Wellness Retreat with Mimi ElAshiry and Stamps Tours in Egypt
Cairo, Egypt
Up to 20 in group
Nov 21 - Dec 2, 2026
Retreat Highlights
- This curated wellness journey invites you to experience Egypt in a way that is deeply grounding, culturally rich, and quietly luxurious. Your retreat begins in Cairo with a seamless arrival and a gentle introduction to the energy of the land, before standing before the timeless Pyramids of Giza and exploring the Grand Egyptian Museum.
- From there, the journey slows as you travel south to Luxor and step aboard a private dahabiya, sailing the Nile in an intimate, elegant setting. Days unfold with movement, breathwork, meditation, and sunset practices, woven between visits to sacred temples including Karnak, the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut, Edfu, Kom Ombo, and Philae. Evenings are unhurried, featuring candlelit dinners, a traditional galabeya celebration, and moments of deep rest on the river.
- The retreat continues into the stillness of the Siwa Oasis, where desert landscapes, natural hot springs, and salt lakes create space for reflection and renewal. A 4×4 desert safari, sandboarding, and a campfire dinner under the stars mark a soulful closing to the journey before returning to Cairo for departure.
- Throughout the retreat, thoughtful pacing, inspiring locations, and mindful practices come together to offer an experience of presence, connection, and quiet luxury.
