Embarking on two transformative journeys through Egypt alongside Michelle has been nothing short of extraordinary. Words falter in capturing the magnificence of the ancient temples we've encountered - each visit unveiling a profound sense of wonder. In the embrace of this mystical land, one can't escape the palpable presence of history whispering its secrets.

Receive an 8-segment video course from our Egyptologist Noha Aly, discussing the powerful temples that we will be visiting.
If you don't need any more information because
Your skin is tingling, and your heart is thudding...
If you love to get down to the finite details, keep reading.
We have everything laid out for you below.
In the eyes of the Egyptians, their land was more than just soil and rivers - it was a sacred embodiment of heaven's reflection on Earth. They revered the Nile not just as a mere waterway but as a tangible representation of the Milky Way, the celestial river above.
Now, imagine tapping into this ancient wisdom, feeling the resonance of ages past stirring within you. Are you curious to unlock the messages, guidance, and insights waiting to be unveiled?
While each person's experience is uniquely their own, prepare for 8-days filled with relaxation, rejuvenation, meaningful rituals, and profound realignments.
But it's not all serious introspection. Amidst the soul-stirring experiences, expect moments of pure joy, laughter, and camaraderie. After all, the journey of the soul should be as enriching as it is enlightening.
The 2025 Tour Itinerary
September 16-23, 2025
Remember, spontaneous changes are part of the fun!!!
DAY 1
Cairo (Dinner)
Tuesday, September 16th - Arrive in Cairo by 3 p.m. (If at all possible, we encourage you to come a day early)
You will be greeted at Cairo International Airport and escorted to Le Meridian Hotel across from the airport. At the hotel, you will be assisted for a smooth check-in. Then relax at the pool and/or schedule a spa treatment.
The tour begins with an evening welcome dinner with one of our guides.
(You will be meeting with Michelle and the others tomorrow.)
DAY 2
Luxor (Breakfast/Dinner)
Wednesday, September 17th - Cairo to Luxor
After transfer from Cairo to Luxor. You will meet up with Michelle and the others for a visit to the magnificent Karnak Temple. Karnak is the biggest temple complex in Egypt – and an incredibly special place. It is dedicated to the Gods Amun and Mut. As you enter, you walk between a row of ram headed sphinxes, which originally connected Karnak with Luxor Temple two miles away. Take some time to visit the sacred Lake of Karnak, ask for purification and place your intention in your mind’s eye into the Lake. Outside the main halls is a small chapel dedicated to Sekhmet, her consort Ptah and their son Nefertum. Sekhmet is the lioness Goddess of compassion and courage. She is associated with feminine fire and healing through destruction. She is a renowned healer and known for magic and ability to hunt down an imbalance at its origin. In a potent private initiation, we will honor the Goddess and receive the gift of courage to be our authentic selves. We will have a meditation with Sekhmet and enjoy the shade under Hathor's sycamore tree, noted to be 2000 years old.
Check in at Sonesta Luxor Hotel.
In the evening under the Stars we will visit the Temple of Luxor. The large Ancient Egyptian Temple complex located in the East Bank of the Nile River. Here we are able to see that this temple is built like a human body – the outer layers represent the feet and as we move deeper into the temple, we make our way towards the head, where the Holy of Holies, the inner sanctuary, is located. This is a wonderful place to focus on physical healing. As you walk through the body of this temple, notice how your body feels and re-member radiant health. Awaken the parts of you that are sleeping, activate divinity codes and turn on your inner light.
(Our group gets bigger today!)
DAY 3
West Bank of Luxor (Breakfast/Dinner)
Thursday, September 18th - Medinat Habu / Hatshepsut Temple / Memnon Statue / Luxor Market
This morning after breakfast, we take a bus ride to explore the West Bank of ancient Thebes. While it is not among the most well-traveled sites on the West Bank, Medinat Habu is considered by many visitors to be among the most impressive sights they see in Luxor. This temple complex is impressively preserved, especially in comparison to the Rameseum, on which its plan is based.
While the Rameseum was built by a more famous pharaoh (Ramesses II), Medinat Habu, commissioned by Ramesses III, is a more more impressive sight with its pylon and many of its walls still intact and more more of the original painting visible on its carved surfaces.
We will also visit the mortuary Hatshepsut Temple, and on our way back we will stop at the Colossi of Memnon, two massive stone statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III, where they are now uncovering the Temple of Mut, which will be larger than Karnak Temple once it is excavated.
In the evening we will visit Luxor Market, where we can enjoy the local flavors and sights.
DAY 4
Abydos Temple & Dendara Temple (Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner)
Friday, September 19th - Private Visit at Abydos Temple* & Private Visit at Dendara Temple*
After early breakfast, we will transfer you directly to visit Abydos Temple, which was one of the most important religious sites to ancient Egyptians. As a result, the Temple he built contains small chapels dedicated to each of the major gods: Ptah, Re-Harakhte, Amun-Re, Osiris, Isis, and Horus. Much like modern Muslims hope to complete a pilgrimage to Mecca at lease once in their lifetime, ancient Egyptians would have hopes to visit Abydos, which for them was strongly associated with the Entrance into the afterlife.
On the way back to Luxor you will visit the exquisite Temple of Dendara, dedicated to Hathor, the goddess of abundance, love, Fertility, childbirth, joy, music, dance, drunkenness, and escorting souls through the afterlife. The temple is built with a zodiac ceiling that recalls the origins of Egypt. In the temples crypt, interesting hieroglyphics look nearly alien in nature. The mysterious "light bulb" carvings raise theories about ancient energy sources. On the rooftop where Hathor priests and priestesses gathered for their celebrations thousands of years ago, we will reconnect to our heart centers in a heart opening chakra ceremony. We will also connect with Earth and Cosmic energies, using Love to amplify both and return them in gratitude. Return to Luxor.
* Subject to Availability.

We will start our day with a special visit to the Sphinx, Horus of the Horizon, is facing the rising sun, the Great Sphinx is located on the Giza Plateau, on the west bank of the Nile River. Later Egyptian rulers worshipped in as an aspect of the sun god, calling it Hor Akhet. The Sphinx sits in part of the necropolis of ancient Memphis, the seat of Power for the Pharaohs, a short distance from the three large Pyramids.
Afternoon, we enjoy visiting Saqqara where we visit the most impressive of dozens of Old Kingdom Pyramids and tombs on the West Bank near Ancient Memphis, including the oldest pyramid, the Step Pyramid of Djoser, and its temple of soul and healing. About 2630 BC Imhotep, architect to King Djoser (Dynasty III), masterminded the Step Pyramid of Sakkara. The world's oldest freestanding stone structure, this Pyramid consists of six tiers atop a mastaba, or low, oblong tomb, faced with cut stone. This magnificent site includes other Old Kingdom tombs, among them those that hold the earliest known hieroglyphs and The Pyramid Texts (Unas) that were the model for the Egyptian Book of the Dead.
You will visit a famous perfumery and meet Aura and Aromatherapy Master - Gamal, who developed his spiritual abilities since childhood and lived several years in the Sinai where he learned from the Bedouins and becomes a "Healer from the Heart." Experience "The Seven Sacred Chakra Oils of Pharaohs" - traditional Egyptian Essential Oils.

Cairo (Breakfast/Dinner)

Our guide, who is an excyclopedia of Egyptology, will give us detailed examinations of various controversial theories surrounding these amazing structures.
In the afternoon, you will visit the brand - New Grand Egyptian Museum, a stunning architectural marvel that straddles the 162-foot difference in levels between the Nile Valley and the Giza Plateau. Explore the sculpture gardens in the museum park and marvel at the massive statue of Ramses II in the main atrium. As we ascend the Grand Staircase, lined with 87 statues of kings and gods, you will feel a sense of awe and wonder at the incredible history and culture of Egypt.

Julia Wilson
Transformation Coach and Photographer
Embarking on a spiritual journey to Egypt is a calling that many receive, but few are brave enough to answer. I was blessed to answer this call and spend 14 transformative days exploring the ancient temples and sacred sites of this land. As I walked through the halls of the Temple of Isis and the Temple of Horus, I felt the powerful energy of the divine feminine and masculine flowing through me. The experiences I had at these temples were nothing short of miraculous, and I was amazed by how much I was able to grow and change in such a short period of time. One of the highlights of my trip was the activation I received in the great pyramid, where I was able to connect with my inner wisdom and tap into the power of my divine feminine. This activation unlocked a deep sense of empowerment and self-love within me, and I felt a newfound connection to my purpose and path in life. The vibrations you feel when in this place is an experience you won’t find anywhere else in the world. Overall, my trip to Egypt was a truly transformative experience, and I am grateful for the spiritual work I was able to do at the temples. I would highly recommend this journey to anyone looking to tap into their inner wisdom and divine energy, and I look forward to continuing my spiritual growth and evolution.
