As the rest of the world pushes mercilessly forward, some small towns and villages have managed to preserve their ancient and beautiful ways of life despite it all. Just hours after departing some of the world's most modern cities, you will find yourself in a tranquil village where life seems to move at a slower pace. Consider a visit to the Maasai community of Kenya and Tanzania, or a day with the indigenous tribes of the Amazon; see how the Pacific Islanders practice their centuries-old customs and traditions; or head to the fishing villages of the Indochina Peninsula or the Asian backcountry. You can even tour the small villages throughout Europe, where Renaissance artists and early impressionists were inspired. Let us know when you're ready to start planning your adventure to these remote villages!
