The Canary Islands, a Spanish archipelago off the northwest coast of Africa, offer far more than just sunshine and beaches. Made up of eight main islands, each with its own personality, the Canaries are a place where lunar landscapes, cloud forests, volcanic peaks, and historic towns coexist within short travel distances. On Tenerife, Mount Teide looms over a landscape of solidified lava and craters that look like a science fiction set.

Tanzania, located in East Africa along the Indian Ocean, is a country of extraordinary landscapes and cultural diversity. It is home to Africa’s tallest peak, Mount Kilimanjaro, and vast plains such as the Serengeti, where wildlife roams freely across open savannas.

Williams is a small city in northern Arizona, located along historic Route 66 and near the edge of the Kaibab National Forest. It is often known as the “Gateway to the Grand Canyon” due to its role as a departure point for the Grand Canyon Railway.

Devil’s Bridge National Park, located on the rugged Atlantic coast of Antigua, is one of the island’s most dramatic natural landmarks. The park is named after its striking limestone arch, carved over centuries by relentless waves and wind.

Karnak Temple is a huge, open air complex and, after the Giza Pyramids, the second most visited historical place in Egypt. The largest religious building ever constructed, it sits on 200 acres—a true wonder of the world. Decayed pylons, chapels and temples make up this unmissable historical attraction near Luxor.
