Exotic Locales
Galapágos Islands
For the nature lover, this is a destination that deserves to be on
your “A”List! These islands straddle the equator about 600 miles off
of the Pacific coast of Ecuador in South America. National Park
takes up 97% of the Galapagos land mass. We offer tours or cruises
to help you explore. According to Patricia Schultz, the author of
1,000 Places to See Before You Die, “A modern traveler’s rule of
thumb: Visit the most fragile places first; stay on the trails;
disturb nothing. Nowhere does this apply more than to the
fifty-eight fascinating islands and cays of the Galápagos
archipelago …”. For more information:

South Pacific
Whether you like pristine, secluded
beaches, world-class cultural events, mouth-watering wines or
visiting glow worm caves, you’ll find all this and more in the South
Pacific. Tours and cruises often combine visits to Australia, New
Zealand, Tahiti, Indonesia, Fiji and more for a dream-come-true
experience.
Australia
Australia offers up not only the Great
Barrier Reef and Sydney with its famous landmark opera house but an
ancient forest with some of the oldest living plants in the world in
the Blue Mountains. A personal favorite is Cape Tribulation where
the oldest living rain forest on earth meets up with the Great
Barrier Reef. Wine lovers will want to pay a visit to the Barossa
Valley.
Asia
Where to begin in exploring Asia? China? Japan? Vietnam? Thailand?
Each country has its own culture and diversity. Why not join a tour
that covers several regions? We’ve been to many areas of Asia and
can offer some great suggestions so that you make the most of your
journey there.
Africa
What a grand continent to explore! Safaris in the Masai Mara in
Kenya, Tracking mountain gorillas in Uganda. The Cape Winelands and
breath-taking scenery along the Garden Route in South Africa.
Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania. Who hasn’t dreamed of a trek
in Timbuktu? And don’t forget Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe and Zambia.
(Wonder if this is the only Z-to-Z border in the world??)
Not sure where to begin? We’ll help custom-tailor a trip just for
you. All you’ll have to worry about is packing your bags and
snapping plenty of photos to show the folks back home.
Holy Land / Middle-East / Israel
For four thousand years, Jerusalem has been the holiest of cities
for Judaism, Christianity and Islam. History, anthropology, art,
religion and culture combine here to draw you in. Masada , a
palace complex built by Herod the Great, serves as a memorial to the
mass suicide committed by the 987 Jewish men, women and children
after defying their Roman attackers here for 3 years in 73 AD. The
Dead Sea is a not-to-be-missed experience where the extreme salt in
the water causes ultra-buoyancy and you can float with no effort!
Dubai
Not far from Israel is Dubai ... a place you have to see to believe.
A place of superlatives in many senses, from the over-the-top
architecture of the Burj Al Arab to the phenomenal shopping, it’s no
wonder Dubai has its place in 1,000 Places To See Before You
Die.
Egypt
Egypt is home to the Great Pyramids of Giza, one of the great
wonders of the world. A much different look at Egypt can be found
under water by diving in the Red Sea with its diverse marine life.
Incredible India
Visit the culturally rich city of Delhi, the wondrously opulent Taj
Mahal in Agra, and the "purple" city of Jaipur. India has so much to
see! The twin palaces, Lake Palace and City Palace, in Udaipur are
just two of the many palaces here. India is truly a country of
contrasts where you may ride a camel and dine in a gourmet
restaurant all in one day.
Adventure into the Himalayas!
OK, so the Himalayas aren't exactly the first thing that comes to
mind when the average traveler is planning a vacation. But, if
you're reading this, chances are you're pretty far from the average
traveler, and you have a sense of adventure and discovery that melds
perfectly with this type of destination and all it encompasses. We
can hook you up with the best company to take you there and make the
most of your experience. So if your dream is to climb Mount Everest,
we can help you make it happen!
