Seize this rare opportunity to join an intimate group of Gaians and Erich von Däniken on an expedition that unveils the layers of Ancient Egyptian history like you’ve never been told before.
On this extraordinary tour of Egypt, you will embark on a quest to explore Egypt pre-10,500 BC, a time when an advanced, little-known civilization thrived in this land. Däniken, world-renowned expert on ancient civilizations, will join you for the first three days of this adventure to Cairo, the Giza Plateau and Sakkara/Dashur, and captivate you with a special nighttime lecture. The lecture will delve deeply into the pre-diluvian time frame and explore the potential connections to a higher civilization or an interplanetary race.
As you venture forth and explore this ancient world, the evidence becomes clearer and more compelling. This civilization, though now lost to the ages, left behind enduring remnants of their existence. It was as if they vanished, leaving their legacy to be discovered by those who would come later. Are you going to be one of them?
With millennia-old history and boasting some of the world's most extraordinary ancient wonders, including the Great Pyramid of Giza and the Great Sphinx, Cairo is the bustling capital of Egypt. It showcases its timeless charm and significance as a cultural, historical, and political hub.
Luxor is iconic for its unparalleled wealth of ancient Egyptian temples and monuments, making it a living museum of ancient history and civilization. Known as the "world's greatest open-air museum," Luxor's historical richness and grandeur continue to awe and inspire visitors from around the world.
Known for its status as the final resting place of numerous ancient Egyptian pharaohs, including the famous Tutankhamun, this ancient necropolis holds great historical significance. The discovery of stunning tombs filled with treasures continues to captivate the world's imagination.
The Giza Plateau is marked by a number of extraordinary megaliths in addition to the pyramids, most notably the Great Sphinx. It also contains important clues to an alternative history as researchers have identified the unmistakable signs of water erosion on the side of the bedrock in which the Sphinx was carved, hinting at its pre-diluvian origin.
Precisely aligned within a fraction of a degree to Earth’s cardinal directions, the Great Pyramid is an unprecedented architectural marvel. While its origin has been attributed to the Egyptian Old Kingdom Pharaoh Khufu (aka Cheops), no remains were ever found, shrouding the original construction of this colossal monument in further mystery.

Mohamed Ibrahim is an Egyptologist, hieroglyphics expert, and tour guide whose passion for ancient Egypt led him to begin researching this enigmatic place and time in history, looking for answers to deeper questions that mainstream Egyptology doesn’t explore. Born in Memphis, Egypt, Ibrahim grew up around the mysterious ancient pyramid complexes of the Giza plateau, Saqqara, Dahshur, and Abusir. He is an expert on the legendary star gates, plus healing and energy modalities from ancient Egypt. But his favorite research to share encompasses the lost technology and civilization of his home country. As a tour guide, Ibrahim has led hundreds of tours accompanied by other world-famous experts.
