Backpacker Concierge hosts the University of California on Study Visit to Egypt

Backpacker Concierge and the administration of the University of California - San Diego have teamed up to offer a 17-day study visit to Egypt this September.


20 Students and 4 Professors will be traveling to Egypt during the Ramadan season for an in-depth look at the country's monuments and ongoing archaeological digs. The group will be traveling to some of the lesser known sites in the Lake Nasserarea in addition to extended visits in Cairo and Luxor.

Backpacker Concierge has incorporated some more interesting elements to keep the students entertained, as well - a Hot Air Balloon ride over Luxor's West Bank, 4x4 Motorbikes through the Theban Mountains, a Desert Safari through the White Desert, and a Felucca Journey and Camel Trek in Aswan.
