5 Star Reasons NOT to miss this Travel Show
Going into its 15th year, the Travel & Adventure Show has had over 1.75 million travel professionals and just people excited about travel who have attended from all over. Originally the Adventures In Travel Expos, it was reintroduced in 2011 as the Travel & Adventure Shows.
Hike Ancient Peru
Hike this site, adventurers! Do you have all of the UNESCO sites on your bucket list? Well, we do. So Machu Picchu is on there. We did it. It was amazing.
Dive the Galapagos
We’ve never seen so much sea life in one place! We did 14 dives and saw 12 whale sharks; the gentle giants. (So endearing. When they get scared, they close their eyes! Is that adorable or what?) On the serious side, diving in the Galapagos Islands is not for the faint of heart nor for the inexperienced diver.
Zip-Lining in Costa Rica
Costa Rica is amazing, and perfect for adventure (and for the post-adventure spa experience). You can go horseback riding, zip lining, SCUBA diving, whitewater rafting, kayaking, surfing, climbing, biking, tubing, and paddle boarding, just to name a few of the dare-devilish experiences to be had. THE thing to do in CR is ziplining and we have a spot you can do it.
America’s Cup
The America’s Cup, affectionately known as the Auld Mug, is a trophy awarded to the winner of the America’s Cup match races between two sailing yachts. One yacht, known as the defender, represents the yacht club that currently holds the America’s Cup and the second yacht, known as the challenger, represents the yacht club that is challenging for the cup.
5 Star Hike
Yes, there are many musts when visiting the City of Angels but this is a quick checklist of our favorite picks. All these are “must dos” but note a personal favorite for all of you “actives” is taking a 5 Star Hike. I happen to be a local in LA, and it’s a regular daily activity for Angelenos to take to the trails.
On the Big Island of Hawaii
On the big island of Hawaii along the North Shore of the Kona coast near Waikoloa is the breathtaking Fairmont Orchid, Hawaii. Situated amongst 32 oceanfront acres, the Fairmont Orchid is a spectacular resort offering luxurious accommodation and extensive resort facilities to the discerning traveler.
