About

Overseas Adventure Travel

Founded in 1978, Overseas Adventure Travel (O.A.T.) is America’s leading adventure travel
company—and the leader in solo-friendly travel—serving active, lifelong learners. Every
O.A.T. journey is a learning adventure that not only showcases iconic sights, but takes
you beyond them to experience the true culture through unique hands-on activities,
engagement with the natural world, and authentic interactions with the local people.

THE O.A.T. DIFFERENCE
Small Groups: 8-16 travelers (average of 13)—guaranteed. Our groups never exceed
16 travelers. This gives you access to people and places larger groups simply can’t
reach. More authentic interactions. Deeper bonds with your travel mates. Personal
service from your Trip Experience Leader. Smoother transitions. And a far more
satisfying experience.
The best Trip Experience Leaders. Your English-speaking, O.A.T. Trip Experience
Leader is a resident of the region you are visiting, so you will get a true insider’s
perspective.
Authentic cultural connections. Engage with local people through visits to farms,
factories, markets, and artisans’ studios; school visits; Home-Hosted meals; and more.

Local modes of transportation. We take roads and waterways that are less traveled,
and we o en follow them using the same unique modes of transportation that the

locals use—be it a canoe, a camel or a vintage cab.

Unique Lodgings. Our lodgings reflect the local character, from smaller family-run
hotels and historic manors to comfy inns.

Our worldwide o ices. With 36 regional o ices around the world, we are perfectly

poised to leverage our local relationships to deliver an excellent experience and value.
