Ancient Luxor and a full solar eclipse of the century from Hurghada

Join one of the most extraordinary events of the decade and witness the Total Solar Eclipse on 2 August 2027 from an exceptional viewing location. Luxor is recognised as one of the premier spots globally to observe this awe-inspiring spectacle.

Your memorable journey commences with a dawn departure from Hurghada, heading towards Luxor. Begin your day at the magnificent Luxor Temple, a standout amongst Ancient Egypt’s architectural wonders. Then gather at the iconic Sphinx Alley to experience the magical moment when daylight fades as the Moon obscures the Sun. Following this once-in-a-lifetime celestial event, savour a delightful lunch.

The adventure carries on with a crossing by local motorboats to Luxor’s West Bank. En route to the royal necropolis, pause for unforgettable photographs at the imposing Colossi of Memnon, two colossal statues that have stood sentinel over the Theban plain for millennia. Proceed to the Valley of the Kings and delve into three royal tombs, uncover the intriguing history and beliefs surrounding the Pharaohs and their eternal journey. The experience culminates with a visit to the spectacular Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut, constructed for the influential female Pharaoh Hatshepsut beneath the dramatic limestone cliffs of Deir El Bahari. Return to Hurghada in the evening, bearing memories of a truly singular day where astronomy, history, and the wonders of Ancient Egypt converged in one unforgettable experience.
