Totality in Middle Egypt – Eclipse 2027, Assiut & Cairo
On 2 August 2027, the Moon slides in front of the Sun and the Nile Valley falls into an eerie silver twilight – stars at midday, a sudden chill in the air, and the shimmering corona blazing where the Sun used to be.
This 7-day journey places you right in the path of totality in Assiut, the heart of Middle Egypt: far from the crowds, with time to prepare, to watch and to let the experience sink in.
Before and after the great day, discover the painted rock tombs of Beni Hassan and end your journey in Cairo at the spectacular Grand Egyptian Museum.

Please note that international and domestic flights are not included in the quoted price. Airlines typically release their flight schedules and fares approximately one year in advance; therefore, flights for July - August 2027 will become available around September 2026.
Should you wish to receive an offer for international or domestic flights, we kindly ask you to complete the flight request form on our website. Once flight options become available, we will prepare and forward an offer for your review.
Please be aware that submitting the request form does not constitute a booking order. We will only proceed with a flight reservation upon receiving your explicit written approval.
Furthermore, please note that flights are an external service provided solely by the airline, and Dabuka does not have control over airline-related matters. Any delays, schedule changes, or baggage issues fall under the responsibility of the operating carrier. We therefore recommend obtaining appropriate travel insurance should you wish to be covered for such circumstances.
We are also happy to provide personal consultations by appointment to help you choose the observation location that best suits your preferences and ensure an optimal eclipse experience.
