Rising 302 metres over Riyadh, the Kingdom Centre remains a defining feature of the city's skyline. Its most distinctive element is the 56-metre Sky Bridge, connecting the tower's two peaks on the 99th floor. High-speed elevators transport visitors to this vantage point, which offers sweeping, unobstructed views of the capital through secure glass panels. The complex also houses the world's second-highest mosque and the Al-Mamlaka shopping centre. For the clearest perspective, a daytime visit is recommended to avoid the crowds that gather for the illuminated evening spectacle.

The Red Sand Dunes around Riyadh present a dramatic landscape for desert exploration. Numerous operators run excursions to this area, typically including transport from the city. The core experience often involves dune bashing in a 4x4 vehicle, followed by more hands-on activities such as riding a quad bike over the sandy slopes. For a more traditional pace, a camel ride offers a different perspective on the vast terrain. These guided tours simplify the logistics, providing equipment and refreshments for a seamless adventure into the striking desert environment.

Over 22,000 builds and 57 million bricks make up the park's collection of models ranging from a full-scale Star Wars 'X-wing' to miniatures of many U.S. cities. With rides, shows and restaurants, Legoland California is 128 acres of family fun.

If you like history and discovering beautiful libraries, you're in for a treat. On this fascinating tour, you start with a visit to Dublin's Trinity College Library, home to the famous Book of Kells—the lavishly illustrated manuscript of the Gospels dating back to AD 800 and widely considered among the most important of all of Ireland's ancient treasures. Then, enjoy a guided tour around the grounds of Dublin Castle, and listen to fascinating stories of its years as a prison, military fortress, and the seat of the English Administration in Ireland.
