With such a diverse range of cultural traditions, history and natural wonders, there’s always something new to discover in our Exotics destinations. That’s why we continually revise and enhance our journeys, along with introducing exciting new itineraries, so that you will experience a comprehensive look at the destinations you travel to with Tauck. For 2012, we’ve made significant changes to our safari in Tanzania, Australia and New Zealand, and Essence of Japan and are introducing our 8-day Spotlight on Vietnam. In addition, we’re thrilled to present two new journeys that explore, in-depth, places that are endlessly fascinating.
Indochina: Vietnam, Cambodia & Laos – 16 Days Saltwater roads, inland waterways and ancient temples provide incomparable settings for this new 16-day trip that celebrates the essence of Indochina. Enjoy an overnight cruise on a traditional “junk” in mystical Ha Long Bay, lined with sculpted limestone islands. Spend two nights at an oceanfront resort in Nha Trang, inviting with beaches, delicate coral reefs and riverside villages, and experience the floating markets of Mekong River towns. In Cambodia, Angkor Wat and the Killing Fields chronicle days past, and in Laos, monks, monuments and a well-wishing ceremony immerse with cultural traditions. See page 16 for details.

Turkey, Land of Contrasts – 12 Days Turkey straddles two continents with sights and lifestyles that are both ancient and modern. In Istanbul, guided city sightseeing reveals a Blue Mosque, marble Hagia Sofia, a Grand Bazaar, opulent Topkapi Palace – and the present day home and views of a local artist. Izmir and Sardis inspire with commercial ingenuity that dates back 3,000 years. The Turkish Riviera, home to one of the richest cities in the ancient world, along with tea gardens and statues, is still an “it” destination for worldly travelers. Stone Age marvels compete with today’s Turkish coffee in Antalya. Konya never fails to evoke spiritual ecstasy in its art and architecture, and the landscapes of fairy-tale Goreme Valley – and a performance by the Whirling Dervishes – will make your head spin.
