Upon arrival in Cairo, we are greeted in the airport by our Egyptian family from Quest Travel, who provide us with our Egyptian Visa, guide us through immigration, collect our bags, and assist with customs. An air-conditioned bus will take us to the luxurious Mena House Oberoi Hotel in Giza with a direct view onto the Great Pyramid from its garden oasis.

Relax, acclimate and meet your fellow travelers at our opening circle. Walk to the village for a welcome-dinner at local restaurant.

This day begins with a morning visit to the temple of Sakkara for the first rite of passage. This is a huge and very unique temple complex. As you enter into the temple facade you are funneled down a pathway of columns. Reach out your fingertips towards the columns and feel the energy coming from them. Sakkara is a temple of sound and crystal magic. Where the stellar energy grounds into earth and earth energy grounds into the sky. There are many special places to discover as Sakkara, such as the coiled cobras that are spectacularly detailed and the step pyramid. The ‘looking pools’ are small windows, that you can place your head in and think of someone who needs healing. Make a sound and receive information about what would help them and the origin of their imbalance. We will work in a private empowerment with the energies of the pyramid texts and symbology to awaken the understanding of the synchronicities and symbols in your life. 
Lunch and opportunities to shop at the Khan Khalili Bazaar. The atmospheres of this traditional market, together with the labyrinth layout of the streets, gives you a glimpse into what medieval markets once were like.
Afternoon visit of the Cairo Museum . Our word-renowned Egyptologist Emil Shaker, guides us through this famous museum with a collection of over 200,000 ancient Egyptian artifacts, dating back to 4,000 BC. Visiting the museum is an opportunity to see the statues and artifacts that originally were located in the temples, this paints a fuller picture when you go the temples, like seeing the original furniture designed for a house. There you will experience first-hand the different periods of ancient Egypt and the individual artistic and architectural styles of each period. One of the highlights of this museum is the visit to the treasures of Tut-Ank-Amon. There will be time to explore the museum on your own.
In the evening we gently approach the energy of Upper Egypt with an overnight sleeper-train to Aswan.

We arrive in the morning in Aswan and check into our beautiful private sailing yacht.

In the afternoon we sail to the South end of Elephantine Island by taking a Felucca, which is a smallish sail boat operated by Nubians, the original people of Upper Egypt. The felucca ride is enchanted with celebrations of drumming and dancing with the Nubians. A beautiful botanical garden, filled with fragrant flowers and lush greenery, marks the entrance to the temple complex of Elephantine Island. This land is dedicated to the rams headed creator God Khnum and there is a chapel dedicated to him and his consort Satet. This temple is still partially intact and is built upon layers and layers and layers of temples below it. Each temple of the past is dismantled and another built upon it. Elephantine Island feels truly divine and magical and is also a wonderful place to see the layers of ancient Egypt unfold before you and feel her roots. In an empowerment meditation at the Temple of Khnum we will work on connecting to the energy of this fertile land and strengthening our natural ability to give and receive.

We sail before sunrise to the island of Isis’s temple Philae for an exclusive visit. Philae is one of the most beautiful sites in Egypt. It is surrounded by water and filled with enchantment and the energy of love, which so palpable it feels as if one is floating in liquid love. Isis is the Goddess of divine love, magic, healing and forgiveness. At the Holy of Hollies entrain to pure love consciousness with a heart opening initiation. Free time in Aswan before we sail to Kom Ombo

In the afternoon we will continue our sail down the Nile to Edfu - settle back, relax and enjoy the unique beauty of the scenery.

We begin the day with an early morning visit to the magnificent Karnak Temple. Karnak is the biggest temple complex in Egypt - and a very special place. It is dedicated to the Gods Amun and Mut. As you enter you walk between a row of rams 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 her 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.  Read also Danielle's article on

Afternoon free to explore Luxor's market, museum, and other fascinating sites.

Night visit to the Temple of Luxor and work with the brilliance of the human body. Walk through the rows or rams headed Sphinxes that connect to Karnak temple. Here we are able to see that this temple is built like a human body. The outside layers represent the feet and as we move deeper into the temple we move 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. Luxor Temple is also associated with stellar consciousness, the aspect of us that is a star. Awaken the parts of you that are sleeping, activate divinity codes and turn on your inner light.
