What would the ancient Egyptians have thought of an unexplained darkening of the skies? Was the sun god Ra angry or playfully hiding?  Fortunately, travelers on this tour will have explanations from astronomer Dr. James Dire to guide us on our total eclipse experience.  In addition, our expert Egyptologist guide will explain the legends of the gods and goddesses and their interactions with humans in the ancient world.  We visit memorable sites of the pyramids, sphinx, temples and burial tombs and take a Nile River cruise.  Take the optional extension to relax and enjoy the Red Sea coast.  Space is limited for this once in a lifetime experience.
