Our worldly progress should enable our modern traveler
to absorb cultural aspects of each destination in comfort
and at a leisurely pace unheard of when David Niven, as
Phileas Fogg, and Cantinflas, as Passepartout, journeyed
abroad for Twentieth-Century Fox.
All references to special events, lunches, dinners,
teas, tours of museums, hosts, and the like are purely
hypothetical. Similarly, all charitable donations are
suggestions only and do not imply requirements
imposed or requested by the venues or the charities.
All is hypothetical. I am suggesting that in the course of
such a splendid adventure the affluent traveler interact
philanthropically, thereby leaving their mark on the civic
culture of the various destinations.
This dream HYLAND itinerary is a suggested, ideal
itinerary of a trip around the world, the precise details
of which are best left to a discerning, well-informed
travel agent, such as Lindblad, 877-976-9144 and
Abercrombie and Kent, 888-611-4711, whose
connections are both global and local. Each
experienced traveler and their agent must make their
own determinations regarding all travel arrangements.
Activities will be impacted by the season in which you
choose to travel.
Author Karen Blixen's favorite motto, Navigare necesse
est, vivere non est necesse (To sail is necessary, to live is
not) should be our guiding thought.
Let's go.
