They stated that retracing Marco Polo's route made them feel like a very wealthy man, not in monetary terms but rich in life experience. They didn't want to do this very any money, they wanted to feel the adventure that Marco Polo did and they accomplished that.

I would most likely visit Mongolia mainly because of how they said that that was their favorite place to visit. I also think that it'd be cool to go there since we just learned about it and everything. They aren't the same people they were before and they seem nice people from the video.

Denis and Francis said this place felt like the 13th century. They wanted to sail but kept getting denied for a while. Then they went on the news and got a free ride in a cargo ship to India. Marco Polo also sailed. He was stranded there for 5 months and said that they people were savages and cannibals.

Marco Polo was there when the Mongols were in China. Denis and Francis loved it there. The Mongols were still nice when it came to people visiting and gave them food. They even watched the animals get slaughtered. They said that that was their favorite place out of all. The houses they lived in were all the same from when Marco Polo was there and also the sights were the same.

This was a dangerous desert. People would say once you go in, you don't come out. Francis and Denis spent hours and hours riding on a camel through the desert. When Marco Polo went through the desert he heard spirits talking. Something that didn't change there was how they wrote names on the door.

This was the dangerous part of the country. When Marco Polo went there, seven people in his group had died or even sold. Denis and Francis got protection from 25 bodyguards. They also had to dress up as Afghans and had to hold weapons. They had a gun pointed at them until the people realized that were no harm.

When Denis and Francis went to Afghanistan they said it felt like the 13th century. They ate every single body part of a lamb that you can think of. When they walked through there, on one side of them was rocket launchers and on the other side there was machine guns. Marco Polo gave them a golden letter saying that he should be able to go through the gate and do what he wants. They decided to do something similar. They wrote a letter and that letter let them go through.

When the two Americans went to Persia/Uzbekistan, they had to have a Visa to get into every city. They also had to forge a Visa to get more time to cross a bridge. They were not allowed to cross the bridge for a long time until they forced their way through it. When Marco Polo went through Persia/Uzbekistan, he didn't need any Visa, he got to walk freely through there. When they both went there, the architecture that was there still remained the same.
