“One of my favorite travel memories is seeing the sun rise over Machu Picchu. This exclusive, small-group tour overnights at the deluxe Belmond Sanctuary Lodge, right next to the entrance gates of the Machu Picchu, allowing you to explore the ruins during the quiet time of sunrise and sunset.”

I loved the experiences of floating on the Dead Sea, having lunch with the Druze in their isolated village, walking the walled city of Jerusalem, witnessing the three religious denominations inhabiting the Church of the Holy Sepulchre and walking in the fresh air outside our hotel on the beach. All the hotels were so outstanding and well situated that our adventures were truly 24/7.”
