Key West, the southernmost point in the continental U.S., is famous for its lively nightlife, pristine beaches, historic charm, and signature conch-style pastel homes. Located 130 miles south of Miami and just 90 miles from Cuba, this quirky island feels like its own little world. The drive along the Overseas Highway to Key West is a bucket-list experience, offering jaw-dropping views of turquoise waters and scenic islands. Once there, don’t miss the Ernest Hemingway House, where you can tour the author’s former home and meet the resident six-toed cats.

Moke Lake, despite its proximity to Queenstown, provides a peaceful sanctuary away from the city buzz, along with an abundance of outdoor activities. You can amble along the scenic track encircling the lake, take a tranquil horseback ride, cast your fishing line, enjoy a paddle in a kayak, or whizz around on your cycle. It truly is a place that offers a taste of tranquillity alongside a wealth of adventurous pursuits. The Moke Lake Loop Track is a popular short, undulating walk and cycle track. It's 6.5 kilometres (4 miles) long and most hikers need about two hours to complete it at a leisurely pace.

With an elevation of 906 metres, Mount Pantokrator is the highest mountain on the island and offers extraordinary and stunning views of Corfu, as well as Albania, situated a short distance from the island. At the top of the mountain, you'll find a café and a monastery.

At 185 metres high, the Euromast is the highest lookout tower in the Netherlands, and should you — against all odds — get bored of the stunning views, you can always seek thrills in the Space Tower attractions situated at the very top of the Euromast. Euroscoop, Rotterdam’s highest panorama elevator with glass floor, gives you a bird's eye view of the city.
