On August 2, 2027, the Moon will turn day into night across North Africa and the Middle East. It will be the longest total eclipse over land this century, with up to 6 minutes and 23 seconds of darkness near Luxor. Our solar eclipse tours place you directly in the path of totality, with expert guides, carefully scouted viewing sites and every detail handled, so all you need to do is look up. In Egypt, watch the sky darken above ancient Thebes on our 10-day Egypt eclipse journey with a Nile cruise. Then explore the royal tombs of the Valley of the Kings, just across the Nile from where totality lasts longest. Prefer desert horizons? Chasing Totality: Morocco Eclipse Adventure 2027 pairs the souks of Marrakech with clear Saharan skies. In Tunisia, follow the shadow from Tunis to the dunes of the Sahara. For a Middle Eastern view, choose a discovery tour of Saudi Arabia or a short break in Jeddah on the Red Sea. Already planning beyond 2027? On July 22, 2028, totality sweeps across Australia, from the remote Kimberley and Darwin’s outback to the harbour city of Sydney.

View TripTwo of the most spectacular total solar eclipses of the century are coming, and the journey to witness them begins long before the sky goes dark. On August 2, 2027, the eclipse of the century crosses Morocco, Tunisia, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia, delivering up to 6 minutes and 23 seconds of totality near Luxor—the longest over land until 2114. Less than a year later, on July 22, 2028, the Moon’s shadow sweeps across Australia, from the Kimberley and Darwin region to Dubbo and Sydney, giving Sydney its first total solar eclipse since 1857. Every season plays its part: autumn is for choosing your eclipse, winter for securing your place, spring for final preparations, and summer for the unforgettable moment when day turns into night.
Spring is the season of final preparations. From March through May, with the 2027 eclipse only months away, it is time to confirm every detail of your trip, from flights and transfers to your viewing location on eclipse day. Travelers heading to Australia in 2028 can use this time to finalize long-haul flights and secure the last places on small-group tours. Gather your eclipse essentials: certified ISO 12312-2 eclipse glasses for everyone in your group, solar filters for cameras and binoculars, and the right clothing—light, breathable layers for the summer heat of North Africa and Arabia, or warm layers for crisp winter mornings in the Australian outback. Photographers can practice their settings and plan their shots well before the big day. Spring is also a good moment to add extra experiences before or after the eclipse—a Nile cruise in Egypt, a Saharan camp in Morocco or Tunisia, a Red Sea escape in Saudi Arabia, or Sydney Harbour and the Kimberley’s Bungle Bungle Range in Australia.
Summer brings the main events. On Monday, August 2, 2027, the Moon’s shadow races across North Africa and the Middle East, creating the longest total solar eclipse over land this century. Luxor and the Valley of the Kings enjoy about 6 minutes and 22 seconds of darkness, Jeddah nearly 6 minutes, Tunisia more than 5 minutes, and Tangier close to 5 minutes. The dry August climate offers some of the best weather prospects along the path, while our tours plan early-morning sightseeing, air-conditioned transport, and shaded viewing spots to keep you comfortable in the heat. On Saturday, July 22, 2028, it is Australia’s turn. While the Northern Hemisphere enjoys summer, Australia is in its mild, dry winter—perfect for clear skies and comfortable days. Totality begins in the Kimberley, reaching up to 5 minutes and 10 seconds, then crosses the Northern Territory, Queensland, and New South Wales. Dubbo sees about 3 minutes and 51 seconds, and shortly before 2pm local time, Sydney goes dark for about 3 minutes and 49 seconds—the city’s first total eclipse since 1857. As the sky darkens, the temperature drops, stars and planets appear, and the Sun’s glowing corona shines around a black disk. Whether you choose 2027, 2028, or both, witnessing totality is a once-in-a-lifetime experience you will remember long after the Sun returns.
Autumn is the season when smart eclipse chasers begin planning. With two total solar eclipses on the horizon, September through November is the ideal time to compare destinations and decide where you want to stand when the Moon covers the Sun. For August 2, 2027, choose Egypt, the heart of the eclipse, where Luxor enjoys about 6 minutes and 22 seconds of totality above its ancient temples; Morocco, where Tangier sees nearly 5 minutes of darkness; Tunisia, with more than 5 minutes over Roman ruins and Saharan skies; or Saudi Arabia, where Jeddah and the Red Sea coast enjoy nearly 6 minutes. For July 22, 2028, head to Australia: watch about 3 minutes and 51 seconds of totality at Dubbo with expert astronomers on our Sydney Eclipse tour, or explore Darwin and the wild Kimberley, where the path of totality reaches its longest duration of up to 5 minutes and 10 seconds. Starting early gives you the widest choice of tours and the best-located hotels.
Winter is the season to lock in your eclipse journey. From December through February, demand for tours along the paths of totality grows quickly, and the best-located hotels, Nile cruises, desert camps, Red Sea resorts, and Australian outback lodges are reserved by travelers from around the world. Booking during these months gives you the widest selection of itineraries, from a short 4-day eclipse break in Jeddah and a 6-day Darwin and Kimberley adventure to 8-day journeys in Sydney and Tunisia and 10-day tours of Egypt and Morocco that combine the eclipse with iconic sightseeing. It also leaves plenty of time to arrange flights, travel insurance, and any visas your destination requires. Winter is also the perfect time to learn what you will see—the diamond ring, Baily’s beads, and the glowing solar corona—so that when totality arrives, you know exactly where to look.
Everything you need to know before traveling to witness the total solar eclipses of August 2, 2027 and July 22, 2028, from totality times and weather to eye safety and smart packing.
Wear certified ISO 12312-2 eclipse glasses during every partial phase and remove them only during totality.
Fit certified solar filters on cameras, phones, binoculars, and telescopes, and rehearse your settings before eclipse day.
Pack light clothing, a hat, and sunscreen for August heat in 2027, and warm layers for chilly winter mornings in Australia in 2028.
Confirm entry rules early (most visitors need a visa or ETA for Australia) and choose insurance that covers cancellations and delays.
