Discover a breadth of destinations and several ways to see them with the sister companies of Grand Circle.
Grand Circle Travel
Each of our trips—whether by land or small ship—is leisurely paced, so you’ll get the most out of your destination. Led by a resident Program Director who gives you insight that only a local could, each day brings a choice of sightseeing and free time, so you can tailor your own vacation to suit your whims and desires. And thanks to our exclusive Discovery Series cultural and educational events, you’ll enjoy the most authentic experience there is. It’s the best of traditional group travel, with an untraditional dash of flexibility and discovery.
Worldwide River Cruises
In Europe, Egypt and Russia, you’ll cruise on Grand Circle’s own custom-built private ships. Since 1998, we have built these ships with our travelers’ standards in mind. And because we own and manage each and every one, we have complete control of the quality of your experience from bow to stern. Unpack once, then set sail on a journey through as many as five countries, visiting a different port every day. The beauty of these itineraries is the freedom they provide. Because you’re settled into your outside cabin for as long as 13 nights, you can choose to participate in as many – or as few – activities as you’d like.

You’ll see a variety of destinations at an easy tempo. Escorted Trips are ideal for travelers who value camaraderie, as well as independence. Enjoy a generous roster of included sightseeing featuring the “must see” landmarks, as well as the undiscovered gems most travelers never see. Our pacing also provides free time for you to relax, explore independently, and experience local cultures in a meaningful way.

Overseas Adventure Travel
If you like being outdoors, exploring off-the-beaten path, and meeting local people, then OAT is for you. You’ll stay at smaller lodgings that reflect the local culture and cruise with the leader in Small Ship Travel. Because we travel in small groups (never more than 10-25 travelers – guaranteed!), we enjoy a more intimate, personal, and authentic experience.
Land Adventures
Our small-group land adventures—never more than 10-16 travelers, guaranteed!—give us unfettered access to locales and activities that larger tour groups can only dream of, while treading lightly on the environment. Throughout your journey, you’ll experience unique modes of transportation that connect you to the culture, enjoy accommodations that reveal the essence of your destination, and participate in small-group cultural activities. Every adventure is packed with in-depth discoveries.

Small Ship Adventures
Our Small Ship Adventures ply the rivers, oceans, and even canals of the world. Each ship is privately owned or chartered by OAT. You’ll slip into the smaller ports that larger ships could never reach, for the most unique discoveries. And though you may share the cruise portion of your adventure with another OAT group, you’ll enjoy the dedicated services of your own Trip Leader. Along the way, you’ll gain insight into some of the world’s most remote and fascinating destinations. What’s more, you’ll share your experiences exclusively with other OAT travelers.
