The Great Courses are offering several travel courses to help prepare for trips or do armchair traveling.
Three of the courses I Thought looked very good include:
-Rome in the Time of Caesars
-Exploring Southern Italy’s History, Art, and Archaeology
-Ancient Treasures of Turkey
Information about these courses follows:

I have used Great Courses to study photography, macroeconomics, nutrition, and tai chi and qigong and have been happy with the course offerings.
It is fun to browse through their entire course catalog.
