At IAH a 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 has 10 years industry experience and is a reputable, knowledgeable, and efficient supplier of quality products. Some of our clients who have travelled 2009 with us are already asking about 2010 too!

IAH holidays provided fantastic tours to the 2006 total solar eclipse in Turkey, the 2008 eclipse in Russia & China, the 2009 eclipse in China and India and will be offering tours to Easter Island for the 2010 total solar eclipse.

On January 15th 2010 an annular solar eclipse will be passing through a narrow corridor of the earth and creating a sight to behold for those in its path. It will be the LONGEST annular eclipse in the 3rd millennium – the duration will not be exceeded until the year 3043! It will be visible across Africa, the Indian Ocean, India, Sri Lanka and South East Asia and we are offering special holidays to China to witness this unusual occurrence.

Places on our solar eclipse tours are strictly limited so please book in advance to avoid disappointment!

2010 Annular Solar Eclipse Tours

The path of the Moon's antumbral shadow begins in Africa and passes through Chad, Central African Republic, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Uganda, Kenya, and Somalia. After leaving Africa, the path crosses the Indian Ocean where the maximum duration of annularity reaches 11 min 08 s. The central path then continues into Asia through Bangladesh, India, Burma (Myanmar), and China. A partial eclipse is seen within the much broader path of the Moon's penumbral shadow, which includes eastern Europe, most of Africa, Asia, and Indonesia.

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.
