Visit a Floating Market in Vietnam

Hop aboard a river boat for a cruise along Halong Bay on the 14-day Exodus Travels Classic Vietnam & Angkor tour (July 29, 2019; $2,649). Take in the limestone karst scenery, then enjoy a refreshing dip in the emerald waters and kayak during golden hour. In Hoi An, hike to the top of Marble Mountain, which houses caves that once served as a hospital base to the Viet Cong. Step back in time at the Cai Be floating market, where merchants continue to trade fruit on the Mekong River. Prefer wildlife viewing? In Africa, sleep under millions of stars from the comfort of a luxe tent on the 11-day Wild Botswana adventure (Aug 21, 2019; $8,549). Binoculars are encouraged on the search for hyenas, lions, reedbucks and eland from a 4WD vehicle. Stop at Chobe National Park, home to the highest concentration of elephants in the world, before heading out on the Chobe river for a boat safari. Itching to explore by bike, instead? Discover the fairytale-like architecture of the Baltics from two wheels on the 11-day Cycle the Baltics tour (July 20, 2019; $1,899). Tackle three countries by bike: Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, cycling from Tallinn to Vilnius. Peddle through National Park Lahemaa, where the Baltic Coast gives way to marshes and moose spotting opportunities. Journey onwards to Riga, the largest capital city of Latvia, where wooden buildings and art nouveau architecture adorns the streets. For a change of pace, explorers will dig their toes in the sand at a seaside resort in Jurmala, before peddling on to the Trakai Castle.
