In this sprawling, continent-spanning city you can walk the streets where crusaders and janissaries once marched; admire mosques that are the most sublime architectural expressions of Islamic piety; peer into the sultan's harem; and hunt for bargains in the Kapali Carsi.

Apart from Russia, no other country can stake such a proud claim to bridging 'the East and the West' like <b>Turkey</b>, which sits astride two continents. There are more Roman archaeological sites than in all of Italy, and more ancient Greek ruins available for viewing by the public than in Greece. The history from the Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Ottomans, and finally the modern Turkish nation are all on display here, and the Turkish vacation experience can encompass everything from being in the hustle and bustle of a metropolis, to attending a whirling dervish dance ceremony, to sunning yourself on the country's beautiful shores, to climbing mountains and skiing at top resorts, to enjoying an iconic hot-air balloon ride over the Fairy Chimneys of Cappadocia.
<b>The Seychelles</b>, just off the coast of Kenya and to the north and east of Madagascar, is one of Africa's gems. With a unique biosphere, much of the island chain is a conservation zone, and it is home to dozens of flora and fauna species that cannot be found anywhere else in the world. Five decades ago, tourism arrived in the Seychelles, and today there are dozens of resorts scattered across its 115 islands. If you are looking for a top-notch luxury vacation experience, ranging from your very own villa with its own private beach, to butler service, you can find it all here in the Seychelles.
