Anyone can take you to Africa. But when you travel to Africa with Globus, you get insights and cultural interactions to turn your once-in-a-lifetime Africa escorted vacation into a truly one-of-a-kind experience. Enjoy learning about the Great Pyramids from Egyptologists, tasting South Africa's best wines or getting up close and personal with Africa's most exotic creatures.

The mysterious Nile River, the world's longest river, flows from Lake Victoria in East Africa to its mouth at the Mediterranean Sea in Egypt. It passes through rainforest, mountain, savanna, and swamp until, on the final leg of its journey, it winds its way through Egypt like a giant snake, passing through some of the driest desert on earth. With a name from a Greek word meaning "river valley," the Nile River played a crucial role in the founding of Egyptian civilization.
