SUMMARY:Archaeology in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
DESCRIPTION:Join archaeologist Barbara A. Porter and a small group of fellow travelers for this in-depth travel experience in Saudi Arabia. This will be Dr. Porter’s fourth tour of the country\, and you will also be accompanied by local guides and a tour manager. This tour opportunity allows us to see\, experience\, and learn about Saudi Arabia’s long history and rich culture\, and how both were influenced by its dramatic geography; and to become familiar with some of the archaeological research and sites that are being uncovered and shared with the world. Following historic trade and pilgrimage routes\, we will cross vast deserts\, see irrigated lands teeming with agriculture\, and enjoy scenic views with striking mountains and landscapes along the way.

SUMMARY:Egypt Revisited
DESCRIPTION:You are invited to return to Egypt to experience this 17-day\, custom designed itinerary in the engaging company of Egyptologist Stephen Harvey plus an expert local Egyptology guide and a professional tour manager. This trio has been receiving accolades for many years.\nHighlights are many and varied:\n• Spend two full days visiting museums in Cairo (the new National Museum of Egyptian Civilization and the historic Egyptian Museum) OR two full days exploring Giza’s Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM) if it is open.\n• Gain inside access to the Red Pyramid at Dahshur\, enter the burial chamber of the collapsed pyramid at Meidum\, and visit two mud-brick pyramids at the Fayoum Oasis.\n• Go behind-the-scenes at the ancient necropolis of Saqqara to see some of the new and remarkable excavations that are not open to the public\, including (pending final confirmation) special access to the recently discovered\, 5th-dynasty Tomb of Wah Ti.\n• Explore the necropoli of Beni Hasan\, known for its 39 rock-cut tombs with well-preserved paintings of dancing\, acrobatics\, juggling\, fishing\, hunting\, and weaving; and Tuna el-Gebel\, with huge catacombs for thousands of mummified ibises and baboons\,\nand much more.\n• Visit Tell el-Amarna\, which replaced Thebes (modern Luxor) as capital of Egypt under the heretic\, 18th-dynasty Pharaoh Akhenaton and was significant for its monotheism and distinctive artistic style.\n• Enjoy two in-depth visits to Abydos\, where Stephen Harvey has worked since 1993\, including visits to the spectacular Temple of Seti I\, with its invaluable “Abydos King List” and chapels with exquisite reliefs; and special access to the subterranean Osireion\n(symbolic tomb of Osiris)\, centered around a burial chamber that was once surrounded by water.\n• Enjoy luxurious or best-available accommodations throughout\, with two or three nights at each property.
