It’s a tale of two islands as our small group journeys from New Zealand’s north to its south, through lively cities and pristine fjords, past lush farmland and enchanted forests in a land where the outdoors is the national shrine. Add engaging “Kiwis” and intriguing indigenous cultures — it’s a pure New Zealand experience.
Tap into the pulse of this wondrous landscape, from modern Singapore and stunning Malaysia to Bangkok’s colorful canals and Angkor’s mystifying ruins, hidden inside twisting jungles. Experience daily life while interacting with local families and artisans, scour ancient grounds where legends echo beneath stone temples and glide by flooded paddy fields on the elegant Eastern & Oriental Express.
Accompanied by an expert Egyptian guide, this singular small group journey through antiquity travels from vibrant Cairo and the Great Pyramids to Abu Simbel and the Upper Nile for a fascinating cruise on Lake Nasser. Lastly, enjoy a classic voyage along the Lower Nile from Aswan to Luxor. Discover fabled “rose red” Petra, ancient Jerash and Amman with an optional five-day/four-night post-tour Jordan extension.
