In the ancient beliefs, Hathor was the consort of the god of daylight, ruler of the west, and protector or the underworld. In the manner of wise desert wayfarers, we'll leave before dawn to take advantage of cool temperatures. Our air-conditioned van will take us through timeless Nileside villages, where life revolves around the irrigation and harvest of crops. Finally, we'll reach the temple precincts. We'll take note of the unusually deep tombs, and pass under the celebrated Zodiac, in a chapel dedicated to Osiris. (Denderah is the traditional site of his rebirth.) Our full day will also include a visit to Abydos, traditional home of Osiris, god of the underworld, and a stopping point on the journey of wayfaring souls.

Encounter your African heritage, not only in Ghana, Senegal, but yes, in Egypt.

Sometimes passed by in the quest for roots, Egypt flows from the heart of Africa, nourished not only by the waters of the Nile, but also by the peoples and cultures of its continent. Egypt’s traditional borders stretch far to the south, into the heart of the continent. The Nubians, so evidently African, built the great temples of Luxor and Abu Simbel. Tall and mighty, they embodied the ideals of the kingdom in the personal guard of the Pharaohs and the presidential guard of today. Cast a glance at the peoples of Egypt, and you’ll see Africa, not only in Nubia, but in every walk of life, up to the presidency of Anwar Sadat.

Don’t overlook the obvious! You’ll be welcomed in Egypt, and you’ll feel at home, as part of the African family
