streets and beautiful white cubist buildings that characterize the island's architecture. This afternoon we temporarily leave Mykonos for our excursion (weather permitting) to the neighboring island of Delos to visit the Temple of Apollo and other fascinating archaeological sites.

From here the panoramic view of the entire island and the caldera is majestic. Then we stop at the famous Red Beach located by the village of Akrotiri. Then it's on to the black beach of Perissa where we can have lunch and swim 
before proceeding to the picturesque village of Megalohori with its typical traditional Cycladic houses and neoclassic buildings.
Sunset in Oia is not to be missed! In the evening hordes of people arrive simply to watch its sunset. Every available seat, wall, step or patch of ground is occupied so our group will arrive in time to browse the tiny shops and get a good view.

We will be met at the port and transferred to our Crete hotel. After checking in we will have time for beach and swimming before we go out exploring for the evening with our tour leader.
Vacation Day 8 - Crete
The center of the Minoan civilization was the Palace of Knossos, one of the island’s showstopping historical attractions. The original site is believed to have been built around 1900 BC, but following an earthquake, it was rebuilt on a grand scale, and lavish royal quarters, shrines, treasuries and storerooms were added around the Central Court. Hear the legends and Greek folklore while exploring areas of the palace like the Throne Room, home to frescoes of the Minoan’s sacred mythical beasts. Our guide will take us through the Central Court and gaze up at sights like the Grand Staircase. See an impressive fresco of rampaging bulls, and explore the corridors and labyrinth-like alleyways 
that lead to intriguing rooms such as the Theatral Area – a place that may have once existed as a theater.
Let's visit the center of Heraklion town, surrounded by a formidable medieval wall, which was used to protect it from enemies. Maybe have a coffee, a Greek dessert or an ice cream in one of the many coffee shops/patisseries in Heraklion's main square. Or spend some time shopping, buy a designer outfit or a last minute souvenir - you may find a curio distinctly different from the typical "gift".
Vacation Day 9 - Crete/Jeep Safari
Today we get to see the hidden charms of Creter, enjoy breathtaking views, rural areas and the unique feeling of driving a jeep in Greece! Our start point is Chersonissos, from where we drive along the typical village of Avdou southwards to Aski village for our first coffee stop. From this point we start the off-road track leading to the Dikti
Mountains. 
We will drive southwards among wonderful olive trees and vineyards to reach our peaceful BBQ place where we will enjoy our lunch. After this break we will go northwards, through off road tracks to reach an altitude of 1900 meters, from where we will enjoy a breathtaking view of the Plateau of Lassithi. From here we will descend to
900 m. and we will cross the Plateau enjoying the view of its crops and windmills and we will have our last refreshment in the village of Psichro.
Tonight we gather together for music, fantastic views and our Farewell Dinner.

Our vacation will begin at 7:00pm with a meet and greet and a walk to a local restaurant (dinner not included) with your fellow travelers. Palermo is the fifth largest Italian city with approximately 1 million inhabitants. It is. Fascinating city full of contrasts - you will be in awe from historical palaces contrasting with the shabby looking houses but you will fall in love with local cuisine such as arancini - the fried rice balls or grilled octopus put in the traditional bread roll called vastedda. Palermo feels like you stepped into the Orient or even into an Arabic world. It is full of contrasts but it is appealing to visitors and it has a strong charisma.
Vacation Day 2: Palermo - Monreale ( August 12, 2024) 
After breakfast, we’ll set off to discover Palermo’s heart, through its traditional “street food.” Our local knowledgeable guide will take us for a walk through the historic part of the city and its vibrant outdoor markets. Indulge all your senses on a walking tour of Palermo's rich street food traditions. Sample some of Palermo's unique street foods, such as 'panelle' and 'meusa.' while learning about the history of this amazing city. Our tour also includes stops at the main historical squares and several hidden spots of the city center, ending with a visit of the splendid Cathedral of Palermo. The Cathedral of Palermo was founded by Gualtiero Offamilio, archbishop of the town from 1169 to 1190. It was a mosque in Islamic times and converted into a cathedral church by Roberto the Guiscardo after the conquest of Palermo. It is a true treasure of Norman architecture. 
This afternoon we head to Monreale, with its charm and beauty, it is one of Sicily's most important cultural sights. Today with a local guide, we’ll visit the hilltop town of Monreale to have a private guided tour of its impressive 12th-century Arab-Norman cathedral, with one of the largest and most beautiful displays of mosaic artwork in the world. This cathedral is a UNESCO World Heritage List monument!

One of these is described as “the most impressive surviving Doric temple in the Greek world after the Parthenon in Athens,” according to UNESCO. We’ll have time for a quick lunch, on our own, before continuing on to our 4-star hotel in the quaint hamlet of Ortigia for a free evening.

Swim in the crystal clear waters at the Stair of the Turks cliffs on our boating excursion from Agrigento. They are white cliffs that look like perfect steps heading down to the sea. It is a fascinating site. As you realize, it is not a real staircase but a natural stretch of a coastline that has become a Sicilian tourist seascape icon thanks to its special features. Nature, like a great artist, worked on it for a long time making it look like a wonderfully white terrace with the help of a sea and a salty breeze, smoothing out every angle.
Observe the Saracen tower and the coves of the coast. Stop to go for a refreshing dip in this scenic location. Continue west for stunning views of the lighthouse of Capo Rossello, the Bay of Madonnina, and Gucciarda rocks. Go for a second swim in a spot with blue water and breathtaking views.

Vacation Day 10 - Taormina - Mt Etna
Taormina, also known as the “Pearl of the Mediterranean” has been a sought-after vacation destination since Roman times. As probably the most perfect coastal resort town in Southern Italy, its popularity is entirely justified.

Lawrence’s novel Lady Chatterley's Lover, and Goethe termed Taormina as a “patch of paradise” in his novel Italian Journey. This morning we visit Mt.

Experience Yellowstone & Teton National Parks as few others do.
Winter is a wonderful time to experience Yellowstone & Teton with fascinating snowy landscapes, and frosty animals. Geyser basins are magical when influenced by cold temperatures, becoming what one might call, canvases of fire and ice. As the snow drapes a wintry blanket a peace settles over the landscape and becomes a frost-covered wonderland. Our winter experience offers incredible photography and wildlife watching. Join this singles weekend and enjoy a Winter Safari getaway through two National Parks.

Arrive at the Jackson Hole Airport and make your way to the group's hotel, the Wort Hotel, built in 1941, this stately, upscale Old West-style hotel is a 2-minute walk from central Jackson.

Take part in the tradition of delicious waffles atop Rendezvous Peak at Corbet's Cabin. These tasty treats are made-to-order with your choice of toppings (even bacon!), and are the perfect snack.
Vacation Day 3: Full Day Yellowstone Naltional Park - Old Faithful Snow Coach Tour
Sit back and enjoy the scenery to Old Faithful in comfort as we are being chauffeured by an experienced, knowledgeable guide. Equipped with four oversized low-pressure tires, the snowcoach moves on top of the snow and will give us great views of the park scenery while touring Yellowstone. Our tour will take us to the Old Faithful Geyser making several stops along the way to learn about the Park's history, view thermal features, and take pictures.
Our day begins with an early morning pick up and breakfast will be a grab and go style on the way to Yellowstone. We'll travel 45 miles (one-way) of groomed trail to Old Faithful, making several stops along the way, with opportunities to get out and walk around. Points of interest may include Moose Falls, Lewis Canyon, Lewis Falls, and West Thumb Geyser Basin. The highlight of our day will be watching Old Faithful erupt as the contrast of the grayish-white steam against the snow and the stunningly blue skies creates a heightened sense of the Earth’s powerful forces. 
In winter Old Faithful regularly shoots sprays of water more than 100 feet in the air, erupts, the near-boiling water hits the chilly air forming “geyser rain.” Watch as these tiny icy crystals and flakes fall to the ground.
We will return to Jackson Hole just in time to have dinner.

Our hotel, the All-Inclusive Riu Palace Peninsula is located in the heart of Cancun. The resort is situated on a dazzling stretch of white sand beach and framed by tropical vegetation and crystal clear turquoise water.
The pools are definitely the centerpiece of the hotel. Separate, but close together, the hotel's three main pools -- infinity, sports activity pool with volleyball and basketball nets, and swimming -- are all located just before the beachfront and surrounded by neatly landscaped grounds. There's even a small archeological site by the swim-up pool bar.
Since Cancun is a tropical destination overflowing with miles of gorgeous Caribbean sea and beachfront, there's no questioning why most of Riu Peninsula's features are set outdoors. The beach is split into two sections: a sugar-sand beach punctuated with palm trees, loungers, and cabanas; and a rocky shoreline complete with crashing waves and natural vibe.
There is entertainment in the lounge-y outdoor, but covered, theater space, there's also an outdoor stage that hosts live music performances to kick off the night.
| Plus Spend A Day Golf Carting On Isla Mujeres All Included in Your Weekend Package   |
There's no lack of bars at the Riu Palace Peninsula. From the classy ocean-view lobby bar with nightly piano player, to the 24-hour Sports Bar, to the swim-up pool bar, Riu keeps your whistle wet. While Sports Bar, filled with live sports games on screens, pool tables, and video games, may be the only joint open 24-hours, most other bars on the property open at 10 a.m. and close around midnight. Outdoor watering holes include Trinidad, the swim-up pool bar that also has a covered landlocked section with seating, and Tobago, the beach bar. At night Tobago transforms into a beachside lounge spot with soft lighting, cabanas, and lounge areas -- although it's usually fairly empty as people tend to stick around La Plaza or La Latino, the two bars flanking the theater, or inside the snazzy lobby bar, Cabanga.
Of course a trip to Cancun would not be complete without a shopping visit to the famous downtown flea market. Shop for all those Mexican souvenirs and tee shirts you need to bring home. Don't forget to bargain!
Our singles vacation package includes all meals, bottomless beverages both alcoholic and non-alcoholic, and a mix of really exciting fun activities and amazing entertainment.
