Overseas Adventure Travel hails itself as "The Leader in Small Groups on the Road Less Traveled." Supporting this claim are the group sizes for Overseas Adventure Travel trips. They never have more than 10 to 16 people. As for destinations, the travel company focuses on destinations outside of the United States, with examples including Costa Rica, Peru, Japan, Thailand, Israel, Turkey, Iceland, and New Zealand. Generally, while the minimum age requirement for Overseas Adventure Travel trips is 13 years old, the company specifically caters to Americans aged 50 or above. Overseas Adventure Travel brings more than 30 years of experience to the table and prides itself on offering trips that have a favorable value to cost ratio. History and Founders In 1978, Overseas Adventure Travel was founded in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Its founder, a 28-year-old high school teacher named Judi Wineland, was so inspired by a trip to Africa that she decided to form a company and start offering her own guided ventures to the continent. Among the main goals of Wineland was to improve on the safari experiences that were offered at the time. To do this, she partnered with Rick Thomson who ran his own safari company in Tanzania. The two would later marry. The OAT safaris in Tanzania were more affordable than the few being offered at the time. Eventually, after a rather slow start, Overseas Adventure Travel found its feet within the travel industry and started offering custom small group tours to exotic destinations outside of Africa. Early on, these destinations included Peru, Turkey and Nepal. The company continued to grow over the years, and in 1993, it was purchased by the Grand Circle Corporation.
