Exploring Egypt: A Journey Along the Nile

Overseas Adventure Travel (O.A.T.) has just unveiled an exciting new itinerary, Immersion in Egypt Cruising the Nile River. This special travel experience offers a unique way for those aged 50 and over to connect with the rich history and vibrant culture of Egypt. Spanning 12 days, this adventure takes travelers from the bustling metropolis of Cairo to the enchanting city of Aswan, aboard O.A.T.’s intimate, privately chartered ship, Nefertiti.

A Deeper Connection to History

The itinerary is designed to trace 5,000 years of Egyptian history, allowing travelers to stand in awe before the majestic Pyramids of Giza and the enigmatic Sphinx. They will also explore the newly inaugurated Grand Egyptian Museum, which houses countless artifacts, including treasures from the tomb of Tutankhamun. Highlights continue as travelers delve into ancient marvels like Karnak Temple, Luxor Temple, the Valley of the Kings, and the iconic Abu Simbel.

Travelers can unpack and settle in for a seven-night cruise along the Nile, which provides a remarkable opportunity to immerse themselves in daily life along one of the world's most famous rivers. The ship, Nefertiti, accommodates just 75 passengers, enabling an intimate travel experience that larger vessels cannot offer.

Local Experiences and Cultural Exchange

What sets this journey apart is the meaningful local experiences included in the itinerary. Travelers will engage with the local Nubian community near Aswan, where they will learn about traditional crafts, taste local cuisine, and experience life in the vibrant village.
