What a Wonderful World

MACHU PICCHU

Whether you reach this remote site at the end of a trek along the Inca Trail or combine it with a visit to the Galapagos Islands, your first sight of this mysterious citadel high in the Peruvian Andes is guaranteed to be unforgettable.

CHRIST THE REDEEMER, RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL

While Christ keeps watch over Rio it’s easy to be caught up in the clamour of Carnaval or the glamour of the beaches – but make time to experience mighty Iguassu Falls and the rich wildlife of the Amazon.

CHICHEN ITZA, MEXICO

This stone-stepped pyramid is one of the great sites of the Maya world – but it’s only a fragment of all Mexico has to offer: food, fiestas, colonial architecture and a wealth of cultural attractions.

TAJ MAHAL, AGRA, INDIA

The Taj’s romantic marble curves highlight the splendour of Northern India’s Moghul architecture and Rajasthani romance – complete the picture by adding Jaipur, Udaipur and Delhi.

GREAT WALL OF CHINA

Along with the incredible Terracotta Warriors, the wall is a reminder that China has been a mighty force for over two millennia.

PETRA, JORDAN

If it’s good enough for Indiana Jones… the Rose-Red City wows all who wend their way along the narrow Siq to gasp at their first glimpse of the Treasury.
