Join us on an unforgettable trip to Egypt that awakens the senses, where wonderful landscapes, ancient temples and relaxing moments in the same spiritual company await. We walk along the Light Lines; Through the pyramids, from temple to temple. We sailed on the Nile on the privately used sailing ship Dahabeya. Dahab means gold and as the sun rises and sets, the sails reflect the sun's golden rays. The name of our ship is Qamar = Moon, which strengthens intuition and the more mystical energy of the night.

Acting as tour guides Kirsi Voutilainen and Heidi Jokela. "We were connected at Levi in the summer of 2022 through mutual friends, and that's when the planning of Valo's journey began."
In November 2024, the right moment has come to make a VALO trip that connects us between Finland and Egypt in many ways.
On the journey, we share, feel and experience together. Everyone brings their own unique self and this creates a whole that is meant for us. There is room for 12 participants.
Dahabeya sailing ship is reserved only for our group. On board we can unpack our experiences and meditate in peace.
In Luksor, Kirsi has chosen her own Villa as a place to stay for us, where we can be in peace as a group, sharing experiences and keeping our energies up. Here you have the opportunity to meditate in peace.
We walk with an open heart, enjoying what life offers us. Let Egypt surprise you with its own wonders. There are no clock times in the itinerary, because we go according to the situation and intuition. The program has been made as relaxed as possible, leaving space and peace to experience what is necessary.
Kirsi Voutilainen has lived in Egypt for over 13 years. He feels that one of his most important tasks is to maintain, in his own way, the portal of light in his hometown of Luxor. He is an experienced travel organizer.
