Upon arrival in Cairo, we are greeted in the airport by a
Quest Travel/Luminati representative who will 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 Le Meridien Pyramids Hotel near the Pyramids and Sphinx. The rest of the day is on your own to relax
and explore.
Day Two: Friday, Sept. 25, Saqqara / Tombs of the Nobles

Nobles. This area was originally used
in the ancient schools to activate the 5th charka for speaking your truth. Lunch will be provided in a typical Egyptian
café. B/L

Let’s fly.... an early transfer to the Cairo airport and we
are off to Aswan, a beautiful city in Upper Egypt, where we will join our Nile
cruise on the M/S Sonesta Moon Goddess.
We will lunch on board, then take a small Egyptian sailboat, a felucca,
to see Elephantine Island and other sites along the shore of the Nile. For
those of you with a sense of adventure, we will go to the Aswan market for
spices, souvenirs, and much more. The sounds and smells will take you back in
time. B/L/D
Day Four: Sunday, Sept. 27, Philae / Kom Ombo
We will rise early and leave by bus to visit Philae the
Temple of Isis. Upon arrival our group
will celebrate the Mother Goddess in the sacred sanctuary of Isis, activating
the 1st chakra, as we re-member the magic we hold within. Our guide will share
the history of Philae and give us private time to explore. Next, we will sail to Kom Ombo, the Temple of
Two Gods. Here we will experience the
energy of this sacred healing temple dedicated to Horus and Seth. These 2 aspects of self live peacefully
together realizing that to know good we must experience the opposite. Our activation will be connected with the 2nd
chakra. After experiencing this temple,
we cruise on to Edfu. B/L/D
Day Five: Monday, Sept. 28, Edfu
A buggy ride will take us to the Temple of Horus at
Edfu. This temple celebrates the
movement of third dimensional energy to the fourth dimension. Horus, the son of Isis and Osiris, ascends
the third plane into the heart of unconditional love. This is accomplished through his battle with
Seth the negative aspect we all have within us. The energy of Edfu helps us
identify our world by activating the 3rd chakra. Our cruising will take us through the Esna
lock and on to Luxor. B/L/D

Moon Goddess. B/L/D
Day Seven: Wednesday, Sept. 30, Karnak Temple / Cairo Museum

Karnak Temple before the crowds. Karnak
Temple is dedicated to the Invisible God, Amun Ra. Our ceremony in the ‘holy of
holies’ will bring full circle the energy we have been experiencing throughout
our journey. Our hearts will be opened
and joy allowed to flow like a great fountain as we awaken our 4th chakra. We will also visit the Chapel of Sekhmet, the
Goddess of Personal Power that will balance the two sides of our physical
Isness. After Karnak we will have a short flight back to Cairo where we will
visit the famous Cairo Museum with the amazing collection of artifacts from the
