Goway Offers Total-Eclipse Viewing on New 2027 Egypt Itinerary

Goway Offers Total-Eclipse Viewing on New 2027 Egypt Itinerary

Tailor-made travel specialist Goway has announced a new trip offering travellers the opportunity to see a total solar eclipse from the heart of Egypt next year.  

The operator’s new 10-day Chasing Totality: Egypt & Red Sea Solar Eclipse combines one of the world’s most spectacular natural phenomena, the total solar eclipse on August 2, 2027, with the historical wonders of Egypt — the land that pioneered sun worship in the ancient world. 

Goway’s new itinerary includes:

  • An exclusive total solar eclipse viewing event from Akassia Marsa Alam’s Roman-style theatre, with over five minutes of total darkness. 
  • 5 nights at a deluxe resort in Marsa Alam on the Red Sea. 
  • 4 nights at a deluxe hotel in Cairo. 
  • Egyptologist-led tours of the Grand Egyptian Museum, the Pyramids of Giza, and Khan el-Khalili Bazaar among other Cairo landmarks. 

As an added incentive, for the month of September, travel advisors can earn $50 bonus rewards with the GowayPro Loyalty Program on all bookings to Egypt. Visit GowayPro.com for full details. 

“While many Nile cruise eclipse programs are already sold out or offer extremely limited availability, Goway has developed an exciting alternative on the Red Sea coast that travel advisors can sell with confidence,” says Bronwyn Hodge, Goway’s VP, Africa & Middle East. 

“Rather than treating the eclipse as a standalone sightseeing event, Goway’s Chasing Totality: Egypt & Red Sea Solar Eclipse combines Cairo’s iconic landmarks with five nights at a Red Sea resort and an exclusive hosted viewing experience at Akassia Marsa Alam’s Roman-style theatre. The result is a more relaxed and immersive way to experience this extraordinary event and explore the wonders of Egypt.” 

Goway has secured a limited allocation for this highly anticipated event and suggests travel advisors should book early.
