Egypt is a land steeped in history and antiquities – an exotic land of mystery and legend. Take a personal spiritual journey to the land of the Gods to see the amazing temples and palaces of the upper Nile.
Our pilgrimage begins with a gentle mini-cruise on the upper reaches of the Nile visiting the powerful temples of Isis, Edfu, Komombo Karnak and Luxor. We explore the Valley of the Kings and Queens taking the pilgrims route.
We also spend time in ancient Cairo visiting the Mary church, the Coptic museum with its many Christian artefacts, the bazaar and the Golden Treasures of Tuthankamen.
Enjoy the peace and tranquillity of the western desert as we visit her hidden monasteries. A journey to Egypt would not be complete without spending private time in the Great Pyramid where we conduct attunements, and visiting the enigmatic Sphinx.
Learn about the culture, history and mysteries of this great land, and of it's Atlantean origins.
Our small-sized groups makes this a memorable journey, and is at an affordable price.
£1145 approx. (plus airfare, £350 approx.)
Optional extension to Jordan - £295 approx.
If you wish you can add an extra wonder to your spiritual holiday then a three-day trip into Jordan to explore the rose-coloured Holy City of Petra is recommended. On this extension to the main Egypt tour you will also have the opportunity for a evening ascent of Mt Sinai and an overnight stay in a Bedouin camp, as well as quiet times for reflection and meditation.
