Treasure Cay Abacos The Bahamas
THE BAHAMAS
The "Goombay" Summer Festival, Spanish Wells' pink sand beaches, the Exumas Land and Sea Park to Frances and Jeanne, two category III hurricanes, in the space of 20 days ... In the Bahamas, there's lots more than beautiful water. However, the crystal clear, aquamarine water is magnificent.
Marine Iguana Galapagos Islands Ecuador
ECUADOR
​Sitting on the equator and South America's west coast is the land of the Inca, the Andes, Amazon rainforest, beautiful beaches and the world's best known nature preserve.  Join us as we explore UNESCO World Heritage sites, take a train ride along the "Avenue of the Volcanoes" and get up close and personal with an interesting cast of characters from the animal world.

Mayan Women Antigua Guatemala
GUATEMALA
​From Guatemala City (the largest city in Central America) to Antigua, the 17th century capital of the "Kingdom of Guatemala" and on to the ruins of the ancient cities of Tikal and Yaxha … An adventure that started as a trip to explore ancient Mayan ruins became a journey of discovery that changed the way we see the world.
Giant Redwoods Sequoia National Park California
NORTH AMERICA
An 11,000 mile road trip:, Quebec City's sidewalk cafes, camping north of Lake Superior, the Canadian Rockies' Banff and Lake Louise, California's Redwood Forests and "Drinks with Legs" in New Orleans.  We sail Annapolis to Miami via the Intra-coastal waterway and experience the beauty and civility of a rural America few get to see.

Statuary at entrance to Luxor Temple Egypt
EGYPT
Trains, planes, buses, felucca, hot air balloon and a donkey cart, travel the length of the Egyptian Nile from Abu Simbel near the Sudanese border, to Alexandria on the Mediterranean; then retrace Alexander the Great's journey to find the Oracle of Amun ... Over a month we traveled the length and breadth of the oldest tourist destination on the planet.
Picture
MADAGASCAR
The "Great Red Island" - Madagascar, it's a Conservation International bio-diversity hotspot.  Two months of travel across this fascinating island introduced us to much more than Lemurs.  From regions where it rains once every two to three years to the coast where they still build boats with only hand tools.  Learn just how artistic and resourceful the Malagasy people are.
