AFRICA &

INDIAN OCEAN

The Wonders of Egypt, Jordan, and the Arabian Peninsula

From ancient Athens to the beaches of Eilat, or gleaming Dubai to the temples and Bollywood manses of Mumbai, explore the Med, the Red and the Arabian seas. These journeys trace the storied spice routes of old, traveling back to the earliest roots of civilization — and forward to modern cities marking their vault into the future. You’ll visit landmarks sacred and secular, settlements grand and humble, landscapes lush and arid. You might swim with turtles in Oman, sip fresh-pressed olive oil in Crete, experience the morning light in Petra, or wander the souks of Dubai. What you  won’t do is spend even a minute underwhelmed.
