Explore Egypt’s long story at the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization, the first museum in the country and the Arab world to showcase the full range of Egyptian civilisation’s richness and diversity. Don’t skip the Royal Mummies Hall, where you’ll find actual mummies of some famous pharaohs. It’s a bit eerie but totally worth a look.

Built on what was once a rubble dump, this green space now offers some of the best views of old Cairo. It’s one of the few spots in the city where you can stretch out on the grass, grab a coffee, or just take a break from the noise. There are a couple of restaurants, walking paths, and quiet corners perfect for photos or a picnic.

Tourists tend to flock to Virgin Gorda for its beauty, Anegada for the lobster and Jost Van Dyke for the vibrant bar scene — crowds will be thinner in Cooper Island, but it does not mean it is any less worthy of dropping anchor. Boasting pristine beaches, excellent diving conditions with a 'wreck alley' to explore, a solar-powered brewery, and many more, Cooper Island is the perfect place for a quiet recharge away from the hustle of Road Town.

For a taste of nature just outside the city, hiking up Wutong Mountain is a favourite among locals and visitors alike. The mountain offers a range of trails, so whether you’re an experienced hiker or just looking for a scenic stroll, there’s something for every fitness level. The effort is well worth it when you’re rewarded with sweeping views of Shenzhen—and on clear days, you can even catch a glimpse of Hong Kong in the distance. While the hike is the main attraction, make sure to explore the Hongfa Temple, one of the largest and most revered in Shenzhen, as well as the botanical garden nestled in the mountain’s foothills, where you can relax and immerse yourself in lush greenery.
