Egypt
March 31-April 12, 2026
Egypt is a place where time expands and breathes — holding the most extensive collection of ancient sites and artifacts still accessible anywhere on Earth — and on this journey, we hold private access to the Pyramids, Sphinx and the Temple of Isis.
You will stand before the great Sphinx and touch the ancient door that leads to hidden passageways.
You will enter the great pyramid… not with thousands, but a select few, new friends, and feel its energy — undisturbed by the world.
Under the luminous glow of the Full Pink Moon, you will commune with the goddess Isis herself.
These rare permissions are a gift — granted through the grace of the Egyptian government through our Egyptologist, Emil Shaker. This access is not guaranteed in the future. We humbly extend it to you — now.
