The Tour Itinerary
Full-Day Itinerary with Timings
Pick-up: Our representative meets you in the lobby on the East Bank with a modern A/C minibus. Chilled water, ISO-12312-2 eclipse glasses, and light snacks are ready on board.
Skip-the-line access included. Enjoy a guided 40-minute walk through the Great Hypostyle Hall ahead of the crowds.
We stake out a clear 360° viewing spot in the Open Court, erect a shade canopy, and run a brief safety briefing on solar filters and photography tips.
The Moon takes its first "bite" out of the Sun. Use your eclipse glasses and try fast-shutter shots ($1/1000$ – $1/500$ s).
Observe the eerie twilight as it settles in, and make your final camera exposure adjustments before totality begins.
Glasses off: witness the solar corona with the ancient pylons as your backdrop, an unforgettable sight.
Glasses back on: resume filtered viewing and photography as daylight returns.
Full Sun restored; take a celebratory group photo under Karnak’s historic obelisks.
Fresh juices, local cold cuts, and fruit are served in a comfortable air-conditioned marquee near the entrance (included).
Enjoy a refreshing lunch featuring local cold cuts, gourmet sandwiches, and seasonal fruits, accompanied by fresh chilled juices to celebrate the event in comfort (included).
