There are a few. The Animals Divine have Deities from around the world for the Major Arcana, including Aborigine, Ifa, Greek, etc.
The Goddess Tarot by Kris Waldherr has the suits set to reflect specific cultures. The Wands are Egyptian, for example.

Here's a page on Aeclectic that lists a bunch of multicultural decks:

I have the Goddess tarot and I really like it. It includes many Goddesses from different cultures, and the minor arcana are focused on Norse, Egyptian, Indian, and Roman.

Bartmanhomer, you might also be interested in these two decks:
Ancestral Path Tarot
The Ancestral Path Tarot combines traditional Native American, feudal Japanese, Arthurian English and Egyptian symbols and images into a beautiful set of 78 tarot cards. Each suit of the minor arcana is matched with a particular culture or tradition.

Tarot of the Ages
The Tarot of the Ages is a multicultural deck that draws on Egyptian culture for the major arcana, and Aztec, Hindu, African and Viking cultures in the minor arcana. The lifelike card artwork is lovely, but somewhat limited by the substantial white borders.
