Solar Eclipse Tours to China & India 2009
At IAH a total solar eclipse is one of our passions - which is why we are totally committed to giving you the best possible solar eclipse tour experience.
IAH holidays provided fantastic tours to the 2006 total solar eclipse in Turkey, the 2007 total eclipse in Russia & China, and we now offer 5 great tours to China and India for the 2009 solar eclipse.
Places on our solar eclipse tours are strictly limited so please book in advance to avoid disappointment!
Partial eclipses of the sun pale in comparison to the overwhelming spectacle of a total solar eclipse! On Wednesday, 22 July 2009, a total eclipse of the sun will be visible from within a narrow corridor, which traverses half the Earth. Come to India or China and witness the incredible Solar Eclipse with us!
Check out Marks Travel Notes for some great general info about a solar eclipse and a personal account of eclipse chasing!
India or China, the choice is yours!
The solar eclipse will start off the West coast of India and travel north east passing over Varanasi and Darjeeling lasting for a duration of 4 minutes 02 seconds, then onward through Bhutan and Bangladesh till it reaches China. China will experience the very best visual of the impressive total solar eclipse. Passing over Chongqing, the great Yantze with its three Gorges and the coastline of Shanghai viewers have the advantage of being positioned directly beneath.
Flights
As you may know, flights and tours for such a fantastic experience become scarce as time gets closer to departure so we would suggest that early booking is a priority. The best way to guarantee your place is by booking your tour soon with a deposit. The deposit for a 4 day tour would be £175.00 and the deposit for the 7, 8, 10 or 11 day eclipse tour would be £225.00.
