"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." - Mark Twain

BBC History will once again be creating a dedicated travel supplement for 2014. Working in association with Lonely Planet, we have selected some of the world’s most unique cultural experiences to help inspire our readers to plan their trips of a lifetime and discover some of the worlds greatest secrets. Working alongside leading historians and Journalists we have selected a range of experiences to suit every type of traveller, to those looking for culture and relaxation, to those looking for adventure in the hope of uncovering ancient mysteries. The supplement will provide a great opportunity to reach a highly affluent and passionate audience, with cultural discovery the top of their travel plans for 2014.
