    Dear Traveler,

    We have a long-standing commitment to the natural world, and are known for our expeditionsinto wildness. So, we are uniquely equipped when turning our sights on human history and

    culture to integrate the two to see how the civilization were regarding was shaped by its

    surrounding nature. And that is what makes our uniquely designed

    history and culture itineraries so rewarding to so many the artful

    balance between sightseeing, and time out in beautiful natural

    surroundings to reect and truly absorb the experiences in a life-

    enhancing way.

    Because life-enhancement is truly the point of the expeditions

    contained here. Many of us of a certain age can remember the lm title(if not the lm) If Its Tuesday, It Must Be Belgium.If you remember,

    the title became idiomatic shorthand to refer to the sort of rushed,

    mindless travel rooted in consuming a string of destinations and

    returning home, breathless and bewildered.

    Each of the itineraries featured here contains a sequence and a rhythm

    that is the antithesis of rushed, mindless or consumption-oriented.

    Each is about the manifold pleasures of a given geography. About not

    only seeing, but apprehending a place with all your senses so you

    can authentically claim to have been there.Our History & Culture expeditions offer the opportunity to see, do and

    learn and to be transformed in some way by the simple act of having

    traveled, having reected and having absorbed more of the worlds prismatic wonders.

    I think you will nd our expeditions satisfying on many levels. On behalf of our expedition

    teams, I look forward to the prospect of welcoming you aboard soon.

    All the best,
