Dare loved ones to do something different (http://www. city-discovery. com/category/something_different) this year. City Discovery features a number of out-of-the-ordinary activities for adventurous travelers like Elephant Riding and Bamboo Rafting in the jungles outside Chiang Mai, Swimming with Dolphins in Los Cabos, and solving the Northern Lights Mystery in Reykjavik. For holidaymakers with a taste for aerial sightseeing, helicopters tours in New York City and over the Grand Canyon in Phoenix; balloon rides over the architectural masterpieces in France, mountain landscape of Switzerland, and ancient ruins of Luxor; and skydiving in Prague and Bogota will surely deliver some unforgettable memories as well.
Urban adventurers also have the benefit of a wide selection of sightseeing activities (http://www. city-discovery. com) in top cities, including Athens, Florence, London, Milan, Paris, Rome, Shanghai, and Singapore. In Paris, touring in style in the iconic French car, the Citroën 2CV, is a very popular option. One such activity on City Discovery is the 2CV Convertible Eternal Magic Tours of Paris, where tour participants are chauffeured by knowledgeable and friendly guides through the heart of Paris, inviting a view of the city in a refreshing new light. While photo tours, such as Paris thru the Lens – City of Lights, offer a more specialized coverage of a city’s attractions, they offer photography enthusiasts as well as professional photographers the chance to capture interesting details about the city and improve photography techniques.
Hop on hop off bus tours, segway and walking tours, and bike tours round up the city sightseeing experiences available on the site.
Meanwhile, a trip to the City of Lights will not be complete without going on a Dinner Dance and Show at Moulin Rouge. Participants are treated to an unforgettable evening, complete with a delicious dinner and amazing show – the famous French Cancan and a spellbinding performance of Feerie. This tour and other nightlife activities featuring shows, cabarets and concerts (http://www. city-discovery. com/category/Shows-_Cabarets_and_Concerts/1) are major bestsellers on City Discovery. Travelers find them ideal for capping off a day of sightseeing, especially as they are sometimes combined with dinner cruises.
But for a truly relaxing experience, travelers can book cruises that are not packaged with shows or sightseeing activities on land. Samples of these activities include the Traditional Dinner Cruise in Amsterdam, featuring a 4 - course gourmet dinner aboard a luxury glass-dome motor launch; Dhow Cruise with Dinner through the modern and traditional sights and sounds of Dubai Creek; Danube Bend Tour, departing from Budapest and featuring three scenic towns along the famous river; and a one-day cruise to the fascinating Greek islands of Aegina, Poros and Hydra.
Stepping up the pampering experience, City Discovery also hosts a lineup of spa tours that lets travelers simply indulge their senses. Bestsellers include soaking in the Blue Lagoon, a geothermal spa situated in the middle of a large lava field in Iceland; and the Health and Relaxation experience in the mineral-rich Dead Sea.
Finally, City Discovery’s selection of food, wine, and gastronomic activities (http://www. city-discovery. com/category/food-_wine_and_gastronomy/1) cater to travelers with a stronger interest in pursuing unique and memorable eating and drinking experiences.
