Our historic hotel is right on the banks of the Nile. Sir Richard Burton wrote, in the 1850s, of how much he enjoyed staying here upon returning from his explorations of Equatorial Africa. Among our adventurers is Sarah Whitaker, who has been with us for the Fiesta in Pamplona, to trek through Patagonia, dog sledding above the Artic Circle, exploring Iceland, and other destinations. Traveling with her are Betty Thomas and Sara Van Arsdal (an archaeologist who is ecstatic about being here). Manny & Barbara Diaz, who became engaged on our Grecian Isles Odyssey are with us; along with Larry Pisto & Wendy Bradley who have been with us to Easter Island, Guatemala, Nepal, Patagonia, The Galapagos and other destinations. Tomorrow we fly up the Nile for a 5-day cruise aboard a 5-star deluxe boat, to visit ancient ruins. What sets this adventure apart is our exploration of Siwa Oasis, hundreds of square miles of date groves, olive trees and freshwater lakes in the heart of the desert. Its culture is unique.
