The Nile river travels almost 7000km before emptying out into the Mediterranean Sea, passes through five countries, and provides a water source for half a dozen more.
It launched arguably the world’s most complex ancient civilization, inspired a troupe of explorers as well as an Agatha Christie novel, and has been the center of geo-political disputes for decades. On top of all of this, the world’s longest river is also a travel icon and exploring its currents and banks makes for an awesome African adventure.
