Nile River, Egypt

Egypt Oceania River Conference

Friday 3 April - Monday 13 April 2026

CPD in Nile River, Egypt

Few historical destinations speak to the imagination as much as Egypt does. Surrounded by the improbably complex architecture of the ancient Egyptians, the ancient culture of the pharaohs is palpably present in the landscape. The Egypt Oceania River Conference takes you to the heart of this ancient land, on a journey along the legendary Nile river that has been the centre of life in Egypt since its history began over six millennia ago. This is where some of the earliest developments in writing, agriculture, urbanisation and centralised government can be traced back to, and an undoubtedly spectacular and informative backdrop to our medical, legal and dental conferences.
This conference is a once-in-a-lifetime journey that combines professional development, quality networking and an unforgettable setting. Over the course of 11 days, we will explore the remnants and heritage of Egyptian civilisation and discover the country’s modern reinvention from the comfort of a luxurious cruise ship boasting just 42 cabins. You will have the chance to walk in the footsteps of pharaohs and queens as you float down the Nile with the guidance of an expert Egyptologist who will bring the country’s rich past to life. This immersive experience promises to be equal parts engaging, informative and incredibly inspiring.
We begin our journey in the Egyptian capital: Cairo. This fascinating city is the largest urban agglomeration in Africa, and a true melting pot of history and contemporary culture. Cairo has a rich academic history, being home to one of the world’s oldest universities, Al-Azhar, which was founded around 970. Here we will explore a 12th Century citadel, the city’s famous Alabaster Mosque and the Egyptian Museum – home to some of the country’s priceless treasures, including Pharaoh Tutankhamun’s gold burial mask. We will also visit the Ancient Memphis sites, including the Pyramids of Giza and the Great Sphinx. This site is also where many of Egypt’s doctors were buried, including Imhotep – who was later elevated to the status of a deity for his contributions to medicine and healing.

Academic Agenda

At CPE Conferences, our mission is twofold – to deliver high quality academic content from Australian and International specialists in medicine, law and dentistry and to provide access to experts local to the conference destination. Our longstanding tradition has been to push the delegates’ educational boundaries by exploring the conference destination not only through travel, but also through its medical and legal environment and political context.  We do this by arranging local expert speakers and academic field trips and believe this gives learning a new dimension.

The bulk of the academic content consists of leading Australian practitioners presenting on their area of expertise. To provide diversity in our academic agendas, and particularly to enable us to provide unique local experiences, we do not publish the academic agenda in advance. Often local presenters are unable to commit to a specific session time months in advance. We believe (and indeed our feedback reflects) that the local presenters and field trips add immeasurable value to the academic experience and as such we want to preserve our ability to include the local experts. The academic agenda is released on the day of Welcome Drinks, the day before the first academic sessions.

Apply To Speak

We encourage all our delegates to engage with the academic program by applying to present a topic at our conferences for a number reasons. Showcase your recent publication, interesting case, area of expertise or update on an important topic; approved applications receive a discounted registration rate; for some colleges or societies you may attract more CPD points. Our presenters often gain more from the networking aspects of the conference and have frequently been contacted after their presentation for professional development opportunities such as appearing as an expert witness, being briefed on a matter or other general referrals. We have two options when participating in our academic program, a full speaker registration or an Experts’ Forum presentation. Our speaker registration attracts a discounted fee, and requires a minimum of 1 hour presentation. An Experts’ Forum presentation is shorter in duration and does not attract a discount. It is for those wishing to present for a minimum of 20 minutes.

Travelling to Nile River, Egypt

Travel in style on board the Uniworld S.S. Sphinx. Tastefully decorated by local artisans, this cruise ship will allow you to immerse yourself into Egyptian culture from the comfort of a luxurious ship. With only 42 cabins, this exclusive venue is ideal for a conference as it encourages professional networking with fellow passengers. The S.S. Sphinx offers two restaurants, a sun deck with shaded cabanas and a swimming pool, massage room, fitness centre, spa and much more. Contact CPE Travel to obtain a quote for your cabin on the cruise component. Please note that it is a condition for registration of this conference that all delegates must book and pay for the expedition component through CPE Travel. The reason for this is that we need to command the common areas of the ship in order to conduct our conferences and we can only do so if every delegate and accompanying person is part of our group booking. Unfortunately any person booking directly with the cruise company or other travel agent will not be able to register or attend the conference. CPE Travel Professionals can be contacted on +61 7 3254 3331 or via email [email protected].
