Quebec City

It all started in 1535, when Jacques Cartier landed here, and the first trading port was created in what is now Quebec. Since then, the city has become the province's capital and a popular destination for its sights, architecture, and food. Visit the famous Château Frontenac, the world's most photographed hotel, or one of the many national historic sites, each a sight to behold in its own right. But walking through the Old Port or the Plains of Abraham is, perhaps, the best way to feel and breathe in the historical atmosphere of the city.

Miami, Florida

Miami, known for its glamour and cosmopolitan vibe, stands out with its miles of sandy beaches, year-round sunshine, and vibrant nightlife.

All these elements and their fascinating blend make it an exciting and unparalleled travel destination.
