Las Vegas

The Las Vegas strip has so much to offer its visitors from a grand range of different casinos to seeing one of the world’s natural wonders. If you happen to be hitting Vegas this year, it is a good idea to learn how to play poker or another casino game. As well as casinos, Vegas also has a little bit of Europe too. The Paris Casino has a half-size replica of the Eiffel tower, and you can take gondola ride at The Venetian hotel. If you want to do some exploring during the day, make sure you check out the Grand Canyon, one of the world’s natural wonders.

Italy

There are so many beautiful and romantic cities in Italy that it may be difficult to choose where to go. Enjoy a relaxing gondola ride in Venice, the whole city that seems to be miraculously built on water. There are also many stunning churches and museums to wander around in Venice too, or travel to Rome to see the Vatican museums and St. Peter’s Square. In Rome, you will also be able to see some of the world’s famous art: the Sistine Chapel, which is Michelangelo’s masterpiece.

New York

Each year millions of people visit the Big Apple, where you can walk tall on a train line, discover the best views in Manhattan or take a romantic trip around the harbor. There are some incredibly famous views and attractions in New York, including Central Park. Take a nice stroll around the park no matter what season it is. Or take a trip to see the skyline in the evening by boat on the harbor. One of the biggest landmarks in the U.S. is home in New York so make sure you see the Statue of Liberty when you take a ride on board the Staten Island Ferry.

Paris

Visit not only one of the most romantic places, but also one of the most popular. Behind the places and boulevards, you will discover intimate courtyards and gardens. There is so much to see, do and experience in Paris with playgrounds, food markets and cafes you will not be bored or hungry.

Berlin

Although many may think Europe has rainy summers, that is not the case. Berlin and many European countries are graced with lovely sunshine throughout the summer making it an ideal city break. Berlin is a city filled with culture, and history buffs will truly be in their element as they have a vast range of museums.
