There’s “off the beaten path” ... and then there is this journey around the world, designed by travel icon Geoffrey Kent to shine an inspiring new light on some truly extraordinary places, each offering its own vision of paradise on earth. In the Cook Islands, it’s black pearls and a chance to swim in clear waters alive with sea turtles and fish. Australia is about world-famous wine and wildlife, while Indonesia introduces you to an all but vanished species of rhino. India is a mix of strong local flavors and European architecture, Mozambique offers unbeatable snorkeling and fishing, and Cote d'Ivoire gets you hands-on with traditional crafts in a thoroughly modern backdrop. Cap your journey with a tasting of Portugal's signature Madeira wine in the city where it was born. Along the way, you’re treated to beachside barbecues, exclusive performances of local music and dance, and expert-led excursions that take you directly into the heart of destinations you will cherish forever after.
