This Sacred Journey to Egypt with Maari is a trip of a lifetime!
Together we will explore the marvels, mythology and mystery of ancient Egypt. You are invited to open your heart and to really feel the magic of Egypt.
We begin with a series of ZOOM meetings so that our group begins to get to know one another, setting a safe and sacred space for our time ahead. Maari will also teach mediations, share ceremonies and describe mythology so that you are preparing for the most awesome moments of standing in front of these magnificent holy structures.
Preparation for a Sacred Journey to Egypt offers a wealth of gifts, setting the stage for deep personal transformation. As you prepare to travel, you begin to align your intentions, clearing space within yourself for the insights, healing, and growth that will unfold. The process of reflection and intention-setting brings clarity, allowing you to enter the journey with an open heart and a receptive mind. In connecting with the ancient energy of Egypt before you even arrive, you start to feel the profound shifts happening within, deepening your sense of purpose. This sacred preparation itself becomes a gift, helping you to enter the journey with a sense of readiness, trust, and sacred reverence for what lies ahead.
While we are in Egypt, we have full support of a group escort who takes care of all the logistics so that we can be fully present to the magic unfolding. We have an Egyptologist who travels with us for the entire journey, sharing expert knowledge of the ancient culture, history, and symbolism.
Sailing the Nile on a dahabeya is a serene and magical experience, offering a unique, intimate way to connect with Egypt’s ancient river. The dahabeya, a traditional wooden sailboat, glides gracefully across the water, providing a peaceful escape as you witness the timeless beauty of the riverbanks. With gentle winds filling the sails, you’re carried through Egypt’s landscapes, passing lush greenery, ancient temples, and quiet villages. The calm of the journey allows for deep reflection, connection, and an immersive experience in the heart of Egypt’s history. It’s a voyage not only through space but through time, offering a sacred and tranquil way to absorb the essence of the Nile.
All of this AND we stay at the best hotels, eat delicious local food, visit local, visit artists and artisans with so many opportunities for joy, dancing and fun!

Testimonial from Lynne Nilson, Egypt 2024:
Sacred travel to Egypt - If you are looking for a typical touristy trip, don't go on this trip. If you are looking for a wonderful, expansive, energetic/spiritual trip DO GO ON THIS TRIP! Maari Falsetto the group leader holds very sacred intentions for the entire group before, during, and after the trip. I have done lots of group travel and I have not experienced this type of clear intention from other group leaders. Even if you have zero experience with meditation, ceremonies at sacred sites, energy work, or LOTS of experience I highly recommend traveling to Egypt with Maari. It will change your life in unimaginable ways. I'm still integrating the beautiful shifts in my life. The approximately two-week trip is jam-packed with visiting the sites having sacred/energetic experiences. And yes, we were around lots of tourists for many of the sites we visited AND we were able to experience MANY sites with just our group. We either visited that site very early before it was open to tourists or visited later after the site was closed for the day. And the one full week sailing down the Nile is, well, just magical. If you are in the inquiry about Egypt, I'd say your soul is calling you to go! Listen and do it!
Testimonial from Zoe Dailey, Egypt 2024:
My trip with Inner Alchemy Transformative Travel was all that was promised and more. What took it over the top for me was quite simply Maari Falsetto. She is a gifted Healer who meets each individual eye to eye and heart to heart, able to recognize, Presence, and call forth the various healing and celebratory opportunities that arise naturally during a trip like this and encouraging growth individually and collectively. This in the midst of teaching, building community, leading ceremony, coordinating logistics, taking exquisite care of herself (and encouraging us to), and also having fun swimming, sunning, sharing food and playing together. Know that this is a journey where you will be exquisitely held.
Testimonial from Brendan Leyva, Egypt 2024:
Led by our amazing guide, Maari, we embarked on a spiritual journey through Egypt, visiting sacred sites and temples that have stood for millennia, each holding profound energy and history.
Maari's presence as a ceremonialist and leader was truly inspiring. Her deep reverence for the sacredness of each place we visited was palpable and she effortlessly guided us through meditations and sacred circles, creating a space for us to connect with the ancient wisdom and energies of Egypt.
One of the most pleasant surprises of the journey was the sense of community that quickly formed among our group. Despite being strangers at the beginning, we bonded over our shared experiences and the profound moments we shared at each sacred site. This sense of connection and camaraderie added an extra layer of depth to the trip, making it truly unforgettable.
I am deeply grateful to Maari and Inner Alchemy for creating such a profound and enriching experience. This journey to Egypt will forever hold a special place in my heart, and I cannot recommend Inner Alchemy's trips enough to anyone seeking a deep, transformative travel experience.
Testimonial from Eric S., Egypt 2024:
I initially signed up for the Egypt trip out of curiosity and adventure. Only later during our half dozen trip prep zoom meetings did I begin to feel the pull to open up and embrace the healing opportunities available in Egypt. For myself I had a profound experience of self-forgiveness. This was not a conscious intention I set for the journey, it was my heart's intention. Wow!
Our sacred group of travelers quickly coalesced into an incredibly respectful, energetic, fun, and loving community. Friendship was easy and sincere. I feel like I made a dozen new friends for life.
Throughout the journey Maari maintained our scared circle of travelers with integrity. She led the group in an array of grounding, connecting, and meanigful ceremonies. Highlights here include reverence and celebration at Sakkara, the Temple of Ptah at Karnak, the King's Chamber inside the Great Pyramid, and between the paws of the Sphinx.
Personal fav's include the drive into the Sahara, Abu Simbel Temples, Nile River boat tour, and our fierce and loving Egyptologist Heba. Along with her knowledge of ancient Egypt she was able to provide astute insights into modern Egyptian customs and culture.
Deep gratitude to Maari and Inner Alchemy for orchestrating such an amazing and transformational sacred journey.
Testimonial from David Griswold, Egypt 2023:
"Trip of a lifetime" doesn't even begin to capture it! Egypt wasn't even on my bucket list, and now I can't wait to go back. The trip was a perfect balance between inner work and exposure to some of the most iconic places and objects in human history. In fact, each aspect served to reinforce the other. Nothing prepares you for the shear scale of what you will encounter. Each sacred site has its own majesty and personality, and you can't help but come away profoundly affected. The journey begins with a number of zoom meetings with others on the trip where you get an introduction to both the spiritual and practical aspects of travel to Egypt. You hit the ground well prepared, and the pre-trip advice was spot on....I am deeply grateful to have been able to take this journey with Inner Alchemy Sacred Travel."
Testimony from Suzanne Bisgaard, Egypt 2023:
Fantastic Tour! Maari fostered a community over the 4 months prior to travel that grew to feel like family on the tour. Maari prepared us all for Egypt spiritually, mentally and physically. She did a wonderful job helping us connect with Egyption Gods and Goddeses ahead of the travel that allowed us to go deeper at each temple.
This tour is full of incredible experiences. It is layered in value. You enjoy seeing the temples but the value comes in the connection to Egypt that Maari facilitates through ritual and meditation. The exceptional presentation of egyption history, mythology, and culture from the our tours Egyptologist Mona.
And, the tour company Quest is perfection in their logistics, connections in the community and government that allow deeper access and private access to these historic sites. The difference is palpable and so appreciated when you are blessed with quiet and peace and free of the tourist hoards.
I loved the opportunity to get to know Ahmed D our Egyptian Fixer and learn about the Quest family. I marveled at how adept Ahmed was at managing through checkpoints and temple staff to protect our tours goals.
I appreciated Ahmed Quest tour lead) and Mona (our Egyptologist) willingness to discuss any and all topics even sensitive issues to understand how politics, religion and history make the current landscape of Egypt.
It was a wonderful experience and I wholeheartedly recommend this tour with Maari Falsetto and Inner Alchemy Sacred Travel.
Testimonial from Simone McClure, Egypt 2022:
”This trip has opened me up to a whole new perspective on life. Being able to experience everything with such beautiful people left a mark that will last a lifetime. I left the trip feeling inspired and ready to see the world and connect with people. I left feeling more confident in myself and my life choices, knowing that was exactly where I was meant to be in that moment.”
Testimony from Annalise Johnson, Egypt 2022:
“This grand adventure to Egypt was so much more than I had expected it to be. I have traveled all over the world- to over 25 countries and this experience was like no other. Seeing and learning about these incredible sacred sites with a group of wonderful, genuine, and fun people was truly a once in a lifetime experience. Two weeks later and I still feel like I am processing all of the epic stuff we got to see and do. It hard for me to put into words how much this trip impacted my life. When I came home I felt refreshed. Not just a regular relaxation or refreshed feeling like from a standard vacation. I felt refreshed with everything that had been so deeply weighing on me in everyday life. The boring routine, the negativity of the world and the extreme fear and isolation that the pandemic brought. I felt such a sense of restoration of hope for the future, faith in humanity, and although I know covid isn’t fully gone, I feel like I have overcome my personal fear of it. This Egypt trip was everything I hoped it to be, and unexpectedly healing. I’m ready for the next trip! :) “
Testimony from Jill Pliskin, Egypt 2022:
“I have thought about this, and also noticed what I have said to friends when describing my experience to them. Traveling in a group certainly had its challenges, especially for someone who has traveled independently for so long. However it is clear to me that this trip afforded me opportunities and experiences that it would have been impossible for me to have as a solo traveller. I’m thinking of things like the private visit to the Sphinx, and in fact all of the private visits. I am also thinking about the spiritual/meditative side of the trip that you Maari brought to the experience. This was really a special addition to my experience of Egypt. I also had a level of fun and social interaction that I have not had in a very long time, and with an exceptionally lovely group of people. You really can’t beat Seattlites for heart combined with intelligence!”
