Wonders of Ancient Egypt (12 Days)

From beginning to end and the 12 days in between Trafalgar had every detail of the very busy touring schedule carefully planned. Instructions were repeated numerous times so there was no doubt when to meet for guided tour. Free time was given at each tour site after being guided, with instructions when to re group. touring was thorough main historic sights were included with trip package. There were numerous optional experiences averaging about $100 US each. Arriving at hotel late and very tired we DID NOT have to stand in line to get checked in, we were pre checked in. On arrival handed our keys and directly to room. End of trip transfer to airport was organized and stress free.

King Tutankhamun - 10 days

This was the trip of a lifetime, and our guide Momo made it even more special! He has incredibly knowledgeable of the history of all the sites we went to and is extremely personable, we had an absolute blast with him!

Nile Cruise 4 days 5 stars including internal flights

It was a busy tour: lots packed in to the short schedule. The boat was solid, the food and accomodation satisfactory, with plenty of choice, to suit all tastes. The guide was very good, flexible and accommodating, as were the booking team - we had to make a flight change to connect with our departure flight and this was all dealt with for us. Overall a very positive experience - but a busy schedule!

Egypt Highlights

Well organized. Thanks :)

Pharaohs Nile Cruise Adventure - Return Flights Included

Amazing! It was all I expected and more. Harry, Gabe, Ahmed and the entire crew on board the nile cruise went above and beyond. I can't recommend them enough and I'll definitely be back!

• Coach / Bus

King Ramses - 13 days

Our family of four had an incredible time on the King Ramses II Egypt tour. It was so special to experience Egypt as a part of a well organised, fun, and educational tour with On The Go, especially with our talented and knowledgeable guide MoMo. As an Egyptologist, MoMo took us through the beautiful historical sites of Egypt with passion and a depth of knowledge, teaching us so much about each site while making the entire trip a fun and exciting experience. We loved every second of this tour, and were really impressed with the balance of historical and local Egypt, and the quality and organisation of transport and accommodation. Our guide MoMo really made our tour special, bringing together the whole group with his knowledge of Egypt, always happy to answer any questions and help out in any way he can. He truly welcomed us to Egypt as a family and we were so lucky to have a guide with such passion for his work and that displayed kindness and understanding to each and every one of us. We cannot recommend visiting Egypt enough, especially with On The Go tours. I’m sure that you too will experience a once in a lifetime trip, where MoMo and On The Go will be sure to introduce you to their culturally and historically rich country.

Wonders of the Pharaohs

Excellent itinerary, excellent guide. George made everything easy. Super flexible about most things (but you do need to pre book flights to Aswan as they run out). I would not do Egypt without a tour guide, and Timeless Tours provided a service that I am not sure everyone offers. We were met off our flights (before baggage collection), and after the tour we’re delivered to the airport. The perfect way to make what could have been quite a challenging visit, easy.

Cairo and Nile Cruise Tours - Included Internal Flights

Alles ok, gute Reiseleitung und Betreuung

4 Day - 3 Night Deluxe Nile Cruise Trip Aswan & Luxor

Insgesamt war die viertägige Reise sehr schön, so dass wir diese gerne weiterempfehlen können. Ein paar negative Dinge möchten wir allerdings dennoch anmerken. Es macht bestimmt Sinn die ankommenden Gäste besser zu informieren wer welche Funktion hat. Wem man da Geld gibt ohne Quittung. Das man 45€ pauschal Trinkgeld vorab bezahlen muss um dann trotzdem für jeden Kofferträger, Fahrer, Fotografen extra was hinzulegen halte ich für eine Unverschämtheit zumal man Trinkgeld auch in Ägypten abhängig von der Qualität der Dienstleistung bezahlt. Ein weiteres Ärgernis aus unsrer Sicht war die Tatsache dass meine Kinder statt der gebuchten Kabine im Vorderschiff die neben der unsrigen lag, eine Kabine direkt hinter dem Dieselmotor bekam, offensichtlich weil sich ein früher angereister Gast beschwerte und dafür die Kabine meiner Kinder bekam. Die Kabine war laut und die Klimaanlage funktionierte nicht, ein Balkon war auch nicht dabei. Ich würde übrigens auch empfehlen eine genauer Beschreibung des Tagesablaufes an die Gäste weiterzugeben.

Splendours of Egypt (Classic, Summer, 12 Days)

Thank you, Insight Vacations, for making our dream come true! We have had a fantastic experience in Egypt since 26.2.2018 to 09.03.2018 and really appreciate true dedication and top level of professionalism demonstrated by our Tour Director Mohammed Abd Allah, our guide Ramaddan and coordinator Rafaat. Those people were always there to deal efficiently with any request or wish we had and answer any question. We can highly recommend them as well as the company in general as the best facilitators of international travel ever. They provided us with a safe and reliable way to get introduced to the wonders of Egypt as well as it's friendly and hospitable people.

Best of Egypt (Winter, 9 Days)

i had an amazing experience

Mysteries of the Egyptian Nile

Classical Egypt & Nile Cruise - 11 days

Me and my friend decide to visit Egypt. We booked with the local travel agency Flight Center, who together with On the Go Egypt helped us book the trip. We chose the Classical Egypt and Nile cruise package. Our tour guide was Mohammed (Momo) and we had one of the best experiences with him. Throughout the tour he showed deep knowledge of the history and beliefs of the ancient Egyptians monarchs and people. He made it possible for us to link all the historic sites, from the great pyramids to the Nubian Philae temple. He was able to interpret site paintings and hieroglyphics for us to make sense of the tour. My highlights for the tour were the pyramids, the valley of the kings and the cruise. We were generally happy with our stay. We felt safe at all times

Egypt Luxury Tour Package 8 Days, 7 Nights

The tour I did was incredible we covered all the main sights in Egypt. My tour guide Ahmed was amazing he was so helpful and made the tour lots of fun.

Egypt Highlights & Hidden Gems - 11 days

What people love about nile tours for couples.

Exceptional guide - well informed good storyteller to help us understand and appreciate what we were looking at .Sharif was such fun -he made the trip such a success c

The cruise was very nice and the staff friendly. Facilities were good. However, for tourists coming from countries with weak currencies it was a very expensive trip. We knew that in advance, but still decided to go on the trip. Our discomfort was with the tips that were expected by every-one. The guides, the bus drivers, the driver of horse carriage, the staff on the boat all expected tips and they were adamant to get it. They were dissatisfied if you give less than what they wanted. These extra money that has to be paid made the trip even more expensive.

Le voyage était fantastique! La nourriture, la décoration, la propreté … Tout était parfait! La pause baignade était super.

So in awe of these past few days on this spectacular boat! Everyone on board made the entire experience so incredible.

An amazing trip on the Nile. We loved every minute of it. We felt truly taken care of. Everyone made our trip very exciting and special.

What a fabulous trip. For those not familiar with a dahabiya (and I was not either), it is a most comfortable way to visit the great sights of Egypt.

Danki vir’n lekker tyd op die Nile rivier! Ons het diet baie geniet! Julle het baie mooi na uns gekyk. Almal het ons trip spesiaal gemaak. Ons het al julle efforts waarden!

The sights are unforgettable, the realisation of dreams all my life and to do this in such style and comfort and with the support of you and your wonderful crew….

Itinerary idea in detail

Ask us if you would also like us to arrange your international flights at our preferred rates.

Upon arrival in Amman, you are met at Queen Alia International Airport by a friendly local Audley representative who assists you through customs. Your private driver then transfers you to your hotel in downtown Amman, and you have some time to settle in.

This morning, with your local guide, you drive one hour north to explore Jerash, one of the best-preserved Greco-Roman cities in the Middle East. You stop for lunch at Bait Al Khayrat cooperative en route back to Amman. The charity supports and employs women from the local village, Souf. In the afternoon, you will have a private tour of Amman, the city of seven hills. The Roman amphitheater in downtown has a capacity for 6,000 people across three tiers and is a particular highlight.

Today, you depart Amman and, with your private driver, travel along the 5,000-year-old King's Highway to Petra. En route, you will stop at Mount Nebo and see its spectacular views over the Dead Sea, Madaba to see the Christian mosaics, and Kerak to visit the Crusader castle. Total driving time today will be around five hours, and you will arrive at your Petra hotel in the evening.

Today, you will enjoy a full-day guided tour of the Nabatean city of Petra, one of the seven wonders of the modern world. This will probably be one of the highlights of your trip. Your private guide will walk around the enormous site with you, explaining how Petra was built and the story of the Nabatean people who inhabited it. In the evening, you will return to your hotel and have time to relax and enjoy its facilities.

One day is never enough to fully experience the wonders of Petra, so you have an extra day to explore. Wake up before sunrise for a truly unforgettable sunrise hot air balloon ride above Petra. After returning to your hotel for breakfast, you could hike up to the Monastery or the High Place of Sacrifice or visit the Royal Tombs or Byzantine Church. Another truly unique experience, in the evening, you have a freshly prepared dinner in one of the caves set among the rock close to Little Petra.

Beginning your journey back north, you have one night to experience the unique charms of the Dead Sea. On the way, you'll enjoy a guided 4x4 tour of the vast, stunning landscapes of Wadi Rum. You’ll be driven across the sandy, rocky landscape to see interesting sites, including petroglyphs and inscriptions that tell the story of 12,000 years of human history here. Make sure you spend some time floating in the Dead Sea and absorb its naturally healing properties.

In the morning, your driver will collect you and transfer you to Queen Alia International Airport for your flight to Cairo. Here, you are greeted by a local Audley representative and driver who will take you to your hotel in the city. You have the rest of the day at leisure to settle into your hotel. Alternatively, you could head down to Khan el-Khalili Souq and spend some time shopping.

This morning, your private guide will meet you at your hotel for a full-day tour of the pyramids at Giza, Memphis and Saqqara. The three sites showcase a range of Ancient Egyptian history and pyramid-building styles, the step pyramid at Saqqara being the earliest example.

Today, your guide will pick you up for a half-day tour of the Egyptian Museum, where the apparent disarray belies the vast collection of treasures on display. One of the highlights will surely be Tutankhamun’s death mask. In the afternoon, your private guide will take you to Old Cairo, an area within the Roman fortress of Babylon, where Coptic Christians built their churches. There are still tens of thousands of Copts in Egypt today, and this tour gives you an idea of the many layers of Egyptian society.

After breakfast, you are taken to Cairo International Airport by your private driver in time for a short flight to Aswan, where you are greeted and driven to your cruise ship in time for lunch. In the afternoon, you take a short motorboat ride to visit the peaceful Philae Temple on an island in the Nile. Afterwards, you visit the Aswan High Dam, constructed in the 1960s and 70s and the Unfinished Obelisk, the largest known ancient obelisk, with your small tour group.

This morning, you set sail to Kom Ombo and visit the temples of Sobek and Haroeris, which are dedicated, unusually, to two gods. These are Sobek, the god of the Nile, and Haroeris who was an older manifestation of Horus. The boat continues to Edfu where you have a chance to explore the temple of Horus and uncover the legend behind it. You return to the boat for dinner on board before the boat moors in Esna overnight.

You set sail and cross the famous Esna Lock while having breakfast, and reach Luxor today. On arrival, you cross to the West Bank to visit the Theban Necropolis, Valley of the Kings, Queen Hatshepsut’s temple at Deir el Bahari and the Colossi of Memnon. You have the chance to descend into one of the well-preserved tombs in the Valley of the Kings and marvel at the awe-inspiring hieroglyphics. You return to the boat for your final evening and have dinner accompanied by live music and entertainment.

Disembark after breakfast and cross to the East Bank to visit the impressive temples at Luxor and Karnak. The Karnak temple site was developed, built and added to over a period of 1,300 years and is a vast complex of temples within temples, pylons and hypostyle halls covering more than 400,000 square meters. After your small group tour, you are driven from Luxor to Hurghada in a private vehicle, arriving at the Oberoi Sahl Hasheesh in the evening.

Spend a day relaxing at the Oberoi Sahl Hasheesh. You could head out snorkeling across the colorful house reef. The Red Sea is a world-class diving and snorkeling destination, with sites perfectly suited to all ages, levels of ability and experience. Alternatively, if you are feeling more adventurous, book a day’s diving tuition through the Oberoi’s PADI-certified dive school. The hotel has a range of dining options for dinner, including an Asian, Indian, and international à la carte restaurant.

Today is your final full day in Egypt. You could book in for some relaxing treatments at the hotel’s spa. If you’re feeling more energetic, head to the tennis courts or golf course for a session. The hotel also offers complimentary cooking classes, wine tasting, and yoga if this is more up your street.

After breakfast, you are collected by your private driver and transferred to Hurghada Airport for your flight to Cairo, ready for your return international flight. You are met on arrival by a local representative who will assist you in finding the correct departure gate for your onward flight.

Cruising the River Nile: Pros, Cons, and Recommendations

Angus McComiskey/Getty Images  

Traditionally, a Nile cruise was considered the centerpiece of an Egyptian vacation, evoking romantic images of idyllic days spent drifting in luxury between the country's ancient sights . In Victorian times, a Nile cruise was the only way to see some of Egypt 's most outstanding ancient temples. Modern visitors have more options available to them; and while Nile cruises are still popular, some find themselves put off by the idea of being confined on a boat for the majority of their vacation. The river is much busier now than it was in the past, and with more than 200 cruise boats plying their trade, there are lines to get through the locks and to dock at each disembarkation point. 

Let's weigh the pros and cons of a Nile cruise so that you can decide whether or not it's a good fit for your visit to Egypt. 

What to Expect

Most Nile cruises start in Luxor and visit the popular sites of Esna, Edfu, and Kom Ombo before disembarking in Aswan. Other itineraries fly directly to Aswan and work their way north down the Nile to the same sights. Most cruises will last at least four nights. There are many different vessels to choose from, ranging from traditional paddle steamers (best suited to those that favor history and authenticity) to luxurious modern cruise ships (geared towards those for whom creature comforts are a priority). Your budget and personal preferences will determine which cruise you choose, although opting for a cabin with air-conditioning is advised during the scorching summer months .

Most cruise companies employ the services of an Egyptologist, who will guide your group around the ancient sights you visit along the way. Days start early to avoid the intense heat of the afternoon; and as such, all cruises tend to operate on a similar schedule (which can lead to overcrowding at the docking sites and at the temples themselves). Modern vessels typically have a swimming pool so that you can cool off after your morning explorations; while some provide nightly entertainment in the form of belly dancing shows or themed dress-up evenings. Food on board is usually excellent, ranging from generous buffets to set dinner menus. Make sure to find out what's included before choosing your operator.

Despite the changes brought about by the progression of time, a Nile river cruise is still one of the most popular ways to see Egypt's ancient sights. Part of that is tradition, and part of it is practicality; after all, many of the most famous sites are located directly on the river, making a cruise the easiest way to travel between them. At night, many of the temples and monuments are illuminated, and the sight of them from the water is simply breathtaking. During the day, the rural scenes you'll see whilst traveling from place to place have remained largely unchanged for thousands of years.

Despite the early morning starts (and depending on which vessel you choose), cruises can also be wonderfully relaxing. While sailing, you'll be able to get a sense of the country without having to deal firsthand with the chaotic roads, busy city streets, and persistent hawkers for which Egypt is famous. Although the sites you'll visit along the way are inevitably crowded, arriving in a large group can make some travelers feel more comfortable. You'll also benefit from the knowledge of an expert guide, both in terms of navigating the touts and in terms of understanding the fascinating history of the temples themselves.

For many visitors, the main drawback of a Nile cruise is not the influx of vessels, nor the crowding at the sites (the latter is unavoidable whether you visit them as part of a cruise or not). The main disadvantage is the inflexibility of a cruise; the fact that you have to operate on a set schedule that dictates when you visit a temple, how long you get to spend there, and what you see whilst you're there. If you want to spend more than a few hours exploring the untold wonders of the temple complexes at Luxor, for example, you may wish to travel there independently or with a land-based guide.

These days, overland tours are equally easy to arrange and allow for more flexibility. You can even hire a car or take public transport if you don't want to be part of an organized tour at all. Many cruise itineraries focus solely on the most popular temples, leaving out worthwhile smaller sights like Abydos and Dendera. Alternatively if your time in Egypt is limited, you may prefer to focus on one or two sights rather than spending much of your vacation in transit on the river. The sheer amount of time spent on board can also be a drawback if you're traveling with young children, or if you find out too late that you don't enjoy the company of your fellow cruise mates.

Recommended Cruises

Best Traditional

Audley Travel's five-night itineraries aboard the Steam Ship Sudan offer the last word in exclusivity and Victorian-era refinement. The steamship, which was constructed in 1885 for King Fouad, was the direct inspiration for Agatha Christie's famous novel Death on the Nile and is still decorated in flawless Belle Epoque style. In each of its 18 cabins and five suites, period antiques range from brass beds to vintage telephones. And although the ship is now operated by a hybrid diesel/steam engine for optimum quietness, you can still view the original pistons and paddle wheels. Dining aboard the Steam Ship Sudan includes generous buffet breakfasts and lunches and stately four-course dinners.

Best Luxury

Despite its traditional exterior, the  Oberoi Philae  offers 22 cabins and suites decorated in the same style you might expect from a contemporary 5-star hotel. Each one includes a pillow-top mattress, high-speed WiFi, a multi-pressure shower, and 24-hour butler service. If you're feeling particularly decadent, splurge on a suite with its own private terrace, complete with a sun lounger and heated whirlpool tub. There are two restaurants to choose from, one for gourmet international cuisine, the other for light meals and beverages at the edge of the ship's temperature-controlled outdoor swimming pool. Other luxuries range from a movie theater and dance floor to a salon and spa treatment rooms.

Best Budget

Budget travelers should consider booking a felucca cruise like the ones offered by On The Go Tours . Feluccas are traditional Egyptian sailboats, the like of which have plied their trade on the Nile for centuries. They are wind-powered and as such have a more fluid itinerary; while their smaller size allows them to dock at places of interest that don't have the infrastructure for larger cruise ships. There is no luxury on a felucca cruise; you will sleep on deck in a sleeping bag that you bring with you; the food is basic and amenities are limited to a toilet and shower on the accompanying support boat. However, the experience is probably one of the most authentic (and certainly the cheapest) on the river.

Best for Families

Being trapped on a boat for an extended period of time can be challenging for families, especially if they include young children. This 10-day itinerary from Abercrombie & Kent gives you the best of both worlds with some land-based adventures in addition to a four-night Nile cruise. Your journey from Luxor to Aswan aboard Sanctuary Sun Boat IV is accompanied by an A&K Child Activity Coordinator whose job it is to keep your little ones entertained en route. The itinerary also includes plenty of interactive, hands-on fun that doubles as cultural education, from felucca sailing trips to camel rides, henna painting, and bread baking. A themed dinner and onboard costume party lets the kids dress up in traditional robes known as galabeyas .

The Last Word

Ultimately, whether or not a Nile cruise is the right choice for you depends on your personal preferences. If you like the idea of a cruise , the sheer variety of available options means that you're likely to find a vessel and/or operator to suit your needs. If the drawbacks listed above sound like deal-breakers for you, you're better off saving your money and organizing an alternative option instead.

The Unfinished Obelisk

The Unfinished Obelisk is a gigantic, partially-carved obelisk that was meant to be the largest in the whole world.

The Karnak Temple is regarded as one of ancient Egypt's most important and spectacular temple complexes. The Great Temple was constructed over about 2000 years, from the Middle Kingdom through the Ptolemaic dynasty. Each precinct of the temple has its collection of buildings, courtyards, and shrines. The temple complex contained a vast number of scribes, priests, and administrators who managed the temple's business and oversaw the numerous offerings and rites performed there.

The Colossi of Memnon are considered to be one of the most important landmarks in Egypt . They were erected during the 14th century BC, and they have been standing tall ever since.

The long sprint towards her dream.

• May 03,2022
• Case Studies

20-year old Aneesha is taking a breather in the scorching heat having just finished her 5 km long run. She has just cleared her SSC examinations for joining the Delhi police force and preparing for the physical test. It is morning in MahwaKhurd, a remote district in Rajasthan and Aneesha has a really long day ahead of her, she has her B.Ed classes to attend. She already dreams of being deputed to handle law and order situations and her confident. Her poise and confidence inspires one to believe that her dreams will come true.

It is difficult to imagine though, that the timid ,shy and somewhat dispirited girl who entered the MahwaKhurd Learning Center 14 years back is today’s Aneesha.

Her father was an agricultural labourer and mother, a housewife with 3 more siblings at home. She was the eldest.

Her teacher Pinky still remembers the first day of Aneesha in the LC when she entered with a slate clung to her chest rolling the corner of her almost torned frock with her tiny fingers escorted by her mother . Pinky says- ‘she was an underdog, always immersed in herself. It was a frustrating experience for me to make her speak even a few words in the beginning. But I would always see her most excited when any activity, especially the physical activity, is conducted in the learning sessions. She would stand up quietly and within minutes will change into another person- moving rapidly . Also, another striking fact about her was her sense of duty . She was responsible for filling the water pot for the girls’ before they arrived. I never had to remind her even once while she was a student at the LC. Every day before all of us reached we would find Aneesha quietly sitting and waiting for all of us with a water pot neatly filled in and rolled with a wet cloth . She never spoke much but whenever she did there was a qualityfirmness in her voice which was intriguing.

5 years passed and passing grade V from LC she left to study further in the village Government school and then in the nearby town to complete her 12th grade. Responding to a call for joining the Delhi Police Force, Aneesha successfully cleared her written entrance exams, only the physical test remains to be passed.

Fondly remembering her days in LC Aneesha states – ‘had it not been the LC I probably would have remained illiterate and would never be what I am today . I would have been perhaps married off and by now would be the mother of at least 5 children , and she laughs. There was no way I could have gathered the courage to enter school with my humble background. This one chance altered my life forever and I can’t be more grateful!’

Stating this she excuses herself and resumed practicing her sprints – her sprints towards her dreams………………….

Our Akarbad Learnning Centre

In West Bengal’s Purulia District, Akrabad, a dirt-poor tribal village of Sabars, with its 127 families, had faced much ostracism from its colonial-era criminal classification. With a shocking 58% illiteracy rate among females, girls of Akrabad faced a dark future ridden with child marriage and child labour. Of little value to their families, they were frequently forced to collect firewood from forests. The cloud of neglect was heavy.

The story changed with the ‘IIMPACT Girl Child Education Programme’. Girl literacy shot up by 15%, with decreasing instances of child marriage and child labour with parents welcoming the transformation. Even the village boys have taken cue from the girls and have enrolled for schooling. Today, the whole community considers education to be a road towards a better future for their children.

A Childhood Reclaimed

• December 26,2015

It is indeed very hard to digest narratives of young village girls being separated from their families and sent to nearby cities to work and to bring in additional income to their impoverished families. Typically the work they get involved in is that of a domestic help, earning a mere pittance – an amount often much lower than the prescribed minimum wage, often mistreated and physically abused.

Nine year old Hasi Khatun’s story is no different. Hasi, a resident of Sujagolpur village in South 24 Parganas.lost her father while she was studying at the local IIMPACT Learning Centre in class 2. Her mother was left to support 8 children, tirelessly working long hours as domestic help in a nearby city home. A well meaning relative suggested they send young Hasi to nearby Bihar to do the same kind of work for much needed additional income.

This phase in Hasi’s life was no less than torture – she swept, swabbed and washed clothes daily. She slept on the floor. She was not paid and was often mistreated by the employers. She was occasionally both verbally and physically abused by the employers in small but painful ways. If she accidentally broke an object in the house while cleaning she would not be given food for a day- a form of retribution.

When the Teacher and members of the IIMPACT team got news of Hasi’s plight they confronted her mother who reluctantly divulged the truth describing their compulsion to send Hasi out to work in order to add to the family income. Hasi’s mother was advised and she was gradually made to understand the negatives of what Hasi was going through at an age when she should be learning and preparing herself to better her own future.

Hasi’s mother saw reason and relented – she brought Hasi back from the frightening world she had been forced to inhabit. She ensured that Hasi returned to IIMPACT’s Learning Centre picking up threads from where she had left off.

IIMPACT ‘s team worked closely with her and helped gift Hasi her childhood back!

• Focus on Girl Child Education Changing The Story Of India
• On: May 9, 2023
• By: Smile Foundation

Education is a crucial instrument for societal and individual growth in the modern world. Despite the advancements made in the education world, gender inequality is still a major problem, especially in girl child education.

Every child deserves to have access to education since it is a fundamental human right, regardless of gender. Building an inclusive and sustainable society depends on educating girls.

Girls who obtain an education are given the power to decide for themselves, their families, and their communities. In this day and age, focusing on the education of girls is crucial since it affects not only fundamental human rights but also the socioeconomic development of communities and nations.

In India, girl child education has gained significant attention in recent years, with the government implementing policies to promote education for girls. The focus on girl child education is crucial in India, where girls face many barriers to accessing education, including poverty, early marriage, and societal norms.

Educating girls is not only a matter of basic human rights, but it also has a significant impact on the country’s socio-economic development. An educated girl is more likely to enter the workforce, contribute to her family’s income, and break the cycle of poverty.

Why Focus on Girl Child Education?

Even with positive steps in the direction and despite the government’s efforts to promote education for girls, there are still significant challenges to achieving gender equality in education. According to a UNESCO report , the dropout rate for girls in India is higher for boys, with poverty, early marriage, and lack of safety as the primary reasons for dropouts. 

There is also a significant gender disparity in higher education, with only 24% of women enrolled in tertiary education compared to 40% of men. Furthermore, girls from marginalized communities, including those from low-income families and rural areas, face even more barriers to accessing education. These challenges highlight the urgent need for continued efforts to promote girl child education in India.

Male literacy rates in India are 84.7 percent and female literacy rates are 70.3 percent in 2022, respectively, compared to a global average female literacy rate of 79 percent.

However, before we talk about the challenges in providing education to girls, let us first look at its benefits. Here are the 10 advantages of girl child education :

Improved Health :

Educated girls are more likely to have better health outcomes and make informed decisions about their health.

Higher Earnings :

Educated girls are more likely to enter the workforce, earn higher wages, and contribute to their families’ incomes. For example, studies have shown that an additional year of schooling for girls in India can increase their future earnings by 10-20%.

Poverty Reduction :

Educated girls are more likely to break the cycle of poverty, leading to poverty reduction in their families and communities.

Improved Nutrition :

Educated girls are more likely to have knowledge about nutrition and health, leading to better nutrition outcomes for their families.

Improved Education for Future Generations :

Educated girls are more likely to have educated children, leading to a cycle of intergenerational education.

Empowerment :

Educated girls are more likely to be empowered to make informed decisions about their lives– their health, education, and careers.

Gender Equality :

Educating girls is crucial for achieving gender equality in society.

Reduced Child Marriage :

Educated girls are less likely to get married at a young age, leading to a reduction in child marriage rates.

Reduced Gender-Based Violence :

Educated girls are more likely to be aware of their rights and less likely to experience gender-based violence.

Improved Overall Development :

Educating girls leads to the overall development of society, including economic growth and increased stability.

This highlights the immense importance of girl child education, not just in India but around the world. However, even today, there are many problems in girl child education that countries need to overcome. Now that we understand why is girl-child education important, we must focus on the challenges and the barriers to providing education to our girls.

Challenges in Girl Child Education

Despite the efforts made to promote girl child education, several challenges still exist in ensuring education for girls in India. One of the significant challenges is poverty. Many families in India cannot afford to send their children to school. Girls are often the first to be kept out of school due to societal norms. 

Early marriage is another issue, particularly in rural areas, where girls are married off at a young age, leading to their dropping out of school. According to the National Family Health Survey , in India, around 20% of women aged 20-24 years were married before the age of 18 years. 

Another significant challenge is the lack of safety for girls, particularly when travelling to and from school. This results in many parents being reluctant to send their daughters to school. Other challenges include the shortage of female teachers and inadequate infrastructure in schools. Additionally, girls from marginalized communities, those from low-income families and rural areas, face more barriers to accessing education. 

According to the Indian Human Development Survey, girls from marginalized communities are six times more likely to drop out of school than girls from non-marginalized communities. In conclusion, while progress has been made in promoting girl child education in India, several challenges still exist.

Addressing these challenges requires a multi-faceted approach, including addressing poverty, promoting awareness about the importance of education for girls, ensuring the safety of girls, and providing adequate infrastructure in schools.

The Way Ahead

Focusing on girl child education is crucial for India’s overall development and economic growth. Educated girls contribute to the workforce and earn higher wages, leading to poverty reduction and economic growth. Additionally, educating girls leads to better health outcomes, reduced child marriage rates, and improved gender equality, among other benefits. 

According to a report by the McKinsey Global Institute , if India were to close the gender gap in workforce participation, it could add $700 billion to its economy by 2025. Moving forward, there is a need for continued efforts to promote girl child education in India. 

This includes addressing the challenges mentioned earlier, such as poverty and safety, promoting awareness about the importance of education for girls, and providing adequate infrastructure in schools. Additionally, ensuring access to quality education for all girls, particularly those from marginalized communities, is crucial for achieving gender equality and overall development in India.

She Can Fly initiative of Smile Foundation is aimed at enabling girls to become self-reliant and rise up to their full potential through interventions in education, vocational and skill training, and healthcare and nutrition.

To escape from poverty, earn livelihoods or make extra income many children in India forsake their education and schooling. Many children never even attend school, and if they do, they drop out or leave school early to work elsewhere. Due to these reasons, the literacy rate remains low and leaves many children vulnerable to social and economic exploitation.

1. National Policy on Education, 1986

In an attempt to remove inequalities in the education system, the policy emphasises the importance of special programmes for marginalized groups as such women, scheduled tribes (STs), scheduled castes (SCs), handicapped, etc. Some of the provisions for SCs listed are incentive to families, pre-matric scholarships, constant micro-planning to ensure enrolment, retention and successful completion of SC students, recruitment of SC teachers, hostel provisions for SC students and appropriate location of the school building to facilitate the participation of SCs. Similar provisions are made for STs, including the use of youth teachers and the use of tribal languages at the initial stages.

The Policy identifies the need to pay attention to minority groups and other backward sections of society. Hill, desert and remote areas will be provided with adequate institutional infrastructure. The policy encourages the integration of a handicapped student in the mainstream system but also makes provisions for special schools with hostels if need be. Teachers will also be trained to deal with special difficulties of handicapped children.

Recognising the impact of early years on the development of a child, the policy makes room for early childhood care and education through the Integrated Child Development Services programme. With regard to elementary education, the policy makes three very important commitments: 1. Universal access and enrolment. 2. Universal retention of children up to age 14. 3. A much-needed improvement in the quality of education that allows children to achieve a certain level of learning.

According to the policy, education must be culturally applicable and inculcate values in the children and hence society. There is a need to develop the use of local languages in education. There is a need for low prices books and improvement in library management as well as additional libraries. There are provisions in the policy for work experience as a part of education, population education, using math as a tool to teach analytical thinking, strengthen science education, and support sports, physical education and yoga. The policy called for greater participation of educated youth and revision of the evaluation system so that it does not simple reflects rote learning. It emphasises the importance of teacher training and continuing teacher education. The policy devotes an entire section to overhauling the planning and management system surrounding education at national, state, district and local levels. It outlines that it is both the government and the communities responsibility for providing funds and that inadequate or non-investment is a major problem facing education like the policies before it emphasises a need to raise expenditure to six per cent of the GDP in the Eighth Five Year Plan.

2. The Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act,2009

In 2005 the Central Advisory Board of Education drafted the Right to Education (RTE) Bill and sent it to the Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD) for review. The MHRD, in turn, sent it to the National Advisory Council and the Prime Minister. The bill spent three years being scrutinised by the union government, government ministers and the public. In 2008 there was a new draft placed before, and in September 2009, it was passed by the Union Cabinet, and hence became The Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act, 2009. The main purpose of the act is to outline the provision of quality education for all children between the ages of 6-14 as per the constitutional fundamental right awarded to children in the 86th amendment.

In the first chapter, the act states that the act, once passed by the central government, would be applicable to the entirety of India except for Jammu and Kashmir. Chapter one also defines a number of key terms used in the act. Two terms of utmost importance are 1. Appropriate government: is the central, state or union territory government which is directly in charge of a particular school or area; 2. Local Authority: is a Municipal Corporation or Municipal Council or Zila Parishad or Nagar Panchayat or Panchayat. The act has seven chapters that outline the various powers, roles and responsibilities of the central, state, district and local authorities, as well as teachers and school administrators.

Chapter two is the provisions of the act that calls for free and compulsory education for all children between the ages of 6 and 14. It provides equal opportunities for disabled children. It makes special provisions for children who are not admitted and are above age 6 to be admitted into their age-appropriate class after special training and provides that they be allowed to complete their elementary education even past the age of 14. Any child also has the right to transfer to a school that provides education up to class VIII if it is not provided in the school she is currently enrolled in.

Chapter three begins with a provision that the central and state governments are responsible for establishing schools where one is not available in every area or neighbourhood. It outlines that the central and state governments share the responsibility both financially and others (such as the development of curriculum, training of teachers, etc) required under this act. The appropriate government is responsible for providing free and compulsory education to all children, except those who would choose to enrol in private/ unaided schools. It must ensure no discrimination against children from educationally and socially backward groups, availability of a neighbourhood school, provide necessary infrastructure, provide good quality education, ensure completion of elementary school, and provide curriculum and teachers training. The local authority shares the above responsibilities as well as in charge of the academic calendar, education of children of migrant families, the functioning of the school and maintaining a record of all children up to fourteen years of age in its jurisdiction.

Lastly, it is the responsibility of parents to send their children to school and the appropriate government (which is directly in charge of a school or area) to provide pre-primary (between ages 3-6) education and child care.

In chapter four of the act, there is an outline of school and teacher responsibilities. A government school is required to provide free education to any child that seeks admission. Aided schools, private schools and special schools are required to provide free education to a minimum of 25% of its students, especially those from disadvantaged sections of society. In return, the government is responsible for reimbursing private schools the cost per child that a public school incurs to help aid the free education provided by such schools. But if the private school has received any sort of concession or subsidy, they are not entitled to such reimbursement.

Schools are not allowed to charge capitation fees, screen the children for admission and even though they are allowed to ask for proof of age, they may not deny admission on the basis of lack of proof. No school may hold back or expel a child before their completion of elementary education. There is a prohibition against physical punishment and mental harassment, which, if broken, is liable to disciplinary action. All schools must be registered or given a certificate of recognition by the appropriate government in order to function. This certificate will only be given or maintained if certain norms and standards are upheld. The government can levy charges up to one lakh against schools for continuing to function without a certificate. At this point, it is conveniently added that the central government has the power to change these said: "norms and standards" (given in the schedule at the end of the act) at any point.

The act calls for the establishment of a School Management Committee (SMC), which consists of local authorities, parents or guardians of children admitted in such schools and teachers. The SMC is responsible for monitoring the school and making a school development plan. The school development plan is basically an outline for plans and grants that the appropriate authority should make.

The second section of Chapter four provides guidelines for teachers. Qualifications required by teachers can be set by the authorised academic authority, such as a school headmaster. But the central government can override these minimum qualifications for a period of five years to allow for teachers to gain the appropriate qualifications. This section does not specify the salary and allowances granted to teachers. Teachers are responsible for regular attendance, finishing the curriculum, supplementing learning in the classroom, and meeting with parents/guardians of the child on a regular basis.

There are three interesting clauses in this section. Teacher vacancies shall not exceed 10% of the total strength of teachers in a specific school. The number of teachers required is described in the schedule. Public school teachers may not engage in private tuitions for private gain but must participate in "decennial population census, disaster relief duties or duties relating to elections to the local authority or the State Legislatures or Parliament" (section 27-28 of this act).

Chapter five does not outline the specifics of curriculum and evaluation procedure but simply says it is the role of the authorised (by the appropriate government) academic authority. The authorized academic authority is required to look after the development of the child, the values of the constitution, the mother tongue of the child, the mental and physical well being of the child, allowing for anxiety and fear-free expression of each child and evaluating and understanding each child's knowledge and ability. Under this section, no child will be subject to a board examination but will receive a certification on completion of elementary education.

In chapter six, this act holds the National and State Commissions for the Protection of Child Rights responsible for upholding the right to education specified in the act and other rights under section 4 of the Commissions for Protection of Child Rights Act, 2006. They are responsible for addressing grievances that have come beyond the local authority. This section also provides for the establishment of the National Advisory Council, whose members are responsible for upholding this act.

Chapter seven provides a detailed description of the powers of the various levels to issue directions to the authorities below them, for example, from central to state government. It also establishes that there is no prosecution taken without the sanction of an authorised officer for violating the school certification requirements and the capitation fee ban. This section adds the disclaimer that the government and all other bodies acting on its behalf are free from prosecution if their actions are in 'good faith. The appropriate government is also given powers to make rules on a variety of areas such as the special training for children currently not enrolled, the area or neighbourhood limits, the duties of teachers, the allowances and terms and conditions of members of the National Advisory Board. All rules must be laid before and passed by both houses of parliament (in the case of the central government) and state legislatures (in the case of the state government).

At the end of the act, there is a schedule that outlines the number of teachers, building facilities, hours of the teachers, library and additional equipment required in each school.

Child Education Case Study : 

Journey from child labour towards education for a brighter future

During an outreach, a CHILDLINE team member noticed two young boys working at a restaurant. The team member began conversing with the boys and found out that they were aged 15 and 16 years old and belonged to two different neighbouring villages. Both boys revealed that they go to school but also work on alternate days to get extra income. The CHILDLINE team co-ordinator counselled the boys and conveyed to them that their parents are working hard for them to study and not for them to labour. The coordinator advised the boys to focus on their education and study hard. The CHILDLINE team member made them understand that if they study hard, they would a get a well paying job four to five years down the line. Further, their employer was given CHILDLINE India Foundation pamphlets and informed about its services. The team members also made the employer aware about the offence of child labour and told him not to employ children. The vendor ensured that he would not employ children and would inform CHILDLINE India Foundation if some other person does. The CHILDLINE team co-ordinator visited the shop again but the boys were not found. Then the CHILDLINE team co-ordinator went to homes of both the boys and informed about services provided by them. The parents of one of the boy informed the CHILDLINE team co-ordinator that the child is in 9th standard and want him to be a police officer one day. The coordinator advised the child to focus on studies and fulfil his parent’s dream. When the coordinator met with the second boy’s mother, she requested the CHILDLINE member to visit the boy’s school and request his teacher to contact her in case the boy did not attend school. The CHILDLINE co-ordinator along with both boys visited their schools and met with their teachers. The teachers were requested to inform the homes of both boys if they don’t attend school. The teachers were informed about CHILDLINE India Foundation services and were requested to take care of the boys as well.

The cloud of neglect was heavy. The story changed with the ‘IIMPACT Girl Child Education Programme’. Girl literacy shot up by 15%, with decreasing instances of child marriage and child labour with parents welcoming the transformation. Even the village boys have taken cue from the girls and have enrolled for schooling.

Service, food all good but even by Moscow standards it was very expensive Best in summer for being outside

I had breakfast at the restaurant. Atmoshere, service, food are great. Especcially i liked Eggs Benedetto and Cottage cheese fritters Thank you.

Good rating is due to the beautiful terrace at third floor. Food and fruit cocktails were also very good, but I recommend the place only to people with a high budget.

We had dinner with our friends at this restaurant. The place was overcrowded and management did not provide any clear information if they have a stand-by-list or not. It seemed the staff had been evaluating your wealthy and provided available tables for whom who could spend a lot of money on food and drinks. In fifteen minutes we grabbed an available table and had been waiting for 30 minutes to be served. Drinks arrived very quickly, but we should wait 90 minutes before our food arrived. The food was very good - no complaints about it. The atmosphere was mixed. There were a lot of people who wanted to bee seen. This place provides karaoke and you should listen singing of drunk people - there is no separate area for them. It was annoying. Anyway, I recommend this restaurant if you like good food and new atmosphere does not bother you. Choice is yours!
