Grand Circle Travel and Overseas Adventure Travel Resume Travel to Egypt and Tunisia

June 2, 2011 - PRLog -- "Our decision to head back to both Egypt and Tunisia comes after extensive meetings with our ground operators, community leaders, and tourism officials," said Lewis.  "Both countries are ready to receive visitors, which is great news for American travelers who tell us they want to travel to these destinations this year."

More than 10,000 older Americans travel to Egypt with Grand Circle Travel (GCT) or Overseas Adventure Travel (OAT) annually, while 3,300 travelers have taken OAT’s small group Tunisia adventure since it launched in late 2008.  

Last week, Lewis held a lottery for a free trip to Egypt for 10 lucky employees.  More than 150 of Grand Circle’s 460 employees in Boston vied for the chance.

"It’s an exciting time to be in Egypt and Tunisia," said Lewis, "and many Americans want to experience history in the making."
