Set off on an extraordinary new journey inspired by the “50 Places of a Lifetime” selected by National Geographic Traveler magazine in its October 2009 and 1999 special issues. We invite you to join Traveler’s Editor in Chief Keith Bellows, National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence Wade Davis, and National Geographic photographer Chris Rainier on the trip of a lifetime, on a journey that takes you to thirteen of these great treasures. Traveling in the comfort of a private jet, experience the wildlife of the Serengeti and the Amazon Rain Forest, and explore the Lost City of Petra and China’s Great Wall. Delve into enchanting Istanbul, and discover some of the planet’s most exquisite stretches: coastal Vietnam, the South Pacific paradise of the Cook Islands, and the coral reefs of Papua New Guinea.
