As an incentive to early sign-ups, Adept Expeditions is giving $300 off the tour price for people who sign up by Feb 29. adeptexpeditions.com/tours/egyptian-empire-egypt-tour/

[@Jonnygurudesigns]

Is there a limit to how many slots you are offering? Also, if I pay the deposit but also want to pay for my own room, would I need to pay for the single room rate at the time of paying for the deposit?

[@WorldofAntiquity]

@@Jonnygurudesigns We have a cap of 28 people. And yes, if you want a room to yourself, you would need to pay the single room supplement. However, this applies only to the hotels. On the boat, you would need to room with someone else, because the boat isn't big enough for single occupancies.

Wow! Educational tours with an actual scholarly academic! What a fun, interesting and terrific opportunity!

[@StefanMilo]

This looks so good!

[@Anyextee]

An amazing, ground-breaking adventure in upper Egypt with Dr. David Miano! Imagine being part of a unique, immersive “course” where you get to explore some hidden gems, places that not many have the chance to see, and all of this while traveling on the nile in style ! It's not just a trip; it's a once-in-a-lifetime experience with exclusive VIP access to these incredible sites. All part of season 6 in his remarkable video series. Can't wait!

[@Jonnygurudesigns]

You're going to be traveling with the group too right?

[@williamwilson6499]

I checked out the link for the trip. It’s a very good deal for what’s included. I’ve been to Egypt three times, but still considering signing up.

[@Anyextee]

@@williamwilson6499 While these exclusive VIP luxury two-week tours are usually costly due to operational expenses, this one is offered at incredibly competitive rates. Moreover, you won't find another tour operator providing access to the often overlooked but significant site of Nekhen. Dr. David Miano has curated a truly special experience for you. He has forgone profits, sparing no expenses to have us craft a stand out tour for you, a true hands-experience once-in-a-lifetime adventure. I’m personally, very excited for this tour.

[@cattymajiv]

@@williamwilson6499 I've been there too, and I agree, the price is good for what you are getting. Personally, I don't need the luxury, and prefer to do without it, but since it is such a unique opportunity, I would go in a heartbeat if I could.

Oh Dr.David this is absolutely fantastical,I cried as I listened to all stops and features along the itinerary. Although I wouldn't mind roughing it,an invite to Seti the I's Hotel just sounds too grand to pass up ;-).Also I hope there will be no need for the services of Mr Poirot on the cruise along the Nile! I can just imagine Merenptah arranging an ambush to fight off the sea people's tribes...no matter which part sailed on this trip.these are the images it all evokes for me.The time is approaching so quickly my bday this year.

[@timfogelson7076]

This sounds great.....but I don't have the cash for it.

[@itsnot_stupid_ifitworks]

Crazy busy trip but the Tomb of Rekhmire should be considered. The extensive depictions of all the various trades and workers from baking to smelting & stone carving etc doesn't get enough attention.

[@garros]

In my 3-unit ancient history studies for the last two years of high school in NSW Australia in 1994-1995 (3-unit was the most advanced course available, an extension to the 2-unit course for what was then the Higher School Certificate and calculation of the TER - tertiary entrance rank - which has all changed since then, I believe) we studied the reign of Hatshepsut, and I remember learning about the temple at Karnak amongst many other things. What an amazing thing that you are going with a group. I would LOVE this. I hope you're still doing it when I have the money to do it. I'd be in, in an instant! Matt (Syd, AU)

[@glenparry5045]

Quick correction, as someone seems to have provided a duff image. The Movenpick Aswan, actually shows the Sofitel Old Cataract. Interesting idea, (sadly too expensive for my pay grade, the usual North American thing of not including international flights is a bit of a bummer) especially visiting Nekhen and Gebel es Silsila. When visiting the Kings' Valley, as you're concentrating on the Empire, might be worth seeing if you can arrange special access to KV34, the tomb of Thothmoses III, which has been closed for restoration and renewal of the stairs and walkways for the last few years. Not one of the brightly painted tombs, that post date Thothmoses IV (& his only has 2 painted walls, but a couple of hugely important graffiti), but the earliest tomb that opens to visitors, and a stark contrast with his status as "the Bronze Age Napoleon". Horemheb's KV57, which only intermittently opens to the public would be another good one, as it was the first attempt to decorate a KV tomb in raised relief and, as it was unfinished, shows every stage of the decorating process. Nice to see the private tombs of the Theban Necropolis getting a look in; so many people get annoyed that they don't see the "daily life" scenes, when only visiting the Kings' and Queens' Valleys; some of the Dynasty XVIII artwork is exquisite. Do try to fit in Deir el Medina, which was home to the workmen who carved and decorated the KV tombs. They were an extraordinarily literate group for their times, and the 1000s of ostraca they left make this the best recorded ancient population thus far known. Regardless, I wish you luck with this and I'm sure everyone partaking will have both an enjoyable and informative trip.

[@cattymajiv]

When I was around 35 I had a bit of money from selling my house, and I knew I might never get another chance, so I asked my friend (who was then my future partner) to go with me to Egypt. We spent a year researching and planning it, and by the time we went he was my partner, and it WAS the trip of a lifetime. I knew I might never be able to do anything like it again, so I savored every minute! He and I also spent many great years together. I never have been able to travel like that again, so I'm so incredibly glad that I grabbed that chance! It was the highlight of my life! I would love so much to go on this trip too. To see the south again, which was by far my favorite part, and revisit Abydos. And to see may places we didn't see last time. I wish I could do it, but I'll have to be content watching the videos, and imagining I'm with them. I wish them all a wonderful trip. There is no place on earth as magical as southern Egypt!

I wish I could do this. so much. Ever since I was little I dreamed of going to Egypt. I've always been drawn to the art, architecture, jewelry, mythology and history. Thoth has always been my favorite god. I wrote the beginning of a screenplay in college that took the 2 main characters to Ancient Egypt. I went to the MET before COVID and I spent 4 hours just in their Egyptian area. I took lots of pictures. Oh man. I really want to do this! What an amazing adventure! If only, If only. I'd just love to see all those places.

[@cattymajiv]

If there is any way you can manage it, do it! I am not a schill for Dr Miano. Just a person who was there and who would nearly kill to join this group! The best part of Egypt by far is the south. It's magical! Do go if you can. I see others who have been agree with me that for what you get, the price is very good. The meals for 1 week on board the boat will be included. And even from N America, I doubt the airfare would be much more than around $1500. It could even be less than that. I'd go in a heartbeat if I had not just bought a car for $12,000. I'm flat broke now, and heartbroken over the timing.

Spring and fall are by far the best times to visit Egypt. They hit it perfectly with November. Summer is hot and crowded, and winter isn't as warm as I what I prefer. What time of year could you go?

[@Bighawkeye46]

@@cattymajiv Just reread my comment and it reads a bit more absolute than I intended - I wouldn't be able to go at that time of year 'this year.' I could potentially make time for a trip in Winter or Spring 2025 - but due to work things 2024 doesn't work for me regardless of the time of year. I went on a trip to Israel/Palestine back in mid January of 2017 and really found the climate to be pretty mild compared to what I grew up with in the midwest USA during that same time of year

Sounds like a great time and im sure Id meet a lit of interesting people among the other attendees.

[@cattymajiv]

Yes. It's a dream come true. And having been there I can confirm it's a good price for an all inclusive luxury trip. Normally tips alone for the whole trip would be very costly. Every step you take you are dogged by people asking you "Baksheesh? Baksheesh?", which means alms, or charity, but also tips. Here you will be protected from that, for the most part, although you will still hear it! Normally your tour guide and egyptologist (whether this is 2 people or combined in 1 person), would recieve a very large tip, for their very large time committment, and the fact that all Egyptian tour guides must attend 2 years of college to become a licenced guide.

Hi, I know its not related on the subject to hand but I have a question / suggestion regards the great pyramid. The so called queens chamber and its shafts that don't reach the outside. Could it be as simple as the original pyramid design was enlarged so they abandoned the queens chamber built instead the kings chamber and the shafts were plugged and forgotten. It seems to me to be a lot simpler explanation than all the weird ideas you see on some u tube videos. Could you maybe consider this in one of your future features. Thanks,

That sounds very reasonable. Many plans were changed and adjusted in the construction of buildings, from the pyramids right up until now.

Ask her to read my reply to the last comment. The comment of krcmaine. Or better yet ask her to read all the comments up to yours. The people who have been there, including me, have all given their approval of the price and the itinerary. The itinerary is spectacular! And the south of Egypt is magical! I would not miss this for the world if I could lay my hands on the money. Sadly I just bought a car with my last $12,000. If only I'd gotten a cheaper one! Your wife is a very lucky woman to have a husband who wants her to join him, and have a magical trip like this one. I can only wish for the same. I sincerely hope the 2 of you do go. You will never regret it! Take along a thin white scarf for each of you, about 3 feet by 3 feet (or a bit less). It matches all clothing, male or female. It can be used as a hat and as a protector of shoulders and arms from the sun, but can also be stuffed in a pocket when not needed, or tied onto a belt, beltloop, purse strap, etc. Of everything I took with me to Egypt, that cheap white scarf was by far the most useful thing of all! They can also be bought in the outdoor markets there, or souks, for just pennies, if you get a chance to go to one. The least useful thing I took was a bottle of Gran Marnier Liquor. It never got drank, and I lugged it around Egypt for 3 weeks, only to break it all over our souvenirs, right on our doorstep, when returning home! The memories you will have of that magical place will be so incredible! Tell your wife for me that she will never regret it!

Today one can simply come to online channels like this - or go to channels on cable television - to see docos about the world and nature etc.. = yet it was not always so folks. When I was young there was no cable television with channels like NatGeo etc. - and there was no internet as today. What there used to be for people who could not travel around the world to places was = _"travelogues"._ A travelogue would come to your local town at some arena or whatever and you would pay to go watch narrated films of wondrous places around the world. Think the movie _"News of the World"_ whereas an orator traveled around to rural towns and people paid to be informed of what was reflected in newspapers of the time. Times change - which is fine of course. Enjoy that you can simply log on to see many things you might not otherwise be able to do. This is how one not only learns about the wonders of the world = they learn......

This is off-topic, but I was thinking that when large 3 or 4 foot blocks are next to each other and the seams fit so tightly, is it possible that they were cut from a larger excavated block like the unfinished obelisk and thats why they fit so precisely? If they excavated a block that was 60 feet long, and you cut it into roughly 3 foot pieces and built a wall out of 20 blocks. The seams would match perfectly.

if a way is found to rub the stones together they will fit like a glove eventually
