Myths and legends are a frequent, dominant feature of destinations and travel lore in South East Asian destinations. Urbane Nomads takes these myths and legends, creating itineraries that alternately highlight socio-political issues( as does our 'Divine Feminine Tour' that traces the legend of the sea goddess Nyai Loro Kidul, who acts as patron goddess for the bird's nest gatherers on coastal Java who frequently risk their lives in their quest to find bird's nest in oceanside caves) or leads to a better understanding of recent contemporary history, as does our itinerary to Vietnam, which has guests meditating or engaging in a private yoga session in a cave formerly used as an arms repository during the Vietnam War.
