THE ONE AND ONLY PLACE TO WITNESS IT – THE LOST GOLDEN CITY
Our tour promises an experience like no other. While most eclipse chasers will flock to the crowded temples in Luxor or gather on cruise ships and at their hotels, you will observe this astronomical wonder from the most enviable spot on the planet.
Archaeological Paths offers you an exclusive VIP experience in the newly discovered Lost Golden City. Dedicated to the sun god Aten, this archaeological marvel is the very place where Egyptians worshipped the sun 3,000 years ago. As an active excavation site, the Lost Golden City is closed to tourists, but thanks to special permission from Egypt’s Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities, its ancient gates will open just for you.

Get ready for an experience that words can scarcely capture. Today, as the moon blocks out the sun’s light for a full 6 minutes and 22 seconds, you will be among the privileged few to witness this celestial phenomenon from the Lost Golden City, Egypt’s greatest discovery of the century. This ancient city is closed to the public, but its gates will open exclusively for Archaeological Paths’ guests for this once-in-a-lifetime occasion.

Two of Egypt’s most distinguished figures, Dr. Zahi Hawass, the world’s most famous archaeologist and the man who discovered the Lost Golden City, and Dr. Khaled El-Enany, Egypt’s First Minister of Tourism and Antiquities, will join you for this incomparable experience. They’ll offer insightful narratives and historical context that will enrich your memories of this day.
An astronomy expert will also be on hand to describe the intricate celestial mechanics that result in a total solar eclipse, how astronomers predict when they’ll occur and where they’ll be visible, and the significance of this particular eclipse, which features the longest duration of totality in our lifetime – an astonishing 6 minutes and 22 seconds.
When the awe-inspiring eclipse of the century has ended, you return to your luxurious accommodation for two exclusive lectures – first with Dr. Hawass and then with Dr. El-Enany, who personally introduce you to the most recent discoveries and restoration work across Egypt. These enlightening sessions will delve deeper into the mysteries of ancient Egypt and the significance of the Lost Golden City.
