Bright Lights, Big City

The appeal is undeniable - more than 50 million visitors a year discover a constantly evolving metropolis. Visitors seek out classic Manhattan experiences — like strolling in Central Park, trying a new restaurant in leafy, cobblestoned neighborhoods, or taking in the latest exhibits at the Metropolitan Museum of Art — but are also drawn to creative restaurants, cool galleries, and beautiful parks in Brooklyn.

Scottsdale’s Sonoran Desert landscape and brilliant sunsets are restorative. It’s easy to explore top hotels, spas, shopping, and great golf, while the surrounding desert offers all-level hiking and adventures. The city is a top escape for winter and spring breaks, when the blooming orange blossom trees scent the air. Locals call it a “dry heat” in the summer, when the best hotels significantly drop their rates and chill their pools.

Capital Promises Both Highbrow—and High-Octane—Romance

Take a whirl on the London Eye, climb the O2, whiz up the Thames on a high-speed boat, and marvel at views from 800 feet up in London’s tallest skyscraper, The Shard. If you’re more Bard than Bond, take your beloved to a performance at the Globe or the theater-rich West End. Culture lovers can also stroll miles of free museums and galleries.

Volcanoes, Renowned Surfing, and a Rainbow of Beaches

On Oahu, watch surfers ride curling waves off the North Shore, snorkel among the fish in Hanauma Bay, or visit the moving WWII memorial at Pearl Harbor. On the Big Island, marvel at molten lava flows at Hawaii Volcanoes National Park and stargaze atop Mauna Kea. Fly through Kauai’s Waimea Canyon in a helicopter, take a mule ride down the world’s highest sea cliffs on Molokai, and experience an unforgettable sunrise from atop Maui’s Haleakala.

Admire the skyline from atop the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe, the steps of Sacré-Cœur, or the rooftop terrace of the Galeries Lafayette (a Parisian secret). There’s no shortage of fine restaurants, but Paris’ parks are perfect for private picnics. For great views of the city’s iconic landmarks, book a cruise aboard the bateaux mouches.
