A spiritual tour of Egypt: temples, meditation and the living Nile
This spiritual tour of Egypt is a journey of reflection as much as discovery. Guided by an Egyptologist who specialises in the sacred traditions of ancient Egypt, our small group visits the great temples at quiet hours, with time for meditation, ritual and sharing along the way.
We begin with sunrise at the Sphinx and a private entry inside the Great Pyramid, then follow the path of the ancient priests to Dendera, Abydos and the Osirion, Karnak and Luxor. Four nights sailing the Nile take us past Edfu and Kom Ombo to Philae, the island temple of Isis.
