Bolivia

Two weeks visiting the highest capital on earth- La Paz; Lake Titicaca and its Moon and Sun Island; Tiwanacu ruins, one of the oldest civilizations in the Americas and still a mystery to archeologists. Sucre and Potosi, declared Patrimony of Mankind by the United Nations.  Uyuni Salt Pans, the largest in the world – a sea of salt, in a fantasy world of its own. It looks like an endless frozen over lake or a white expanse of desert.

Croatia: One week cruising from Dubrovnik to Split. One week overland to Zagreb through Montenegro.

With over a 1000 islands in the Adriatic to explore, innumerable bays and coves, glorious unspoiled beaches, crystal clear turquoise waters, magnificent mountain views, delicious gastronomy, 8 beautiful National Parks brimming with wildlife and a Mediterranean climate balmy enough to grow palms, vines and olives, it is not difficult to see why Croatia is a very popular holiday destination. One of the best ways to enjoy the Dalmatian Islands is on a traditionally built, wooden sailing gullet—our specialty! Join me in this visit to the country I was born in and where I still have many personal friends! 

Northern Argentina and Chile:
​Famous vineyards and ancient trade routes.

We will start in Santiago, Chile and visit the wineries of the Santa Cruz area crossing the Andes to Northern Argentina’s less traveled paths. From Mendoza’s celebrated wine region we will continue into the delightful colonial cities of Salta and Tucuman staying in historical wineries and haciendas. Before the coastal areas were developed by the Spaniards, this was the most heavily populated region of what is now modern Argentina. Rich in cultural, historical and archaeological significance, the provinces of Salta and Jujuy offer much to artists, travelers, historians and seekers of rest and relaxation. We will offer an extension to Bolivia and beautiful Lake Titicaca.

Egypt

Two weeks discovering the essence of this ancient land from Cairo and the Great Pyramids to a traditional sailing along the sacred Nile to Aswan. Experience the nomadic life in a remote desert camp. Extension to Syria or Malta, if possible.
