Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam – Ho Chi Minh City covers an area of more than 800 square miles, stretching westward from the South China Sea to the Cambodian border. Its land is overwhelmingly rural, dotted with villages and clusters of houses set amidst rice paddies. The downtown section is still known as Saigon, and it is here the economic changes sweeping Vietnam and their social implications are more evident.

Kobe, Japan – One of the first cities in Japan opened to trade, Kobe has a cosmopolitan air that includes a venerable Chinatown and a section of 19^th-Century Western-style buildings in the Kitano neighborhood. The city’s history began in the 3^rd-Century with the construction of the Ikuta Shrine. Many visitors ascend Mt. Rokko via the Shin-Kobe Ropeway, for panoramic views over the city and the glass domed Nunobiki Herb Garden on the slopes. Kobe is also the gateway to the Kansai district and offers day-trip access to the fabled Torri of Kyoto.

Honolulu, Hawaii, U.S. – Honolulu offers an array of cultures that blend harmoniously, allowing each to retain its distinct flavor. The downtown sector combines Hawaii's royal history with the modern-day action of a major metropolitan center. Waikiki Beach, with its impressive hotels and glittering atmosphere, is a famous tourist hub and resort destination of international renown. Honolulu is also the location of Diamond Head, Oahu's famous volcanic landmark, and Pearl Harbor, the largest natural harbor in Hawaii and the only naval base in the United States to be designated a National Historical Landmark.

Yokohama, Japan –The port of Yokohama provides seamless access to Tokyo, Japan’s capital and the most populous city on earth. Guests can peruse the historic and immaculate Imperial Palace and Gardens before hitching an enchanting rickshaw ride through the lanterns and statues of the Asakusa district and its Sensoji Temple. The city is filled with oddities such as the Skytree Tower and the Tokyo Dome entertainment complex.

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico –Puerto Vallarta offers the delights of long, white sand beaches, temperate waters, lush green mountains rising sharply from the shore, and riotous mariachi bands. The arrival of a major studio film company and two of the world's best-known stars (Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton) quickly changed Puerto Vallarta into one of Mexico's major Pacific resorts.

Cartagena, Columbia - Situated in a bay on the Caribbean Sea, Cartagena had the most extensive fortifications in South America, once guarded by 29 stone forts and a high wall of coral-stone measuring 16-miles long, 40-feet high and 50-feet wide. Completed in 1657, the Castle of San Felipe de Barajas is said to be the most grandiose work of military architecture erected by Spain in the Americas. Today, Cartagena's riches are found in the Boca Grande, an area of the city with beautiful waterfront hotels, trendy restaurants, casinos and boutiques.
