Serene from afar, chaotic up close, Istanbul is more than meets the eye.
Once the capital of the Ottoman and Byzantine empires, the popular Turkish city is cut in half by the Bosphorus Strait, with one side on Europe and the other on Asia. A skyline of domes, steeples, and modern architecture offer an intriguing feeling that represents the past and present.
Indulging in Turkish cuisine is a must, consisting of a fusion of Middle Eastern, Asian and Mediterranean flavors.

From rags to riches, Dubai was once a lowly fishing village that has now garnered the reputation of being one of the wealthiest countries in the world.
It’s home to gravity-defying skyscrapers, the insanely luxurious Dubai Mall, shimmering man-made islands, and a vast desert ideal for camel riding and dune bashing.
It also has a colorful array of souks, or marketplaces, filled with intoxicating sights and smells.

The Big Apple took a major hit in 2020, with residents fleeing town for space, but nothing can hold a city with so much possibility down for that long.
NYC is thriving once again, and tourists are eager to explore its many attractions. Dine at a rooftop restaurant, slink into an underground club, enjoy a show on Broadway, climb the Empire State Building, ogle at the Statue of Liberty, and take a breath of fresh air in Central Park.
