This is a full-day private tour from Las Vegas to the South Rim of the Grand Canyon, designed to give you time to enjoy the viewpoints rather than rush you through them. You’ll travel in a purpose-built touring vehicle with a dedicated guide, explore several key stops along the rim on foot, and return to Las Vegas in the evening. It’s a long day on the road, but one that’s paced to make the distance worthwhile.

You’re picked up from your Las Vegas hotel in the morning and set off across the Mojave Desert. The drive takes about 4 to 4.5 hours each way, broken up by scenic stops and commentary. You follow sections of historic Route 66, passing wide-open desert landscapes and traces of the old Santa Fe Railway while your guide shares context about the region’s history, wildlife and early travellers. As you climb onto the Coconino Plateau, the scenery shifts to cooler air, pine forest, and mountain views. Your first stop is Mather Point, one of the most expansive viewpoints on the South Rim. This is where the canyon's scale really lands, with sweeping views stretching across the gorge and the North Rim visible on clear days.

From here, you’ll walk a short section of the Trail of Time to Yavapai Point, stopping at the Yavapai Geology Museum. Built right on the edge of the rim, the museum uses panoramic windows and clear displays to explain how the canyon was formed and to help you read the layers spread out before you. Next, you’ll head to Grand Canyon Village, the historic heart of the South Rim. This area developed in the early 1900s to support railway travellers and is now home to some of the park’s most characterful buildings. You’ll stop at Bright Angel Lodge, a stone-and-timber landmark sitting just feet from the canyon’s edge, with time for lunch and a wander. There’s a small history room, gift shop, and even a classic soda fountain and ice cream counter if that feels earned by this point.

Before beginning the return drive to Las Vegas, you’ll stop at a local trading post showcasing art, jewellery, and crafts made by Native American artisans. Breakfast, snacks, a picnic lunch, bottled water, and all park entrance fees are included, so the day runs smoothly from start to finish. It’s a long drive, but a thoughtfully paced one, and you’ll return to Las Vegas feeling like you’ve genuinely spent time at the Grand Canyon.

This full-day tour from Las Vegas is a journey into one of the most extreme landscapes on the planet. Just a few hours away from Vegas, Death Valley National Park reveals vast salt flats, sculpted rock and record-setting temperatures, all explored with a guide over the course of the day. You’ll visit key viewpoints, walk out onto the valley floor, and move through a landscape that feels stark and strange before returning to Las Vegas in the evening.

Inside the park, the first major viewpoint is Dante’s View, perched more than a mile above the valley floor. From here, you’ll look out over salt flats, colourful badlands, and the remnants of an ancient lake, a perspective that makes the scale of the place sink in quickly. You’ll spend time at Furnace Creek Visitor Centre, learning how life survives in such an unforgiving environment, before heading to Harmony Borax Works. 

Pass the jagged salt formations of Devil’s Golf Course, a landscape so rough and sharply eroded that, as the saying goes, only the devil could play a round here. Next comes Badwater Basin, the lowest point in North America. You’ll have time to walk out onto the vast white salt flats and stand beneath the famous elevation sign marking 282 feet below sea level. It’s blindingly bright, surreal, and unlike anywhere else you’re likely to visit.

Before heading back, you’ll follow Artists Drive, a scenic loop through hills painted with natural reds, greens, and purples, then stop at the historic Inn at Death Valley. The final stretch includes a gentle off-road drive through Twenty Mule Team Canyon.

This full-day tour from Las Vegas takes you through the Hoover Dam from every angle. You’ll float below it on the Colorado River, walk across the top, and head inside the powerhouse to see how it actually works. It’s a practical, well-paced day that combines engineering, history and time outdoors.

Before reaching the dam, you’ll pass through Boulder City, built in the early 1930s to house the thousands of workers who constructed Hoover Dam during the Great Depression. Unlike Las Vegas, it still has an old-school feel, and it plays a significant role in the story of how the dam came together under extraordinary conditions.

At Hoover Dam Lodge, you’ll have time to look through historic photographs before boarding a shuttle to the Colorado River. From there, you’ll take a gentle 90-minute float through Black Canyon, starting at the base of the dam. From the water level, the scale of the structure becomes very real, with sheer concrete walls, dramatic canyon cliffs, and a rare view back towards the dam’s spillways.

After the river trip, you’ll stop for a picnic lunch and a photo stop on the Arizona side of the dam, before heading up to the top. Standing more than 700 feet tall, Hoover Dam still supplies power and water across Nevada, Arizona, and California, and walking across it gives you time to take in both the engineering and the setting. You’ll then head inside for a guided tour of the Hoover Dam Power Plant.

This early evening tour is an easy, guided way to see Las Vegas after dark. You’ll travel around the city in an open-air Pink Jeep Wrangler, stop at several of its most recognisable landmarks, and finish with a ride on the High Roller observation wheel. It’s relaxed rather than rushed, and it works well if you want an overview of the city at night without committing your entire evening to it.

The tour kicks off with a stop at the famous Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas sign. From there, you’ll cruise past a mix of classic and curious sights, including the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop, familiar to anyone who’s ever dipped into Pawn Stars. As you roll along Wedding Chapel Row, keep an eye out for couples mid-celebration.

Next comes downtown Las Vegas, including the Arts District and Fremont Street, the city’s original heart. Once the first paved road in town, Fremont is now a four-block spectacle of light and sound, with a huge LED canopy overhead and zipliners cutting through the glow. It’s loud, unapologetic, and very Vegas, with plenty of stories attached.

You’ll then stop at the Las Vegas Sphere, the city’s newest headline act. With its fully programmable LED exterior, it’s less a building and more a giant digital mood ring. To round things off, you’ll take a ride on the High Roller observation wheel at The LINQ. Rising 550 feet above the Strip, it offers expansive views over the city, from the Bellagio fountains to the long sweep of hotels stretching into the distance.

This guided bike tour is an efficient, easygoing way to see Central Park in a couple of hours. You’ll cover far more ground than on foot, stop regularly at key landmarks, and hear the stories that give the park its character, all without feeling rushed. Stretching for more than 50 city blocks through the middle of Manhattan, Central Park is where locals escape the noise, films find their backdrops, and life seems to take on a different mood from the busy streets.

On this guided ride, you’ll follow quiet paths and broad avenues through the park’s best-known corners and some of its quieter ones too. You’ll cycle beneath the American elms of the Literary Walk, a grand promenade named for the statues of writers that line it and is often used in films and period dramas. You’ll stop at Bethesda Terrace and Fountain, the architectural heart of the park, set beside the lake where classic rowing boats glide past and street musicians often fill the space with sound. Nearby, Sheep Meadow offers one of Central Park’s most famous views, a wide green lawn framed by Manhattan’s skyline and a favourite spot for picnics and people-watching.

The route also loops around the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir, a calm, open stretch of water encircled by a running path, with long views that show just how dramatically the city rises around the park. One of the more reflective stops is Strawberry Fields, the John Lennon Memorial, located near the building where he lived. It’s a peaceful corner of the park, often accompanied by music and the occasional singalong, and a reminder of how closely Central Park is woven into modern culture.

Climb aboard a Pink Jeep Wrangler in nearby Pigeon Forge and head into the Great Smoky Mountains, a vast national park known for its forests, waterfalls, and misty views. With a certified Adventure Guide at the wheel, you’ll travel through Gatlinburg before entering the Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail, a narrow, one-way scenic loop that follows a lively mountain stream through dense woodland. While your guide navigates the twists and turns, you can relax, take photos, and enjoy the ride.

Along the way, you’ll pass waterfalls, preserved log cabins, and historic homesteads that tell the story of early mountain life. The road climbs through oak, maple, magnolia, and tulip trees to viewpoints with sweeping views across the forested hills.

You’ll stop at key sites such as the Noah “Bud” Ogle Place, the Alfred Reagan Place, and Tub Mill, where you’ll hear stories of the settlers who once lived and worked here. As the Jeep winds back downhill, the stream gathers speed, creating rushing water and dramatic photo opportunities.

The adventure begins at Boston Harbor, walking through a scenic waterfront park before heading to North End to see some of the neighbourhood's most historic sites and properties, some dating back to the late 1600s and 1700s. Your guide will introduce you to a hidden Italian bakery serving fresh bread. A proper Italian salumeria is next, where you'll enjoy some Italian meats and cheeses.

This whale watching trip explores Monterey Bay, where marine life gathers unusually close to shore. Thanks to the bay’s underwater geography, boats don’t need to travel far offshore to find activity, which means more time with wildlife and less time in transit. You head out with experienced skippers, follow sightings as they develop, and see whatever turns up on the day, from humpbacks and grey whales to dolphins and sea lions.

Monterey Bay is one of the most reliable places on the California coast for whale watching. The skippers spend most days on this water, reading swell, bird activity and animal behaviour to decide where to go. The pace is unhurried, with time to stay with sightings rather than rushing on to the next location.

What you see varies by season and by day. Humpback whales are common and often active at the surface, grey whales pass through during migration, and blue whales appear in the warmer months. Dolphins frequently ride the bow wave, with sea lions and seabirds close by.

This helicopter flight is about seeing Los Angeles as a whole, rather than as a traffic-filled list of neighbourhoods. In about 40 minutes, you’ll move from working port to hillside glamour, from coastline to city grid, with a perspective that makes LA's scale click.

You’ll take off from Long Beach and begin over the Ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles, among the busiest in the world and a reminder that this city runs on far more than film sets. From here, the route cuts inland past the Vincent Thomas Bridge and across the city towards the coast and the hills beyond.

As the helicopter climbs over Beverly Hills and Bel Air, the scenery shifts to winding roads, hidden homes, and long views stretching towards the Pacific. The Hollywood sign comes next, and this is where the aerial view really earns its keep. From the ground, the sign is surprisingly distant and often partially hidden. From the air, you see it head-on, framed by the hills it was built to sit on.

You’ll continue over Griffith Park and its hilltop observatory before crossing into Downtown Los Angeles, where the city tightens into a dense grid of towers, freeways, and sports and entertainment districts that show just how big and varied LA really is.

The flight finishes back over Long Beach, circling the waterfront and downtown area before passing the historic Queen Mary, a retired ocean liner from the 1930s that now sits permanently docked in the harbour.

This 30-minute helicopter flight swaps traffic for airspace and shows you why this stretch of coast keeps turning up in films, playlists, and daydreams. You’ll lift off from Long Beach and head south, following the curve of the Orange County coastline. From above, the mix becomes clearer: long sandy beaches, sudden rocky headlands, and neighbourhoods that seem designed to face the ocean.

You’ll pass over Seal Beach and Newport Beach, skim the cliffs around Dana Point, and see the greener, quieter pockets of Laguna Niguel laid out below. From the air, you’ll see the Pacific Coast Highway threading along the shoreline below, with dolphins and seals often visible in the water alongside it. 

The flight continues past surf beaches and coastal landmarks, including the Huntington Beach Pier, the compact charm of Balboa Island, and the layered coves of Laguna Beach. The scenery then opens up into the protected stretches of Crystal Cove State Park and the jewel-toned waters of Emerald Bay, where the coastline briefly forgets about development altogether.

The flight loops back over Long Beach to finish, passing the permanently docked Queen Mary and the working port before touching down.

This is a lively introduction to Los Angeles that gives you more than just drive-by views. Over the course of the day, you’ll explore the city’s most recognisable neighbourhoods and landmarks by sightseeing coach, with time to step out, look around, and get a feel for how LA actually works.

The tour begins in Hollywood, where you’ll walk along Hollywood Boulevard and the Walk of Fame, spotting the names that have shaped film, music, and pop culture over the decades. Nearby, you’ll see landmarks like the Dolby Theatre and hear the stories that give this stretch of pavement its reputation, for better and worse. At Santa Monica, you’ll have time to enjoy the ocean air and the famous pier, where beach culture, street performers, and fairground nostalgia all collide. 

You’ll also pass through Beverly Hills, known less for landmarks than for atmosphere, with its wide streets, palm trees, and carefully understated luxury. A stop at the original Farmers Market adds a welcome break, with time to browse, grab a bite, and see where locals have been eating for decades. It’s casual, varied, and a good reset before heading back out. The tour also takes in elevated viewpoints around Griffith Park, where you’ll see the Griffith Observatory and enjoy wide views across the city basin, a moment that helps pull the whole day together.

Over 48 hours, you can explore the city at your own pace using an open-top hop-on hop-off bus, with the freedom to get off where something catches your eye and jump back on when you’re ready to move on. The route links more than 40 stops across Los Angeles, covering everything from the revitalised downtown area to coastal favourites like Santa Monica. Whether you want to wander, shop, eat, people-watch, or stay on board and take it all in, the choice is yours.

The Hollywood Celebrity Homes Tour is included, a separate guided drive through Beverly Hills and the Hollywood Hills. This is your peek behind the hedges, passing the homes of well-known actors, musicians, and industry names, with context on how these neighbourhoods became so closely tied to Hollywood life. It’s more about setting the scene than pointing at front doors, and it adds a bit of insider colour to the wider city tour.

Together, the two experiences strike a good balance. The hop-on hop-off buses give you independence and flexibility, while the celebrity homes tour adds a distinctly LA layer you wouldn’t get on your own. It’s easygoing, adaptable, and ideal if you want to see a lot of the city without committing to a fixed schedule.

This short but utterly fabulous seaplane flight takes off from the calm waters of Richardson Bay in Sausalito, just north of San Francisco. You’ll fly in a beautifully restored DeHavill and Beaver seaplane, a classic aircraft designed for water landings and low-level flying, with wide windows that make every seat a good one.

Once you’re airborne, the Marin coastline begins to fall away. Ahead, the Golden Gate Bridge comes into view. From the air, its red-orange arches stretch wide across the mouth of the bay and flying past them gives you a sense of scale and drama that’s impossible to get from the road or the pavement below.

The route traces the edge of the city, revealing San Francisco from angles most people never see. Alcatraz appears below as a compact, unmistakable silhouette in the water, while nearby Angel Island looks greener and quieter, layered with its own history. Along the shoreline, Baker Beach and Crissy Field unfurl where the city meets the Pacific, all open space and wind and light.

Further across the bay, you’ll spot the sweep of the San Francisco–Oakland Bay Bridge, the rugged headlands of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area, and the Point Bonita Lighthouse clinging to the cliffs at the water’s edge. Throughout the flight, your pilot adds context and stories, helping connect what you’re seeing to how the city grew, moved, and defined itself around the water.

This 90-minute catamaran sail is an easy way to appreciate San Francisco from the water. Once you’re out on the bay, the views open up quickly. You’ll pass Alcatraz Island, follow the city skyline, sail under the Golden Gate Bridge, and head towards the edge of the Pacific.

It’s well-suited to first-time visitors who want a simple overview of San Francisco, and to return travellers who fancy doing something a bit different. In the summer months, it’s a perfect way to spend time outdoors without the crowds, though trips run year-round.

San Francisco looks compact on a map. Then you meet the hills. And that’s where the e-bike earns its keep. This guided electric bike tour is a brilliant way to get your bearings in a city. Over around four hours, you will roll through some of San Francisco’s most characterful neighbourhoods while a local guide fills in the stories. The famous ones, the strange ones, and the ones you would never stumble across on your own.

You’ll start near Fisherman’s Wharf at Ghirardelli Square, once a working chocolate factory and now a very scenic place to begin. From there, the route heads through Hayes Valley, a favourite with locals thanks to its independent shops and excellent coffee culture. Then it is on to Alamo Square for the classic Painted Ladies view, instantly recognisable from films and TV like Vertigo, Mrs Doubtfire, The Rock and Full House.

There is time to pause in Haight Ashbury, the heart of the 1960s counterculture scene and former home to Janis Joplin and the Grateful Dead. These days, it’s more vintage trainers than flower power, but the history is still very much part of the place. The ride finishes with an easy glide along the Panhandle of Golden Gate Park, a long green stretch that shows off San Francisco’s love of open space right in the middle of the city.

​

This guided bike tour is a classic San Francisco experience done properly. Over around three hours, you’ll follow the waterfront out of Fisherman’s Wharf, with a local guide setting the scene as you go. The ride begins along the coastal bike path, hugging the bay as the city slowly gives way to open views.

You’ll pass historic Fort Mason before rolling out towards Crissy Field, a former US Army airfield that now offers one of the best viewpoints in the city. On a clear day, the bridge stretches ahead of you in full cinematic mode, with Alcatraz sitting off to the side.

Then comes the main event. You’ll cycle the whole 1.7 miles of the Golden Gate Bridge itself, with time to stop along the way for the essential photos and to take in the scale of the thing. Once across, the mood shifts. The road drops gently downhill, and the pace relaxes as you follow the coast into Sausalito. It’s quieter and full of waterfront cafés, houseboats, and small shops that feel a world away from the city you have just left. The electric bikes make the whole route feel comfortably achievable, even with the bridge climb. At the end, most people choose to hop on the ferry back to Fisherman’s Wharf, watching the skyline drift past.

This helicopter flight is a fast, comprehensive way to see Kauaʻi’s most dramatic landscapes in one go. You’ll fly over remote valleys, waterfalls, deep canyons and the Nā Pali Coast, covering areas that are difficult or impossible to reach by road. It’s a short but wide-ranging experience, designed for anyone who wants a clear sense of the island’s scale and scenery without spending days travelling around it.

Lift off by helicopter and watch Kauaʻi turn cinematic. You’ll glide into the Hanapēpē Valley to see Manawaiopuna Falls, better known as the Jurassic Park waterfalls. From there, it’s on to Olokele Canyon and the vast, rust-red folds of Waimea Canyon, often called the Grand Canyon of the Pacific, where waterfalls spill down the cliffs. Then comes the north shore, and this is where things get even more dramatic. You’ll trace the Nā Pali Coast’s towering sea cliffs, rising thousands of feet straight out of the ocean, sweep over the turquoise waters of Hanalei Bay, and spot the Princeville area tucked neatly into the greenery.

If the weather’s playing nicely, your pilot will finish strong with Mount Waiʻaleʻale, a dormant volcano and one of the wettest places on Earth. All that rain has a point. It feeds a riot of waterfalls and deep green ridges that feel almost unreal. It’s scenic, immersive, and adventurous enough to brag about later. Kauaʻi from the ground is lovely. From the air, it’s unforgettable.

This helicopter tour covers much of Maui in a single flight, combining West Maui’s valleys and waterfalls with East Maui’s rainforest and volcanic landscapes. You’ll also land at Ulupalakua Ranch on the slopes of Haleakalā for a short stop with refreshments and views. It’s a varied, mid-length flight perfect if you want both aerial sightseeing and a brief on-the-ground, away-from-it-all experience.

You’ll start by flying over West Maui, where deep valleys, dense rainforest, and long ribbons of waterfalls set the tone. It’s the side of the island that feels wild and cinematic, the sort of scenery that makes you forget about your camera for a moment because you’re too busy looking. Then comes the unexpected part. Your pilot lands at a private spot on Ulupalakua Ranch, high on the slopes of Mount Haleakalā. You’ll have around 20 minutes on the ground to stretch your legs, enjoy light refreshments, and take in wide-open views across rolling pastureland. On a clear day, you’ll catch views stretching all the way to the sea on both sides of the island.

Back in the air, the flight continues over East Maui for an extended look at the lush Hana region and the vast volcanic landscape of Haleakalā. From this angle, the island’s scale becomes clearer, and the contrast between the rainforest, the coastline, and the crater becomes clear. It’s adventurous without being intense, visually rich, and varied enough to feel like you’ve really seen Maui rather than just skimmed over it.

If you’re going to splurge on one unforgettable experience in Oʻahu, make it a complete island helicopter flight. In around 65 minutes, you’ll see the entire island unfold beneath you, from pivotal historical landmarks to postcard-perfect coastline, all in one flight.

You’ll lift off from Honolulu and fly over Pearl Harbour and the USS Arizona Memorial, a powerful moment that sets the tone before the scenery shifts gears. Minutes later, the city thins out, and Oʻahu’s natural side takes centre stage. You’ll sweep past Diamond Head, the island’s instantly recognisable volcanic crater, then glide over the clear reefs and electric blues of Kāneʻohe Bay. Inland, the landscape turns lush and dramatic as you pass through the Nuʻuanu Rainforest and over Sacred Falls, Oʻahu’s tallest waterfall, hidden deep in the jungle.

Then it’s north, where the coastline opens up into the North Shore, home to legendary surf breaks and long, wild beaches that feel a world away from Waikiki. You’ll also spot the vast green stretches of the Dole Plantation and follow the rugged Waiʻanae mountain range along the island’s western edge, where Oʻahu looks raw and almost untouched. By the time you touch back down, Oʻahu feels less like a collection of highlights and more like a complete, connected island.

This evening tour combines a scenic drive up Mauna Kea, sunset views from high above the clouds, and guided stargazing under one of the clearest night skies on Earth. You’ll climb from sea level into the mountain’s high-altitude landscape, stop for sunset, then descend to a more comfortable elevation for an after-dark look at the stars.

You leave earlier in the evening and begin the gradual climb up Mauna Kea, a dormant volcano that rises well above the rest of the island. During the drive, your guide fills in the background, from the mountain’s geological story to the way Hawaiians once used the stars to navigate across the Pacific. There’s a hot picnic-style dinner along the way, timed for when the temperature starts to drop and sitting down feels particularly welcome.

Sunset is the main event. From near the summit, you watch the sun sink with clouds often spread out below you and the colours changing quickly as the light fades. It’s a quiet, unhurried moment, helped by the fact that very little else competes for attention at this altitude. After dark, you head back down to a lower elevation for stargazing. Wrapped up against the cold, you take part in a guided star show using a powerful 11-inch Celestron telescope. With minimal light pollution, the night sky here is clear and expansive.

This full-day experience on Hawaiʻi Island brings together three very different sides of the island. You’ll explore an active volcanic landscape with a guide, visit a working cacao farm to see how chocolate is made from the ground up, and finish the day at one of Hilo’s best-known waterfalls. It’s a varied itinerary that works well if you want contrast rather than a single-focus tour.

The day begins at Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park, where you explore a landscape shaped by eruptions, collapses and cooling lava. Travelling through the park with a guide, you see how volcanic activity continues to reshape the terrain. One of the key stops focuses on the dramatic collapse of the Halemaʻumaʻu crater, which significantly altered Kīlauea and changed how this part of the park looks and feels.

From molten geology, the focus shifts to something much sweeter. You visit a tropical cacao farm, set across a large working property, where you follow chocolate from tree to finished product. The visit is hands-on and practical, breaking down the process in a way that makes the result more interesting than you might expect. The day finishes in Hilo at Rainbow Falls. Surrounded by lush greenery, the waterfall is an easy, unrushed stop and a good way to wind things down.

The island of Key West is full of fun and exciting things to do and see. Explore Key West in the most authentic way aboard an Old Town Trolley that circles the entire island. From the Southernmost Point to the quaint streets of Old Town, this tour has 12 different stops for you to explore all the major areas and attractions, with unlimited re-boarding along the 90-minute route.

See Key West's first tourist attraction, the Key West Aquarium, which was also the world's first open air aquarium. Moving on to Harry Truman’s Little White House which is the state of Florida’s only presidential suite with a rich history spanning back to 1912. The Oldest House Museum is also nearby; it's one of the many beautifully restored homes that are open to the public in Key West dating back to 1829. Stop four covers the famous Duvel Street which has historic significance with St Paul’s Church and the San Carlos Theater. However, it’s probably most famous for being home to nighttime hotspots like Sloppy Joe’s Bar and Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville. Alight at stop five and see the Ernest Hemingway House Museum where he's rumoured to have written A Farewell to Arms - and don't forget to look for the six- or seven-toed cats! The next few stops provide some contrast; check out the Civil War-era East Martello Fort and Museum and relax on the white sand of Smather’s Beach. Saving the best till last with Stop 10 being at the monument that marks the southernmost point in the US, just 90 miles from Cuba. The tour doesn’t have to end there – you could head back to the Old Town to cool off with a drink and savour Key West with its shops, cafés and galleries. Make sure to stay in Mallory Square for an unmissable sunset.

A thriving hub of art, history and culture, Miami also plays home to some of the USA’s most breathtaking beaches, which is where this guided adventure begins. Embrace the enchantments of the Magic City as you saunter its soft white sands barefoot before swapping the rolling ocean waves for a wander around the array of art deco buildings. Observe age-old hotels and establishments from times gone by before reentering the modern era to spectate the stunning skyscrapers that tower the vibrant city streets. You’ll also pay a visit to the lush enclave of Coconut Grove, as well as the city’s luscious green parks, The Kampong and the Barnacle Historic State Park. The next two stops on our itinerary explore Miami’s Spanish speaking community, where you’ll learn all there is to know about the city's Latin artists. The day will draw to a stylish close at Bayside Marketplace, where you’re free to shop til you drop or savour a thirst-quenching sip overlooking beautiful Biscayne Bay.

Up for some good old fashioned fun? Look no further that Kissimmee's theme park blast from the past, Fun Spot America Theme Park. This is proper old school Americana - think family fun fuelled by oh-so-bad but oh-so-good hot dogs, slices and soda. The rides may be less innovative than those at the poster-child theme parks but they're no less thrilling.

Have a go on the high-flying Headrush 360, throw your hands in the air like you just don't care on the Galaxy Spin coaster, or get competitive on the go karts and bumper cars. This is the perfect place to pair with an afternoon exploring Old Town Kissimmee when you are taking a day out from the main parks.

There are a selection of ticket options available including the Sampler which includes four rides, two drinks (draft beer or wine) or unlimited soft drinks. Chat to us for more details.
