Overview & Date
Why This Eclipse Matters
On August 2, 2027, the Moon’s shadow will pass directly over Egypt, producing over six minutes of totality — the longest total solar eclipse visible anywhere on Earth this century.
Egypt offers a uniquely ideal setting:
Exceptional eclipse duration
Historically clear skies
Open horizons along the Nile, ideal for unobstructed viewing
This is not a tour that simply includes an eclipse.
It is a journey designed around it.
Why This Expedition Is Different
Most eclipse tours rely on land-based viewing locations or large commercial Nile cruises.
Our group will experience the eclipse from a private Egyptian sailing yacht (dahabiya Hadeel) on the Nile, positioned precisely within the path of totality.
Open horizons. No crowds. No congestion.
Just the eclipse, experienced calmly and intentionally.
Beyond viewing the eclipse from our private yacht, this journey includes rare private-access experiences, five-star comfort throughout, and personal leadership from the founder.
Intentionally limited to ensure:
Crowd-free experiences
Flexible, access-driven timing
High-quality private access
A calm, refined group dynamic
The Defining Experience: Eclipse on a Private Yacht
On eclipse day, our private yacht will be positioned directly within the path of totality on the Nile.
What this means for you:
Uninterrupted views over open water
No land congestion or public viewing zones
No cruise-ship crowds
Calm, controlled positioning
There is no finer way to experience the longest total solar eclipse of the century.
Five-Star Comfort Throughout

VIP Private Entry to the Giza Plateau – Exclusive access to sphinx at sunrise – Valley Temple – Giza Pyramids
Our day begins before public access, with a private entry onto the Giza Plateau during the quiet hours of early morning. This rare timing allows us to experience the site in stillness, free from crowds.
We proceed to the Great Sphinx enclosure for an exclusive sunrise visit, entering the enclosure as the sun rises over the plateau. Standing between the paws of the Sphinx in the hush of dawn offers a perspective few travelers ever experience.
This session focuses on what can be observed directly on site—geology, context, symbolism, and architectural intent—offering insights and perspectives rarely addressed during standard visits.
Next, we enter the Valley Temple, a megalithic marvel of laser-precise limestone blocks so massive and masterfully fitted that they whisper of a forgotten technology. Many believe this is where a lost chapter of human history was written in stone.
After breakfast, we return to the Giza Plateau—not just to marvel at the iconic pyramids of Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure—but also to reveal the overlooked aspects of the Giza Plateau often passed over by the casual tourist. We discuss many theories, alignments, construction anomalies, and sacred geometry encoded in the pyramids design. Together, we begin unraveling the ancient enigmas that Egypt left behind.

FLY Cairo → Luxor | Luxor Temple (After-Hours Private Access)
After breakfast, we fly south to Luxor—ancient Thebes, Egypt’s spiritual heart, and once home to your expedition leader, Anyextee. This is sacred ground, where temples speak in symbols and stone preserves initiatic wisdom.
At night, we enter Luxor Temple during a private, after-hours visit, closed to the public. With the temple entirely to ourselves and uninterrupted beneath the stars, it reveals itself not as a monument, but as a living text of sacred science. Through the lens of R.A. Schwaller de Lubicz—expanded in Anyextee’s bestselling The Adept Initiate’s Guide to Luxor Temple—we explore the Temple of Man: a cosmic blueprint encoding the human form, consciousness, and spiritual transformation.
Later, we board our private dahabiya, a traditional Egyptian sailing vessel that becomes our floating home on the Nile. Designed for comfort and intimacy, it features a lounge, library, indoor and outdoor dining, and expansive sundecks for the journey ahead.
Guests can relax in the jacuzzi on the upper sundeck, unwind on shaded seating areas, or simply take in the passing river landscape as we sail between ancient sites. With its elegant design and unhurried pace, there is no finer way to experience the Nile.

West Bank: Hatshepsut Temple – Valley of the Kings – The Ramesseum – Colossi of Memnon & More!
Our journey begins with an early morning visit to the magnificent Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el-Bahari, rising like a vision carved into the cliffs. This architectural masterpiece—dedicated to Egypt’s most powerful female pharaoh—embodies divine kingship and the sacred feminine. Here, Anyextee reveals how Hatshepsut’s legacy echoes through the initiatory orders of the West.
We continue into the heart of the Valley of the Kings, where the tombs of Egypt’s most legendary pharaohs await, their walls inscribed with celestial maps and spells to guide the soul through the afterlife.
After lunch, we explore the towering ruins of the Ramesseum, the mortuary temple of Ramesses the Great, whose fallen colossus inspired Shelley’s immortal poem Ozymandias. Our final stop takes us to the Colossi of Memnon, twin sentinels of Amenhotep III, standing in solemn silence at the gateway to the West Bank—guardians of forgotten worlds and eternal truths.

ABYDOS: Temple of Seti I & The Osireion (PRIVATE ACCESS) – Dendera: Temple of Hathor
After a delightful breakfast, we journey through the timeless countryside of Upper Egypt, making our way to Abydos—one of the most sacred pilgrimage sites of the ancient world. Here stands the majestic Temple of Seti I, dedicated to Osiris, Lord of the Afterlife. With its exquisite reliefs and mystical symbolism, this temple offers more than just history—it delivers what many Egyptologists believe is the highest expression of ancient Egyptian art.
Anyextee leads us through the temple’s hidden language, delivering a powerful lesson on esoteric symbolism that reveals how Abydos served as a spiritual map for the soul’s journey through death, resurrection, and divine union.
Just beyond, hidden behind the main structure, lies the subject of Anyextee’s forthcoming book, the enigmatic Osireion—a subterranean megalithic chamber shrouded in mystery. Its colossal granite pillars, some etched with the elusive “Flower of Life”, invite you to question the orthodox timeline. Is this a remnant of a lost civilization, as many alternative researchers suggest? We’ll examine the evidence together and explore its deeper metaphysical implications.
In the afternoon, we travel to Dendera to explore the Temple of Hathor, goddess of love, joy, music—and the Cosmic Feminine. Though built in the Ptolemaic era, this temple retains deep echoes of Egypt’s sacred science. Here, we’ll observe the stark contrast between the refined elegance of New Kingdom craftsmanship and the artistic decline of later periods—an important symbolic and historical lesson that still resonates across Egypt’s sacred landscape.
After a full day of exploring these incredible sites, we’ll return to the comfort of our hotel in Luxor to relax and reflect on the ancient mysteries uncovered today.

Karnak Temple & the Sanctuary of Sekhmet (Private Access)
We begin the day with an early visit to the vast and awe-inspiring Karnak Temple, one of the most sacred precincts of ancient Egypt. Consecrated to Amun, the hidden force and life-bestower, Karnak embodies the organic principle of creation. Each chamber, pylon, and corridor represents a stage in the unfolding of the cosmos—a sacred mirror of the genesis of the universe.
In ancient times, joyous processions linked Karnak to Luxor Temple, reenacting the creation myth through ritual and conscious magic. Though this magic has faded from modern memory, the architecture still whispers its secrets, offering a rare glimpse into the consciousness of a spiritually advanced civilization.
Our journey crescendos with a private visit inside Sekhmet’s sanctuary at the Temple of Ptah. This sacred chamber, closed to the public, leaves few who enter untouched—and fewer still who walk away unchanged. We exit Karnak Temple awestruck, humbled, and exhilarated, minds buzzing with insight and hearts opened by the ancient fire.

Total Solar Eclipse – Sail to Esna – Multimedia lecture with Anyextee
Path of Totality: The eclipse travels from the Atlantic Ocean across North Africa, with Egypt as one of the world’s most exceptional viewing locations. Totality lasts an extraordinary 6 minutes 23 seconds, with peak darkness occurring near midday.
This is the best viewing location on Earth—free from congestion, directly on the Nile River. Few places on the planet can rival this moment, and none offer it with such serenity.
As we sail toward Esna, Anyextee presents a never-before-experienced, multimedia presentation, created exclusively for this rare celestial event.
We arrive in Esna by night, where the recently revealed astronomical ceiling of the temple —so often passed over by casual visitors—awaits. It is only fitting that we reach this sacred place on such an auspicious day.

Esna – Edfu: Temple of Horus
We step into the mythic world of the Temple of Horus at Edfu, one of the best-preserved temples of the ancient world. Consecrated to Horus of Behdet—the falcon-headed avenger of his father Osiris—this temple stands as a monument to divine justice, mythic resurrection, and heroic transformation.
Here, Anyextee will unpack the hidden esoteric layers encoded in its walls, diving deep into the Edfu Building Texts—a cryptic record some scholars believe may be the very source of Plato’s Atlantis narrative. These inscriptions reveal more than mythology—they transmit an initiatory blueprint. The battle between Horus and Set is not just a myth; it is a spiritual allegory for the inner war between light and shadow.
Through this lens, we come to understand Edfu not merely as a shrine to a god, but as a Temple of Transformation, guiding the initiate through death, rebirth, and the realization of the divine warrior within.

Kom Ombo Temple – Sail to Aswan
Kom Ombo, perched on a scenic bend of the Nile, is one of Egypt’s most visually striking temples—dedicated to the dual forces of Sobek and Horus the Elder. This unique twin dedication reflects a balance of vitality and divine order.
Once a thriving healing center and temple of initiation, Kom Ombo served as both hospital and sacred sanctuary. Though partly in ruins today, its symmetry, symbolism, and riverside setting still radiate the energy of transformation.

Aswan Quarry: Unfinished Obelisk – Philae Island: Temple of Isis (Private rooftop access with panoramic views)
We begin with a visit to the granite quarries of Aswan, where the massive Unfinished Obelisk—weighing an estimated 1,200 tons—remains partially carved from the bedrock. This colossal relic offers a glimpse into ancient Egypt’s astonishing stoneworking skill, still shrouded in mystery. The site reveals layers of quarrying techniques across the ages, raising questions about lost methods and advanced know-how.
Next, we journey to the enchanting Temple of Philae, dedicated to Isis (Auset)—goddess of magic, motherhood, and the sacred throne. Aligned with the star Sirius, Isis was central to Egypt’s spiritual life and later inspired the Christian archetype of the Virgin Mary.
Despite Ptolemaic-era reliefs and later defacement, Philae radiates the divine feminine, perched on its Nile island like a jewel of devotion. Here, we witness the spiritual handoff from Egypt’s Immortality Doctrine to the emerging symbols of early Christianity.
Enjoy an exclusive rooftop visit above the crowds, with sweeping panoramic views of the island.

Saqqara: Entry Inside The Step Pyramid – Entry Inside The Pyramid of Unas – Serapeum – Dahshur: Bent Pyramid – Red Pyramid
After breakfast, we journey deep into the Sacred Necropolis of Saqqara, the world’s oldest monumental stone complex, where the genius of Imhotep, priest, architect, and sage, gave rise to the legendary Step Pyramid of King Djoser.
This six-tiered structure atop a mastaba base marks the birth of pyramid-building—and of Egypt’s grand symbolic architecture in stone. Enjoy special access to the interior of the Step Pyramid of Djoser.
Our exploration continues into the shadows of the enigmatic Serapeum, a subterranean labyrinth of massive granite sarcophagi. Traditionally said to be tombs for the sacred Apis bulls linked to Ptah, we’ll investigate provocative alternative theories suggesting advanced engineering and forgotten technologies at work.
Then we journey to Dahshur, where a rare opportunity awaits: entry into the Bent Pyramid, once sealed off from the world for decades. Egyptologists claim its curious change in angle represents a transitional stage in pyramid engineering—but what if it’s more than a structural experiment?
From a symbolist perspective, could the Bent Pyramid encode something more, a deliberate dual-angle design reflecting esoteric principles of balance, transformation, or duality? We’ll examine this ancient anomaly not just through the lens of archaeology—but initiation.
Nearby, we’ll encounter the Black Pyramid and enter the Red Pyramid, each holding their own mysteries in form, function, and alignment—perhaps offering clues to a lost legacy in stone.

Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM) – Inside The Great Pyramid (Private Access) – Fare-well Dinner Party
We begin our final day with a guided visit to the newly opened Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), bringing our journey full circle. Here, artifacts are reconnected to the temples and sites we’ve explored, allowing us to contextualize what we’ve learned by seeing these masterworks placed within their original cultural and sacred settings.
We close our journey with an extraordinary and rare VIP experience inside the Great Pyramid of Giza. With special access to all chambers, including the subterranean chamber, the Queen’s Chamber, and the mystical King’s Chamber, this private session is often the most emotionally powerful and transformational moment of the expedition.
To stand in the heart of the Great Pyramid—alone, in silence—is something few ever experience… and none ever forget. Few are those who walk away from this experience unmoved.
We end our epic journey with a farewell dinner party, a time to reflect, celebrate newfound connections, and share the transformative experiences we’ve lived together—beneath the stars, in the shadow of the ancients.

Alexandria (1 Day Pre-Tour) with Anyextee
Kick off your journey with a powerful head start—a perfect way to meet some of your fellow travelers and connect before the official tour begins.
The experience starts in the morning with a comfortable three-hour drive to Alexandria in an air-conditioned vehicle, guided by Anyextee. Egypt’s second-largest city, Alexandria is known for its Greco-Roman heritage, Mediterranean ambiance, and long-standing historical significance. Founded by Alexander the Great in 332 BC, it served as Egypt’s capital for more than 300 years.
This excursion highlights Alexandria’s most important landmarks, including the Bibliotheca Alexandrina, the Catacombs of Kom ash-Shuqqafa, and the Roman Amphitheater. We also visit the historic harbor, home to the Citadel of Sultan Qaitbay, which stands on the site of the ancient Lighthouse of Alexandria—one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.
In the evening, we return to Cairo.

TANIS & BUBASTIS (1-day post-tour add-on) with Anyextee
After breakfast, we depart the hotel and head off the beaten path to explore two of Egypt’s rarely visited, yet historically rich ancient sites. Our first stop is Tell Basta, also known as Bubastis, once the vibrant cult center of Bastet, the feline goddess of protection and fertility. Though now in ruins, the site still pulses with ancient energy. We’ll explore its in-door and open-air museum, then enjoy private VIP access to the ruined temple complex, where granite remains whisper of a once-majestic sanctuary to the cat goddess.
Next, we journey to Tanis, the fabled City of Treasures—immortalized in Indiana Jones and featured in the Biblical text as Zoan. Once the seat of kings and a major capital in Egypt’s northern Delta, Tanis stunned archaeologists with the discovery of royal tombs and treasure rivaling Tutankhamun’s, yet remains largely unknown to tourists. Here, amid colossal statues and scattered ruins, we trace the legacy of forgotten dynasties.
This pre-tour extension sets the tone for what’s to come—deep exploration, rich connection, and access to mysteries most travelers never see.
