As we live in Egypt and know the country very well, and based on our previous experiences during the 2006 eclipse in Salloum and the opening of the GEM in November 2025, we are well aware of the challenges of observing the eclipse in Luxor. Luxor is expected to be extremely crowded, and last-minute changes by authorities could affect access or viewing conditions.
Therefore, we recommend also alternative observation locations to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience. We continuously monitor developments and work closely with leading astronomers and universities to select the best possible sites.
For 2 August 2027, we will offer multiple alternative observation locations, allowing participants to choose the spot that best suits their preferences. This ensures that everyone can fully enjoy the eclipse, away from the crowds and potential disruptions in Luxor.
For those who still wish to experience the eclipse in Luxor we are happy to provide our efforts.
