Before you choose

Common questions about the packages

The full tour pages contain detailed itineraries. These answers cover the main differences travelers usually ask about first.

Do all three packages include the total solar eclipse?

Yes. All three packages are built around the total solar eclipse on 2 August 2027. The main differences are the number of travel days, nights and activities before and after totality.

Which package is the best value?

The three-day package provides the strongest balance for many travelers because it includes two desert nights and more White Desert activities without adding a hotel night. The best choice still depends on your available time and preferred comfort level.

What is special about the four-day package?

It begins one day earlier and includes a Bahariya Oasis sightseeing day plus an air-conditioned night at Aliyah Lodge before the two White Desert nights.

What do children pay?

Children aged 0–6 travel free and pay no deposit. Children aged 7–17 pay 50% of the adult package price and a $150 deposit. Every child still requires an available seat and must travel with a parent or legal guardian.

How much is the booking deposit?

The standard deposit is $300 for each adult, $150 for each child aged 7–17 and $0 for children aged 0–6. Every paid deposit is credited toward the final package price.

Can I change the pickup or make the vehicles private?

Yes. Use Customize This Package to request another pickup location, private city transportation, a private 4x4, extra nights, a preferred hotel or other practical changes. Custom requests are reviewed and quoted before payment.

Are solar eclipse glasses included?

Solar eclipse viewing glasses are not included in the standard package price and are planned to be available separately. Guests must follow approved solar-viewing safety guidance during the partial phases.
