The longest totality on land this century, over the temples of ancient Thebes. Watch it from a VIP air-conditioned viewing lounge, with small, expert-guided groups.
Eclipse chasers plan years ahead for this one. Here is why Upper Egypt is the place to be.
Luxor gets 6 minutes 22 seconds of totality, the maximum anywhere on this eclipse.
Upper Egypt in August has some of the clearest skies on the eclipse path.
Watch the sky go dark over Karnak and the Valley of the Kings.
A totality this long over land won't happen again until 2114.
Four ways to see totality from Egypt. Every tour includes a seat in our VIP air-conditioned viewing lounge, certified eclipse glasses and an expert guide on eclipse day.
