Visit the fabled lands where camel caravans crisscrossed for millennia, making a brisk trade in silk, ivory, gems, and precious metals. In Mali, fly to legendary Timbuktu and drink tea with the nomadic Tuaregs, or visit the ancient city of Djenné and marvel at the architecture and culture of the Bozo people. In Egypt, explore the monumental achievements of great pharaohs at Luxor and you may also fly deep into the Western Sahara to experience an ancient way of life at Siwa Oasis. In Jordan, step through the sacred halls of the great city built by the mysterious Nabataeans or venture to Wadi Rum, where the Bedouin have lived in peaceful isolation in a lunar-like valley since time immemorial. In India, marvel at the timeless beauty of the Taj Mahal. And in Bhutan, delight in the spectacular sweep of this tiny kingdom in the Himalaya and discover a fascinating Buddhist culture that has changed very little over the ages.
