African American Group Tour: Egypt & Nubia Heritage Journey
A private, all-inclusive group journey through Egypt and Nubia, designed for African American travelers, sororities, church families and friend crews.
Overview
This is the trip our travelers dream about: a private, beautifully hosted group journey through the land of an ancient African civilization. You stand before the Pyramids and the Grand Egyptian Museum, sail the Nile on a five-star cruiser, and head south into Nubia, the home of the Black pharaohs and a living African culture you can still experience today. Built for groups of friends, families, sorority lines and church families, it is fully private, paced for everyone, and looked after by our Cairo team from the moment you land. We handle the rooming, the logistics and the special touches, so your group simply shows up and experiences the journey of a lifetime.
