Adventure Divas - Travel Videos.  4-Volume Set.

Mystic Lands Gift Set (6 Volumes) - Travel Videos.  Mystic Lands.

Review:  This is a series of documentaries on various cultures and sacred places: Varanasi, India; the Taj Mahal; Haitian voodoo; Hinduism on Bali; Burma; Peru; Egypt; Jerusalem; Greece; Australian aboriginal tradition; the Anasazi ruins in the American Southwest; and Tantric Buddhism in Bhutan.  They are each about 25 minutes long.

   They don't presuppose any knowledge of the religions they cover.  But far more remarkably, they don't oversimplify and very rarely mislead or descend into shallow sentimentality.  They maintain fairness to the traditions as well as historical accuracy without condescension.

   The ones on Burma, Haiti, Varanasi and Peru are especially good; Jerusalem and Egypt are perhaps a little weak.  Few documentaries about religious topics would receive this high of a rating from me.  These are genuinely good.  300 minutes ( = 5 hours)

Gardens of the World - Travel Video.  6 Volume Boxed Set.  Goldhil Home Media.

Roses and Rose Gardens

Host Audrey Hepburn leads a glorious adventure with the rose, the world’s most popular flower.  Starting with the French ideal of a rose garden at La Roseraie de l’Hays les Roses to the magic of the unsurpassed collection of old roses at Mottisfont Abbey in Hampshire, England, the rose claims its rightful place as the ultimate flower of legend, romance and beauty.  Special guest appearance by world renowned author and rosarian, Graham Stuart Thomas.

Tulips and Spring Bulbs

The vast, colorful bulb fields of our host, Audrey Hepburn’s native Holland, are only a small part of a complex cultural phenomenon. Here, bulbs are intertwined with the history and art of an entire country.  The transformation from sleeping bulb to elegant bloom is miraculous, Hepburn notes. Narcissus, hyacinth, muscari and bluebells share the stage with the favorite, the tulip, for a grand tour of spring blooms at the spectacular Keukenhof in Holland and Chenics Manor, in England, and more.

Formal Gardens

Audrey Hepburn travels through the rich evolution of formal garden design in some of the world’s most spectacular settings-from the Renaissance gardens of Italy (Villa Gamberaia, Villa Lante, Villa La Pietra), the grand 17th century gardens of France (Chateau de Courances, Versailles) to the lushy planted 20th century gardens of England (Hidcote Manor, Tintinhull House).  Special guest appearance by famed garden authority, Penelope Hobhouse.

Flower Gardens

Perhaps no garden in the world exhibits a more exhilarating use of flowers than Claude Monet’s garden at Giverny.  Monet’s exuberant palette of colors strikingly contrasts with the grace and elegance of the classic perennial borders found at Tintinhull House in Somerset, England.  The native flora of America’s southeast further illustrate the range of aesthetics and pleasure found in the world’s most beautiful flower gardens.  Special guest appearances by famed garden authority, Penelope Hobhouse.

Country Gardens
The pleasure of a country garden-heavy with smell, taste and touch – has captured the imagination of artists and poets for centuries.  Audrey Hepburn explores several of the world’s most beautiful country-gardens – among them, the romantic Giradino del Ninfa, south of Rome; charming cottage gardens in England; the farmhouse hardens surrounding Chilcombe House in Dorset, U.K.)  Guest appearance by John Brookes, garden designer and author, and American garden designer Ryan Gainey.

Public Gardens and Trees

Host Audrey Hepburn explores the beautifully restored gardens at Mt. Vernon, originally created for the private pleasures of one of America’s first great gardeners, George Washington.  This garden stands today as one of America’s most charming public gardens. Audrey Hepburn presents the diversity and wealth of public gardens in the city of Paris – among them, intimate ‘pocket parks,’ former grand royal gardens and spectacular pleasure gardens.  All this and more in “Public Gardens and Trees.”  165 minutes.

Wonders Of The Deep - Travel Video.  Madacy Video.   Boxed Set of 10 Videos, VHS or DVD.  Ten full hours of viewing pleasure.  A fabulous undersea odyssey collection Including (see the descriptions below the image):

Volume 1 - Borneo & The South China Sea.  Wonders of the Deep contains two video cassettes, each about an hour in length.  The content and structure of these videos is very much like what you would find on Discovery or the Nature Channel.  The first cassette chronicles a trip to Sipidan, a Malaysian island off the coast of Borneo, and to Layang Layang, a man-made atoll in the South China Sea.  Both sites offer a spectacular diversity of marine life.
   The second cassette features Florida cave diving and diving off of Key Largo. The cave diving is fascinating in that it is fresh-water diving in caverns underneath the State of Florida.  120 minutes

Volume 2 - Hawaii, Kauai, Egypt & The Sinai Peninsula.  120 minutes

Volume 3 - Emerald Sea, British Columbia Shipwreck.  120 minutes

Volume 4 - U.S. Virgin Islands, British Virgin Islands.  120 minutes

Volume 5 - Costa Rica, Cocos Islands, & The Galapagos.

This is a 2 tape set with 4 shows from the Wonders of the Deep series.  The first tape contains a show on Costa Rica and the Cocos Islands showing both topside and underwater excitement and all the reasons this is a top diving destination.
The second tape is Australia and the Great Barrier Reef... need we say more!  Scuba divers and non-divers will enjoy these tapes for sure.  It is sort of a "travel agent type" format and you will enjoy everything from the swimming with hammerheads in Cocos waters to great whites in Australia.  120 minutes.  VHS or DVD
 

The 5-volume set is no longer available, but the 4-volume and 3-volume sets (shown below) are still available)
