THE SPLENDOURS
OF ANCIENT EGYPT

US$6495

Explore the mysteries of Egypt on an exclusive 15-day, 14-night tour hosted by Ted Loukes. Included two private visits to the Great Pyramid and the Sphinx. A local expert in Egyptian history and archaeology will also be accompanying the group.

Ted Loukes is an independent researcher with a passion for ancient civilizations.
His fascination with Ancient Egypt began when he was ten years old with a visit to the British Museum and the Treasures of Tutankhamun, a fascination that has stayed with him.
In 2011, he started a blog focussing on various mysteries and unexplained stories, past and present, and came across the suggestion of a link between the pharaoh Akhenaten and the biblical Moses. This blog post grew into the beginnings of a book, and he knew he had to go to Egypt.
In December 2012 he arrived in Cairo, just in time for the prophesized end of the world. He was on a package tour, to be followed by a week on his own which included some time in Amarna. That was it, Egypt captured him, heart and soul.
He returned in 2013 to take photographs for his planned book about Moses and Akhenaten. After publishing Moses and Akhenaten : Brothers in Alms, in 2015, his passion for Egypt led to the creation in 2018 of GnT Tours.
His latest book Forty Days in Egypt in the Time of Corona was a result of getting stranded in Egypt as the world went into lockdown with Covid19.
