• Bora Bora 4x4 Tour (Bora Bora, French Polynesia)
  Explore the astonishing scenery of Bora Bora while trekking through the lush jungles on an open-top 4x4 SUV.

• Rotorua Thermal Valley Tour (Auckland, New Zealand)
  Take a scenic ride to the Rotorua geothermal valley where the ground spouts, bubbles and pours steam out of the abstract landscape.

Guides will teach you more about Maori culture when you visit a recreated Maori Village nearby.
   

• A Night at the Opera (Sydney, Australia)
  Attend an evening performance at the famous Sydney Opera House, one of the most recognizable architectural designs in the world. The exterior of the opera house may provide your best photo opportunity, but the real treat begins when the performers take the stage to wow you with their amazing voices and acute story-telling.
   

• Tahiti Helicopter Tour (Papeete, Tahiti)
  For the best views of Tahiti’s gorgeous greens and blues, you really have to take flight and see the islands from high above!

• Napa Valley Wine Tour (San Francisco, California)
  This extensive tour of California’s Napa Valley will treat your eyes just as much as your palette. Go behind-the-scenes at the Rutherford Hills Winery to learn the ins and outs of grape growing and wine production, and then enjoy a delicious tasting of the finished product! Afterwards, enjoy a gourmet luncheon followed by a tour of the Domaine Cameros Winery estate.
   

• Hawaii Whale Watching (Honolulu, Hawaii)
  Head out off the coast of Honolulu for a catamaran whale watching tour in the warm Pacific waters.
