I had no idea what a great personal journey I was about to embark on when I organised our first tour to Egypt back in 1996. This tour initiated me into the "fine art" of coordinating spiritual and metaphysical themed tours to some of the most amazing places around the world….Egypt, Greece, Peru, Mexico, India, Bolivia….what an amazing 12 years it has been!!!! What a privilege and honour it is to be part of something so powerfully positive it changes people's lives.

Overseas Ground Operators, Travel Agents, Guides and Tour Facilitators all come together to make these tours as memorable as possible for those who participate and we thrive on the feedback we receive from our tour participants. Many travel with us time and time again and I would like to thank you all for your support. I have listed below some of the comments we have received over the years and I have also included some photos from various tours. The photos are placed on the webpage in random order and are not related to the comments above or below.

"...You cannot leave without profound personal changes. A must do." John W, Sydney.

"...The trip to Egypt touched the centre of my being and changed my life." Steven I, Sydney.

"...I knew before I left for Egypt that this journey was to be a gift." Vicki O, Sydney.

"...We laughed, we cried, we opened our minds.I came back physically bolder, more powerful in my purpose, confident to create, and mentally more alert." Ray W, Sydney.

"……the best journey I have ever experienced. Saw Egypt and its wonders in the best way and enjoyed every minute of it. It's a very special place & people. I will be coming back soon. Have to do it all over again…." Amanda M, Canberra

"..... Absolutely fantastic! It surpassed greatly anything I imagined it might be. I felt so privileged to be able to chant and meditate in the various temples and connect with the wonderful vibration of the ancient schools. It really has surprised me - the effect this journey has started within. I feel different on every level - with changes continuing mentally and mystically. There are no words descriptive enough to describe my experience while there - it was on such a deep inner level. Everyday was exciting with something completely different to experience - I was always surprised and in anticipation with what was next. Even though we had an itinerary and I've been there before - for some reason there seemed to be another level of Egypt to be experienced. Thank you Jo and Janne for such a well organized trip of a lifetime." Bronwyn F, Sydney

"...I absolutely loved this trip. All experiences have grown me personally in all areas spiritual, mental + physical. This was a very special trip. All members of the group brought with them their own very special energies which seemed to blend + intertwine magically from the very beginning of our joining. The journey we traveled together whilst individual, was also a journey meant to be traveled "together". This "group energy" made our experiences, particularly spiritual + mystical. I often felt the very powerful connection with the Divine particularly when we all focused on meditation, chanting, healing or even on the "mundane". Our group supported + cared for each other which was a wonderful experience on its own. I never once felt judgment or animosity from anyone - which was very nice! I feel changed somehow. I have not stopped looking at any information I can lay my hands on about Egypt. Particularly spiritually based. I am again pouring over "The Flower of Life" by Drunvalo Melchizedek with new awareness. This trip has been an essential step in my spiritual journey + mystical growth which will continue for some time to come. Thanks + heartfelt gratitude to both Jo + Janne for all they did taking care of us all!" Leone D, Sydney.

...I wasn't going to let anything hold me back for this exiting (maybe once in a lifetime) journey. At no time was I mentally or physically fatigued. And it goes without saying - Egypt is a land of mystic at every turn, and she surely didn't let me down! My over-all experience was that of wonder, excitement, fun and privilege. Privileged to have been present where Kings and Queens, slaves + Pharoes once stood + were buried. Privileged to have shared the experience with a really great group of people. If there was a Hall of Fame for Spritiual Tours to Egypt, Janne and Jo you'd have to be the inductees for this wonderful presentation you prepared for us. Bravo, well done!!!!" Jim M, QLD

"….For those people who are spiritually attuned to this ancient land, it is an uplifting and sweetly-scented journey of the soul. Physically demanding but spiritually awakening. In Egypt I laughed and cried and was inspired by the ancient peoples. I groaned with exhaustion and danced with joy. I walked with the Priests and Priestesses and gods and goddesses. I felt the energy and I felt the past. The ancient people whispered their secrets into my ear. When I stood still for a moment I always heard them" Claire B, South Australia

"…. I thank God for the opportunity to partake in this trip. The incredible connection I felt to the pyramids and certain temples brought out emotions and a strong feeling of coming home. I had an inner knowing that I was meant to do this trip, but my expectations were surpassed a hundred fold. Spiritually and mentally I feel I'm still assimilating all we did. I feel stronger and empowered and I feel I've had lots of clearing. Physically I feel we did a lot and could have used a couple of days laying in the sun. But I am glad I did all I did. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone that has a calling to Egypt." Rose F, Melbourne

"……For me the whole experience was very hard. I went through an array of emotions, but you know, I would not have had it any other way. People have to understand that trips like this one are going to be very challenging and hard. But in the end it is worth it because you gain some more wisdom into yourself…" Rebecca N, NSW

"….I found the trip everything I had hoped it would be. My reason for going was for the history and I was not disappointed. I did not have any expectations spiritually, but was prepared to open my mind when the need arose. Jo's meditations were wonderful and new to me and I looked forward to them in the evenings to recuperate after a hectic day. I felt the energy in the temples and tried to visualise what life was like 5000 years ago. I felt very close to the ancient Egyptians." Jan P, NSW

"....Egypt has changed my life forever and I need to return. I was struck by the need to simplify my life. The Nile was magical and its "life force" permeated my whole body. The journey brought "stillness" back to my spirit and I have been experiencing the most heightened meditations since I returned. The experience of the "King's Chamber" will live with me forever. I did feel that I was reconnecting with the Feminine Energy of Egypt. I felt the ancient and timeless energy at all of the sites we visited. I was so impressed with the people of Egypt. They are a beautiful race of people - so dedicated to their religion. This really impressed me. I lost all concept of time while I was in Egypt and this has continued since my return to Australia. I no longer wear a watch. To sum it all up Egypt was not just a journey to a fabulous country but a life changing experience for me". Shelley H, NSW

"........it was the journey within, the indescribable insperience and the powerful changes that have taken place in me at a cellular and DNA level. The changes in my mental attitude, the clearing of my emotions and the depth of feeling I experienced, are definitely beyond price. For the small pittance and effort it took to get to Egypt the rewards were so outstanding. So absolutely out of proportion to what I put into making the journey happen, this experience has really lifted my whole self and being to an extraordinary level." Christopher D, NSW

"……the whole tour was form me a dream come true. I loved how even though we had an itinerary we still did spontaneous things. I am still pinching myself that I really have been to Egypt after all those years of wanting to. I was just saying to Vicki, that everywhere I go I am seeing Isis. On the buses, in the "Sun", horses. The synchronicity has been amazing since getting back. I certainly have had a shift in consciousness. People are telling, I look well/wonderful since getting back" Janine C, Melbourne

"…..I felt + still feel a mysterious pull to Egypt + would love to return to visit the temples + pyramids again and again. I had unforgettable experiences through some of the meditations - especially hearing the voice + message from my guide. I am finding out that there's lots of clearing happening for me. My spiritual awareness has opened further and my willingness to dig in further into the sacred mysteries has strengthened…..Silvia A, Melbourne

"….I really had the most fabulous time - Egypt has been a source of inspiration to me for many years - to be able to travel there + meet up with a wonderful supportive group of people + have a spiritual focus as well as an historical focus, was for me, a perfect combination. I think I faced a few challenges - related to overcoming issues - and have worked through these - I believe that the healing process has continued upon my return to Australia. I think my Egypt "moment" at the Valley of the Kings was a very cleansing day for me. I think this day was connected with a balance that I had requested whilst visiting the Temple of Edfu the previous day. The universe certainly assists when we ask!! For me Egypt is one of those places where an experience can seem magnified - it really defies adjectives! It seems colossal, magical, ancient, modern, scary, beautiful + harsh, all at the same time. I will certainly be back. In-Shallah. Marianne M, Queensland

"…..Kings Chamber was awesome and the Nile cruise was fantastic. I was overwhelmed with my experiences…..I have wanted to see Egypt since I was about 13, so to actually be there was like a dream. When I try to explain what my trip was like I cannot explain why I have changed. I want to return as soon as possible…..Julie D, Melbourne

"….Philae - just magical, Karnak peaceful + loving. The Kings Chamber - powerful, spiritual, emotional……this was the most amazing experience of my life. I am a different person and I am still finding it difficult to settle into my old life. I had the most beautiful spiritual + mystical experiences and they are still continuing. My life has changed and with preparation time my physical life will change. I no longer seek the things I was - I have been shown a new path + have also been given knowledge and help to make this possible....". Lois H, New Zealand

"....I don't imagine I could find another country so mystical + spiritually awakening. Was just wonderful. The trip was very full on - I loved this aspect. I didn't want even to sleep - I did not want to miss a single moment of this experience. Personally, I just beamed + had no problems with the mental or physical aspects…..I loved the lot + surprised myself when I did not want to ever come home…..Well as you may have noticed I HAD THE BEST TRIP. Everyday I kept saying "we are so blessed" or "I am so happy here"….we had a great group of people + all got on so well. Many personalities, but an excellent mix to make for a very happy and memorable trip. So many laughs - we were truly truly blessed to have Sarwat as our guide. He gave so much of himself - way above his duties + truly became our real friend - not just a guide. I plant o go back (next year I hope) to live in Egypt for a year. Hopefully, I'll teach English to those beautiful children and in some small way make their future a little better…..It was an amazing journey for me on so many levels. Susie S, QLD

"...AWESOME is all I have to say!..." Vicki M, NSW

"…It was fantastic - on all levels. Thank you for organising it the way you did. Pyramids & the museum at the end was perfect as we had more understanding by then. LOVED the personal time at places - felt stepped back in time. The highlight is this unique aspect of not just feeling you were one of many tourists. I feel "different" spiritually - new focus. Great group, meals great, everybody friendly. Well organised…" Barbara H, Qld

"...I loved my camel rides. I loved being there. Didn't want to come home!..." Sash W, QLD

"…I wouldn't have wanted to see Egypt in any other way! The group was fantastic!!! The trip was beautifully planned and executed with flexibility, which helped things flow according to our pace and needs. Physically we were pampered, mentally we had the best teacher in Anne + Sarwat, It was fascinating to be exposed to both their perspectives. But most of all I walked away from the trip with the most amazing feeling of spiritual growth through the insight and relations I got through exposure through the mystical energies. I gained understanding about things that had puzzled me for a few years, things also that I have been working on for the past few months. My exposure to the Goddess energy at the temples of Isis, Sekhmet and Hatshepsut as well as the "male" energy at the Valley of the Kings and some of the other temples, gave me a greater understanding of how these energies work, why they need to be balanced and why the Goddess energy and the Divine Feminine are so crucial to restoring harmony, peace and healing to the earth. I received such huge confirmations and understanding that on my return everyone has noticed that I have had a dynamic energy shift. I wouldn't have missed this trip for all the world, it has been an incredible experience…" Kathy H, QLD
