For those bored with the mundane travel experiences of African safaris and helicopter rides over Antarctica, you can now sign up with a British company for a guided tour of Mogadishu, Somalia.
The tour includes the Italian colonial architecture, markets and beaches as well as the sites of the "Battle of Mogadishu" dramatized in "Black Hawk Down."
The projected cost starts at 1,000 GBP (approx. $1590.) per person for two nights including meals, accommodations and security guards.
Note: the Somalia tour needs pre-sign ups before the firm can update the itinerary on the site. The above details were gathered from an article in the London Financial Times. Here is the link to the article http://www.ft.com/intl/cms/s/2/ad0c5fac-2a6d-11e2-99bb-00144feabdc0.html#axzz2CZvE9ggG
