Cultural travel
A cultural tour
In addition to the varied natural beauty in the different continents, each continent offers cultural treasures that are unique to the rest of the world. During a cultural tour, extra attention is paid to these treasures.
Take the Mayan culture in Central America or the impressive Inca heritage in Peru. Beautiful colonial cities in South America with historical centers that have been named UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Meet indigenous peoples like the Tarahumara Indians at the Copper Cañon in Mexico, the traditional Qeuchua and Aymara communities and their colorful markets in Peru or the cholitas, the distinctive Bolivian Indian women with their beautifully embroidered skirts (polleras) and black bowler hats.
While Africa is probably equivalent to vast savannas with large flocks of wildlife, the continent also hosts a number of invaluable cultural highlights. Visit the king cities in Morocco and the countless kasbahs. The greatest attraction of West Africa is the huge variety of culture. Many different population groups still live here very traditionally. Think of the Ashanti from Ghana,the Tamberma from Togo with their characteristic 'mud castles' or the Bamileke kingdoms in the grasslands of Cameroon. How about a trek with Masai warriors or Samburu, Swahili culture on Zanzibar or a visit to the Himbas in Namibia?
Travelling through Asia, enjoy the delicious cuisine, stunning temple complexes and colourful festivals. Be initiated into the ways of life of the ethnic peoples in the mountain areas or in those of the nomadic Bedouins in the desert. Marvel at Japan's whimsy, where centuries-old traditions live alongside high-end technology, where shinkansen continue alongside the silent zen gardens and onsen.
Every continent has its share of cultural heritage to offer. Australia is home to aboriginal culture, in North America you will find a melting pot of cultures through music and the Inuit in the Arctic still live according to ancient traditions. And Europe is also full of culture.
