that ancient Egyptians aligned temples, rituals, and cosmology around. In their mythology, eclipses symbolized powerful moments of rebirth and renewal, when the sun god Ra traveled through darkness and emerged victorious. They believed these celestial events opened portals for transformation—both personal and collective.
Modern science confirms that totality is unlike any other eclipse experience:
only a tiny fraction of the planet will see the sun completely covered
Luxor lies directly in the path of maximum duration
the corona—normally invisible—can only be seen during totality
Most people will never experience this in their lifetime. Even fewer will witness it from Luxor, surrounded by temples built in devotion to the sun.
To be here, in this place, in this moment, is nothing short of extraordinary.
A once-in-a-lifetime celestial alignment…
in the cradle of ancient spiritual wisdom…
held in presence and community.
