Visit Ancient Egypt on Oakton Tour

Step back in time to the ancient world of Egypt on a travel/study tour sponsored by Oakton Community College. Trips in 2008 depart in February, March, June, October and November.

Begin in Cairo with an informative lecture on Egypt's legendary kings, then walk amidst the famous pyramids and observe the mysterious Sphinx. See the vast treasures of King Tutankhamun at the Egyptian Museum. Travel across the Nile to the west bank of Luxor and the Necropolis of Thebes, burial ground of the great pharaohs.

A family adventure with two expert guides also is scheduled. Lower cost versions of this learning vacation are available for the budget-minded traveler. Alternative trips include more modest accommodations and meal packages.
