"A Champagne Tour On A Beer Budget: Reims, France","Taste the finest wines, see the room where German Forces surrendered in World War II, visit a significant Cathedral, and have a famous pink biscuit! Visit the focal center of the region of Champagne, France, to take a look at the contrast of ancient traditions and modern life in the city. Tour one of the most prestigious Champagne houses in the world - one of the many available to visit in Reims - and learn more about this beautiful region and its famous bubbly wine. Then take a trip into an underground network of over 120 kilometers of champagne cellars.<div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Champagne House</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Time for Lunch</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">An Open Bus Tour</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Cathedral & So Much More</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Take a cover up when you visit the champagne cellars: they can be chilly. Also wear comfortable shoes: most cellar visits will involve climbing up and down steps. Some champagne houses can accommodate the needs of families with children and people with disabilities, so call ahead if you are traveling with a person with reduced mobility.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Take frequent breaks at the many sidewalk cafes. You will be able to maintain your energy throughout the day and also take in more of the local atmosphere. People watching is one of the favorite French pastimes. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Want to know if you should tip in Reims? If the bill says 'service compri' this means the tip is included. However, you won't go wrong adding an extra ten percent if you are satisfied with the service. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">At the end of September and the beginning of October the area explodes with life during the harvest. Over 100,000 seasonal workers descend on the area, and many visitors as well. It's a great time to visit but be sure to book ahead if you are planning to come during this season. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">There is a splendid TGV EST (high-speed train) that joins Paris Gare de l'Est and Reims in less than 45 minutes. It is quite an experience and much more relaxing than driving. All attractions are within walking distance from the train station.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00045902376ae9e2b69b8&ll=49.264948,4.034386&spn=0.030581,0.071754&z=14&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00045902376ae9e2b69b8&ll=49.264948,4.034386&spn=0.030581,0.071754&z=14&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">A Champagne Tour On A Beer Budget: Reims, France Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",SD010057,audio|cd|quietguide|video,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/reims_tour_near_paris_preview.pdf,http://www.youtube.com/embed/yIVhwuuHrE8,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B003ZYFCHY,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940012464576,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Introduction"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0057ReimsCh\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/ReimsCh1_Intro.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0057ReimsCh\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/ReimsCh1_Intro.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""The Champagne House"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0057ReimsCh\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/ReimsCh2_House.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0057ReimsCh\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/ReimsCh2_House.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Time for Lunch"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0057ReimsCh\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/ReimsCh3_Lunch.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0057ReimsCh\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/ReimsCh3_Lunch.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""An Open Bus Tour"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0057ReimsCh\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/ReimsCh4_BusTour.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0057ReimsCh\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/ReimsCh4_BusTour.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""The Cathedral & So Much More"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0057ReimsCh\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/ReimsCh5_Cathedral.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0057ReimsCh\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/ReimsCh5_Cathedral.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]}]}",Introduction:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0057ReimsCh/mp3/ReimsCh1_Intro.mp3|The Champagne House:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0057ReimsCh/mp3/ReimsCh2_House.mp3|Time for Lunch:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0057ReimsCh/mp3/ReimsCh3_Lunch.mp3|An Open Bus Tour:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0057ReimsCh/mp3/ReimsCh4_BusTour.mp3|The Cathedral & So Much More:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0057ReimsCh/mp3/ReimsCh5_Cathedral.mp3|
"A City In Paradise: San Jose, Costa Rica","
<p>Well known for its natural beauty, Costa Rica is also graced with an attractive capital city, located in a tropical valley between forested volcanic ranges. San Jose's comfortable climate ensures verdant green parks accented with colorful exotic flowers, and encourages walks along vibrant pedestrian thoroughfares.This Central American gem showcases museums with pre-Colombian art, lively markets, and a beautiful theater next to a charming, friendly plaza.

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">San Jose, Costa Rica has a distinct dry season from January to April. This is also the high season; so make sure you book in advance! It can rain a lot the rest of the year, getting downright torrential in October and November.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">As in most large cities, due to crime, you should avoid parks and other desolate areas at night. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Change your money at the official kiosk in the airport upon arrival in San Jose - or use ATMs. You will get a better exchange rate than moneychangers on the street, who often give counterfeit bills.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Don't touch anything in the rain forests in Costa Rica. Many plants have hidden thorns, and hairy caterpillars can be venomous. So are those cute and colorful frogs, which can also be harmed by the bug repellent on your hands.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>

A Walk Through Beijing's Past,"<p>Entertaining, enlightening, and enchanting are words that best describe this walking tour through Beijing's past. Begin at BeihaiPark, Beijing's most popular park that was founded in the 900s. Besides the historical aspect, it's a veritable variety show on weekends! Watch people practicing ballroom and traditional Chinese dancing, juggling and singing. Next move on to a leisurely stroll through the lakes district, with its endangered hutongs. These ancient housing areas are fast being replaced with modern housing. Finally, spend a relaxing respite at the gracious and stately home of the late Soong Ching Ling. She was known as the 'mother of China.'</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Playful: Beihai Park</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Disappearing: Beijing's Hutongs</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">What's Left Today</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Gracious: Soong Ching Ling House</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Traffic is horrendous in Beijing, especially during rush hour. Taxis levy a surcharge when traffic is heavy, and sometimes this surcharge will kick in after two blocks. Use Beijing's efficient subway system as much as possible to whisk you around the city. If a subway stop isn't near your destination, take a taxi from the nearest stop.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Smoking is losing popularity in Beijing: it is not permitted in museums, both indoor and outdoor such as the Summer Palace and Forbidden City. Nor is it permitted in parks.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Tipping usually isn't done in China, although major Western restaurants will add a 15 percent service charge. Wait staff at neighborhood restaurants - and taxi drivers - won't accept tips for doing their jobs.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Chinese currency is officially known as 'renminbi' or 'people's money,' and is frequently abbreviated as 'rmb'. On the street, however, paper money is known as 'yuan' or, in slang, as 'kuai.' Coins are called 'jiao' or 'miao.'</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Don't be afraid to take off walking. It's a good way to get a feel for Beijing.

"A Walk Through Old Bern, Switzerland","This walking tour takes you around the Old City in Switzerland's capital. Bern is a small and picturesque city by the River Aare, and its medieval Old Town is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The buildings have been preserved extremely well and it is a fascinating area. Walking is the best way to get around the cobblestone streets anyway: cars are not even allowed in! The medieval stone arcades are filled with cafes, restaurants and boutiques, and many of Bern's tourist attractions are here: highlights include the Gothic cathedral M&#252;nster and the old clock tower Zytglogge.<br /><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Old City in Bern</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Railway Station to B&#228;renplatz</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Two Market Squares</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Zytglogge & the Einstein House</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The M&#252;nster Cathedral</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Parliament House & Square</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Wear good walking shoes! The cobblestone streets are not made for high heels and since this tour is all about strolling around the picturesque old town, make sure your shoes are suitable for a couple of hours of walking. During the spring and fall it can be incredibly sunny, or it can rain, so carry an umbrella.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Most shops are closed on Sundays, and most of them also close early on Saturdays, around 4pm. Closing times vary during the week, but Thursday is generally a late shopping night, which here in Bern means that stores may stay open until 8pm. Saturday is a good day to explore the weekly markets.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Bern is German-speaking, though French is widely spoken as well. Don't worry if your German is non-existent: all tourist information is available in English. People who work in tourist information services speak excellent English. If some Bernese residents seem reluctant to speak English, it is not because they cannot speak it: they just don't feel that their English is perfect.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you don't want to walk all the way, trams #6, 7, 8 and 9 travel from the railway station to the clock tower Zytglogge.

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Although most park merchandise can be found at the main store (Islands of Adventure Trading Company), Lost Continent souvenirs are the exception. Many of that land's items are unique, so go ahead and pick up anything you might want.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Since most of the attractions are outdoors, many guests leave if it starts to rain. Prepare for the weather by carrying a poncho, and take advantage of vastly reduced waits. The rides only close if lightning occurs within five miles.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Table service dining is a wonderful way to celebrate a special occasion, or simply rest and relax.

"Air Crossroads Of The World: Anchorage, Alaska","Known as the Air Crossroads of the World, Anchorage is an extremely popular international destination and one of the busiest air freight gateways in the world. Yet the city retains a friendly, small town feel. Anchorage is home to over 1,000 non-domesticated moose, a sharp reminder that the untamed wilderness lies in the city's backyard.<br /><br />In this tour, an experienced Alaska traveler will act as your personal guide as you explore both the famous tourist attractions and the lesser-known delights.

"Alaska Starts Here: Seward, Alaska","Seward, Alaska has long been an important connection between Alaska and the Lower 48. As such, it is a common stopover for many travelers. Yet visitors often miss Seward's wonders, spending only a short time here on their way to more exotic destinations.<br /><br />In this tour, we will explore both sides of Seward--the busy tourist stop and the quaint fishing village.

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Leave time in your schedule for shopping in Seward. Local stores such as Once in a Blue Moose are unique and packed with fascinating Alaska-made items.

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Make it a point to talk to everyone you encounter.

Locals are a particularly great source of information for planning trips to nearby towns.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Seward's crime rate is so low as to be practically nonexistent, making it safe to explore at all hours.

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Seward lies between the cold ocean water on one side and the always snow-capped mountains on the other.

America's Largest Chinatown: San Francisco,"<p>The 24 square blocks of San Francisco's dynamic Chinatown teem with activity 365 days a year. Beloved Grant Avenue, with its red lanterns and bright facades, brims with woks, kites, and kitschy souvenirs galore.

Enticing smells waft through the air: dim sum dumplings, mooncakes from traditional bakeries, and fortune cookies from a back-alley 'factory.' Vying for space on the packed thoroughfares and quiet alleyways are old-fashioned apothecaries, incense-filled temples, historic churches, one-seat barbershops, family benevolent associations, serene teahouses, fresh fruit stalls, and worlds more.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Grant Avenue</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Historic Portsmouth Square</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Eating Throughout Chinatown</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Chinatown Alleyways</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Places of Worship</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>

"Ancient Roots In A Modern City: Osaka, Japan","We will take the escalator up through the outside girders of Umeda Sky Building to see the splendid views of city, river, and port. In the basement we will find a meticulously recreated heritage shopping street as well as a modern cafe. We will walk by the river, admire the street sculpture, and the Museum of Ceramics, and visit the fabulous gold and white castle with its spectacular dolphin roof finials.

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you see umbrellas for sale at the front of shops, buy one. It's definitely going to rain!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Western bakeries are very popular and are great places to buy breakfast if you don't fancy Miso soup first thing in the morning. Better hotels may have one in the lobby, available to anyone passing through.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Book shops are often to be found at rail stations. Look for Sudoku and other logic puzzles, if that's your thing. Graphic novels (Manga) are also available, but note some of the books can be very explicit! Books usually read from 'back' to 'front' in Western terms.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">It's polite to bow--a nod of the head will do unless you're meeting someone REALLY important--and it helps establish rapport with the person you're talking to. Don't overdo it or the checkout girl will feel obliged to bow lower. The Japanese know you're a foreigner and are very forgiving.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>

Angel Island: Guarding San Francisco's Bay,"
<p>Angel Island State Park is the largest island in the bay, known as the 'Jewel of the San Francisco Bay.' This grassy, woodland-covered mountain island is an adventure lover's delight, filled with multi-use trails and historic buildings. Ferries arrive daily, or visitors may take their own boat. Once here, tour the historic Immigration Station, decommissioned army forts, the Ayala Cove, or climb to the summit of Mount Caroline Livermore. Overnight camping is permitted. Docent-led nature hikes and historic tours are available. Tram tours circle the island for those unable to walk far. Come over and visit Angel Island!</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Faces of Angel Island</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Ayala Cove</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Climbing Mt.

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The entire Angel Island State Park has been reopened, including all trails and camping, after the massive October 2008 wildfire. Visitors are encouraged to stay out of the burned area because there are still hazards. Additional information may be obtained by calling the Ranger Station at (415) 435-5390.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">90-minute docent-led tours of the Immigration Station are given twice daily Wednesday through Sunday. Reservations are required; call (415) 435-3522, or visit the their website.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Another fine docent-led walk is called the 'Angel Island Wildflower Ramble,' which occurs every Sunday. For reservations call (415) 435-3522. The tour follows a wide array of footpaths all the way to the summit, then back to Ayala Cove in a circuitous loop.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Personal bicycles may be brought to the island on the ferry and used on designated roads. Bikes and Segways can also be rented in Ayala Cove. Dogs are not allowed. Roller skates and skateboards are prohibited. No wood fires are allowed but there are designated barbecue and picnic areas available for walk-in use. A few campsites are also available for reservation. Call the Ranger Station at (415) 435-5390 for more information on camping permits.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Hiking trails, fire roads, and the Perimeter Road provide easy access to the whole island, including many breathtaking views and almost all the historic sites.

Angkor: The Jewel In Cambodia,"<p>Angkor is found just outside the Cambodian city of Siem Reap, with its nearby airport. For more than a century it has captivated the hearts and minds of westerners, but until recently wasn't a viable destination for any but the most daring travelers. With the stabilization of Cambodia's government and the improved infrastructure, visiting is now the ideal experience for anyone looking for unbelievable beauty and wonder. With more than seventy temples and palaces, Angkor is a place of dreams, and should be on everyone's list of places to visit in their life.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Bayon</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Terrace of the Elephants</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Ta Prohm</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Angkor Wat</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Phnom Bakheng</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Conclusion</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">When visiting Angkor, make sure you wear appropriate clothing. This means fairly modest clothing that covers, even though it will be quite hot during some seasons. This is still a series of functioning temples, and the Khmer will appreciate it if you respect their religious space. Generally, ask yourself if you would wear your outfit to church or synagogue.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Learning a few key phrases in Khmer will allow you to make the people you meet very happy. Unlike neighboring Thailand, very few travelers to Cambodia bother to learn any Khmer, so even learning to say hello (sues'day) or thank you (awkun) will get you many smiles.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Don't drink unbottled water, and don't eat fruits with skins still on them. It should go without saying, but it only takes one slip to leave you with a very unpleasant stomach bug. And ice is the silent menace that people always forget: fruit juice is safe, but if it has ice in the glass, politely send it back.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">US currency is accepted in Cambodia, and is in many cases easier to deal with than the riel. Carry lots of one dollar bills, as many things will cost a dollar.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>

"Archaeological Sites Of Sedona, AZ","<p>The Southern Sinagua began building their large pueblo communities in what is now the Sedona region around 1150 CE, and they thrived there for 350 years. Three notable sites in the Verde Valley are the neighboring Tuzigoot, Palatki and Montezuma's Castle settlements. Walnut Canyon is outside the Verde Valley, but was developed early on by the Sinagua, keeping in close association with their kinfolk 35 miles south. The Sedona region cliff-dwellings, pueblos, petroglyphs, and pictographs are some of the finest in the American Southwest. We'll visit the major sites and the minor ones too, examine the ancient culture, and discover fascinating relics near the New Age mecca of Sedona, Arizona.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Sedona Archaeological Sites </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Tuzigoot</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Palatki and Honanki</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Montezuma's Well and Castle</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">V-Bar-V petroglyphs</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Walnut Canyon</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Walnut Canyon, Tuzigoot, Palatki and nearby Honanki were the largest cliff-dwellings in this part of Arizona, built about 800 years ago. The walls are more fragile than they appear - please don't ever climb or lean on them. Some of these sites also include delicate prehistoric Native American paintings. Never touch the pictographs: many are only red mud that will crumble at a touch, and natural oils from your fingers can contaminate the pigments, preventing future chemical analysis.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Because of the fragile state of the ruins, visitors need to call Palatki at (928)282-3854 between 9:30am and 3pm to make a reservation. Reservations help the Forest Service manage the number of visitors who arrive at the site. You may be turned away without a reservation if there are too many visitors.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Red Rock parking passes are required at Palatki, Honanki, and V-Bar-V Ranch. The sites are free to visit, but a Red Rock Pass must be displayed on every vehicle. They are available at the Heritage Site Visitor Centers run by the U.S. Forest Service. There are other locations in Sedona and elsewhere that advertise and sell the passes. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Dogs on a leash are allowed at Tuzigoot and both of the Montezuma sites, but are limited to the parking lots of Walnut Canyon, V-Bar-V Ranch, Palatki and Honanki.

Aspen And Snowmass In The Winter,"<p>Aspen was founded as a mining camp in the late 1880s during the Colorado silver boom. We'll explore some of the buildings and relics of this bygone era, including the ghost town of Ashcroft, only 12 miles away. We'll take a ski tour of all four mountains, visit some ski shrines, attend the best apr&#232;s-ski parties, and cross-country ski to a winter hut. Aspen was named for the abundance of aspen trees in the area, but today the name is synonymous with colorful characters, movie stars, and the extremely wealthy. Oh, and let's not forget the stunning mountain beauty.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Aspen in the Winter</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">An Aspen Winterscape</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">World-Class Ski Resorts</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Snowmass Ski Mt. & Village</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Shrines & Mines</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Ashcroft & Hut Trips</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Aspen/Snowmass is accessible by two of the most convenient airports in the mountains: Aspen/Pitkin County Airport (ASE), three miles from Aspen, and Eagle County Airport (EGE), 70 miles from Aspen. If a flight cannot land in ASE or EGE, it will be rerouted to Denver and passengers will be brought by bus to their destination, for free. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Buying lift tickets, lessons, and equipment rentals a week or more in advance saves money. It also saves time by having your lift tickets delivered directly to your lodge. Save even more by leaving your gear at home - no airline baggage fees - and rent equipment from one of the sport stores in town. For more information on Aspen Skiing Company, you may call them or visit their website.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">To get to Ashcroft, drive one mile northwest out of Aspen on State Route 82 past the Holden/Marolt Mining and Ranching Museum. At the Roundabout follow the signs 12 miles south to Ashcroft. A system of 29 backcountry huts in the Colorado Rocky Mountains, connected by 350 miles of suggested routes, is managed by 10th Mountain. For information on renting a hut, see their website. Reservations are also taken by phone.<br /></ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you love powder skiing, take a 'powder tour.' Luxury snowcats take you to prime untracked stashes on the backside of Aspen Mountain.

"Azores, And Terceira","Nine little gems in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, the volcanic Azores Islands are a quick four-hour plane ride from the U.S. East Coast, so you can essentially be in Europe in less time than it takes to go from coast to coast. The Azores are Portuguese, with their own colorful maritime history, indigenous cuisine and wines, plenty of outdoor activities for travelers, and warm and friendly people. Terceira Island, third largest of the Azores, has a UNESCO World Heritage city, golf, paragliding, whale-watching, caves, and some unique and exciting customs that involve bulls and umbrellas. <div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Terceira Island</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Angra do Heroismo</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Terceiran Cuisine</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Activities On Terceira</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Bull Runs</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Holy Spirit Houses</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">It would be good to take a Portuguese-English dictionary with you to the Azores. Some English is spoken in its main city of Angra do Heroismo, but in the countryside you may have to rely on the dictionary, and you can't fake it with a Romance language background, as Portuguese does not sound anything like Spanish, Italian, or French. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Be sure to ask at your hotel when and where the next bull run will take place, and go to see it. Unique to Terceira, this is a bull run like no other, and very exciting to watch. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Read a little Portuguese history before you come, especially that between the 15th and 17th Centuries and focusing on the maritime history of the Azores. It will make all of the historic buildings and monuments and churches on this island more meaningful when you see them.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>

Barcelona's Gothic Quarter,"From the Cathedral's square to little-known pastry shops on hidden alleyways, Barcelona's Gothic Quarter, or <i>Barri Gotic</i>, is one of the city's most fascinatingareas. Here the old Roman Wall still stands, weaving in and out of fashionable boutiques, restaurants, museums and palm tree-clad plazas. Our tour visits what I consider to be the 'Best of the Gothic Quarter' as a local here in Barcelona. We'll touch on some of the biggies, like <i>El Palau</i>, but will also visit some spots most tourists miss, such as La Granja. Our tour ends by the sea at an authentic tapa bar.<div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">El Palau, Market, & Cathedral</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Vila Madrid, La Granja, & Placa Pi</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Santa Maria & El Borne</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Post Office, Port, & Beach</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Be prepared to walk! Barcelona is a walkable city and hoofing it is the best mode of transport. Bring comfortable shoes and don't forget your map. In the spring and summer you'll want sunscreen for long days walking around the sunny city. If you tire of walking, grab a bike taxi and have them cycle you around the Gothic Zone.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Watch out! It's no joke, Barcelona is infamous for pickpockets. Though it is fairly safe and violent crime is rare, many tourists are robbed in Barcelona. Some of the worst spots are: the metro, the airport and the airport shuttle bus, the tourist bus, in lines for important Gaudi sites, and on Las Ramblas.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Avoid eating on Las Ramblas which is dangerous (see tip 2), overpriced, and usually not very good quality. For better deals and a more authentic experience try eating off of the main tourist tracks and venturing further into the Gothic Quarter. Here you will find many unique and delicious cafes and restaurants.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">When buying souvenirs in the Gothic Zone consider buying from the artisans who are usually set up in the Cathedral Plaza. These artists are local and purchasing their crafts and foods is a surefire way to get a real Barcelona-buy. Another good place to shop is at the Plaza de Pi's painter's market on the weekends.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Here's a tip, don't tip! This was hard for me to get used to as an American, but tipping is not common in Barcelona. When people tip it is because they have some extra change and they leave it behind or because the service is excellent.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00047007bf4dc125307b5&ll=41.384432,2.179059&spn=0.005458,0.013937&z=15&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00047007bf4dc125307b5&ll=41.384432,2.179059&spn=0.005458,0.013937&z=15&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Barcelona's Gothic Quarter Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",RW010105,audio|cd|quietguide|video,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/barcelonas_gothic_quarter_preview.pdf,http://www.youtube.com/embed/n1hNdtDh2Nk,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004Z20G58,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940012608291,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Introduction"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0105BarGthc\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/BarGthc1_Intro.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0105BarGthc\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/BarGthc1_Intro.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""El Palau, Market, & Cathedral"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0105BarGthc\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/BarGthc2_ElPalau.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0105BarGthc\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/BarGthc2_ElPalau.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Vila Madrid, La Granja, & Placa Pi"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0105BarGthc\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/BarGthc3_VlMadrid.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0105BarGthc\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/BarGthc3_VlMadrid.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Santa Maria & El Borne"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0105BarGthc\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/BarGthc4_ElBorne.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0105BarGthc\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/BarGthc4_ElBorne.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Post Office, Port, & Beach"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0105BarGthc\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/BarGthc5_PstOffc.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0105BarGthc\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/BarGthc5_PstOffc.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]}]}","Introduction:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0105BarGthc/mp3/BarGthc1_Intro.mp3|El Palau, Market, & Cathedral:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0105BarGthc/mp3/BarGthc2_ElPalau.mp3|Vila Madrid, La Granja, & Placa Pi:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0105BarGthc/mp3/BarGthc3_VlMadrid.mp3|Santa Maria & El Borne:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0105BarGthc/mp3/BarGthc4_ElBorne.mp3|Post Office, Port, & Beach:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0105BarGthc/mp3/BarGthc5_PstOffc.mp3|"

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The weather in Bariloche is fairly mild (think Northern California). It is still important to bring a warm jacket, rain protection, and a good pair of walking shoes. The trails are great regardless of the weather because of the thick vegetation.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Make sure to bring a nice set of clothes to wear out on the town, in addition to active wear. Bariloche is a metropolitan city and there is an active dining scene and nightlife.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If traveling to Bariloche during high season, make sure to book all reservations (such as a car rental and boat excursions) well in advance. This helps alleviate the headaches of overbooking, and saves you a lot of money: prices increase dramatically near high season.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Be sure to bring a camera that you feel comfortable operating, since Bariloche is full of wonderful picture opportunities.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Have an extra day in Argentina? Travel to Villa La Angostura or El Bolson. Villa La Angostura offers a sophisticated mountain feel with amazing views.

Bathurst: Australia's Gold Country,"<p>In 1815 the colonists of Australia blazed a road west through the Blue Mountains to settle in Bathurst. The beginning was difficult: cattle ranchers and farmers were cut off from the rest of the colony. That changed with the gold rush of the 1850s, when a boom of settlements appeared across the land. Today, the whole central part of Bathurst has been heritage-listed to preserve the history it possesses. And in the months of April and October, the vintage streets come alive with fans of the exciting Mount Panorama V-8 racing!</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Bathurst: City With a Golden History</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Town History and its People</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Racing History of Bathurst</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Bathurst Goldfields: Karingal Village </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Nearby Gold Towns</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>

Beijing For Kids,"<p>Beijing fairly teems with activities for youngsters! They can climb the Great Wall, eat fried crickets, and look for silly signs. Inside the zoo, they can see the pandas, then visit the world's largest inland aquarium. At Beijing's biggest flea market, shop for the latest toys, and browse thousands of items. Kids can start a photo collection of unusual wastebaskets... chill out in a park... work out on street side exercise equipment... catch a performance by Chinese acrobats or the Peking Opera... the list is endless!</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Beijing Zoo & Aquarium</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Out & About in Beijing</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Shopping for Toys & Souvenirs</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">From Athletes to Opera</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Chinese love children. They love to fuss over babies, toddlers or older children, especially if they have blonde hair. Don't be surprised if they want to have their picture taken with your children.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The 'D' stands for ditie, which is Mandarin for 'subway.' Subway stations are frequently located at intersections, but are not marked 'subway' in English. Instead look for a big 'D' inside a circle.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Always take your hotel's business card with the name and address written in Chinese characters. Show it to the taxi driver when you're ready to return to your hotel.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Bring disposable plastic forks if you don't think you can manage chopsticks; small neighborhood restaurants probably won't have any. Don't worry about holding your chopsticks properly; if you can feed yourself, you're doing fine.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Street food in Beijing can be fun, tasty, filling and cheap. Just make sure the vendor's snack stand is relatively clean.

Beijing: Finding Peace And Quiet,"<p>The most popular tourist attractions in Beijing can be very crowded, making your visit to the Chinese capital stressful. It's possible to escape some of the crowds by heading off the beaten path. The Temple of Heaven and Yonghegong are popular attractions, but they don't draw tourists like the Forbidden City. You can take a drive to the mountains to see Beijing's oldest temple, Tanzhesi. Or head out to scenic ShiDu, with its karst mountain formations: it's known as the Guilin of the north. Beijing is full of small parks and temples to enjoy, or you can chill out at a sidewalk caf&#233; in Houhai or Sanlitun.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Time Out for Temples</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Further Afield on Day Trips</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Chillin' Out in the 'Hoods</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If the weather is nice, plan on a picnic lunch at places such as Tanzhe' Temple, ShiDu or any of the Beijing parks. It's a nice break from restaurants.

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Get to know the various neighborhoods by getting off the subway at random stops. Spend awhile walking around, then hop back on and ride to another destination. Some subway stops are within a long walking distance of each other, so you could hike between them.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Bring disposable plastic forks if you don't think you can manage chopsticks; small neighborhood restaurants probably won't have any. Don't worry about holding your chopsticks properly; if you can feed yourself, you're doing fine.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Avoid expensive ATM withdrawal fees by getting money only at a Chinese bank that is affiliated with your bank at home. This way you'll only have to pay currency conversion fees. Contact your bank before you go for its Chinese affiliate.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Just because you see members of the same sex holding hands or walking arm in arm, don't assume they are gay.

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Commonwealth Avenue Mall was created in the late 19th century as part of a 7-mile long 'Emerald Necklace' that still exists today. Its purpose was to help clean up the marshy area left after the Back Bay landfill project. The mall spans 200 feet across, with wide roads for the horse-drawn carriages that once kicked up dust here.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Copley Plaza's tallest building, though not necessarily its most prominent, is I.M. Pei's mirror-like John Hancock Tower. When you stand in just the right spot, the tower's narrow north-facing glass wall seems to stand 60 stories as a single sheet of glass!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Alongside the Boston Garden Swanboat Lagoon, movie history was made in 1997. On a bench facing the placid water, Robin Williams delivered a sobering speech to Matt Damon that many say earned him his Oscar in the film 'Good Will Hunting.' </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Beacon Hill's steep, narrow streets evoke traditional <city u8:st='on'></city><place u8:st='on'></place>Boston: brick-lined warrens, black-shuttered Federal-style rowhouses, and wrought-iron gas-lit lamps. Louisa May Alcott, John Hancock, and Ted Kennedy called 'the Hill' home. Michael Crichton, Carly Simon, and Uma Thurman have also resided here. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The ribbon of green known as the Rose Kennedy Greenway literally emerged from under a shadow. An elevated highway once hovered over this very space. The highway was diverted underground as part of the 'Big Dig,' a 15-year-long construction project.

"Boston: Boutiques, Bridges, Baseball, And Beans","Boston may be old and historic and Brahmin-fussy, but with half a million students infused into the mix each year, it has to stay young. So, our boutiques are trendy, our Red Sox and Fenway Park are the best in sports, our theater district now has dorms above a stage, and there's ballet in the old opera house.

Branson: Magic In The Midwest,"<p>Branson, Missouri: some call it Little Vegas, but everyone calls it fun! Boating, fishing, camping, golfing, and horseback riding are here for the outdoor enthusiast. Magic shows, Chinese acrobats, dancers, outdoor theaters, and Vegas revues tempt the entertainment aficionados. And there are museums, inspirational shows, and amusement parks for everyone else! The bonus here? Tickets are easy to get and the prices are very reasonable. Welcome to Branson!</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Getting There & Getting Around</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Shows</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Special Attractions in Branson</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Something for Everyone!</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">When you first get into town, stop anywhere and get a coupon book. Branson does an excellent job of offering discounts on attractions. Also, ask at the ticket windows for discounts. Each venue seems to have a special offer. This can save you many dollars in a place that is already very reasonable.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Plan to drive. Branson is not pedestrian friendly. Theaters and attractions are spaced far apart, and the area is located in the hills of the Ozarks. While there are some trolleys, the best way to get from place to place is by car. Public transportation is very limited. Each venue has ample parking, but be prepared, many lots are on hills.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Get a map before you arrive. Download one or stop at any attraction and pick up a coupon book: most have colored maps. Avoid Route 76 during busy times; it gets congested easily. Learn about the 'color' routes that can take you anywhere quickly. Google Branson and you will find a number of helpful map sources. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The busiest time in Branson is not summer! The busiest time is from November 1 until December 31. You need to plan ahead for the special Christmas shows and attractions. Reservations for this time period should be considered at least a month or more in advance. Silver Dollar City is amazing during this time. Christmas in Branson is special.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Plan your attractions carefully. Most shows last two hours. Plan time to arrive and time to eat between shows. It is easy to do two shows a day. Most shows start at 10am, 2 or 3pm, and 7 or 8pm. It is difficult to see a 3:00 and 7:00 show on the same day.

Breathtaking Yosemite Valley,"<p>Yosemite National Park spans the eastern portions of Tuolumne, Mariposa, and Madera counties in east-central California, and across the western slopes of the Sierra Nevada mountain range. The entire Yosemite National Park covers an area of 761,266 acres, but this tour will survey only Yosemite Valley, which is by far the park's top attraction. Yosemite Valley stretches for seven miles in a roughly east-west direction, with an average width of about one mile. Within this sheer cliff valley are the highest waterfalls in North America, a host of visitor accommodations, plus a network of bicycle and hiking trails.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Crown Jewel of California</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Valley Overviews</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Curry Village</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Yosemite Village</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Ahwahnee</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Although Yosemite is centrally located in the High Sierra Nevada mountain range, including two peaks over 13,000 feet in elevation, the valley floor itself is cut so deep that it is only 4,000 feet above sea level. Nevertheless, Yosemite Valley is still a mountain destination and visitors should bring warm weather clothing no matter what time of year they visit.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Yosemite Valley has high and low tourism seasons, with the summer months being the most visited time of year. The park is visited by 3.5 million people each year, many of whom only spend time in the Yosemite Valley. In high season reservations are required for lodging and many activities.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Yosemite is one of the largest and least fragmented habitat blocks of wildlife in the Sierra Nevada, and the park supports a wide diversity of plants and animals. The possibility of a bear encounter is possible in the valley, especially when food is left in cars or out in the open. Take extra precaution not to leave food in cars or on the porch of your lodging, etc. It should go without saying that visitors should never feed any wild animals.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The entire Yosemite National Park is roughly the same size as the state of Rhode Island. Within Yosemite Valley and around the surrounding park there are thousands of lakes and ponds, and about 1,600 miles of streams. With so much terrain to explore it is advisable to spend at least a week here if possible. Yosemite will not disappoint.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Yosemite is a world-class rock climbing destination. The massive 'big walls' of sheer granite have been ascended countless times since the 1950s. In the past it took climbers several days to climb the monoliths, sleeping overnight on the rock faces, but modern climbing techniques have allowed ascents to be made in mere hours. It is essential that any new climber takes a class to learn the techniques and become acquainted with the equipment.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00047e05a4aac68cffe7f&ll=37.743707,-119.584165&spn=0.019581,0.045447&z=15&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00047e05a4aac68cffe7f&ll=37.743707,-119.584165&spn=0.019581,0.045447&z=15&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Breathtaking Yosemite Valley Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",BO010246,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/breathtaking_yosemite_valley_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0050ZKVVI,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940014429931,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Crown Jewel of California"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Valley Overviews"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Curry Village"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Yosemite Village"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""The Ahwahnee"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]}]}",

Brunei: The Last Malay Kingdom,"
<p>The small country of Brunei is located in steamy Southeast Asia on the northern coast of Borneo, the third largest island in the world. The South China Sea makes up the northern coastline. By land, Brunei is completely bordered by the Malaysian state of Sarawak. The Indonesian state of Kalimantan encompasses the southern two thirds of Borneo. The sovereign nation of Brunei is a land of resplendent mosques and lush rainforests. It boasts a high standard of living, bolstered by the good fortune of having abundant petroleum deposits. There are five major regions of Brunei and we will visit them all in this comprehensive tour inside the last of the grand Malay kingdoms. </p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Sultan & His Brunei</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Bandar Seri Begawan</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Jerudong</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Tutong</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Seria</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Temburong</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The most celebrated time of the year for Brunei citizens is at the end of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, or <i>Hari-raya</i>. The end of Ramadan is also the time when the sultan and the royal family open their private residence to all Brunei citizens. The sultan himself shakes hands with everyone, without gloves on, welcoming guests with his utmost respect. The 29<sup>th</sup> Sultan, Hassanal Bolkiah, his family, and their attendants greet all subjects as they enter the massive complex of 1788 rooms, the largest residential palace in the world. Be sure to plan your visit with Ramadan in mind, as hotel vacancies in Bandar Seri Begawan will be limited.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Alcohol is not sold in Brunei, but individual foreign visitors may bring through customs a 12-pack of beer, along with two bottles of spirits. A separate customs form must be filled out at the point of entry declaring any alcoholic products. While drinking is not taboo, it is recommended for those who must imbibe do so behind closed doors, such as in a hotel room. Drinking in public is not allowed.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Brunei dollar (BND) has been the currency of the sultanate of Brunei since 1967. One dollar is divided into 100 cents, in the same division as the United States dollar (USD). The Brunei dollar is pegged together with the Singapore dollar (SGD) at a 1:1 ratio, mostly because Singapore is one of Brunei's major trading partners. To find the value of the Brunei dollar find a conversion for the Singapore dollar and compare the currency you will be converting. Basically, Brunei prices are a little less than the prices people would pay in Europe or the United States. The reward is virtually no crime and a well-developed infrastructure, especially by Southeast Asian standards.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The sultan of Brunei is the head of state and he maintains total executive authority, including the ability to issue emergency powers. He also has direct control of the military, energy, finance, and other key governmental offices. Thus, the Royal family retains a venerated status within the country. Press criticism of the government and monarchy is rare. Visitors to the country are considered guests and should not publicly be critical of the government or the monarchy.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Brunei is comparable in size to the U.S. state of Delaware, and is about 10 times the land area of Singapore. Although small, Brunei packs a punch and it is advisable to book a tour guide who can take you directly to all the sites. Most will provide English speaking drivers who know the best locations, contacts, and directions. I used Intrepid Tours and they offered excellent service. For those who seek a home stay in Brunei, which will be discussed, it is best to contact the owner direct. The prices per night are reasonable, about $50 BND, and meals are usually included. <br /></ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Brunei+International+Airport,+Brunei+Darussalam&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00048331de30dba77c5a6&ll=4.936356,114.941711&spn=0.823648,1.454315&z=10&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Brunei+International+Airport,+Brunei+Darussalam&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00048331de30dba77c5a6&ll=4.936356,114.941711&spn=0.823648,1.454315&z=10&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Brunei: The Last Malay Kingdom Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",BO010262,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/brunei_tour_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0051W9W1A,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940012419729,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""The Sultan & His Brunei"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Bandar Seri Begawan"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Jerudong"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Tutong"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Seria"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Temburong"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]}]}",

California Mission: La Purisima,"<p>La Purisima Mission is universally acclaimed as 'the most interesting of the 21 Spanish missions' created by the Franciscans 200+ years ago. You can visit a dozen buildings in the fully reconstructed mission... there are fountains, lavander &#237;as, an extensive water system, and the same livestock, poultry, and flora species found there in 1820. This is an ideal picnic stop on the trip between Los Angeles and San Francisco. If you are driving on the 101, take a 15-minute detour west on the old El Camino Real (246) to Lompoc. The mission is in a 1,860-acre state park filled with roaming deer and hiking trails.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Chapels</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Life in the Mission</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Command Center: The Heart of the Mission</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Blacksmith Shop, the Fields, & the Water System</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>

California's Point Reyes National Seashore,"<p>The Point Reyes National Seashore in Northern California's Marin County comprises over 100 square miles of open spaces and old-growth forests, as well as many miles of rocky headlands and abandoned beaches. Nature lovers delight over the varied and unspoiled terrain, located only one or two hours' drive from most Bay Area cities. The undeveloped coastline is a sanctuary for marine mammals and migratory birds. Pristine estuaries, freshwater lakes, waterfalls, saltwater marshes, windswept beaches, coastal scrub grasslands, geological wonders, plus virgin coniferous woodlands combine to create a wilderness haven for outdoor enthusiasts.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Solitude Near the City</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Point Reyes Lighthouse</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Drakes Bay & Estuary</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Point Tomales</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Olema & Beyond!</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The best way to access Point Reyes National Seashore is by private vehicle or rental car.

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">From the east and north it is possible to cross to Marin County on the 580 Richmond Bridge, or drive around San Pablo Bay on Highway 37, both connecting to the 101.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>

Canada's Calgary Stampede,"
<p>Calgary's Stampede is a 10-day world-class family festival. It starts with a lively parade and ends with an especially intense competition of bull and bronc riding aimed at a million dollars in prize money. Famed also for its Chuckwagon Races, it is known for its free daily pancake breakfasts, native Indian Village, and innumerable Midway rides. It includes international contests with miniature horses, dog herding, horseshoeing, and team cattle herding. Your kids will learn where milk and wool really come from. The Super Dogs, and famed country singers like Taylor Swift and Reba McIntyre, have delighted Stampede crowds. </p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Parade & Stampede Park Tour</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Tour Continues</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Rodeo</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Chucks, Wild Ponies, & the Show</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Other Places to Visit</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Make a list of your priorities from the Stampede's website but be flexible. Rain might affect events at places like Saddledome Lane, Plaza Stage, Coca-Cola Stage, and the Midway. Parts of the Grandstand and Indian Village are not sheltered. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you only have a few days, include the opening Stampede parade. If you are serious about rodeos, come for the final weekend to see the best riders and most active bulls and broncs. Book those tickets early. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">For cheaper Rodeo or Grandstand Show tickets, consider standing room. For free tickets to these shows, and free entry, seniors should go early on Seniors' Day. Kids and families also have free entry to the grounds on their days. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">From the parade route in City Centre to Stampede Park, it's a short ride by LRT train, taxi, or free horse-drawn wagon. The train operates 24 hours during Stampede time.<br /></ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Calgary Stampede website should answer all questions. Midway junkies should aim for the Stampede's Sneak-a-Peek, the evening before the parade.

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Take two days to cover the ground if you like to linger over exhibits and take it all in slowly, especially if you want to spend much time at the art gallery.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Remember the Australian sun is strong - use sunscreen, wear a hat, and take something to cover your shoulders. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Canberra can be cold; it's at the foot of the Snowy Mountains, Australia's premiere ski destination. Unless it's summer, take a jumper or jacket.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Working Canberra centers on the business of government and the diplomatic corps.

Carcassonne In The South Of France,"<p>Most people come to Carcassonne for the Castle, called the Cite, but the town's Bastide of Saint Louis is also a treasure chest of history that should not be overlooked. Located in Cathar Country in the south of France, Carcassonne makes an ideal base from which to explore the Languedoc-Roussillon region. Carcassonne has a rich history going back 2,500 years: many adorable squares, specialty boutiques, cozy cafes, bountiful markets, and the Canal du Midi wrapping around the city's perimeter, tempting visitors to take a riverboat ride. </p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Exploring Carcassonne, France</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Cite Medievale, Carcassonne's Castle</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Bastide of Sant Louis, Carcassonne, France</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Extra Day Trips and Tours Near Carcassonne</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Bring your walking shoes! Hiking up to the Cite is a steep trek--after all, the castle was built on top of a hill! Bring shoes meant for walking cobblestone streets and uneven pathways. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Watch the clock. The French eat lunch between 12 and 1 pm (give or take), and once it is over, it's over. You don't want to miss your midday meal so make sure to head for your nearest restaurant around noon.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Apartments versus hotels. If you plan to make Carcassonne your base for exploring the south of France, consider a short-term holiday apartment rental instead of a hotel. There are many charming apartments for rent by the week within Carcassonne's boundaries. Renting a country house outside of Carcassonne is also an excellent option if you have a car. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Closed at lunch. Many shops and sites are closed at lunch time, which can mean from 12 noon to 4pm. Plan accordingly having a long lunch by the Canal du Midi or read the paper over coffee on the Plaza. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Day tripping: Head to Toulouse or Narbonne for the day. These two larger cities offer another look into life in the south of France. Both are an easy drive from Carcassonne, or catch the train from Carcassonne's center to either destination. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&ie=UTF8&hq=Porte+Narbonnaise&hnear=&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00048162f0dcb816bd4b8&ll=43.210243,2.362018&spn=0.018267,0.043645&z=15&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&ie=UTF8&hq=Porte+Narbonnaise&hnear=&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00048162f0dcb816bd4b8&ll=43.210243,2.362018&spn=0.018267,0.043645&z=15&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Carcassonne In The South Of France Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",RW010263,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/carcassonne_tour_france_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005IIRBSS,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940013036819,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Exploring Carcassonne, France"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Cite Medievale, Carcassonne's Castle"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Bastide of Sant Louis, Carcassonne, France"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Extra Day Trips and Tours Near Carcassonne"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]}]}",
Cherry Blossoms & Washington D.C.'s Tidal Basin,"<p>Well known for Washington, D.C.'s spring explosion of cherry blossoms, the Tidal Basin offers history and beauty all year. With interesting architecture, historical displays, and relaxing areas to take in the stunning views, the Franklin Delano Roosevelt and Jefferson Memorials should not be missed. The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum explores a serious topic and encourages reflection on an event that is difficult to comprehend. Finally, a visit to the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, where millions of dollars are printed each day, inspires dreams of goodies to purchase or adventures to experience, with just a bit of that money. </p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Around the Tidal Basin</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Hints & Getting Around </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">North Side of Tidal Basin </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">FDR: Man & Memorial </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Pagoda & George Mason</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Jefferson Memorial</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Boats, Festivals, Museums </li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Although Washington, D.C. has a good public transportation system, walking is inevitable, so bring comfortable shoes. From the Capitol to the Lincoln Memorial, the National Mall is nearly two miles long. The walk around the Tidal Basin is a bit shorter. You can't see everything in one day, but it's a good bet you will do lots of walking. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">To see the sights and get some exercise, bring your bicycle or rent one; there are many rental companies in the city. Cycling along the National Mall and around the Tidal Basin is a popular, easy ride. Keep in mind that during cherry blossom season, Tidal Basin crowds make riding that route nearly impossible. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Washington, D.C. offers hundreds of free events and festivals every year. The Cherry Blossom Festival brings huge crowds to the Tidal Basin area, and hundreds of thousands of motorcycles rumble into town for Rolling Thunder. The Smithsonian Folk Life Festival introduces international culture to the National Mall, and you never know when you might catch a demonstration or political event. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">From the Holocaust Museum near the Tidal Basin to the National Gallery of Art and Smithsonian museums along the National Mall, there are dozens of memorable places with free admission. Pack a lunch, grab a bite from a street vendor, or eat light at a museum cafeteria, and you can enjoy one of America's great sightseeing bargains. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Depending on the season, the weather can offer everything from snow to blazing sun. When the heat is on, one of the cooler places to be is along the shaded waterfront walkways of the Tidal Basin. It's a great place to sit and relax, have a picnic, and watch the birds, boats, and people.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&g=Washington+DC&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Tidal+Basin,+Washington,+District+of+Columbia,+20024&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.000481943b128bbd33b11&ll=38.88659,-77.047849&spn=0.019508,0.043645&z=15&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&g=Washington+DC&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Tidal+Basin,+Washington,+District+of+Columbia,+20024&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.000481943b128bbd33b11&ll=38.88659,-77.047849&spn=0.019508,0.043645&z=15&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Cherry Blossoms & Washington D.C.'s Tidal Basin Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",MD060268,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/cherry_blossom_tour_washington_d.c._preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0054E7CMQ,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940012929464,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Around the Tidal Basin"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Hints & Getting Around "",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""North Side of Tidal Basin "",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""FDR: Man & Memorial "",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Pagoda & George Mason"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""The Jefferson Memorial"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Boats, Festivals, Museums "",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]}]}",

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Grant Park is not the largest park in Chicago - Lincoln Park holds that distinction - but at 319 acres in total size, it is not small either. Enhanced with four world-class museums, it is advisable to give yourself at least two full days to take in all the attractions.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Grant Park features several miles of walking trails including the popular Lake Shore Trail, a paved multi-use path running along Lake Michigan across the entire length of the park.

China's Great Wall: Walking On History,"
<p>Long known as one of the Seven Wonders of the World, this amazing engineering feat is an awesome sight to behold as it snakes its way across China. It is the world's longest outdoor museum, stretching from Jiayaguan in the west to Shanhaiguan on the eastern seaboard. The Chinese started building the Wall in the 6<sup>th</sup> century BC to defend themselves against invaders swooping down from the north. Today it is one of the most visited tourist attractions on earth: to walk on the Wall is to walk on history.</p> <div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">History of the Great Wall</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Preserving the Great Wall</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Badaling Section of the Great Wall</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Other Great Wall Sites</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Wall Ends at Shanhaiguan</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Learning a few basic words in Mandarin will earn you brownie points with the Chinese: hello (<i><u>nihao</u></i>), good bye (<i><u>zaijian</u></i>), please (<i><u>qing</u></i>) and thank you (<i><u>xiexie</u></i>). Knowing a few numbers also is helpful.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Comfortable walking/athletic shoes are a must for walking on the Wall for the average person. Visitors to the more rugged sites will probably want to wear sturdy hiking boots. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Hiring a taxi for the day is best if you want to visit the less accessible sites on the Great Wall or want to spend more time there than tours allow. If you rent, remember you also pay for the driver's meals and admission fees. For an authentic Chinese meal, have the driver order so you can get dishes that aren't on an English menu.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Carry an adequate supply of bottled water with you when you head out on China's Great Wall. At some sites, you may not meet anyone selling water.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Eating lunch at the Great Wall is a fun experience.

China's Hawaii: Hainan Island,"<p>Warm days and sultry nights are the norm on tropical Hainan Island located just off the tip of mainland China in the South China Sea. You'll find white sand beaches, fresh seafood and succulent tropical fruit, along with a distinct island culture. Numerous hot springs bubble up and tropical rain forests cover much of the island. Over a hundred different herbs for traditional Chinese medicine are grown here as well as green tea, coffee, and some rare orchids.

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The best time to visit is between November and March. The rainy season falls between May and October, but the resort of Sanya in the southernmost part of the island is usually warm and sunny year round. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you visit Monkey Island near Sanya, beware! These monkeys run free and they will bite. They seem to get particularly agitated over green bottles so leave your water bottle behind.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Santiago is essentially a commercial city; only in the past decade has it become an important tourist destination.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Most of the citizens, especially around El Centro, are business people and usually wear suits and ties. Avoid dressing as if you are on a mountain hike. No need for backpacks.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Even though the numbers of visitors from the US, Canada and Europe have increased tremendously in the past decade, it is still difficult to find English-speaking people on the street: taxi drivers, restaurant waiters, shop attendants, and police only speak Spanish.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>

Colonial Williamsburg: A Winter Visit,"Colonial Williamsburg is a reconstructed 18th-century village in the heart of Virginia's Historical Triangle. December is a particularly wonderful time to visit, with period decorations adorning every lintel and candles glowing from windows. Taverns invite guests in to enjoy 18th-century fare, seasoned with songs and games. Shops are bursting with reproduction goods, some of which are made right in the historical area. A stroll down the pedestrian Duke of Gloucester Street will send you back to colonial times, evoked through the sound of horses' hooves, the smell of woodsmoke, and insightful stories.<br /><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The East End</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Midtown</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Market Square & the Magazine</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Bruton Parish Church & the Restoration</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Governor's Palace</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you're interested in taking a carriage ride, tickets can be bought at Greenhow's Lumber Store. Just be sure to get there early in the day to ensure you get the vehicle you want!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>

Cruising With Disabilities,"A cruise is a wonderful way to relax and be pampered while visiting some of the world's most stunning ports of call. But many first-time cruisers with disabilities worry about accessibility. In this tour, an experienced cruise traveler will share tips and tricks designed to help you make the most of your cruise. From choosing a ship to exploring the ports of call, we will teach you to navigate the seemingly endless array of choices. Along the way, you will learn secrets to save money and maximize your enjoyment. Since this tour can be for any location, no map is included.<div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Booking a Cruise</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Embarkation</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Exploring the Ship</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Shipboard Life</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Ports / Disembarkation</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Contact your cruise line's Special Needs Department soon after booking your cruise. Representatives can arrange for specialized equipment in your stateroom, help you find an oxygen delivery service, or even help you plan for a restricted diet on board. Be sure to confirm your arrangements 48 hours before your sailing, and again when you check in at the pier.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you use a wheelchair or ECV on a cruise, be aware of special requirements for 'tender' ports. In these ports, instead of docking at the pier, the ship anchors at sea and lifeboats carry passengers to shore. Accessibility varies, so check with your cruise line in advance to learn the procedures.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you will be taking an Alaska cruise, consider purchasing the Great Alaskan TourSaver book, offering 2-for-1 deals on many popular excursions. A new book costs $100 and may save you thousands. Just search the internet for more information. If your plans take you elsewhere in the world, research your itinerary for other possible discounts.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Thoroughly research each port visit on your cruise well before you leave. Although the ship's Shore Excursion desk can provide general information, staff members are not experts in disabled travel. You will find most tours quite accessible if you call ahead to give tour operators time to prepare. This is also the best way to arrange the lowest price.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">On a cruise, standard gratuities are applied to your shipboard account. Tips are also included in the price of alcoholic beverages and sodas. However, some people like to tip a little extra for exceptional service. This is most commonly done on the last sea day, as disembarkation morning is hectic. No additional tips are required, however.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div>",LF010229,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/cruising_with_disabilities_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004I43SNA,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940012180094,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Introduction"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Booking a Cruise"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Embarkation"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Exploring the Ship"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Shipboard Life"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Ports \/ Disembarkation"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]}]}",
Cuandixia: China's Village That Time Forgot,"<p>Cuandixia was built more than 500 years ago as a resting place for weary travelers going through the mountains from Beijing to the west. It became prosperous by providing food to the Forbidden City, but the wealth diminished over the years. Once in danger of becoming a ghost town, the city is seeing new life as a tourist attraction. The remaining residents are opening their homes to give modern-day travelers a glimpse into the past. With old stone and brick buildings, Cuandixia is said to be the best-preserved ancient village in China.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Village That Time Forgot</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Walking Back in Time</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Touring the Village</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Getting There</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you hire a taxi for the day, you also pay for the driver's meals and admission fees. For an authentic Chinese meal, have the driver order because you'll likely get dishes that aren't on an English menu.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Cuandixia is a photographer's paradise. Take along extra memory cards for your digital camera. If you use a film camera, Kodak and Fuji films are readily available, though expensive. Lucky is an inexpensive Chinese film that produces satisfactory results. It calls for C-41 processing so you can have it developed at home.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Comfortable walking/athletic shoes are a must for climbing the steep steps. There are no handrails on the stairways, so bring a walking stick or cane if you think you might need extra support.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">No immunizations are required for China, but you might want to check with the U.S. Center for Disease Control or your local health department for recommendations, particularly if you suffer from a chronic disease, such as diabetes. Be current on tetanus and Hepatitis A vaccinations.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Don't bring white or light colored clothes unless you're planning on tossing them after one wearing. Clothes get stained incredibly fast here.

Cycling Two Of Virginias Best Railroad-converted Bike Trails,"Two of Virginia's best converted-railroad bike trails cross the history-steeped backlands in the southwest corner of the state. The Virginia Creeper Trail covers 34 mostly downhill miles from Whitetop through Damascus to Abingdon. The New River Trail is 57 miles long, from Galax or Fries to Pulaski. Both have shuttle services, are composed of asphalt or dirt, include scores of bridges or trestles, and open up otherwise inaccessible areas steeped in early musical history.

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Rain is your foe on bike trails, so make sure the paths are dry. If it rains while you cycle, wait until it stops, or cover up, go slowly, and ride it out - but walk the bridges.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you're new to cycling, the first half of the Creeper Trail is easy and fast - but bumpy. Good place to get your cycling legs.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you're in a group, tell the shuttle office when you reach Damascus and they may adjust the return hour for you in Abingdon.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The New River Trail has fewer eating and bike repair stops, so bring extra water and snacks. Others are helpful with repairs if you wait at the depots or where there are access parking lots.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Stop and read the information signs. They are well researched and written. The Shot Tower is worth a long break too.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Don't race on either trail.

There are cultural objects representing both Fiji's indigenous inhabitants and others that have settled in the island group over the past 100 years. The Museum is located within the unique Thurston Gardens. Open six days a week from 09:30 am to 4:30 pm, Monday to Saturday.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Nearly every visitor stays at a resort or guesthouse in Fiji. Each resort has its own schedule of activities that will vary from region to region. As expected, water sports are the most popular. Surfing, snorkeling, scuba diving, waterskiing, sailing, kayak tours, and fishing excursions can be arranged at any resort throughout Fiji. Land activities such as golf, biking, hiking and exploring pre-contact hill forts are also popular ways to spend the day.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00046a47930fab65f8e66&ll=-16.93596,179.104614&spn=2.805879,5.234985&z=8&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00046a47930fab65f8e66&ll=-16.93596,179.104614&spn=2.805879,5.234985&z=8&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Discover Fiji: A Paradise Never Lost Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",BO010123,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/discover_fiji_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0050VXPYW,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940012499844,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Introduction to the Fijian Archipelago"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Cradle of Fijian Civilization: Viti Levu"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Remote Island Delights"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Vanua Levu is for Adventure Lovers!"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Dateline Taveuni"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]}]}",

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Disney's Animal Kingdom is mostly an outdoor park. Central Florida weather can be brutally hot, so make sure you are prepared. Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing, drink plenty of water, and consider carrying a personal misting fan. Fans can be purchased at the park, but are much less expensive at your local drugstore.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Rain is common in Central Florida, especially during the summer months, but attractions close only when lightning is spotted within five miles. Bring a lightweight poncho and take advantage of significantly reduced crowds.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The majority of restaurants are counter-service. If you prefer table-service dining, make reservations well in advance. Table-service meals are an experience in themselves, so plan to spend an hour and a half or more enjoying a leisurely break.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Don't over-plan your day. Most of the best experiences are spontaneous, from watching tigers swim to enjoying an African drumming group. Make sure you allow enough time to enjoy unplanned adventures.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The animals are most active early in the morning and late in the afternoon. Plan to see shows or go on rides during the hot afternoon, when most animals are resting in the shade.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><br /></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00046ac2765a2513e2505&ll=28.389588,-81.590652&spn=0.161286,0.327187&z=12&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00046ac2765a2513e2505&ll=28.389588,-81.590652&spn=0.161286,0.327187&z=12&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Disney's Animal Kingdom For Adults Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",LF010161,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/disney_animal_kingdom_adult_tour_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004I6D4X2,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940012386410,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Introduction"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Arriving"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Oasis\/Discovery\/Camp M-M"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Africa \/ Rafiki's"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Asia"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Dinoland U.S.A."",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]}]}",

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you have a problem walking a mile, take MARTA (Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority) to the capitol. There is a station next door to CNN; get off at Georgia State Station two blocks from the capitol. Across the street from the capitol is an inexpensive place to eat that is frequented by local politicians, Capitol Commons Cafe.<br /></ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you do plan on riding MARTA, you may consider purchasing a Breeze Card, available at all stations. It allows you unlimited system-wide traveling on MARTA. Check the website for details.<br /></ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Georgia State Capitol is open 8-5, Monday through Friday, closed on weekends and holidays. Try to utilize the free guided tours given Mon-Fri at 10am, 11am, and 1pm. If you cannot arrange your visit for this time, brochures are always available at the Capitol Tour Desk.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you need directions or have any problem, look for a member of the Ambassador Force; they provide emergency assistance. Dressed in pith helmets, they travel on foot, on Segways, or on all-terrain bikes. They also staff the Atlanta visitor's booth at the corner of Peachtree Street and Andrew Young International Boulevard, and offer maps and other important information for visitors.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Lots of fast food restaurants surround Centennial Olympic Park. You can pick up food there or at a grocery on your way downtown and have a picnic in the park. That's much cheaper than eating at a traditional restaurant.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.000481632d484ec0513d1&ll=33.750428,-84.391522&spn=0.020839,0.059996&z=14&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.000481632d484ec0513d1&ll=33.750428,-84.391522&spn=0.020839,0.059996&z=14&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Doing Downtown Atlanta Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",KW090264,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/downtown_atlanta_georgia_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0091MBOZ8,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940015210590,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Introduction"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Wonderful World of Coke"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Imagine It!

"Driving Main Park Road, Everglades National Park","Visitors come from around the world to experience Everglades National Park, the world's only Everglades; a dynamic ecosystem fed by a sheet flow of rainfall creeping slowly southward across expansive sawgrass prairies. Most tourists are here to see wildlife - and that's virtually guaranteed if they get at least 3 miles into the park, to Royal Palm Hammock. But a drive down the 38-mile Main Park Road, which dead-ends near the southernmost point of Florida's peninsula, provides an overview of the best the Everglades has to offer - even if you never get out of your car.<br /><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Ernest Coe Visitor Center</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Royal Palm Hammock</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Long Pine Key</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The River of Grass </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Mangrove Fringe</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">End of the Road</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">No gasoline is available on this 76-mile round trip, nor is there a gas station within 10 miles of the park gate. Be sure to top off your tank in Florida City before heading down to the park. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">While winter is the best season to visit Everglades National Park to avoid voracious mosquitoes, every season has its delights. You'll see nesting birds in their finery in late spring and colorful wildflowers in summer.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Along this 38-mile drive, the only restrooms are at the Ernest Coe Visitor Center, Royal Palm Hammock, the Long Pine Key campground, West Lake, and Flamingo. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">When you step out of your car, some wilderness savvy is in order. Protect yourself with a hat, sunscreen, and insect repellent. Wear long pants and a long-sleeved lightweight shirt. If you're headed out on a natural footpath, carry a hiking stick for balance and safety. Never, ever, get close to an alligator, whether out of curiosity or to take a photo.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">No meals are available within the park, save zap-and-go microwave food and ice cream at the marina store in Flamingo.

Dublin's Guinness Storehouse And Kilmainham Gaol,"<p>Not every Dublin day needs to end with a nightcap - some days can start with one! Begin your morning right at Guinness Storehouse where you'll be treated to a complimentary pint on the top floor. Mostly, though, it's getting to the top that counts, and you'll see much en route while exploring the seven-story building and all it has to offer. Later, visit Kilmainham Gaol, the prison location for the 1993 film 'In the Name of the Father,' to learn more about Ireland's political history. Just remember, if you're asked to participate in the Kilmainham Tangle, always say 'no.'</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Storehouse & Brewing Process</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Exhibitions & Gravity Bar</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Kilmainham Gaol Prisoners</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Prison Reform at the Gaol</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Bring your ID card. Both Guinness Storehouse and Kilmainham Gaol in Dublin offer lower rates for students, seniors and children. You can get an additional discount for Guinness Storehouse by purchasing tickets ahead of time online.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">It can be a long wait at the gates of the Storehouse, but there's a trick to getting in quickly. To bypass the line at the door, plan on either using your credit card to purchase your tickets or to prepay online. Machines, offset to the left of the admission line, will print your tickets to expedite the process. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Many tourist maps are hard to navigate, and maps of Dublin often neglect to include tourists sights located on the outskirts of the town. For an all-inclusive map of Dublin, (it even includes street names!), ask the bartender at the Gravity Bar of the Guinness Storehouse. The map you will receive is a gem for the Dublin tourist. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Kilmainham Gaol attracts long lines on the weekends and during tourist season. Dublin Pass holders have free priority access to over 30 Dublin attractions. The passes are pricey, but you only pay for the days you will stay and the sites you will visit.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Be sure to set aside some time to explore Kilmainham Gaol's Museum. It's free! The two-story museum is full of interactive informational exhibits.

Epcot For Families,"<p>Walt Disney World's Epcot is a unique theme park with a long history. The final incarnation of Walt's vision for a utopian model city, Epcot remains a showcase for world harmony and exciting new technology. In this tour, a former Cast Member (Disney-speak for employee) will serve as your personal guide, helping you navigate the park like a pro. You will visit world-class attractions and exciting theatrical presentations that are carefully designed to engage all members of the family, regardless of age. Along the way, you will learn a great deal about the history of this unique family destination. This tour is cross-generational: to focus on young children, try the 'Kids' Trip to Disney's Epcot.'</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Arriving / FW East</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">World Showcase East</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">World Showcase West</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Future World West</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Epcot After Dark</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you visit Epcot on a night that the Magic Kingdom stays open later, consider taking the monorail round trip after Epcot closes. The tracks run through Future World, and the view is truly breathtaking late at night after most guests have departed.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Small children may become bored or restless during some of Epcot's longer attractions. Keep their interest by visiting the many 'Kidcot' stations throughout the park. These areas offer special cultural activities for younger children.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Engage all members of the family in planning your trip to Epcot. Feeling responsible for certain decisions, such as where to eat or when to visit certain attractions, gives them a sense of ownership. This can also help to avoid meltdowns, as everyone knows what to expect.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Many families find that table-service dining in Epcot's countries completes their experience. Reservations are strongly suggested, particularly during busier seasons. Lunch prices are significantly lower than dinner, though the menus are similar. To beat the crowds, dine at off times.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">A number of guidebooks recommend taking a midday hotel break. Rather than spend your time commuting, however, why not find a place to relax inside the park instead? Join other guests napping on a well-manicured lawn; plan a long, late lunch break, or enjoy a picnic in the shade.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00046ac26abc0949d6018&ll=28.379923,-81.547565&spn=0.08065,0.163593&z=13&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00046ac26abc0949d6018&ll=28.379923,-81.547565&spn=0.08065,0.163593&z=13&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Epcot For Families Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",LF010156,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/epcot_tour_for_families_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004GNFU4S,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940012675972,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Introduction"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Arriving \/ FW East"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""World Showcase East"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""World Showcase West"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Future World West"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Epcot After Dark"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]}]}",
Essence Of Easter Island,"<p>Easter Island has intrigued and mystified scientists for centuries and tourists for decades. With over 800 Moai statues either standing erect, lying, or partially finished, Rapa Nui emits a mystique unmatched by any other Island. Located 2200 miles from Chile and 2500 miles from Tahiti, it is the most remote inhabited island in the world. At 64 square miles and shaped like a triangle, it packs a lot of mystery and adventure into one small place.

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Bring a flashlight with you if you plan on being out after dark. Street lights are few and far between.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The local dogs are friendly and may follow you even if you don't give them food. They like to fight each other but seem harmless to the tourists, but I wouldn't pet them.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Many shops and stores in the village are closed between 12 and 3 in the afternoon for siesta. Plan your time accordingly.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Car and motorcycle rentals are numerous just be careful driving because you cannot obtain insurance.

Exploring Albuquerque's Old Town And Beach,"<p>A walk through Old Town Albuquerque evokes a special brand of New Mexican enchantment. You'll find adobe buildings as old as the city itself, modern museums for science and art, and shops filled with uniquely New Mexican arts, crafts, and gifts. Its nooks and crannies and crooked little lanes will make you wish you lived here. If you have kids in tow, there's a science center just for them, as well as plenty to explore outdoors at the Albuquerque BioPark. It's an outing for the curious, for the romantic, for the hungry, and for the adventurous. Expect to be enchanted!</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Albuquerque's Old Town</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">History & Museums</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Plaza & the Church</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Nooks & Crannies</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">To the BioPark!</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Albuquerque's International Balloon Fiesta is held the first week in October. The weather is usually perfect that time of year and there's no better way to bookend your trip to Old Town than to spend the early morning at the mass ascension at the Balloon Park (take the train) and return there in the evening for the balloon glow.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">With the addition of Rail Runner train service from Santa Fe in the north to Belen in the south, Albuquerque's Old Town is super-easy to reach without worrying about parking. Just get off the train at the main Albuquerque station and use your train ticket to catch the Redline Rapid Ride bus headed for Rio Grande Boulevard.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Always carry a bottle of water - and drink it! Albuquerque is in the desert Southwest and humidity is often in the single digits. You can dehydrate quickly without realizing it, so avoid dehydration headaches by drinking plenty of fluids.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Consider wearing sunglasses, a hat, and sunscreen, even if it is wintertime. Albuquerque's elevation at 5,312 feet and its low humidity add up to some serious ultra-violet rays year-round. Protect yourself from them.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you have access to a car during your stay, you might consider a longer cruise down Route 66. Albuquerque's Central Avenue runs along the route and many of the old motels and landmarks still exist. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.000485279cba6e9f733f0&z=16&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.000485279cba6e9f733f0&z=16&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Exploring Albuquerque's Old Town And Beach Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",RH040271,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/albuquerques_old_town_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00AI21CMU,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940015826388,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Albuquerque's Old Town"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""History & Museums"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""The Plaza & the Church"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Nooks & Crannies"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""To the BioPark!"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]}]}",
Exploring Downtown Manhattan: The Heart Of New York,"
<p>Located on the Southern tip of Manhattan Island, Downtown Manhattan -- also known as the Financial District -- is a compact area of wall-to-wall landmarks that stimulate the senses and allow the traveler to be a part of living, breathing history. </p> 
<p>Tourists are drawn to this area as it's the home of Wall Street, the iconic Charging Bull, the former World Trade Center site of 'Ground Zero', and areas such
as Battery Park and the South Street Seaport that offer breathtaking views of
the Statue of Liberty, Brooklyn Bridge and Downtown Manhattan skyline. </p> 
<p>This tour will cover the New York of old and new, from the exact point where the last
British troops retreated during the Revolutionary War, to the areas affected by
the events of September 11th, the 2008 financial crisis and Hurricane Sandy. This
world-renown locale is constantly changing, evolving and making international headlines.
After you complete this tour, this area and its history will become a part of
your own story.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction - Welcome to Downtown Manhattan</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Battery Park: The Beginning of New York</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Wall Street: New York's Financial Empire</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Ground Zero: Tragedy and Rebirth</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">St. Paul's Chapel and City Hall: Prayer, Power and Pageantry</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Fulton Street and the South Street Seaport: The Heartbeat of New York</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Financial District's streets are quite narrow, reflecting the original architecture of the colonial period. As a result, most streets are one-way, crowded and difficult to drive through. The best way to navigate the area is on foot, though taxis can easily be found on the main thoroughfares such as Broadway, Water Street and Church Street.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Should you choose to drive, street parking is limited but there are an abundance of parking lots in the area. Rates generally range from $8.00 per half hour to $50.00 for overnight parking.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Financial District is accessible on foot from Midtown Manhattan via Broadway, and the 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 9, A, C, E, J, M, N, R and Z trains also stop throughout the area. From New Jersey, the PATH train stops at the World Trade Center, and from Staten Island, the Staten Island Ferry stops at the southernmost tip of Manhattan, South Ferry, which is adjacent to Battery Park. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Many local restaurants that cater to the working crowd in the Financial District are closed on weekends. Restaurants on Broadway, Fulton Street and the South Street Seaport, however, are open and
operating on weekends with an abundance of food options at a wide range of prices.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Financial District is a busy and robust area Monday through Friday. This is the best time to visit if you want to experience the authentic hustle and bustle of life on Wall Street. For a more serene experience, weekends and holidays are considerably less crowded, with the primary visitors consisting of fellow tourists.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><img src=""http://uratrip.com/img/tour_files/976.downtownmanhattanmap.jpg"" alt=""Walking Tour Map"">",GW040215,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/exploring_downtown_new_york_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00BV8NB74,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940016242095,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Introduction - Welcome to Downtown Manhattan"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Battery Park: The Beginning of New York"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Wall Street: New York's Financial Empire"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Ground Zero: Tragedy and Rebirth"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""St. Paul's Chapel and City Hall: Prayer, Power and Pageantry"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Fulton Street and the South Street Seaport: The Heartbeat of New York"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]}]}",
Exploring The British Virgin Islands By Sailboat," 
<p>The British Virgin Islands in the eastern Caribbean Sea are a sailor's paradise! Enthusiasts from around the world arrive in the BVIs to hoist their sails in the consistently steady trade winds. Voyage with us from Tortola island to Jost Van Dyke, named after a famous Dutch mariner. Next we go to Anegada, the only all-coral atoll in the BVIs. Back into the Sir Francis Drake Channel, we navigate to Virgin Gorda, the second largest island in the archipelago. Also in the channel is Norman Island, the inspiration for Robert Louis Stevenson's classic pirate tale 'Treasure Island.' And Salt Island is great for a shipwreck dive on the R.M.S. Rhone. So come aboard for the adventure!</p> <div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Road Town to Soper's Hole: A Primer for a Sailing Adventure!</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Get in Touch with Your Inner Pirate on Jost Van Dyke Island</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Journey to the Sunken Island of Anegada </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Virgin Gorda is for Nature Lovers!</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Surrender the Booty on Norman & Salt Islands</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Although only a stone's throw away from the United States Virgin Islands (USVI), the British Virgin Islands (BVI) are a separate country and a valid passport is required for entry. No advance visa is necessary, all are stamped free upon entry, but there is an airport departure tax. Most visitors arrive in the BVI by air. The main airport is on Beef Island, connected to Tortola by a short bridge.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The currency is the US dollar. Nearly everything needs to be imported here, so the prices are higher than the mainland. Although English is the official and spoken language, sometimes the Caribbean accent is rather thick and can be hard to understand. This is one of the most affluent countries in the Caribbean... the people are very friendly and eager to show off their proud culture.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The main harbors for renting a boat are Road Town and Sopers Hole, both on Tortola. You can get a private charter, or you can hire a crew to perform all the sailing duties and even cook your meals. Some of the best beaches, dive sites, and Caribbean bars are only accessible by boat. Knowledge of boating is required for private or 'bareboat' charters.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">A basic understanding of raising the sails, motoring with the engine, avoiding hazards, and dropping anchor or pulling up a buoy is required. Each afternoon it will be necessary to catch a floating ball with a rope that needs to be tied off on the bow of the ship. There is usually a nominal fee for using a ball, but it is safer that dropping an anchor in the shifting bottom.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>

Family Fun In Las Vegas,"No other city in the United States has the instant recognition of glitzy Las Vegas, Nevada. Unique for its almost exclusive reliance on the casino entertainment industry, Las Vegas is a city constantly redefining itself as developers try to out-dazzle their competitors. The result is a mishmash of towering casino-hotels and blazing bright signs. Some of the shows, as well as some of the drinking establishments, are one-of-a-kind. However, if we look beyond downtown and the Strip we will find Las Vegas is situated in a beautiful desert environment where family fun and outdoor adventure abounds. <div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Red Rock Canyon</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Hoover Dam</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Downtown Attractions</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Strip </li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Although Las Vegas is commonly referred to as 'Sin City,' many of the adult exotic clubs are neatly tucked away from the Strip, unlike legalized gambling which is always in full view. Don't be tricked into thinking Vegas is just Sin City; it resides in an enchanting high desert environment. Make sure to visit Red Rock Canyon and the Hoover Dam. Both have excellent visitor centers to accommodate tourism.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">It has been said that the only difference between Wall Street and Las Vegas is 'a matter of interior decoration.' If you plan to gamble in Las Vegas remember the House <em>always </em>has the advantage. After all, that's how those massive casinos are built. If you choose to gamble, just do it for the entertainment value, never to increase your net worth.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Red Rock Visitor Center is open 8am - 4:30pm every day. There is a nominal car day-use fee to enter, which also includes access to the 13-mile Scenic Drive. The entrance to both are located just off State Route 159, or Charleston Boulevard, about 20 miles due west of the city. Check the canyon website or call the Red Rock Visitor Center for more information.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">In the wake of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, there is a significant security presence concerning the vehicular crossing of Hoover Dam. Because of the attack, the Hoover Dam Bypass project was expedited. Truck traffic across the dam is presently restricted. All motorists are briefly stopped and checked, while some types of vehicles are inspected prior to crossing the dam. Semi-trailer trucks, buses carrying luggage, and enclosed-box trucks over 40 feet long are not allowed to cross the dam at all. Private cars and pedestrians are allowed to do so.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.0004799b4556f360ebf3f&ll=36.142865,-115.046768&spn=0.413656,0.971603&z=10&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.0004799b4556f360ebf3f&ll=36.142865,-115.046768&spn=0.413656,0.971603&z=10&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Family Fun In Las Vegas Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",BO010257,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/las_vegas_family_fun_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0086XGDOU,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940014355346,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Introduction "",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Red Rock Canyon"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Hoover Dam"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Downtown Attractions"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""The Strip "",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]}]}",

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Sharing meals is a great way for families to economize. Portions are huge throughout the Magic Kingdom restaurants, and even adults with smaller appetites often find that a single appetizer and entr&#233;e are plenty for two.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">This is a great place for increasingly independent kids to spread their wings. Children as young as seven are permitted to ride alone, so if your kids are trustworthy, allow them to sit in their own ride seat or even take a spin without you.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Although many guidebooks recommend a midday hotel break, commuting takes a great deal of time. Instead, consider a long, leisurely meal or even a short nap on a well-manicured lawn.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Involve everyone in the family while planning your trip. Making age-appropriate decisions such as where to eat lunch or which park to visit on a given day helps everyone feel ownership of the trip. Be sure to coordinate your plans in advance though, to avoid confusion.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If your group is large, consider spending part of your time splitting off in various configurations.

Far Out Wineries Of Paso Robles,"<p style='margin-bottom: 6pt;' >Paso Robles on the Central Coast of California is considered the fastest growing American Viticulture Area in the state. With more than 180 wineries it now rivals the northern wine regions of Napa and Sonoma.

Specializing in Rhone varietals, winemakers here have found the hidden secret is in the calcareous soil. Visitors will thrill to the variety in the tasting rooms, delight to a stay in unusual bed and breakfasts, and enjoy exploring the historical and natural wonders of the region.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Wine Tasting & Touring</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">First Day Wine Touring</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">A Guided Wine Tour</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">A Little Off the Wine Path</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Seeing the Sights & Wine, Wine, Wine</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>

Ferry To Australia's Manly: Day Trip,"<p>Take the traditional ferry trip from Sydney to historic Manly, past the Harbour Bridge and Opera House, and travel close to the Heads. Upon arrival, enjoy the harbor and beaches, or the delightful Manly Art Gallery. If you pre-book, you can dive with the sharks at Oceanworld! Shop, eat, and drink on Manly Wharf, or the Corso pedestrian precinct, which boasts three pubs. Go up to North Head for the spectacular views and visit the old Quarantine Station with its well-presented museum. At North Fort you can tour the spooky tunnels where ammunition was stored during WWII. There's a lot on this trip to interest both kids and adults!</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Surf, Sun, & History on the Ferry Trip </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Crossing Sydney Harbour</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Family Fun & a Bit of Culture</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Cove, the Village, & the Ocean</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">North Head: Migrants, Guns, & Views</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Heading for Home</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Don't forget the sunscreen! Plus 15 or higher... the sun can be very hot and unforgiving in Australia. A broad brimmed hat is useful; buy a genuine Akubra as a great souvenir.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If your kids are old enough, drop them off at the Waterworks waterslides (open Australian School Holidays and weekends from September to April) while you browse the Manly Art Gallery and Museum next door.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Try and avoid catching the Manly ferry in Australia during commuter peak hours (before 9 am, and 5 pm to 6 pm).</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you're exploring the grounds of St. Pat's, please remember it's a private college campus. Stick to the paths and come and go by the main gate.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you like wheat beer, the place to get it on tap is the Bavarian Bier Cafe on the Wharf. Naturally, in Australia it's a German import. Elsewhere, for a crisp light local beer, try Pure Blonde - yes, the advertising covers all the jokes! Or choose a glass of Barossa or Hunter Valley wine.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00046140e51a97344d642&ll=-33.474981,151.254272&spn=1.250871,2.296143&z=9&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00046140e51a97344d642&ll=-33.474981,151.254272&spn=1.250871,2.296143&z=9&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Ferry To Australia's Manly: Day Trip Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",AC010080,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/historic_manly_near_sidney_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005HY6SN2,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940013111783,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Surf, Sun, & History on the Ferry Trip "",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Crossing Sydney Harbour"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Family Fun & a Bit of Culture"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""The Cove, the Village, & the Ocean"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""North Head: Migrants, Guns, & Views"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Heading for Home"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]}]}",
Florianopolis: Brazil's Paradise Island,"<p>When most people think of a Brazilian vacation, Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo are the two best-known destinations. But there is a holiday gem that has yet to be discovered by tourists outside of South America: Florianopolis. With over 100 white sandy beaches - large and small - this island is renowned for sunshine, water sports, delicious seafood, sizzling nightlife, and warm hospitality. The island is small, with one central town and tiny villages throughout the countryside and along the ocean shores. It is easy to travel around this paradise by car or public transportation.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Island in the Sun</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Centro - the Heart</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Southern Beaches</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">From West to East</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Ocean Delights</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Salty or Fresh?</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Money exchange: Shops, bars and restaurants will either take the Brazilian currency - the Real - or credit cards (especially Visa and MasterCard). You can also look for major bank ATM machines that work with flags, such as Cirrus or Plus.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Tipping: It's not common to leave tips, except for the hotel bellboy (R$ 2 ~ 5) and tour guides (R$ 10 ~20). Restaurants and bars will normally add a 10% service charge to the bill and only a small tip is expected for good service.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Transportation: Florian&#243;polis has a reasonably efficient public transportation system. The easiest way to move around for short trips is by taxi. Car rentals are inexpensive and provide the best way to travel around the island.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>

Florida's Sparkling Clearwater Beach,"<p>Like magic words, say Clearwater Beach three times and feel your distracted mind drift away with the gentle waves lapping at the shore. But Clearwater Beach sparkles with activity too. Looking for deep-sea fishing? Parasailing? Dolphin sighting? Wave-riding? Surfing? Bird watching? You can do it all. Got kids? Challenge them to attack the giant inflatable sea monster slides at Pier 60. Oh! Did I mention the nightly Sunset Festival at Pier 60? Heck, you can even let the family dog run loose at the Sand Key dog romp. This tour covers everything, so you'll get the most out of your Clearwater Beach vacation! </p><!--EndFragment--><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Memorial Causeway</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Secluded North Clearwater Beach</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Party at Pier 60</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Action at Clearwater Municipal Marina</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">South Clearwater Beach</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Nature Preserve at Sand Key</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Clearwater Beach is famous for miles of pure white sugar sand. That warm sun may feel good while you are at the beach, but a sunburn can ruin your vacation. To prevent this apply SPF 30+ sunscreen early and often, especially to your face, nose, ears, and shoulders. Tell the kids it's what all the pirates use! </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Use lip balm containing SPF of 15 or more. Wear sunglasses with UV protection, a wide-brimmed hat, and flip-flops. Bring a shirt and cover-up for your baby. Bring a beach blanket, towels, and folding chairs. Load up a cooler with drinks. You can rent cabanas at the Lifeguard Station on Pier 60. Or bring your own beach umbrella.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Don't forget to bring the fun stuff too - inflatable toys, skim boards, sand pails, and shovels. Remember to take lots of pictures to keep these precious family vacation memories! And remember, a little sand or water can do a lot of damage to mobile phones and cameras. Store these in plastic resealable bags while you are on the beach.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Clearwater Beach is friendly for people with disabilities. The city provides free surf wheelchairs at the Life Guard Station on Pier 60 and at Sand Key Park. The surf wheelchairs are easier to use on the sand and float in the water.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Visit 'Winter' and her sea-creature friends at the Clearwater Marine Aquarium near Clearwater Beach. 'Dolphin Tale,' a major motion picture about Winter's amazing rescue and inspiring life, was released in 2011. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&ie=UTF8&hq=Memorial+Causeway,&hnear=Florida&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.000491595470708ff371f&ll=27.967455,-82.820392&spn=0.026911,0.06506&z=14&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&ie=UTF8&hq=Memorial+Causeway,&hnear=Florida&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.000491595470708ff371f&ll=27.967455,-82.820392&spn=0.026911,0.06506&z=14&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Florida's Sparkling Clearwater Beach Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",KP100291,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/floridas_clearwater_beach_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0073BJGWM,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940014074049,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Introduction"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Memorial Causeway"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Secluded North Clearwater Beach"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Party at Pier 60"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Action at Clearwater Municipal Marina"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""South Clearwater Beach"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Nature Preserve at Sand Key"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]}]}",
Fort Lauderdale: More Than Spring Break!,"
<p>Situated in the heart of Florida's Gold Coast, Fort Lauderdale presents a wealth of diverse activities - and you don't have to be wealthy to enjoy them! Relax on the beach and work on an envy-producing tan... savor the perfect empanada or dine al fresco at a historic landmark. Buy a beach wrap or a unique piece of artwork... join locals dancing to jazz in the park under the glorious South Florida sky. Be a kid again at a hands-on museum, and learn how in little more than a century this area was completely transformed. The question becomes: What to do this time, and what to leave for next?</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Fort Lauderdale: More than Spring Break!</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Arrival & the Beach</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Along the Intracoastal Waterway</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Las Olas Boulevard</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Las Olas Riverfront</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Arts & Entertainment District</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The wet season in South Florida is from June through November. During these months, afternoon storms - often heavy ones - are common. If you visit during these months, plan outdoor activities for earlier in the day.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">From 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM on the first Sunday of every month, you can enjoy free music from top local artists during 'Jazz Brunch in the Park' at Himmarshee and 5<sup>th</sup>Avenue, across from the Museum of Discovery and Science in Ft. Lauderdale's Arts District. Locals arrive early to grab the best spots to stretch out and unload their coolers. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Consider carefully before renting a car. If you plan to stay within the areas covered in this tour, you'll do better using taxis (land and water,) the free shuttles, and your feet. Construction, congestion, and special events can make driving and parking challenging at times.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Getting your bearings, however, is easy. The ocean is east. Avenues run north/south (with Andrews Avenue dividing 'east' from 'west',) while streets run east/west. Do note though that most major streets and avenues have 2 - sometimes even 3 - names. The street you are looking for may have an alias! (2<sup>nd</sup> Street, for example, becomes Himmarshee as you head west.)</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Put yourself on the Walk of Fame! You may never have your footprints outside of Grauman's Chinese Theatre, but you can buy a brick with your name or another's on it, to be placed on the brick walk fronting the New River. Your tax-deductible donation benefits the Riverwalk Trust. Immortalize your trip; buy a brick!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00046156cb415a0126a72&ll=26.177008,-80.137367&spn=0.168228,0.287018&z=12&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00046156cb415a0126a72&ll=26.177008,-80.137367&spn=0.168228,0.287018&z=12&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Fort Lauderdale: More Than Spring Break!

Four Fun Hikes In The Smokies,"As the nation's most visited national park, the Great Smoky Mountains can get busy in the high season. But with half a million acres of wilderness available, the best way to see the park (and escape the crowds) is to head into the woods on foot, enjoying everything from steep treks up mountain balds to easy walks to waterfalls.<br /><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Fun Hikes in the Smokies</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Mingo Falls Trail</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Rough Fork Trail</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Alum Cave Bluffs Trail</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Alum Cave Bluffs Trail Continues</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Rainbow Falls Trail</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Bring rain gear and dress in layers. Temperatures and weather can change quickly in the Smokies.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Make sure to have plenty of water and high-energy snacks available for your hike.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>

From London To Oxford On The Thames,"The Father Thames awaits you! There is no river on earth with more history. Of the millions of tourists coming to Britain every year, very few will go up the Thames by boat. Instead, they will be driving on the crowded roads we are going to miss. We shall see a wholly different side of the country and enjoy the adventure of boating, through a series of locks, from the capital city to the oldest university city in England.

Galveston: The Greatest Island Of Texas,"<p>Galveston, a Gulf Coast island playground in Texas, was founded by a pirate and maintains an aura of romance and adventure through its predominantly Victorian architecture and myriad of fun activities. Besides splashing in the ocean, playing on the beaches, or taking boat tours, you can browse unique shops, visit fascinating museums and historic mansions, or go to a concert. The kids and their parents will love the Schlitterbahn water amusement park and Moody Gardens, home of a rainforest, an aquarium, an IMAX theater, and a 4-D show. You'll never run out of great things to do in Galveston!</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Galveston Overview </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Harbor</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Strand & Broadway Street</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Sea Wall </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The West End & Conclusion</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Parking is always a problem on Galveston Island, Texas. Once you find a spot, park and don't move your car! </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Traffic is rarely a problem unless you are on the Seawall or 61st Street (a major artery) at peak hours. The Seawall just takes patience, but for 61st, you can scoot across to 57th on Broadway and get to the same places in less time.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">For a fun diversion, catch the free ferry on the East End to Bolivar Peninsula. You can get a good look at the lighthouse and catch the next ferry back. You'll enjoy dolphin-spotting, feeding the seagulls from the back of the ferry, and a wonderful 20-minute boat ride!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you love beautiful old homes in the Queen-Anne style, take a driving or walking tour of Galveston's Silk Stocking Historic District bordered by 25th Street, 23rd Street, Avenue P., and Avenue K.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Come to Galveston the first weekend of December to enjoy 'Dickens on the Strand.' You'll feel that you have traveled back in time when you see everyone in Victorian costumes playing games, going to events, and eating foods such as they had in merry old England in the late 1800s. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00045b1201fb37cdef21c&ll=29.308031,-94.787078&spn=0.021368,0.044117&z=14&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00045b1201fb37cdef21c&ll=29.308031,-94.787078&spn=0.021368,0.044117&z=14&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Galveston: The Greatest Island Of Texas Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",LK010017,audio|cd|quietguide|video,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/galveston_the_greatest_island_of_texas_preview.pdf,http://www.youtube.com/embed/82FY-ltj8qg,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B006R6536M,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940013808805,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Galveston Overview "",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0017GalvIsl\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/GalvIsl1_Intro.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0017GalvIsl\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/GalvIsl1_Intro.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""The Harbor"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0017GalvIsl\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/GalvIsl2_Harbor.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0017GalvIsl\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/GalvIsl2_Harbor.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""The Strand & Broadway Street"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0017GalvIsl\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/GalvIsl3_Strand.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0017GalvIsl\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/GalvIsl3_Strand.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""The Sea Wall "",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0017GalvIsl\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/GalvIsl4_Seawall.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0017GalvIsl\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/GalvIsl4_Seawall.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""The West End & Conclusion"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0017GalvIsl\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/GalvIsl5_WstEnd.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0017GalvIsl\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/GalvIsl5_WstEnd.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]}]}",Galveston Overview :http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0017GalvIsl/mp3/GalvIsl1_Intro.mp3|The Harbor:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0017GalvIsl/mp3/GalvIsl2_Harbor.mp3|The Strand & Broadway Street:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0017GalvIsl/mp3/GalvIsl3_Strand.mp3|The Sea Wall :http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0017GalvIsl/mp3/GalvIsl4_Seawall.mp3|The West End & Conclusion:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0017GalvIsl/mp3/GalvIsl5_WstEnd.mp3|
Gateway To Yosemite,"
<p>The foothills of the central Sierra Nevada region feature well-preserved gold-rush-era towns, and consequently, movie history. We'll take a trip back in time in Columbia State Historic Park, Sonora, and Railtown 1897 State Historic Park in Jamestown. We'll drive to the funky town of Groveland on our way to Yosemite National Park, where we'll visit the giant sequoia trees and the Hetch Hetchy Reservoir nestled in the now-flooded 'Little Yosemite Valley.' Lastly, we'll discovered several 'locals only' waterfalls on the road into Yosemite. This is an excellent companion to the Yosemite Valley tour. </p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Gateway Into Yosemite</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Columbia Preserved</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Jamestown: Railtown</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Groovin' in Groveland</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">North Yosemite</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Waterfall Side Adventures</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>

Grand Canyon - Insider's Secrets For The Best Day Trip,"<p>Grand Canyon National Park attracts over 4.5 million visitors per year. People come from all parts of the world to stand on the rim and view the glory of the rock chasm below. However, visitors are frequently frustrated by the vast geography when attempting to experience the park in one day. This tour reveals insider secrets on how to plan a satisfying day trip to the Grand Canyon. You'll see more than the average visitor will by avoiding heavy crowds at peak times. Flagstaff travel writer Stacey Wittig knows the area and leads many visitors along this extraordinary, lesser-known route.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Intro to Perfect Day Trip</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Flagstaff to Navajo Rez</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Avoid Delays at East Entry</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Amazing Desert View Drive</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Canyon View Info Plaza</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Bright Angel Lodge/El Tovar </li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Make the most of your Grand Canyon Day Trip by pre-planning. Make dinner reservations at El Tovar. Gas your vehicle the night before. Avoid Arizona's dry heat by bringing refillable water bottles and packing sun hats for the entire family.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Teddy Roosevelt said that the Grand Canyon is 'one of the great sights which every American should see.' Grand Canyon National Park is rich in history. Discover its secrets in any of six distinctive information centers spread throughout the park.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Desert View Watchtower is positioned for optimum views of the Grand Canyon, yet many miss this architecturally intriguing landmark. Don't pass up this highest point on the South Rim. Inside, spiraling stone staircases transport you to magical encounters with Hopi culture.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Four to five people die in the Grand Canyon every year. Dehydration, hypothermia and falling from the rim are your biggest safety hazards. Drink water, shield the sun, and take extra caution near the edge; it can be unstable and dangerous.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Admire, but don't pick wildflowers. Ancient ruins are fragile treasures; don't sit on ruin walls. Taking even a small piece of pottery or bit of an arrowhead is a federal offense. Touch, but return it to where you found it. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00046f2b63e64c54ab7a6&ll=36.015505,-112.042351&spn=0.151068,0.363579&z=8&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00046f2b63e64c54ab7a6&ll=36.015505,-112.042351&spn=0.151068,0.363579&z=8&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Grand Canyon - Insider's Secrets For The Best Day Trip Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",SW010241,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/grand_canyon_tour_-_insiders_secrets_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0083UCU0W,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940014427616,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Intro to Perfect Day Trip"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Flagstaff to Navajo Rez"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Avoid Delays at East Entry"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Amazing Desert View Drive"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Canyon View Info Plaza"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Bright Angel Lodge\/El Tovar "",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]}]}",

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Choose a side bag, not a backpack. Guards and museum workers prohibit backpacks that may snag on artwork or bump other guests. Messenger bags and purses are acceptable.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Take a break in one of the cafes. Walking through 5000 years of history can be exhausting! Luckily, the museum offers plenty of benches where you can sit and muse over the artwork. For an inspiring break, choose one of the cafes for snacks, coffee, or a glass of wine. The Petrie Caf&#233; offers a backdrop of marble sculptures while the American Wing Caf&#233; is like lunching in a glass pyramid.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Visit early and on the weekdays. The museum is a major destination for out-of-towners and locals alike. Arrive when the doors open and enjoy the serenity of marble statues and oil paintings without the school kids.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Become a member. The Metropolitan Museum's membership gives you first-hand access to museum news and multiple visits throughout the year. Inquire at the information desk.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Enter at the side entrance. During busy hours, the Great Hall can become claustrophobic. Instead of walking up the steps, use the left-side glass doors to enter the museum. Few people enter this way so you can breeze through security, purchase your tickets, and actually take a seat while you check the information desk.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&aq=&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Snowmass,+Pitkin,+Colorado&msa=0&msid=211491265133730443337.0004a0d489057a4831f3f&ll=40.797437,-73.99395&spn=0.141388,0.363579&z=12&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&aq=&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Snowmass,+Pitkin,+Colorado&msa=0&msid=211491265133730443337.0004a0d489057a4831f3f&ll=40.797437,-73.99395&spn=0.141388,0.363579&z=12&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Highlights Of New York City's Metropolitan Museum Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",MR080298,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/metropolitan_museum_highlights_tour_new_york_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005479K3C,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940012922861,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Introduction"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""From Greece and Rome to Oceania"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""From European Sculpture to Arms and Armor"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""The American Wing"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""European Paintings"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Asian Art"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Egyptian Art"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]}]}",

The landscape here has been forged over vast stretches of time by shifting rockbed and extreme temperature changes, violent weather, relentless winds - all the powerful forces of erosion.

Historic Downtown Wilmington,"
<p>Nestled on the banks of the Cape Fear River, Wilmington is a city with a rich past, an exciting future, and a downtown full of charm and character. Tourists are drawn to the area because of its history, its brick streets and antebellum mansions, its varied museums, and its 'low-country' restaurants. But there's another reason people flock here this is the third-busiest film production site in the U.S., after New York and Hollywood. 'Wilmywood,' as some call it, has been the setting for numerous movies, including <i>Blue Velvet, Empire Records, Cape Fear, Black Knight, 28 Days,</i> and <i>The Crow,</i> and TV shows such as <i>Matlock, Dawson's Creek </i>and<i> One Tree Hill.</i></p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Welcome to Wilmington!</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Heart of Downtown</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Riverwalk</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Museums </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Architecture of Wilmington</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Can't find a parking spot on the street? Try one of the parking garages. There are three that charge by the hour, with the first hour free.

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you get tired of walking, try the free bus that runs in a loop from Red Cross Street to Ann Street. You will see signs for it along several streets.

The most important historical buildings and their cultural heritage have been preserved in excellent condition, allowing the visitor to obtain an accurate description of Brazil's past.<div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Historic Rio Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">National History Museum</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Museum of Brazilian Naval History</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Do Carmo Cathedral & Imperial Palace</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Brazilian Navy's Exposition</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Boat Trip to Fiscal Island</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Museum of the Republic</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Beware of Rio de Janeiro's aggressive drivers (both of cars and motorcycles). They rarely respect pedestrians crossing the street. Wait patiently for the green lights to allow you to get to the other side.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">At present US$5 is the entry fee for both the 'Light and Sound Show' at the Do Carmo Church and the Boat trip to Fiscal Island.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Beware of Rio's uneven pavements and streets. Most have been made with hundreds of golf-ball-size stones called <span style='border-collapse: collapse; font-family: arial; font-size: 13px;' class='Apple-style-span'>'Portuguese stones'<span style='border-collapse: separate; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px;' class='Apple-style-span'> that frequently get loose and leave dangerous holes in the ground.</span></span></ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Always have small change available such as the real 5 and 10 bank notes. Avoid wasting time and hassles by paying with the real 50 or 100 bills. (The real is the name of the currency.

"Imperial Beijing: Tian'anmen, Forbidden City, Jingshan","Tian'anmen Square and the Forbidden City are usually the first sights that travelers visit, and for good reason: they are the heart and soul of Beijing. Tian'anmen is one of the largest public squares in the world... it is amazing! Next, enjoy the Forbidden City, China's best-preserved architectural site and one of the top five palaces in the world. After that, you'll cross the street to Jingshan Park, a former imperial garden, and then climb the man-made Coal Hill for stunning views of the Forbidden City from above.<div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Imperial Treasures</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Tian'anmen Square: Beijing's Heart & Soul</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Forbidden City: Treasure Trove of History</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Jingshan Park: Overlooking the City</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Recommended Resources</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Before you leave home, tell your banks you'll be in China; otherwise they may not allow credit card charges or ATM withdrawals.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Try small neighborhood restaurants for authentic food that hasn't been modified for Western tastes. If the restaurant is packed with locals, you can be sure the food is tasty and fairly priced.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">A good phrase book is a must in Beijing. Try to get one that has the words in English, pinyin (Romanized words), and Chinese characters. When you bungle the pinyin pronunciation, you can point to the characters.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you're in desperate need of someone who speaks English in Beijing, look for a young person wearing glasses. Chances are they're studying English in school, and their eyes have gone bad from studying so much.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Chinese young people will approach you wanting to practice their English. Some legitimately want to improve their English, but if they ask you to an art show or for a cup of tea, don't go. They're scammers.

Also keep your rain gear in hand, as Ireland is known for its frequent, unpredictable showers.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">This tour will land you in the fishing village of Howth around dinnertime. You may want to call ahead to book reservations if you prefer not to wait to be seated. However, if you're not picky, the peninsula's restaurants all offer the same fresh fish from the Irish Sea. There are plenty of small restaurants and stands where you can purchase dinner to eat by the water!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Bring your camera. While there is no photography allowed inside Malahide Castle, there are plenty of photo opportunities on the surrounding grounds. Also, you'll have plenty of chances on the beach walk to snap great photos of Ireland's nature.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Bring your ID card with you to Malahide Castle. The tour offers lower rates for students, seniors and children. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Dogs are welcome at the beaches but beware: it's a hefty fine of &#128;150 - &#128;300 if you neglect to pick up the droppings. At the current exchange rate that's between $200 - $500!!!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00045902e36039885ee22&ll=53.458211,-6.193542&spn=0.223224,0.574036&z=11&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00045902e36039885ee22&ll=53.458211,-6.193542&spn=0.223224,0.574036&z=11&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Ireland's Malahide Castle And Beach Walk Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",MR010108,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/irelands_malahide_castle_and_beach_walk_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0070NJ60U,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940013669772,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Introduction"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Malahide Castle"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Malahide Village & Beaches"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Portmarnock: Velvet Strand"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Howth Pier"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]}]}",
Kids' Trip To Disney's Animal Kingdom,"<p>At Disney's Animal Kingdom, kids can experience the wonder and magic of close-up encounters with over 200 species of wildlife.

In this tour, a former Cast Member (Disney-speak for employee) will serve as your personal guide, helping you learn to navigate the park like a pro.

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Central Florida sun can be brutal, and Disney's Animal Kingdom is largely an outdoor park. Wear a hat and plenty of sunscreen, and be sure to stay hydrated. Personal misting fans can be purchased at the park, but are significantly less expensive at the local drugstores.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Carry a rain poncho, as the weather can be unpredictable. Many outdoor experiences close down when lightning is within five miles of the park, but will remain open during rain. A lot of guests leave at this time, offering those who are prepared much shorter waits at popular attractions.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Many guidebooks recommend going back to your hotel for an afternoon break. Rather than spending the time, why not join other guests napping in the shade at one of the well-maintained green spots?</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">It is easy for kids to become overwhelmed by the sights and sounds. To prevent overload, take time out to stop and watch the animals play or simply rest on a shady bench.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Kids' meals are significantly less expensive than adult meals, but do not feature as much variety. Adult portions are large, so if your kids are adventurous eaters, consider splitting an adult entr&#233;e with them.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&ll=28.404689,-81.590652&spn=0.161263,0.327187&z=12&msid=115812661471561779365.00046b8b444400e4af312&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&ll=28.404689,-81.590652&spn=0.161263,0.327187&z=12&msid=115812661471561779365.00046b8b444400e4af312&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Kids' Trip To Disney's Animal Kingdom Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",LF010162,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/disney_animal_kingdom_kids_tour_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004H4XEHQ,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940012402950,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Introduction"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Arriving"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Oasis\/Discovery\/Camp M-M"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Africa \/ Rafiki's"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Asia"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Dinoland U.S.A."",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]}]}",

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Don't over-plan your day. Although it is good to have a general design, many of the park's best moments are spontaneous. Leave plenty of time to stop and watch the street performers or relax in the shade while feeding the ducks.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Touch and interact with everything. Pull on ropes, lift rugs, and open crates. The park is filled with small details that are only accessible to those who go looking for them.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Involve your kids in planning the day.

If they are responsible enough, consider letting them carry their own spending money as well.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">At Disney's Hollywood Studios, kids are permitted to ride alone at the age of seven. Encourage their independence by allowing them to ride in a separate vehicle seat, or even go on an attraction alone while you wait at the exit.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Although many guidebooks recommend taking a midday hotel break away from Disney's Hollywood Studios, commuting takes time.

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">This is a huge park, and some kids get over-stimulated by all the excitement. The park is filled with secluded benches in shady spots, so take frequent rest breaks. Encourage your kids to snuggle with you, and they may just fall asleep.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Table-service restaurants are a great place to introduce your kids to new cuisines. Adult portions tend to be large, so if you aren't sure if your kids will like something, consider sharing a plate with them.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Involve your kids in planning the trip to Islands of Adventure. Let them take charge of minor decisions such as where to eat lunch, which will make the day more meaningful to them.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Meal Deal, priced at $20.99 for adults and $10.99 for children, allows you to dine all day at select counter service locations. The $8.99 souvenir cup allows unlimited fountain refills and may be shared.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">It is easy for even the most patient child to become overwhelmed by all the sights and sounds. Find a shaded bench in a quiet corner or take a long lunch break to rest and recharge for the evening hours.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Consider giving your kids a small souvenir budget for the day. Kids tend to be more selective about their purchases when they know they are spending 'their money.' Let them carry the money themselves if they are responsible enough not to lose it.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Have a plan, but stay flexible. The impromptu street entertainment and character appearances provide wonderful unplanned moments.

"Leura, Australia: A Gem Near Sydney","<p>The village of Leura in New South Wales rejuvenates your mind and body with leisurely pursuits or spirit-filled adventure. It is a horticultural paradise, best displayed each October during the Leura Village Fair. At least seven homes are open for display to the public and the Everglades Botanical Gardens is in full splendor. The surrounding Blue Mountains National Park is a magnificent backdrop to nature's spectacle. Sandstone landscaping, waterfalls, and maintained bush trails provide a fresh air retreat from the every day. Lookout points on the paths give panoramic views of eucalypt forests: the oil gives a blue hue to the atmosphere.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Village of Leura</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Bush Trails, Parks & Their Features </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Art, Shopping & Dining </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Accommodations</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Attractions, Festivals & Surrounds</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">There are many modes of public transportation within the village of Leura, and they service most popular bush trails. There are no car rentals in the village. You will have to rent a car in Sydney or Penrith if you want your own way of getting around. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Contact the park information centre about conditions of bush trails before you take them. There may be damage from the latest weather or fires. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Wear appropriate gear when taking trails. It may be sunny at the top, but as you descend into some areas, rain forests get damp and cold. Treaded and comfortable shoes are required for mossy rocks and steep areas. Take lots of water.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">There is no phone reception in most trail areas. Make sure that someone knows you are taking that trail for the day and take a friend that can return for help if needed. Telling hotel reception your plans for the day so they will know if you return to your room is a great safety tip.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Have an extra day on your trip?

"Mardi Gras In Shreveport & Bossier City, Louisiana","Spanning both sides of the Red River, Shreveport and Bossier City offer a wide range of activities. From riverboat gambling to river walk amusements, or from musical hot spots to the famous gastronomical creation called the 'Muffy.' Most anticipated in northwest Louisiana is the Mardi Gras season. Carnival is a farewell to flesh. A celebration of abundance before renouncing Earthly pleasures on Ash Wednesday. But not before the exclamation: <i>laissez les bons temps rouler,</i> or 'let the good times roll!' <i>Mardi Gras </i>is French for 'Fat Tuesday,' the biggest party day before the devout repentance of Lent. On the 'Other Side of Louisiana,' the fun-loving people of Shreveport and Bossier City celebrate an alternative version of Mardi Gras.<div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Where Cajun Meets Cowboy</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Mardi Gras Spirit</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Shreveport Style</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Bossier City</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Music and Muffies</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>

Maryhill: Guarding The Columbia River Gorge,"
<p>Psst! Wanna know a secret? Find out why Maryhill is the other Washington's best-kept travel secret. There is a world-class art museum with one of the largest collections of original Rodin works in the USA, and memorabilia which once belonged to the former royal family of Romania. You can visit a replica of Stonehenge which is the first World War I memorial in the USA, an award-winning winery, or enjoy stunning panoramic views of the Columbia Gorge below. With all this to offer, Maryhill won't stay a secret for long!</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">A Little Bit of History</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Washington's Stonehenge</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Maryhill Museum of Art</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Wine!

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you visit in the summer, be sure to stop at Maryhill Bar for fresh-picked tree ripened fruits. Directional signs to the fruit stands are visible right after you cross the Sam Hill Bridge into Washington.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Gas stations are limited in this part of the country. Oregon has lower gas taxes than Washington, so gas at Biggs Junction, Oregon, is usually a few cents cheaper. Another gas station is just north of the museum on Highway 97.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">When visiting the museum, be alert for rattlesnakes. Museum officials say you're not likely to come across any unless you crawl under the bushes looking for them. But Eastern Washington is rattlesnake country, so you can never be too careful. Bull snakes are also sighted on the grounds.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Maryhill Museum is handicap accessible, with ramps and elevators. The museum also has a wheelchair and stroller to loan to visitors who need them.

Medieval Dublin,"<p>Set alongside Ireland's eastern coast, Dublin is just a short trip from the beautiful beach cities in County Fingal. This medieval tour explores some of the oldest buildings in the heart of Dublin. First we will stop at Trinity College, home to the book of Kells. Next, we learn how Irish women used to 'save face' or 'lose face' sitting by the fires of Dublin Castle. For lunch we can visit the country's oldest restaurant or stop at one of the many eateries in the famous Temple Bar area. Then we'll finish the tour with a visit to the country's medieval churches.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Medieval Dublin</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Trinity College</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Dublin Castle</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Inside Dublin Castle </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Temple Bar & Cathedral</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you have an ID card, carry it with you to Dublin. Most tours offer lower rates for students, seniors and children. Some tours have group specials as well; make sure to check the rates before purchasing.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Arrive early at Ireland's TrinityCastle to see the Book of Kells. Admission begins at 9:30 (12 noon for Sundays during October-April). Between the hours of 10 and 11, the line quadruples in length.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Dublin Castle tours run on a pre-existing schedule. Tickets sell out around 1-2 hours in advance, depending on the time of day and the season. Plan for this by purchasing tickets before exploring the rest of the castle grounds: Revenue Museum, Gift Shop, Cafe, Garden and Library - or use the waiting time for lunch.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">A favorite joke among Irish tour guides: 'If the skies are gray, it's probably raining. If the skies are blue, it's probably going to rain.' So make sure to have rain gear in hand as you travel through Ireland. The skies can change from blue to gray in moments, and before you know it, you might be fighting forces of nature if not prepared. Though the showers may not endure, they are frequent and unpredictable. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">In Dublin, get acquainted with the Dart and bus schedule. Though you won't need to take public transportation during this tour, you may need to ride the Dart into or out of downtown at the start or end of your tour.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.000459008e145fd94fe4d&ll=53.352344,-6.263409&spn=0.027973,0.071754&z=14&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.000459008e145fd94fe4d&ll=53.352344,-6.263409&spn=0.027973,0.071754&z=14&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Medieval Dublin Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",MR010077,audio|cd|quietguide|video,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/medieval_dublin_tour_preview.pdf,http://www.youtube.com/embed/w_ev3EA77u0,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0041KL766,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940012411273,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Medieval Dublin"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0077DubMedi\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/DubMedi1_MediDub.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0077DubMedi\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/DubMedi1_MediDub.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Trinity College"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0077DubMedi\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/DubMedi2_Trinity.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0077DubMedi\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/DubMedi2_Trinity.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Dublin Castle"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0077DubMedi\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/DubMedi3_DblnCstle.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0077DubMedi\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/DubMedi3_DblnCstle.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Inside Dublin Castle "",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0077DubMedi\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/DubMedi4_Inside.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0077DubMedi\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/DubMedi4_Inside.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Temple Bar & Cathedral"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0077DubMedi\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/DubMedi5_TmplBar.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0077DubMedi\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/DubMedi5_TmplBar.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]}]}",Medieval Dublin:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0077DubMedi/mp3/DubMedi1_MediDub.mp3|Trinity College:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0077DubMedi/mp3/DubMedi2_Trinity.mp3|Dublin Castle:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0077DubMedi/mp3/DubMedi3_DblnCstle.mp3|Inside Dublin Castle :http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0077DubMedi/mp3/DubMedi4_Inside.mp3|Temple Bar & Cathedral:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0077DubMedi/mp3/DubMedi5_TmplBar.mp3|
Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge,"<p>Merritt Island Wildlife Refuge is one of the largest refuges in Florida. It's ironic that one of the most secure, futuristic government facilities is surrounded by the most pristine landscape in central Florida. Water - fresh, salt, and brackish estuary - and climate that ranges from temperate to subtropical create an unbelievable species diversity. There are over 500 kinds of animal life and 1,000 plant varieties, 15 of which are on the threatened or endangered list. This tour will guide you to the best birding spots and the most likely places to view wildlife in central Florida.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Visitors Center</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Beach & Hammock Trails</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Bio Lab Road</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">More Wildlife Viewing</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Black Point Wildlife Drive</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Be sure to bring lots of sunscreen, bug repellant, water, and any other items you will need. There is just the one gift shop and no restaurants on the refuge. Carrying your cell phone in case of an emergency is a good idea also.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Fall and winter are the best times to visit the refuge. Morning and evening are the best times of day. However, you are sure to see an abundance of wildlife at any time.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Wearing drab clothing, limiting talking on trails, and avoiding unnecessary noise will increase you chances of seeing wildlife.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>

Michigan's Magical Mackinac Island,"
<p>A quick ferry ride to this scenic Great Lakes island is a fascinating and fun trip back in time. Hop on a bicycle or a horse-drawn carriage to explore Mackinac's auto-free escape, where fur traders gathered in the 1600s, colonial soldiers occupied a fort high on the bluffs in the 1700s, and wealthy visitors 'summered' in the 1800s. Today, it's a great 21st-century destination, with its well-preserved fort and mansions, hundreds of acres of forest and beach, and a Victorian downtown filled with great shopping and dining. </p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Welcome to Mackinac</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Traveling to the Island</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Downtown</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Fort Mackinac</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Grand Hotel </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Natural Mackinac </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Circling the Island</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Some visitors mistakenly believe that the elegant (and expensive) Grand Hotel is the only lodging on Mackinac Island. Not true - there's a range of accommodations on the island, from simple bed-and-breakfast inns to resorts. There's no camping, though. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">It's easy to visit Mackinac Island as a day trip. Ferries make the half-hour crossing at least once an hour in the summer months, departing the mainland as early as 7 or 8 in the morning and returning as late as 9 at night. That's plenty of time to enjoy much of what Mackinac has to offer.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">You can save a few bucks buying your ferry tickets to Mackinac Island online. You don't even have to specify which ferry times you want. The three ferry lines are Arnold Transit, Shepler's and Star Line. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you enjoy history, consider buying the Mackinac Triple Choice ticket when you pay your admission to Fort Mackinac. It's a good deal that will also grant you admission into two excellent historic state parks - Colonial Michilimackinac and Historic Mill Creek Discovery Park - and a neat old lighthouse in Mackinaw City. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Mackinac Island ferry lines also offer sunset and other sightseeing cruises in the Straits of Mackinac. Shepler's has a particularly good Lighthouse Cruise that sails past several of the old historic lights in Lake Huron and Lake Michigan. It's the only way to get an up-close look unless you have your own boat. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Grand Hotel's time-capsule setting made it the perfect location for the 1980 film 'Somewhere in Time.'

<ul> 
 <li><span style='font-size: 9pt;'>Montr&#233;al's street signage is in French, so if you're driving into the city, it's best to familiarize yourself with your routes beforehand. 'Ouest' = West, 'Est' = East, 'Nord' = North and 'Sud' = South.</span></li> 
 <li><span style='font-size: 9pt;'>A standard tip in Montreal is 15%</span></li> 
 <li><span style='font-size: 9pt;'>Montr&#233;al is a functionally bilingual city, with nearly everyone in the service industry fluent in both French and English. That said, a simple 'Bonjour!' goes a long way with locals and will be well-received.</span></li> 
 <li><span style='font-size: 9pt;'>Other helpful phrases include, 'Merci' (Thank you), 'Je ne parle pas francais' (I don't speak French), 'Parles-vous anglais?' (Do you speak English?), 'Bonsoir' (Good evening) and 'Au revoir' (Goodbye).</span></li> 
 <li><span style='font-size: 9pt;'>Montr&#233;al's metro (subway) is a cheap and efficient way to get around the city. It's open from 5:30 a.m. - 1:00 a.m. Sundays through Thursdays, and 5:30 a.m. - 1:30 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays.

"Moravia, The Gem Of The Czech Republic","
<p>The Moravian region in eastern Czech Republic has been described as a unique open-air museum of religious heritage, where generations of monarchs - as well as commoners - built magnificent monuments devoted to their faith. Moravia is surely the most religious part of the country: it is filled with pilgrimage shrines, towering churches, and stately palaces. Many of the locations we'll visit are part of the venerated UNESCO World Heritage list.

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Prague is the capital and largest city of the Czech Republic, thus it is a transportation hub for much of Central Europe. A large 'art nouveau' train station and a modern, international airport serve the city. An extensive road system weaves through the country.

It is the quickest way to reach Moravia.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>

Motorcycle Museums In Britain,"Britain has a proud heritage when it comes to motorcycles. For six decades, its manufacturers produced the best-built, fastest bikes in the world.

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Birmingham bus day tickets are incredibly cheap (less than the cost of one round-trip) and allow unlimited bus travel when purchased after <time minute='30' hour='9'></time>9:30 a.m. Buy them on board the bus for travel around <city></city>Birmingham or to outlying areas, such as Solihull, <city></city>Coventry, or Stratford-upon-Avon. Exact change is required.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">London Travel Cards offer unlimited travel on buses and the tube. Most travelers won't go beyond central <city></city>London (Zones 1-2), so don't buy more zones than you need. If you need to travel beyond Zone 2 only once, just add that zone for the day. Travel Cards can be purchased at train and tube stations. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Most attractions offer discounts to travelers 60 years of age or older. The savings can be substantial. For example, National Express gives 50 percent discounts to seniors. The ticket board may not always say 'senior' discount. Look for 'concession' or 'OAP,' for old-age people.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If <city></city>Birmingham is your first stop after landing at Heathrow, save time getting there by taking National Coach direct from the airport to central <city></city>Birmingham. It beats going into central <city></city>London to catch the train.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">To save money while eating out, look for restaurants that offer special prices on meals ordered before <time minute='30' hour='17'></time>5:30 p.m. and/or are part of a set course menu.

"Mystic, Connecticut: Across The Centuries","
<p>Explore Mystic across the ages! In your visit to Connecticut's eastern coast, be sure to enjoy sights and sounds from the 17<sup>th</sup> century through present day. First, visit the trendy downtown area where you'll have the chance to shop for antiques and see the drawbridge. Next, visit Mystic Seaport, an authentic recreation of a 19<sup>th-</sup>century New England whaling village. Finish the tour at Olde Mistick Village: designed to have the look and feel of a 17<sup>th-</sup>century village, this tourist attraction features an eclectic mix of specialty and import stores.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Mystic Across the Ages</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Downtown Mystic</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Mystic River Walk</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Mystic Seaport</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Olde Mistick Village</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you're not sure when to visit New England, consider scheduling your trip during autumn when the fall foliage is at its best. The leaves start changing colors in early October, and although it may get a bit nippy outside, the spectacular displays of orange, red and yellow make the chilly fall air almost imperceptible.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Parking in downtown can be difficult, especially during peak tourist seasons, afternoon and evening. To avoid this problem, arrive early in the morning, or park at the Seaport and walk over: it is a scenic stroll and well worth the time.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you do decide to park in the downtown area, be sure to check the signs: most spaces have a strictly enforced two-hour limit. There is a parking lot located next to the marina on Route 215, across from the Voodoo Grill.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Traffic can be slow here since there are a lot of pedestrians, and vehicles get backed up when the drawbridge is open. On the bright side, drivers in this area are friendly: even though traffic moves slowly at times, there will always be someone willing to let you merge in. Keep a sharp eye on speed limit signs: these laws are strictly enforced.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Olde Mistick Village offers free concerts at the gazebo during the summer, so be sure to check for concerts that coincide with your trip. Also look for arts and crafts shows, which the village hosts during the summer season.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00045e094b64708820b3a&ll=41.375392,-71.957874&spn=0.068787,0.163593&z=13&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00045e094b64708820b3a&ll=41.375392,-71.957874&spn=0.068787,0.163593&z=13&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Mystic, Connecticut: Across The Centuries Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",MR010120,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/mystic_connecticut_tour_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005IDOVZ4,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940013031630,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Mystic Across the Ages"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Downtown Mystic"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Mystic River Walk"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Mystic Seaport"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Olde Mistick Village"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]}]}",

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Dress in layers. Mornings can be cool and fog can roll in at the drop of a hat, blanketing one part of the island while the rest is bright and sunny.

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Nantucket Reds&#153; are a surefire way to look like a local. A faded, worn-out pair of shorts is a badge of pride. Pick up a hat, pair of pants, or a shirt at Murrays on Main St.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you are driving to Nyack, plan ahead and bring your bike. Nyack is extremely hospitable to bicyclists so don't worry about finding a place for your bike - racks are everywhere! However, if you don't own a bike, you can rent one for about $40/day at Piermont Bike Connection, 215 Ash Street, Piermont, NY. Just call 845-365-0900 for directions. They are only a five-minute drive from Nyack.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you are a foodie, catch the farmer's market every Thursday from 8am to 2pm on Main Street in Nyack. You can't miss those white tents!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Check out the Old Village Hall at 134 Main Street, which is now a restaurant. It was built in the 1880s and still has the original tin ceiling and dark woodwork. The old jail still stands at the rear. It was once used mainly to hold drunks until they sobered up. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Before you plan a trip to Nyack, think about the weather! Each season has its perks, but since this is a predominantly walking tour I'd recommend warmer weather. Nyack is also the quintessential holiday town, with numerous shops to find that perfect gift. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00045b83a55cc49baa8c7&ll=41.122556,-73.913441&spn=0.070605,0.143509&z=13&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00045b83a55cc49baa8c7&ll=41.122556,-73.913441&spn=0.070605,0.143509&z=13&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Navigating New York's Nyack On The Hudson Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",SC010063,audio|cd|quietguide|video,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/nyack_tour_near_new_york_city_preview.pdf,http://www.youtube.com/embed/J5DOWI2bhl8,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B006MJJDLK,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940013877795,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Navigating Nyack"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0063NyackHudsn\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/NyackNY1_Navigating.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0063NyackHudsn\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/NyackNY1_Navigating.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Nyack Beach State Park"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0063NyackHudsn\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/NyackNY2_NyackStBchPk.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0063NyackHudsn\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/NyackNY2_NyackStBchPk.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""A Stroll Along the Mansions"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0063NyackHudsn\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/NyackNY3_Mansions.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0063NyackHudsn\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/NyackNY3_Mansions.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Edward Hopper House Art Center"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0063NyackHudsn\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/NyackNY4_HopperHouse.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0063NyackHudsn\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/NyackNY4_HopperHouse.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Satisfy Your Appetites!"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0063NyackHudsn\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/NyackNY5_Appetites.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0063NyackHudsn\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/NyackNY5_Appetites.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Dinner & Drinks"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0063NyackHudsn\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/NyackNY6_Dinner.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0063NyackHudsn\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/NyackNY6_Dinner.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]}]}",Navigating Nyack:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0063NyackHudsn/mp3/NyackNY1_Navigating.mp3|Nyack Beach State Park:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0063NyackHudsn/mp3/NyackNY2_NyackStBchPk.mp3|A Stroll Along the Mansions:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0063NyackHudsn/mp3/NyackNY3_Mansions.mp3|Edward Hopper House Art Center:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0063NyackHudsn/mp3/NyackNY4_HopperHouse.mp3|Satisfy Your Appetites!:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0063NyackHudsn/mp3/NyackNY5_Appetites.mp3|Dinner & Drinks:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0063NyackHudsn/mp3/NyackNY6_Dinner.mp3|
Near Denver: Colorado's Hot Springs Trail,"<p>Want to get into hot water? Head for Colorado's Hot Springs Trail! Just three hours from Denver awaits a relaxing world of geothermal springs that nourishes a thriving Colorado spa industry - set amid a kaleidoscope of towering mountains, raging whitewaters, and spiritual valleys. It's all here, including the world's largest outdoor hot mineral springs swimming pool, a family-style hot springs resort, a spiritual valley hot springs center, South-Pacific-Island-style mud bath hot springs, and underground soaking caves. En route: an open-air swing-fling over a huge canyon, river rafting, wine tasting, tundra, alligators, UFOs, and some legendary folk. Relax! Enjoy!</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Rocky Mountain Hot</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Heated Homestead</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Joyfully Hot</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Hot Mud</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">You don't have to bring a swimsuit! But bring warm clothing and sunscreen. At higher elevations, you're nearly sun-kissing, and the whitewaters and tundra summit of the Continental Divide are ice-cold year-round, thanks to the Rocky Mountains.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">You can enhance your hot mineral springs experience with professional spa body treatments, many combining local herb products with historic, native rituals.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The springs are open year-round, and are close to popular winter ski resorts like Aspen and Vail. This makes the Hot Springs Trail very cool, every day of the year!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Every mineral spring has different admission costs, overnight accommodations, treatments, and combination discounts, which are not available through travel agencies or web consolidators. Ask directly or check the individual websites.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Speed limits are visitor-friendly! Drive too fast and you'll miss the startling wildlife, thundering waterfalls, and other jaw-dropping scenery tucked along the roadsides - or you might careen off the hairpin mountain turns! Drive too slow and you could irritate the locals.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00046130612de53d0fad8&ll=40.979898,-106.325684&spn=4.428733,10.469971&z=6&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00046130612de53d0fad8&ll=40.979898,-106.325684&spn=4.428733,10.469971&z=6&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Near Denver: Colorado's Hot Springs Trail Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",KB010121,audio|cd|quietguide|video,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/hot_springs_trail_tour_near_denver_preview.pdf,http://www.youtube.com/embed/b9kN0SL0lKQ,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00408AWP6,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940012466549,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Introduction"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0121DenvHtSp\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/DenvHtSp1_Intro.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0121DenvHtSp\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/DenvHtSp1_Intro.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Rocky Mountain Hot"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0121DenvHtSp\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/DenvHtSp2_RkyMntHt.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0121DenvHtSp\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/DenvHtSp2_RkyMntHt.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Heated Homestead"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0121DenvHtSp\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/DenvHtSp3_HtdHmstd.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0121DenvHtSp\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/DenvHtSp3_HtdHmstd.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Joyfully Hot"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0121DenvHtSp\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/DenvHtSp4_JyflyHot.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0121DenvHtSp\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/DenvHtSp4_JyflyHot.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Hot Mud"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0121DenvHtSp\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/DenvHtSp5_HotMud.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0121DenvHtSp\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/DenvHtSp5_HotMud.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]}]}",Introduction:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0121DenvHtSp/mp3/DenvHtSp1_Intro.mp3|Rocky Mountain Hot:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0121DenvHtSp/mp3/DenvHtSp2_RkyMntHt.mp3|Heated Homestead:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0121DenvHtSp/mp3/DenvHtSp3_HtdHmstd.mp3|Joyfully Hot:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0121DenvHtSp/mp3/DenvHtSp4_JyflyHot.mp3|Hot Mud:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0121DenvHtSp/mp3/DenvHtSp5_HotMud.mp3|
Neolithic Newgrange,"<p>County Meath is a must-see day trip for travelers in the surrounding area. Just an hour north of Dublin, visitors have the chance to explore the astronomical phenomenon of Newgrange and the Hill of Tara, the former seat for Ireland's kings. Start your tour at the Bru na Boinne Visitor Centre, where you will be able to learn more about the sites through audio-visual displays and exhibitions. From here you can be transported to and from the locations of your choosing. An easy and cost-effective trip - you will certainly get the most bang for your buck!</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Neolithic Ireland</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Visitors Center</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Newgrange</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Hill of Tara</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Although you can drive separately, or enlist in a guided tour embarking from Dublin, it is recommended that you take this tour through the Bru na Boinne Visitor Centre. In doing so you will have the opportunity to brief yourself on the history of the sites and then customize your tour of Ireland's County Meath to suit your needs.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Be sure to carry your student ID card: you can get a discount!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">As always, while in Ireland, dress in layers - and make sure the top layer is waterproof! The local weather has a habit of springing unexpected bouts of rain on its occupants, and since most of this tour is outdoors, you don't want to be caught without your rain jacket.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Newgrange and The Hill of Tara are two of the most popular sites, but that doesn't mean the other places aren't worth seeing as well! While at the Bru na Boinne Visitor Centre, take some time to see which sites will work best for you.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Again, this tour is mostly outdoors and in very rural areas. It's smart to pack light snacks to tide you over since you will be far from a cafe or eatery.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.000461409f63fc801ec1f&ll=53.871963,-6.514893&spn=0.884179,2.296143&z=9&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.000461409f63fc801ec1f&ll=53.871963,-6.514893&spn=0.884179,2.296143&z=9&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Neolithic Newgrange Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",MR010118,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/neolithic_newgrange_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0050YUU2O,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940012415134,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Neolithic Ireland"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Visitors Center"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Newgrange"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Hill of Tara"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]}]}",
Newfound Gap Road And The Great Smoky Mountains,"<p >The 30-mile Newfound Gap Road is the most popular route through the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, providing access to scenic vistas, including the 360-degree views from the Smokies' highest peak, Clingman's Dome. Along the way are opportunities for easy hikes, wildlife viewing, and access to the region's human history. </p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Newfound Gap Road Tour</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Mountain Farm Museum</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Mingus Mill & Scenic Overlooks</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Clingman's Dome & Newfound Gap</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Chimneys & Little Pigeon River</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Avoid the Newfound Gap Road in the busy summer months and during fall color season when it can actually be subject to traffic jams. Plan your trip for spring, late fall, or winter.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Allow at least a half day for the drive if you want to take in the major sights at the visitor centers as well as stop at overlooks and take the short hike to the Clingman's Dome observation tower.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>

"Ottawa, Canada's Capital - The Perfect Walking Tour","<p>Ottawa is often overshadowed by its larger neighbors, but the country's capital has much for visitors to enjoy and warrants more than a fleeting glance. Explore the origins of the city, the superlative museums commemorating Canada's past, and enjoy a riverside skyline so utterly photogenic you'll need a spare memory card to do it justice. Never far away is the iconic Peace Tower, part of the parliament buildings that serve as Ottawa's enchanting centerpiece. No need for five-hour strolls or subway rides compact Ottawa is perfect for a walking tour and boasts all the excitement and sparkle of city life!</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Great Walking Tour!</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Ottawa's Origins</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Parliament Hill</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">First Nations Encounters</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Sussex Drive</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Byward Market</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you want to take a tour inside the parliament buildings, make sure you arrive early. By lunchtime all free tickets for the rest of the day have usually been snapped up. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Ottawa's main museums are free on Thursday evenings after 5pm (including the National Gallery and the Museum of Civilisation), so visit then if at all possible. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Don't forget to grab a transfer ticket if you're using buses. These allow you to use any bus in Ottawa or Gatineau for a couple of hours (check the time on your ticket). </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you're visiting in winter, bring thermals, good gloves, and be prepared for biting cold. But don't let it put you off; Ottawa embraces its Arctic winter and this is a beautiful time to visit. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Make sure you book well ahead in summer, as hotels, restaurants, and guided tours fill up quickly. Canada Day (July 1st) is a great time to visit, though it is, perhaps, the busiest time of the year. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00046ead9a241aa2ba358&ll=45.425474,-75.709448&spn=0.018795,0.055747&z=15&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00046ead9a241aa2ba358&ll=45.425474,-75.709448&spn=0.018795,0.055747&z=15&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Ottawa, Canada's Capital - The Perfect Walking Tour Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",LC010204,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/ottawa_canadas_capital_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0070F2V3C,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940013696006,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Great Walking Tour!"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Ottawa's Origins"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Parliament Hill"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""First Nations Encounters"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Sussex Drive"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""The Byward Market"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]}]}",
"Paradise Found: Puerto Lopez And Guayaquil, Ecuador","<p>Puerto Lopez, on the coast of Ecuador in Manabi Province, is an undiscovered gem for new and experienced eco-tourists. Start your vacation in busy Guayaquil to get an idea of the country's fascinating history, and then take a short bus ride to the coast. There, you'll discover deserted beaches, tropical, sub-tropical, and humid eco-systems, unmatched wildlife, and a culture that practically begs you to slow down and see what the natural world has to offer.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction: Guayaquil & the Historical Park</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Guayaquil: The Malec&#243;n, Las Pe&#241;as, & Cerro Santa Ana</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Puerto Lopez: How to Get There / Agua Blanca</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Playa de los Frailes</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Isla de la Plata</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Beach in Puerto Lopez & Ecuador's Coastal Sunsets</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Welcome to the equator! Remember that the sun is very strong in Ecuador, even if you don't feel hot. Bring plenty of sunscreen, a wide hat, and sunglasses - and keep them with you all the time.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Bring bottled water and buy it wherever you can. It's amazing how quickly you can get thirsty - and not have access to safe bottled water.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Brush up on your Spanish, either basic or advanced, before you go to Ecuador. As you go further into the small towns, you'll find few people who understand English. Plus, the friendly people will love you even more if you try out some Spanish on them!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Be prepared to slow down! The pace of life in Ecuador is much slower than in the U.S. or Europe; in fact, it's quite refreshing. Don't watch the clock, and take your time. This trip can be the most interesting and relaxing you've ever had!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Use bug spray on your feet and consider using Teva Sandals or even Crocs for short hikes and trips to the beaches and islands. As soon as you leave the trails, you'll want to take off your shoes and put your feet in the clear, cold Pacific water.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00045b829159fb971196e&ll=-1.683413,-80.282593&spn=1.498944,2.296143&z=9&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00045b829159fb971196e&ll=-1.683413,-80.282593&spn=1.498944,2.296143&z=9&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Paradise Found: Puerto Lopez And Guayaquil, Ecuador Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",CA010058,audio|cd|quietguide|video,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/puerto_lopez_&_guayaquil_ecuador_preview.pdf,http://www.youtube.com/embed/lijaUAoRr68,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B006M2EOFM,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940013846128,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Introduction: Guayaquil & the Historical Park"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0058EcuPar\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/EcuPar1_Intro.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0058EcuPar\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/EcuPar1_Intro.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Guayaquil: The Malec&#243;n, Las Pe&#241;as, & Cerro Santa Ana"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0058EcuPar\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/EcuPar2_Guayaquil.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0058EcuPar\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/EcuPar2_Guayaquil.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Puerto Lopez: How to Get There \/ Agua Blanca"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0058EcuPar\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/EcuPar3_PrtoLpz.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0058EcuPar\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/EcuPar3_PrtoLpz.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Playa de los Frailes"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0058EcuPar\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/EcuPar4_PlayaFrls.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0058EcuPar\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/EcuPar4_PlayaFrls.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Isla de la Plata"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0058EcuPar\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/EcuPar5_IslaPlata.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0058EcuPar\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/EcuPar5_IslaPlata.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""The Beach in Puerto Lopez & Ecuador's Coastal Sunsets"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0058EcuPar\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/EcuPar6_Beach.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0058EcuPar\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/EcuPar6_Beach.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]}]}","Introduction: Guayaquil & the Historical Park:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0058EcuPar/mp3/EcuPar1_Intro.mp3|Guayaquil: The Malec&#243;n, Las Pe&#241;as, & Cerro Santa Ana:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0058EcuPar/mp3/EcuPar2_Guayaquil.mp3|Puerto Lopez: How to Get There / Agua Blanca:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0058EcuPar/mp3/EcuPar3_PrtoLpz.mp3|Playa de los Frailes:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0058EcuPar/mp3/EcuPar4_PlayaFrls.mp3|Isla de la Plata:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0058EcuPar/mp3/EcuPar5_IslaPlata.mp3|The Beach in Puerto Lopez & Ecuador's Coastal Sunsets:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0058EcuPar/mp3/EcuPar6_Beach.mp3|"

Philipsburg: Gem Of St. Maarten In The Antilles,"<p>Philipsburg is the capital of Dutch St. Maarten. While the official language is Dutch and the Antillean florin is still around, English is the common language and American dollars are the way to pay. In Philipsburg, visitors can go for a sunny stroll on the boardwalk, a shopping spree in the duty-free stores, a refreshing dip in the Caribbean Sea, an exhilarating excursion, or a walk past historical buildings. Fort Amsterdam offers amazing views and a sense of history, whereas St. Maarten Park pleases the kids with exotic animals. And, the vibrant Carnival in Philipsburg is not to be missed!</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Center of Town & Pond</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Front Street</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Waterfront & Museum</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Fort Amsterdam</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">St. Maarten Park</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Philipsburg is part of the Caribbean. Bring light clothes, maybe a sweater for the nights, a sun hat, and sunscreen. Don't forget your sunglasses; that strong sun reflected in the turquoise water is very bright!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Cruise ships bring a lot of people into downtown Philipsburg. That means a busier atmosphere, but also more possibilities to shop, buy cheap beer, enjoy live music, and join extended happy hours.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Visit Philipsburg in April when the annual Carnival celebrations take place. Watch the colorful, vibrant parades and dance to the beats of Calypso music.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Explore Fort Amsterdam on a separate occasion during the cooler hours of the day. Even though the wind provides a cool breeze up there, the sun is hot and shade is limited.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">An extra day in Philipsburg? Take a $2 bus to Marigot, capital of French St. Martin, or to Simpson Bay.

Piazza San Pietro: Where Roman Histories Converge,"Piazza San Pietro, or St. Peter's Square, sits at the entrance to Vatican City in Rome. Just west of the Tiber River and within a short distance of the Roman Forum and Palatine Hill, the Piazza marks a point of intersection for classical and modern Roman and European histories. Many noteworthy historical figures have left their architectural and artistic fingerprints on the Piazza's development, making this site an ideal introduction to the art and sculpture exhibited in St. Peter's Basilica and the Vatican Museums. A gentle walk through the Piazza reveals statues, inscriptions, colonnades, and other visually exciting features.<div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Entering the Piazza</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Obelisk</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Fountains</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Facade: St Peter's Basilica </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Entrance: St Peter's Basilica</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Travel to Piazza San Pietro on the Metro (subway), but get off at the Ottaviano-San Pietro stop (not the Cipro-Musei Vaticani stop), which is closer to the piazza's entrance and the end of the line to enter the Vatican Museums.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Do not visit on a Sunday expecting a good walking tour. The Piazza will be packed with visitors for Sunday Mass. Wednesday is the best day to come for a Papal audience, though you must schedule in advance.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Arrive in proper attire, with knees and shoulders covered, or you will not be admitted to the Basilica or the Vatican Museums. Scarves, available in nearby shops, can cover shoulders or be tied around waists to cover knees.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Bring food and enjoy an open-air meal in the warm glow of the Rome sun. The shade of the colonnades surrounding the Piazza provides an apt setting for a leisurely lunch - to refresh yourself before, during, or after your visit.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">As anywhere in Rome, be ever mindful of pickpockets, scam artists, and other thieving sorts. Do not pass your camera to anyone else to photograph you, and be sure your bags are kept close and closed at all times.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.000460ca5ccbc027d7e0a&ll=41.920545,12.42485&spn=0.06974,0.143509&z=13&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.000460ca5ccbc027d7e0a&ll=41.920545,12.42485&spn=0.06974,0.143509&z=13&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Piazza San Pietro: Where Roman Histories Converge Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",RF010065,audio|cd|quietguide|video,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/st._peters_square_tour_rome_preview.pdf,http://www.youtube.com/embed/F6H9gQXzahU,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004Z206QM,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940012519153,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Introduction"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0065SPietHst\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SPietHst1_Intro.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0065SPietHst\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SPietHst1_Intro.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Entering the Piazza"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0065SPietHst\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SPietHst2_EntrPiazza.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0065SPietHst\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SPietHst2_EntrPiazza.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""The Obelisk"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0065SPietHst\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SPietHst3_Obelisk.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0065SPietHst\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SPietHst3_Obelisk.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""The Fountains"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0065SPietHst\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SPietHst4_Fountains.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0065SPietHst\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SPietHst4_Fountains.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Facade: St Peter's Basilica "",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0065SPietHst\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SPietHst5_Facade.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0065SPietHst\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SPietHst5_Facade.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Entrance: St Peter's Basilica"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0065SPietHst\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SPietHst6_EntrBslca.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0065SPietHst\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SPietHst6_EntrBslca.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]}]}",Introduction:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0065SPietHst/mp3/SPietHst1_Intro.mp3|Entering the Piazza:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0065SPietHst/mp3/SPietHst2_EntrPiazza.mp3|The Obelisk:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0065SPietHst/mp3/SPietHst3_Obelisk.mp3|The Fountains:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0065SPietHst/mp3/SPietHst4_Fountains.mp3|Facade: St Peter's Basilica :http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0065SPietHst/mp3/SPietHst5_Facade.mp3|Entrance: St Peter's Basilica:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0065SPietHst/mp3/SPietHst6_EntrBslca.mp3|

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Because of its compact size the Old City is fairly easy to navigate, especially on foot or by bicycle.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Since Quebec City is 97% French-speaking, a basic knowledge of the French language is recommended for all visitors.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The modern visitor will find nearly all signs written in both French and English.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Quebec City is internationally known for its lively festivals. These (and most points of interest) are found within or very close to Vieux-Qu&#233;bec (Old Quebec).</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>

Quebec's Joyous Ode To Winter,"Quebec's Carnival in late January and early February celebrates winter and the cold. The party started in 1894, when bored settlers drank to forget their plight. It has since developed into more of a family event! For about $12, you get 17 days of tobogganing, zip-lining, and rides in rafts down snowy slopes. Young children can learn to ski. You can soak in outdoor hot-tubs, watch parades and dogsled races, dance to popular bands, and cavort in your bathing suit outdoors in the snow. The canoe racing on the icy river will thrill you it's a sport unique to <state></state>Quebec. And for a little extra money, enjoy the horse-drawn carriages and dogsled rides.

"Raleigh, North Carolina: Highlights","<p>The first thing visitors notice is how green the city is, with lots of grand old trees and vibrantly flowering shrubs even on the interstate highways you feel like you're in the country because the buildings are discreetly tucked behind lush foliage. Welcome to my home - the state capital, gateway to Research Triangle Park, and home of technology and pharmaceutical companies. Raleigh is spread out over a large area and has been growing rapidly for decades, so it isn't easy to find your way around. That's why you need to follow me! This tour focuses on the downtown center, but there are many other attractions in the area that are worthwhile. As a long-time resident of Raleigh, it is my pleasure to take you to a few of my favorite places.<br /></p><!--EndFragment--><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Capitol Square</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Bicentennial Mall</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Legislative Building & State Offices</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">House Tours</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Fayetteville Street & Moore Square</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Glenwood South</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Convention & Performing Arts Centers</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Entertainment & Sports Complex</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Raleigh is spread out and has no downtown expressway. The two interstate loops around the city can be clogged at rush hour, so travel times can vary widely depending upon the traffic. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Don't waste time trying to find free on-street parking downtown. Use one of the dozen or so parking garages that are cheap compared to other cities. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Raleigh is pretty any time of year, but spring and fall are the seasons when you will find the most color. The winters are mild, but the summers are hot and humid. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Raleigh Convention and Visitors Bureau has one of several useful websites to orient yourself prior to your visit. Call them for more specific information, group tours, a printed brochure, or special interest topics.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Don't rush through the tour. Pace yourself and stop to rest, get coffee, or just chat with the friendly folks you may see. If you don't see everything, so what? Come back on another day, or maybe even stay for a week!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00048bee08b446b05ba08&ll=35.779107,-78.642454&spn=0.033493,0.078535&z=14&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00048bee08b446b05ba08&ll=35.779107,-78.642454&spn=0.033493,0.078535&z=14&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Raleigh, North Carolina: Highlights Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",JS160283,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/raleigh_nc_highlights_tour_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ADX5OXW,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940015817454,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Introduction"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Capitol Square"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Bicentennial Mall"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Legislative Building & State Offices"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""House Tours"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Fayetteville Street & Moore Square"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Glenwood South"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Convention & Performing Arts Centers"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Entertainment & Sports Complex"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]}]}",
"Rio De Janeiro, Brazil: Copacabana And Ipanema","<p>'Rio.' The name summons images of impossibly beautiful people decorating sweeping beaches with domes of granite in the background. This is Rio's Zona Sul, or South Zone - but Zona Sul is so much more. Stroll past trendy clothing and shoe stores, or window-shop outside the high-end jewelry stores, then refresh yourself at the restaurant where the song 'The Girl from Ipanema' was written. If you enjoy the simpler pleasures, sip from a chilled coconut by the lake, strike up a conversation with the vendor at the newspaper stand, linger over a deliciously rich cup of coffee, or sit at the beach and marvel at the amazing game of 'foot volley.' Nestled between tree-shrouded cliffs and the shimmering South Atlantic, Rio's South Zone should be visited at least once.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Copacabana & Ipanema</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Copacabana - Part One</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Copacabana - Part Two</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Copacabana Beach</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Ipanema - Part One</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Ipanema - Part Two</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Ipanema Beach</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Actually, it can get chilly at times in Rio de Janeiro. March and April typically have fine weather, smaller crowds, and lower prices. August, September, and October also are good months to visit Brazil - not that there's ever a bad time to visit Rio!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Brazilians speak Portuguese, not Spanish. Any Spanish you speak will be an asset, but invest in a small English-Portuguese dictionary. Random House publishes a good pocket-sized one.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The media over-dramatize crime in Rio, which is largely confined to the hillside favelas. Even there, tourists are often considered 'off limits.' But reduce your chances of trouble by leaving fancy clothing and jewelry at home. Rio de Janeiro is a casual city, so come casual!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Many flights to Rio are overnighters, arriving early in the morning. You may want to arrange for early check-in. If this isn't possible, simply check your bags with the hotel porter and go to the beach until the room is ready. Just be sure to pack your swimsuit where you can easily get to it.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>

"Rio: Sugarloaf, Christ The Redeemer & Santa Teresa","<p>The geography of this sprawling city is unique. It is set between the South Atlantic and huge domes of granite, which afford breathtaking views of the ocean, Guanabara Bay, chic neighborhoods and shantytowns, and those oh-so-inviting beaches. The twin domes of Sugarloaf Mountain, accessed by cable car, provide 360-degree views of the city from two levels. The tour then visits Christ the Redeemer: perched atop Corcovado Mountain, the statue watches over the city. Below Christ's outstretched arms you will have views of the entire city, including Sugarloaf. Finish your trip at the lesser-known hilltop community of Santa Teresa, reached by Rio's last surviving streetcar. This is a favorite weekend hangout for locals, who come for the food and the samba. After lunch, enjoy the cool breezes and magnificent views as you sip your coffee and once again reach for your camera.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Sugarloaf Mountain</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Christ the Redeemer</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Santa Teresa</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">March and April are excellent months in which to visit Rio. Prices are lower and crowds lighter in these post-Carnival months. Rains are also less frequent. August, September, and October are also excellent months to visit. But there's never really a bad time to visit Rio!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Though Corcovado, Sugarloaf, and Santa Teresa are all wonderful sights, plan to stay in Copacabana or Ipanema, where you will have a wide selection of hotels and restaurants, and be close to the beach. You'll have no trouble getting from Copacabana or Ipanema to the sights covered in this tour.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Don't even think about renting a car in Rio. Traffic can be heavy, and vacation is not about negotiating unfamiliar streets and searching for parking. Buses and taxis run just about everywhere, and are much cheaper than back home. Rio also has a subway system. You can take the Metro to the Carioca station downtown and be only a 2-block walk to the tram that goes up to Santa Teresa.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Try to visit the sights covered in this tour - all of which are located in the heights above the city - on a clear day for the best views and photos. Be aware that weather in Rio is changeable due to its geography. Don't wait until late in your trip to visit these sights. If today is clear, go!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Please be aware that Brazilians speak Portuguese, not Spanish. Any Spanish that you speak may be a help, but do invest in a Brazilian Portuguese/English dictionary. Random House publishes an excellent pocket-sized dictionary.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><br /><br /></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00046ac3a778d5fcb752a&ll=-22.907803,-43.180389&spn=0.168875,0.327187&z=12&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00046ac3a778d5fcb752a&ll=-22.907803,-43.180389&spn=0.168875,0.327187&z=12&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Rio: Sugarloaf, Christ The Redeemer & Santa Teresa Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",JC020189,audio|cd|quietguide|video,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/rio_sugarloaf_christ_statue_santa_teresa_preview.pdf,http://www.youtube.com/embed/Ml1_IIMQAKk,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0041VXTA2,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940012497765,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Introduction"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0189RioSugar\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/RioSugar1_Intro.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0189RioSugar\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/RioSugar1_Intro.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Sugarloaf Mountain"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0189RioSugar\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/RioSugar2_Sugarloaf.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0189RioSugar\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/RioSugar2_Sugarloaf.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Christ the Redeemer"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0189RioSugar\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/RioSugar3_ChristRdmr.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0189RioSugar\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/RioSugar3_ChristRdmr.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Santa Teresa"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0189RioSugar\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/RioSugar4_StTeresa.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0189RioSugar\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/RioSugar4_StTeresa.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]}]}",Introduction:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0189RioSugar/mp3/RioSugar1_Intro.mp3|Sugarloaf Mountain:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0189RioSugar/mp3/RioSugar2_Sugarloaf.mp3|Christ the Redeemer:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0189RioSugar/mp3/RioSugar3_ChristRdmr.mp3|Santa Teresa:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0189RioSugar/mp3/RioSugar4_StTeresa.mp3|

Sacred Places Of Portugal,"
<p>Richly endowed by both nature and history, Portugal is a sun-baked land of castles, dramatic coastlines, jagged mountains, lively festivals, and proud Roman Catholic traditions. From prehistoric cave dwellers, numerous empires and invaders, to several centuries of Roman and Moorish influence, Portugal had been on the forefront of Western civilization's development for many centuries. To understand Portugal's future is to travel into the country's glorious past. Portuguese citizens fostered the Age of Discovery, inspired one of Europe's most visited pilgrimage locations, and created an emblematic staircase known throughout the country - all within a nation about the size of Indiana. Follow this podcast on an exciting journey to the four most famous sacred destinations in Portugal. </p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">&#201;vora: Spanning Many Eras</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Bel&#233;m: Age of Discovery Headquarters</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Fátima: A Vibrant Pilgrimage Destination</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Bom Jesus: A Stairway to Heaven</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Air travel to Portugal is serviced by the Portela International Airport in Lisbon, to be replaced by the new Lisbon international airport in 2017. Portela Airport is now completely surrounded by urban development, being one of the few airports in Europe located inside a major city. The country is also accessed by regular rail, ferry and public bus transportation routes. All overland routes to Portugal pass through Spain. After all, Spain is the only country Portugal borders on the Latin-influenced Iberian Peninsula.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker""><b>Getting to &#201;vora: </b>A train station was added in 1860, connecting &#201;vora to Lisbon, only a few hours away. Most people arrive by car, which is the best option for visiting the Neolithic sites in the surrounding countryside. Follow the road to Montemor-O-Novo and follow the signs to Guadalupe and the 'cromlechs of Almendres.' From there, the signs lead to Valverde and Zambujeiro. The Almendres enclosure is 8 miles (14 km) from &#201;vora near the town of Guadalupe. Branching out in another direction from Guadalupe, 4 miles (6 km) away is the Zambujeiro dolmen. Traveling west from Valverde is the Brissos chapel, constructed from the remains of a megalith. It is a short distance (5 km) from there to the Upper Paleolithic Escoural Caves, on the way to Montemor-o-Novo and back to &#201;vora. Along this route, in the village of Alto da Portela de Mogos, are two cromlechs (megalithic circles) about a mile apart. Heading from &#201;vora to Estremoz is the Dolmen do Paco das Vinhas. Other monuments are scattered in the greater &#201;vora region. Detailed road maps can be obtained at the Tourist Information Office in &#201;vora.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker""><b>Getting to Bel&#233;m: </b>The Monastery of Jer&#243;nimos and the Bel&#233;m Tower are within 1/3 mile (500 m) of each other, and 4 miles (6.5 km) west from the old city of Lisbon. Tram #15 or Bus #27 each leave regularly from Praca do Com&#233;ercio in downtown Lisbon for Bel&#233;m. The Torre de Bel&#233;m, or Bel&#233;m Tower, was built by Dom Manuel to guard the entrance to the port. It has become a symbol of Portugal and tours of both the monastery and tower are available every day. The tower is worth a look just to see the delicately arched Moorish style windows. Unlike the monastery, the interior of the tower is unremarkable.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker""><b>Getting to Fátima: </b>Located in west central Portugal, in the region of Leiria and approximately 87 miles (140 km) north-northeast of Lisbon, Fátima is a small rural village in a rocky region, whose main export is olive oil. A train runs daily from Lisbon to Chão de Ma&#231;as, 12.5 miles (20 km) outside Fátima. From there, a 30-minute bus ride takes passengers from Chão de Ma&#231;as into Fátima. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker""><b>Getting to Bom Jesus: </b>From downtown Braga, the third largest city in the country, follow the signs north 3 miles (5 km) to the base of the grand staircase. It is another half mile (.8 km) to drive the winding road to the sanctuary gardens on top. From here, it is usually easy to park and wander around the beautiful grounds, including manicured gardens and a small lake nearby the church. On weekends, this is a popular picnic destination so parking may be difficult. A city bus accesses the site regularly. There is also a pedestrian tram that runs parallel to the staircase. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.000462366a87daa929600&ll=41.046217,-8.327637&spn=4.730494,11.293945&z=7&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.000462366a87daa929600&ll=41.046217,-8.327637&spn=4.730494,11.293945&z=7&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Sacred Places Of Portugal Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",BO010028,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/sacred_places_of_portugal_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004ZRFEVE,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940012491435,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Introduction"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""&#201;vora: Spanning Many Eras"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Bel&#233;m: Age of Discovery Headquarters"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":null,""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Bom Jesus: A Stairway to Heaven"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]}]}",
Safaris In Botswana's Okavango And Chobe,"
<p>Botswana has the greatest collection of elephants in all of Africa. You can see them - along with giraffes, zebras and hippos - when you walk in the bush, or drive slowly by in a jeep. The Okavango Delta is flooded in winter, so animals flock there - great for close up observation by boat. You ride in mokoro dugout canoes two passengers with one guide. And you can combine your safari with a visit to the world's largest waterfalls in Zambia, just a short distance away...</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">First Stop: Maun</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Your Okavango Delta Safari</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Camping, a Village, & Elephants</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">For the Less Adventurous</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Nearby Victoria Falls</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The best time to go is July to September, when you will find delightfully warm days and cool nights. We found August perfect: usually you will not encounter snakes or mosquitoes at that time, but taking anti-malarial precautions is wise.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The hardest parts of this trip are the lengthy flights, which can be discouraging for some prospective travelers. You might have to endure over 37 hours of travel from North America, including long waits in airports in Johannesburg and London. Take something to read; watch the videos. Get up to exercise. Botswana is worth it!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Island-Safari made all of our travel arrangements without a hitch. But you can find many other good agencies on the web like African Gateway based in Cape Town. You can also book tours at hotels or travel agencies once you arrive in Kasane, Maun, or Livingstone.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Take dark clothes for bush treks. Bright colors, light blue, and even white might upset the wild animals. Do not wear red.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Take more digital photo memory cards than you think you will need, and preferably a zoom lens at least up to 300 mm. Animals might be too far away (or too close) so a zoom is important. For good results, you also need a camera with no shutter lag to catch fast-moving animals.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.000459027011a42fd0820&ll=-16.783506,26.30127&spn=11.468576,18.369141&z=6&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.000459027011a42fd0820&ll=-16.783506,26.30127&spn=11.468576,18.369141&z=6&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Safaris In Botswana's Okavango And Chobe Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",RM010070,audio|cd|quietguide|video,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/africa_safari_botswana_preview.pdf,http://www.youtube.com/embed/EKkmXGuyHm0,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00408A6KM,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940012489876,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Introduction"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0070BotSaf\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/BotSaf1_Intro.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0070BotSaf\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/BotSaf1_Intro.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""First Stop: Maun"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0070BotSaf\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/BotSaf2_Maun.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0070BotSaf\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/BotSaf2_Maun.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Your Okavango Delta Safari"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0070BotSaf\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/BotSaf3_OkvngDlta.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0070BotSaf\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/BotSaf3_OkvngDlta.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Camping, a Village, & Elephants"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0070BotSaf\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/BotSaf4_Camping.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0070BotSaf\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/BotSaf4_Camping.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""For the Less Adventurous"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0070BotSaf\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/BotSaf5_LssAdvntr.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0070BotSaf\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/BotSaf5_LssAdvntr.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Nearby Victoria Falls"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0070BotSaf\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/BotSaf6_VictrFalls.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0070BotSaf\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/BotSaf6_VictrFalls.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]}]}","Introduction:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0070BotSaf/mp3/BotSaf1_Intro.mp3|First Stop: Maun:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0070BotSaf/mp3/BotSaf2_Maun.mp3|Your Okavango Delta Safari:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0070BotSaf/mp3/BotSaf3_OkvngDlta.mp3|Camping, a Village, & Elephants:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0070BotSaf/mp3/BotSaf4_Camping.mp3|For the Less Adventurous:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0070BotSaf/mp3/BotSaf5_LssAdvntr.mp3|Nearby Victoria Falls:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0070BotSaf/mp3/BotSaf6_VictrFalls.mp3|"
San Francisco's Academy Of Sciences,"<p>One night in 1853, only three years after California became a state, seven men assembled in a candle-lit room in San Francisco and founded the first scientific institution west of the Atlantic seaboard. The venerable Academy of Sciences was newly rebuilt in 2008: Bay Area residents and tourists alike enjoy this world-class museum, which is located in Golden Gate Park. Inside, visitors will marvel at the deepest coral reef aquarium in the world, a four-story tropical rainforest dome, a towering T-rex skeleton, a colony of African penguins, a fully-immersive digital planetarium, and the many other exciting venues, exhibits and animals to be discovered within the Academy.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Inside the SF Academy</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Steinhart Aquarium</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Theaters & Domes</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Natural History Museum</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Living Roof Surroundings</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>

San Francisco's Ferry Building And Embarcadero,"San Francisco's landmark Ferry Building has been welcoming visitors to the 'City by the Bay' for more than 100 years. With its recent transformation into a foodie mecca, thousands again walk its grand halls, enjoying shops and restaurants that celebrate the bounty of northern California.

Santa Barbara Waterfront,"<p>A two-hour drive from Los Angeles, North on the 101 Coast Highway, brings you to Santa Barbara's Waterfront, a wonderful place to visit! The historic Stearns Wharf boasts casual and fine dining, shopping, and the Ty Warner Sea Center, which is great for family fun. The Maritime Museum is housed in the former Santa Barbara Naval Reserve Center, and has a working periscope, dive equipment displays, local maritime artifacts, a children's learning center, and a rooftop visitor's center with a great view of the harbor. Sea Landing, off the marina, offers tour boats, sport fishing, and rentals.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Santa Barbara Waterfront</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Waterfront Visitor Center</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Historic Stearns Wharf</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Ty Warner Sea Center</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Harbor & Sea Landing</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Maritime Museum</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Avoid bare feet or wearing high heels on Stearns Wharf because of the uneven wooden surface, splinters, and numerous knot holes. You'll also want to dress in layers, use sun screen, and tie down your hat.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Santa Barbara's Breakwater is a concrete pedestrian walkway and protective seawall that provides a great way to view the harbor on one side and sailboats on the other. Sometimes waves splash up and over the wall. Don't forget to duck!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">To see what Santa Barbara has to offer, start your visit with a 90-minute Trolley Tour. Passes are valid all day. Second consecutive day and re-boarding are free. You get the tour, loads of discounts, and free stuff with every ticket. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you're on Stearns Wharf and want to visit the Harbor (or vice versa) but don't feel like walking, take the water taxi. Lil' Toot is a fun ride and a harbor mini-tour at the same time.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">You can take the Downtown-Waterfront Electric Shuttle for just a quarter. If you want a free transfer between the Downtown and Waterfront shuttles, be sure to ask for it upon boarding. Fares are one way.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00046e0f230636707a451&ll=34.410238,-119.693255&spn=0.022837,0.055747&z=15&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00046e0f230636707a451&ll=34.410238,-119.693255&spn=0.022837,0.055747&z=15&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Santa Barbara Waterfront Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",ST010208,audio|cd|quietguide|video,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/santa_barbara_waterfront_tour_preview.pdf,http://www.youtube.com/embed/iQJBkWaCNio,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0041VXTL6,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940012423450,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Santa Barbara Waterfront"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0208SBWtrfnt\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SBWtrfnt1_Waterfront.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0208SBWtrfnt\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SBWtrfnt1_Waterfront.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Waterfront Visitor Center"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0208SBWtrfnt\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SBWtrfnt2_VstrCntr.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0208SBWtrfnt\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SBWtrfnt2_VstrCntr.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Historic Stearns Wharf"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0208SBWtrfnt\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SBWtrfnt3_StrnsWhrf.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0208SBWtrfnt\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SBWtrfnt3_StrnsWhrf.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Ty Warner Sea Center"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0208SBWtrfnt\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SBWtrfnt4_TyWrnrCntr.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0208SBWtrfnt\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SBWtrfnt4_TyWrnrCntr.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Harbor & Sea Landing"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0208SBWtrfnt\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SBWtrfnt5_HrbrLndng.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0208SBWtrfnt\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SBWtrfnt5_HrbrLndng.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""The Maritime Museum"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0208SBWtrfnt\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SBWtrfnt6_MrtmMuseum.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0208SBWtrfnt\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SBWtrfnt6_MrtmMuseum.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]}]}",Santa Barbara Waterfront:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0208SBWtrfnt/mp3/SBWtrfnt1_Waterfront.mp3|Waterfront Visitor Center:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0208SBWtrfnt/mp3/SBWtrfnt2_VstrCntr.mp3|Historic Stearns Wharf:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0208SBWtrfnt/mp3/SBWtrfnt3_StrnsWhrf.mp3|Ty Warner Sea Center:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0208SBWtrfnt/mp3/SBWtrfnt4_TyWrnrCntr.mp3|Harbor & Sea Landing:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0208SBWtrfnt/mp3/SBWtrfnt5_HrbrLndng.mp3|The Maritime Museum:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0208SBWtrfnt/mp3/SBWtrfnt6_MrtmMuseum.mp3|
Santa Barbara: From The Mission To The Wharf," <p>Chumash Indians populated this area before the conquistador Ortega arrived in 1796. He must have thought he had found paradise itself! Known as the 'American Riviera,' Santa Barbara is beloved for its temperate weather - nearly 75 degrees year round - and for the sapphire ocean and caramel mountains that provide a spectacular natural backdrop. The red tile roofs and gleaming arches are symbols of the prevalent Spanish colonial architecture: here, of course, enhanced with the ubiquitous Santa Barbara charm! Come along on this three-mile walk that takes you from 'The Queen of the Missions' to the historic, wood-planked Stearns Wharf.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Welcome to Santa Barbara-The American Riviera</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Santa Barbara Mission & Rose Garden</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Arlington Theatre & Granada Theatre</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Courthouse, Hill-Carrillo Adobe, & Lobero Theatre</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">El Presidio, Lugo, Orena & Casa de la Guerra Adobes</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">State Street & Stearns Wharf</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Visiting Santa Barbara? Bring along a bathing suit, sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat. But don't forget a warmer wrap for those cool evening nights. Santa Barbara's sizzle by day turns into gentle, cool breezes at night.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">This area is rich with Spanish and Mexican history. Give yourself a quick lesson in Alta California, Padre Serra, Jose Francisco de Ortega, and the De la Guerra family before your visit. Google them for brief information and overviews. Your visit downtown will be that much richer if you do. Or, stop by the Historical Museum for more information.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Woven within the historical downtown area is a plethora of upscale boutiques and national retailers. It makes for a wonderful mix of historic with modern, and cultural pursuits with retail therapy.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Downtown/Waterfront Electric Shuttle makes an excellent alternative form of transportation for those who don't want to walk the downtown area. The Shuttle is very inexpensive and travels frequently from the downtown area to the Wharf.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Santa Barbara definitely has a beach style and that means almost nowhere will you find someone in a suit, unless you visit the Courthouse during weekday hours. So just bring casual clothes.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00045a5af495fcfe56180&z=14&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00045a5af495fcfe56180&z=14&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Santa Barbara: From The Mission To The Wharf Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",NS010001,audio|cd|quietguide|video,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/santa_barbara_tour_from_the_mission_thru_downtown_to_the_wharf_preview.pdf,http://www.youtube.com/embed/G9rEB_hOmlc,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004GHNDB6,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940012520500,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Welcome to Santa Barbara-The American Riviera"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0001SB2Wharf\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SBMissionWharf1_Welcome.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0001SB2Wharf\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SBMissionWharf1_Welcome.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Santa Barbara Mission & Rose Garden"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0001SB2Wharf\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SBMissionWharf2_RoseGrdn.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0001SB2Wharf\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SBMissionWharf2_RoseGrdn.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Arlington Theatre & Granada Theatre"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0001SB2Wharf\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SBMissionWharf3_Theaters.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0001SB2Wharf\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SBMissionWharf3_Theaters.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Courthouse, Hill-Carrillo Adobe, & Lobero Theatre"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0001SB2Wharf\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SBMissionWharf4_CrtHs.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0001SB2Wharf\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SBMissionWharf4_CrtHs.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""El Presidio, Lugo, Orena & Casa de la Guerra Adobes"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0001SB2Wharf\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SBMissionWharf5_ElPrsdio.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0001SB2Wharf\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SBMissionWharf5_ElPrsdio.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""State Street & Stearns Wharf"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0001SB2Wharf\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SBMissionWharf6_StearnsWhf.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0001SB2Wharf\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SBMissionWharf6_StearnsWhf.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]}]}","Welcome to Santa Barbara-The American Riviera:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0001SB2Wharf/mp3/SBMissionWharf1_Welcome.mp3|Santa Barbara Mission & Rose Garden:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0001SB2Wharf/mp3/SBMissionWharf2_RoseGrdn.mp3|Arlington Theatre & Granada Theatre:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0001SB2Wharf/mp3/SBMissionWharf3_Theaters.mp3|Courthouse, Hill-Carrillo Adobe, & Lobero Theatre:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0001SB2Wharf/mp3/SBMissionWharf4_CrtHs.mp3|El Presidio, Lugo, Orena & Casa de la Guerra Adobes:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0001SB2Wharf/mp3/SBMissionWharf5_ElPrsdio.mp3|State Street & Stearns Wharf:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0001SB2Wharf/mp3/SBMissionWharf6_StearnsWhf.mp3|"
"Santa Fe, New Mexico: Culture Fusion","A long and colorful history, coupled with cutting-edge art, makes Santa Fe unlike any other place on the globe. Native people with roots in ancient Puebloan cultures mingle with Hispanic people, who brought silversmithing, colorful cloth, and picturesque adobe missions to this sunny valley over 400 years ago. Europeans come to buy directly from American Indian artisans. They stroll through galleries of original Georgia O'Keeffe paintings, capture photos of historic Spanish missions, or sup on sumptuous cuisine - flavored with chilies, corn, and chocolate.

You can find it in the new Railyard District just minutes from the Plaza. Go Green and support local farmers and merchants who bring their wares to the city from nearby farms and orchards. Buying local food reduces your own carbon footprint!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Explore the most-visited art museum in New Mexico. Friday nights, 5-8pm, there is free admission to galleries in the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum. Locals recommend dining beneath the 150-year-old tree at the adjacent O'Keeffe Caf&#233;. The eclectic contemporary cuisine of Strasbourg-born Chef Laurent Rea compliments the mementos of O'Keeffe's diverse life that are displayed on the walls inside.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Ride the convenient 'M' bus between Museum Hill and the Santa Fe Plaza, and enjoy an inspiring look at the city's distinctive neighborhoods.

Sausalito features a three-acre model miniature ocean, rebuilt speakeasies, a fort/resort, and a kids' outdoor Discovery Museum...plus houseboats, restaurants, marinas, coves, and much, much more...</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Sausalito Visitor Center & History Exhibit</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Downtown & the Waterfront</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Climbing Into the 'Banana Belt' </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Marinship & the Massive Bay Model</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Fort Baker, Discovery Museum & New Resort</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Bring extra clothes on the ferry. The famed San Francisco fog isn't a myth, and the Bay crossing, while only 30 minutes, can be nippy. Bring a sun hat too, just in case I'm wrong.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">This is a great cycling destination: start in San Francisco, go through the Golden Gate Park, across the bridge, and down the hill past the Visitor's Center. You can return with the bike by ferry, but be careful in Sausalito: blundering cyclists will be ticketed!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Check the ferryboats to see if they give transfers to Fisherman's Wharf when you return to San Francisco. If you push the transfer button you get to ride the fancy bus!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Got an extra day in SF? Take one of the same ferryboats to Tiburon for a few hours of walking, shopping, and dining. Proceed to Angel Island to see the old fort and/or hike the island. There is no charge to bring your bicycle. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Caledonia Street in Sausalito, a block uphill from the seaside Police Department, is a fun street with excellent restaurants, a first-rate movie house, and the library/city hall in an old school building!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00046a7232d719fdc5298&ll=37.866587,-122.482967&spn=0.073992,0.143509&z=13&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00046a7232d719fdc5298&ll=37.866587,-122.482967&spn=0.073992,0.143509&z=13&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Sausalito: San Francisco's Favorite Getaway Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",GB010102,audio|cd|quietguide|video,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/sausalito_tour_preview.pdf,http://www.youtube.com/embed/Wor9XXZhBr4,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0041T58GM,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940012202161,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Introduction"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0102SausFav\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SausFav1_Intro.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0102SausFav\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SausFav1_Intro.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Sausalito Visitor Center & History Exhibit"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0102SausFav\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SausFav2_VisCntr.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0102SausFav\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SausFav2_VisCntr.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Downtown & the Waterfront"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0102SausFav\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SausFav3_Dwntwn.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0102SausFav\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SausFav3_Dwntwn.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Climbing Into the 'Banana Belt' "",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0102SausFav\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SausFav4_Banana.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0102SausFav\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SausFav4_Banana.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Marinship & the Massive Bay Model"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0102SausFav\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SausFav5_BayMdl.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0102SausFav\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SausFav5_BayMdl.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Fort Baker, Discovery Museum & New Resort"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0102SausFav\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SausFav6_DiscMsm.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0102SausFav\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SausFav6_DiscMsm.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]}]}","Introduction:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0102SausFav/mp3/SausFav1_Intro.mp3|Sausalito Visitor Center & History Exhibit:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0102SausFav/mp3/SausFav2_VisCntr.mp3|Downtown & the Waterfront:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0102SausFav/mp3/SausFav3_Dwntwn.mp3|Climbing Into the 'Banana Belt' :http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0102SausFav/mp3/SausFav4_Banana.mp3|Marinship & the Massive Bay Model:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0102SausFav/mp3/SausFav5_BayMdl.mp3|Fort Baker, Discovery Museum & New Resort:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0102SausFav/mp3/SausFav6_DiscMsm.mp3|"
Seattle: Gem Of The Northwest,"Seattle is nestled between the Puget Sound and Lake Washington. Although the Space Needle makes the city skyline recognizable, on a clear day you can see from the Cascade Mountains to the Olympic Range. This is a city dedicated to bringing beauty, nature, and artwork to the urban landscape. You can see this everywhere in the local markets, numerous museums and public displays of artwork. Seattle has ignited musical revolutions, television and cinematic fame, as well as computer genius. On this tour we'll see iconic landmarks, fabulous shopping, architectural marvels, historic buildings, and even a park that sits atop the freeway. <!--EndFragment--><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Seattle Center: Home of the Space Needle & Much More</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Downtown Seattle: Shopping, Art, and a Freeway Park</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Downtown Library: Like it or not, this Building is Amazing.</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Pioneer Square: The Nation's Largest Historic District</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Pike Place Market: </li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Dress in layers; the weather is fickle. Seattle has earned its wet reputation due to frequent overcast days. The rain is often light and short. Seattleites will skip the umbrella for a hooded jacket. If you want to blend in with the locals, walk around like you don't even notice the drizzle.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you get lost in historic Seattle, check out the closest manhole cover. Chances are it's a map of the city. The silver dot is your current location.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Wear comfortable shoes. Seattle is much hillier than most out-of-towners expect.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">You can ride free on the public buses from 6am-7pm in the designated downtown area, just be prepared with proper change if you should stay on the bus outside the free zone.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you have the time, catch a Washington State ferry to one of the nearby islands.

Sedona: Center Of Arizona's Red Rock Country,"<p>Sedona is a year-round vacation destination tucked into a national forest about 100 miles south of the Grand Canyon. More than four million visitors tour this picturesque little town each year, some as day trippers, but most as overnight guests at one of the world-class resorts or delightful inns. In addition to the amazing red-rock scenery, which is much like that of the Grand Canyon, the area features nationally-protected ancient Native American sites, miles of marked multi-use trails, dozens of upscale art galleries and shops, and a variety of restaurants serving regional and international dishes in all price ranges.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Sedona Snapshots</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">All-American Road</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Famous, Bizarre, & Fun</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Cruising Main Street</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Schnebly & the Canyon </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Western Highlights</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Sedona is considered high desert and sits at an elevation of about 4,500 feet. Humidity is low, and most days are sunny, with rare, fast-melting snow in winter and brief-but-heavy rain on summer afternoons. Desert air cools quickly after sunset, so bring a sweater or jacket to wear in the evening, even in summer, and pack a hat and sunblock year-round.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Pick up a Red Rock Pass at visitor centers or ranger stations, and remember to place it in the front window of your car any time you park within the national forest. Daily passes cost about $5, weekly passes are $15 and include some extra perks, and the fee for an annual pass is around $20. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Don't touch anything when visiting delicate Native American ruins, and stay on the marked path when you hike or bike in public forest or wilderness areas. Ancient ruins are irreplaceable and fragile. Soil crust is a living ground cover that takes decades to develop and is an essential support for high-desert plants. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you stay in Sedona for more than a few hours, you'll hear a lot about vortexes, and you can say either vortexes or vortices. Most people say vortexes, like saying 'indexes' instead of 'indices,' though both pronunciations are correct. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Got an extra day in Sedona? Take a 20-mile drive west to Jerome, a historic mining town built on the slope of Cleopatra Hill, which is now an artists' community with a population of about 450, some of them ghosts.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.000474bb2b69d3f9860a9&ll=34.86706,-111.757393&spn=0.185352,0.445976&z=10&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.000474bb2b69d3f9860a9&ll=34.86706,-111.757393&spn=0.185352,0.445976&z=10&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Sedona: Center Of Arizona's Red Rock Country Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",LS090250,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/sedona_arizona_red_rock_country_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0084UB8CM,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940014432986,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Sedona Snapshots"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""All-American Road"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Famous, Bizarre, & Fun"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Cruising Main Street"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Schnebly & the Canyon "",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Western Highlights"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]}]}",
"St. Augustine, Florida: America's Oldest City","<p>For a romantic getaway, a girlfriend weekend or a fun family vacation, think St. Augustine! Brimming with international character, history, art, attractions, great dining and more than a few ghosts, a visit to America's oldest city is like going to Spain - without the jet lag! Located on the Atlantic coast just south of Jacksonville, and easily accessible by car or air, this city offers everything from a luxury retreat to budget-friendly options. If you are tired of theme park vacations, you will find the reality of narrow brick streets, ancient buildings and international dining to be a refreshing change.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">St. Augustine, America's Oldest City</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Visitor Center & Spanish Quarter</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Plaza & Old Town</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Lincolnville & Flagler's St. Augustine</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Bayfront & Castillo de San Marcos</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Beyond the Old City</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Arrive at Flagler College at 10am or 2pm for a free tour of the college's public areas, including the rotunda, the parlor and the dining hall with its Tiffany windows and furnishings. Tours are student-led, so tipping is appreciated.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">At the Alligator Farm Zoological Park, many of the animals are very close (in fenced pens), and to an alligator, food is food. Don't reach into the pens, and make sure small children don't poke their fingers through the fence.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Many visitors are surprised by the heat and humidity of a Florida summer, so take the usual precautions of sunscreen, a hat and a bottle of water. The occasional ice cream stop helps, too!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Golfers may want to take the short drive north on I-95 to the World Golf Hall of Fame.

Sun Coast: Where Rio Vacations,"Just a stone's throw east of Rio lies a trio of towns, each unique, and each with its own treasures to offer. From the tiny fishing village of Arraial do Cabo take a boat tour to the Blue Grotto and to beaches that you will remember the rest of your life. In Cabo Frio, stroll along the 7-kilometer stretch of squeaky clean white-sand beach and perch on the parapet of a 400-year-old fort. In pretty and chic little B&#250;zios, discovered by Brigitte Bardot in the 1960s, shop, dine, and dance the night away. Then explore the incredible array of beaches. The Sun Coast offers the perfect complement to big-city Rio, which is why Cariocas vacation here. Come discover their secret getaway.

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">March and April are excellent months to visit the Sun Coast (and also Rio). The crowds have left, but the weather is still fine. June through August is low season, with rooms easy to find at good rates. But during the December to February high season, don't come without a confirmed reservation. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The easiest way to get to the Sun Coast is to arrange for a van pick-up from your hotel. Prices vary, but expect to pay about 50 to 60 reais per person, one way. You can also catch a bus to B&#250;zios or Cabo Frio from the Novo Rio bus terminal in Rio for between 26 and 30 reais each way. Go to the counter for bus line 1001 (Um Mil e Um). </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">In Cabo Frio, cabs are metered. In B&#250;zios and Arraial most cabs are not, but charge according to a fixed, published rate schedule. Some bargaining may be possible, but drivers tend to stick to the schedule. Ask the fare in advance to avoid any misunderstandings. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">In B&#250;zios you can easily navigate the streets of the center city. However, to see the many scattered beaches you should either join a boat tour or hire a guide with a car. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Credit cards are more generally accepted these days in Brazil, but many smaller establishments still don't take them, or accept only one type. MasterCard seems to be the most widely accepted, followed by Visa. If you plan to pay with a card, verify in advance that it is accepted. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.0004720f868367211787d&ll=-22.837579,-42.024078&spn=0.416394,0.8741&z=11&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.0004720f868367211787d&ll=-22.837579,-42.024078&spn=0.416394,0.8741&z=11&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Sun Coast: Where Rio Vacations Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",JC020227,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/brazils_sun_coast_where_rio_vacations_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0084F56FC,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940014429931,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Where Rio Vacations"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Arraial do Cabo"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Cabo Frio Beach & Fort"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Cabo Frio Canal "",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Buzios Town"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Buzios Beaches by Car"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Buzios Beaches by Boat"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]}]}",
Surf's Up In Santa Cruz,"<p>To simply call Santa Cruz 'Surf City,' the municipal nickname, would diminish all the other unique aspects of this funky town. Santa Cruz is indeed a charming seaside village with a century-old beachside amusement park called the Boardwalk, but Santa Cruz also features a large municipal pier, a city harbor, a vast network of bike trails, several state parks and beaches, and an ultra-liberal university situated within a redwood forest! To call Santa Cruz one-of-a-kind would not in any way be considered pretentious or untrue!

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Tourism is one of the main industries in Santa Cruz. Attractions include the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk fronting Cowell Beach, the redwood forests near the university, and picturesque Monterey Bay, which is protected as a marine sanctuary. Most tours of the bay embark at the municipal wharf, but some also leave from the harbor. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">High Season is from Memorial Day to Labor Day, meaning the congestion gets worse and the prices go up.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The downtown area is about 1/2 mile away from the boardwalk and wharf. Downtown consists of Pacific Avenue and adjacent Front and Center Streets. This area is known for its locally-owned shops and eateries, and is very pedestrian-friendly. It is recommended that you park and walk.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Better yet, bring or rent a bicycle! Santa Cruz has an extensive network of bike lanes and bike paths. Most major roads have bike lanes, and wide bike lanes were recently installed on Beach Street, near the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk. Additionally, there are levee bike paths along the San Lorenzo River.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Santa Cruz has 5 greenbelt districts, including Arana Gulch, Lighthouse Field, Moore Creek, Neary Lagoon, and Pogonip, a city-run park and open space adjacent to the University of California, Santa Cruz. If you have extra time, be sure to visit any of the greenbelt districts. Pogonip is especially nice, featuring second-growth redwoods, expansive meadows, several streams, and many intersecting hiking trails.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Santa+Cruz,+California&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.0004888d02e67e020a3fa&ll=36.989254,-122.056046&spn=0.06938,0.222473&z=13&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Santa+Cruz,+California&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.0004888d02e67e020a3fa&ll=36.989254,-122.056046&spn=0.06938,0.222473&z=13&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Surf's Up In Santa Cruz Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",BO010280,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/santa_cruz_tour_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004TGUXY4,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940012367631,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Santa Cruz: Surf City USA"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Downtown Funky Town"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""The Wharf & Surf Culture"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""The Historic Boardwalk"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Ultra-Liberal UCSC"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]}]}",

Tampa Gone Wild,"Wildlife attractions are some of the key reasons that Tampa is a vacation mecca. Busch Gardens is the city's most visited site, and we will start there.

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Busch Gardens and Lowry Park Zoo are the two largest attractions. It is advisable not to try to do both on the same day. Actually, if you have the time, each attraction makes a nice day's outing. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>

Temple Square And Downtown Salt Lake City,"<p>Many people hear 'Salt Lake City' and think immediately of the Mormon church. The city is indeed the headquarters of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, and Temple Square downtown offers a fascinating glimpse into this fast-growing faith. Yet Salt Lake is much more - state capital, recreation hub, and a major center of business, arts, and sports in the Mountain West. Salt Lake City welcomed the world when it hosted the Winter Olympic Games in 2002. Now it's your turn to take a look! </p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Temple Square </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The State Capitol Area</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Downtown</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Foothill Cultural District </li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Salt Lake City has excellent public transportation. Buses and light rail criss-cross the town, and even lead up into the ski areas. There's also a free fare zone downtown. Check routes and schedules online, or view schedules at one of the bus or light rail stations downtown.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Many businesses are closed on Sunday in SLC, more so than in most other major cities. This is especially true of restaurants and other locally-owned establishments.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you have the time, don't miss a chance to experience the gorgeous alpine scenery of the Wasatch Range. From downtown, you can be in the mountains within a half hour. Roads lead up Big and Little Cottonwood Canyons on the east side of the city. During ski season, you can even travel by city bus! </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Drink plenty of water during your visit. SLC sits at an elevation of 4,226 feet and has an arid climate, so it's very easy to get dehydrated here.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Despite what you may have heard, Utah has relaxed its regulations about alcohol in the last few years. It's easy to get a drink in a restaurant or bar in the city, and 'memberships' are no longer required. But you still can only purchase bottles of liquor and wine at a state-run liquor store. They are closed on Sundays. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.0004844a7aae68e1e208a&ll=40.769882,-111.855755&spn=0.042512,0.097418&z=13&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.0004844a7aae68e1e208a&ll=40.769882,-111.855755&spn=0.042512,0.097418&z=13&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Temple Square And Downtown Salt Lake City Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",TL040266,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/salt_lake_city_tour_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0091ZGQMG,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940015218466,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Introduction"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Temple Square "",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""The State Capitol Area"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Downtown"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""The Foothill Cultural District "",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]}]}",
"The Allure Of Alicante, Spain","<p>From culture vultures to beach babes, there is something for everyone in Alicante, the heart of the Costa Blanca in Spain. In this visual travel tour you will get to see some of the city's top attractions such as the Santa Barbara castle with its magnificent panoramic views, plus travel across the Mediterranean to Tabarca Island. We'll also unearth some lesser known little secrets and gems, showing how Alicante really is a jewel in the Spanish crown.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Star-Spotting From the Word Go!</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Heavenly Harbor</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Snorkeler's Paradise: Tabarca Island</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Santa Barbara Castle</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Old Quarter</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">All the Fun of the Fiesta</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">As with most Spanish cities, Alicante loves its siesta, so many places close from 2 to 4 or 5 pm. In the summer months, a lot of banks and municipal buildings are only open in the morning.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">You will find a 'Calle Mayor' in most Spanish cities, which can be confusing because on a map they may have a different name. The 'Calle Mayor' is simply the main road in a town or city.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">For shopping, head to the Calle Mayor's top boutique outlets, or to El Corte Ingl&#233;s, Spain's favorite (and largest) department store. Alternatively, Alicante has numerous shopping malls, which are open all day and are easily reached - within minutes in a car or taxi - from the harbor area.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you take this walking tour of Miami's South Beach in the summer, I suggest you do it in the morning or evening. Only mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun. Wear a sun hat and take sunscreen.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Though this South Beach walk in Miami Beach will take only 30 minutes, it doesn't include stopping and staring, entering buildings and museums, pausing for beverages or snacks. This 30-minute tour can easily stretch into half a day, so be sure to allow for this.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">To go all around South Beach (Florida) by bus, look for the South Beach Local. It runs every 10 to 15 minutes and circles the entire historical district in about 45 minutes, all for one shiny quarter.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">One of the highlights of this South Beach (Florida) stroll is to enter some of the lobbies of the Art Deco hotels. In order to do this, you must 'dress the part.' This won't work if you appear like something the cat just dragged in.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">This walking tour in South Beach (Florida) can also be taken after dark. The whole route is well illuminated, even the beachwalk section. You will then see the wonderful lighting effects of the Art Deco hotels along Ocean Drive and perhaps end your walk in a lively night club.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00046157f67e628e00b6b&ll=25.809937,-80.114536&spn=0.084377,0.143509&z=13&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00046157f67e628e00b6b&ll=25.809937,-80.114536&spn=0.084377,0.143509&z=13&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">The Art Deco Historical District Of Florida's South Beach Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",MC020074,audio|cd|quietguide|video,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/south_beach_art_deco_tour_preview.pdf,http://www.youtube.com/embed/-uPiOd4KbnA,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0041T58TY,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940012452818,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Introduction"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0074SBchDeco\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SBchDeco1_Intro.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0074SBchDeco\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SBchDeco1_Intro.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""A Dollop of History"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0074SBchDeco\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SBchDeco2_Hstry.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0074SBchDeco\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SBchDeco2_Hstry.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""North of Lincoln Road"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0074SBchDeco\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SBchDeco3_NLcnRd.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0074SBchDeco\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SBchDeco3_NLcnRd.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Lincoln Road to the Post Office"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0074SBchDeco\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SBchDeco4_Lcn2PO.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0074SBchDeco\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SBchDeco4_Lcn2PO.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Post Office to the Beach"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0074SBchDeco\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SBchDeco5_PO2Bch.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0074SBchDeco\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SBchDeco5_PO2Bch.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Ocean Drive (Deco Drive)"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0074SBchDeco\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SBchDeco6_OceanDr.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0074SBchDeco\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SBchDeco6_OceanDr.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]}]}",Introduction:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0074SBchDeco/mp3/SBchDeco1_Intro.mp3|A Dollop of History:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0074SBchDeco/mp3/SBchDeco2_Hstry.mp3|North of Lincoln Road:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0074SBchDeco/mp3/SBchDeco3_NLcnRd.mp3|Lincoln Road to the Post Office:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0074SBchDeco/mp3/SBchDeco4_Lcn2PO.mp3|Post Office to the Beach:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0074SBchDeco/mp3/SBchDeco5_PO2Bch.mp3|Ocean Drive (Deco Drive):http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0074SBchDeco/mp3/SBchDeco6_OceanDr.mp3|
The Beaten And Off-Beat Paths In Prague,"<p>Prague is bisected by the Vltava River and layered with amazing Gothic, Baroque, and Art Nouveau details. The cobbled streets are favorites of tourists, happily shopping for Bohemian crystal and souvenirs.

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Buy a tram ticket from a Trafika kiosk. See Prague's most famous sights from trams 22 or 23. Start at the National Theatre and get off at Belveder or Prague Castle.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Prague and beer go hand in hand. Sample Pilsner Urquell, Krusovice, Gambrinus, Kozel, Staropramen, and Budweiser Budvar in a traditional pivovar or beer garden.

The Everest Himalaya,"<p>From lush, forested valleys to barren glaciers, trekking in the Everest Himalaya offers beauty and wonder in its most extreme forms. The tour begins with the flight from Kathmandu and continues to the sacred lakes of Gokyo, the high mountain pass of Cho La, and culminates in a visit to Everest Base Camp itself. This landscape ranges from surreal to jaw-dropping, and is unlike any other place on earth. Moderate fitness and great willpower are the most essential ingredients for trekking through rarefied air, in the shadow of 'the roof of the world.'</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction & Overview</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Lukla to Namche Bazaar</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Sacred Lakes of Gokyo</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Cho La Pass</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Base Camp & Kala Pattar</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Tengboche & the Return</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Wake up with the sunrise and begin each day early to take advantage of the finest weather and clearest view to the peaks. It also helps to dodge the blazing sunlight of midday and put you into each day's destination early, which means more time to explore!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Carry more local currency than you think you'll need. Exchanging foreign bills is difficult in remote locations, and you'll be glad to be able to treat yourself to a tall beer at the end of the tougher days. And don't expect credit cards to buy you anything beyond the airport!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Your feet are your livelihood up there, so pack athletic wraps or ankle braces on the off-chance that the rough trails do some damage to your joints. Also, invest in strong-soled boots or trail runners, preferably waterproof, for trekking through snow and over jagged rocks.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Pack clothes that layer easily - different sized sweaters and close-fitting shirts that can be removed easily. The temperatures range from hot to freezing depending on the sunlight, and you'll want to adjust easily. Invest in a down or synthetic down jacket that compresses well and will keep you comfy at night and in the windier heights.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>

The Feather River Scenic Byway,"The Feather River Byway is packed with the scenic wonders of a deep river canyon, including thundering waterfalls, brilliant fall colors, and festive wildflowers. The natural beauty, combined with the man-made wonders of powerhouses, tunnels, and train tracks snaking along the canyon sides, make this one of the more breathtaking drives in California. We begin in the city of Oroville, where luxury hotels and a casino neighbor Lake Oroville and the largest earthen dam in the United States.

"The Magic Kingdom With Disabilities, WDW","<p>The Magic Kingdom, and all of Walt Disney World, offers a streamlined system of disability access. Yet the sheer range of options and the size of the park can be overwhelming. In this tour, a former Cast Member will teach you to navigate the Magic Kingdom like a pro, providing the information you need to make the best choices. Along the way, you will learn a great deal of history and behind the scenes secrets not always revealed to the general public. You will also discover insider tips to stay ahead of the crowds and minimize costs while maximizing excitement.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Arriving / Main Street</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Adventure / Frontier</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Liberty / Fantasy / Toon</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Tomorrowland</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Magic Kingdom After Dark</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Magic Kingdom is able to accommodate a wide variety of dietary needs. Ask to speak with the chef at any restaurant to make special requests, or call ahead to 407-WDW-DINE and speak with a dietician, who will help you plan a customized menu for your entire stay.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Electrical outlets are plentiful at both indoor and outdoor locations. However, they may be hard to spot. Ask any Cast Member to point out a nearby outlet.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Central Florida weather can be extremely hot, rainy, or surprisingly cold. Dress in layers and always bring a rain poncho or umbrella. Also be sure to use sunscreen even on cloudy days, as the sun is quite intense.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Magic Kingdom was built in 1971, long before the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990. Existing attractions were retrofitted for disability access, so it is important to ask a Cast Member for queuing and boarding instructions at each attraction.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Table-service dining is excellent, but can be pricey. Lunch prices are significantly lower than dinner prices, and the menu is generally similar.

The Maine Attraction,"<p>Ask someone about Maine and they'll likely tell you what the state is famous for: its lobsters and its scenery. Well, the lobster population has declined recently, but the jagged, rocky coastline and low, rolling mountains are still wonderful to behold, any time of year. First, this tour will take us to the charming town of Bethel in western Maine. Next we'll venture into the untamed interior, before heading to the famous coast. Then we'll explore the capital, Augusta, and the largest city, Portland.

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Sometimes booking a room or activities can be difficult during high season - late June until Labor Day in early September. We recommend making reservations at least a month in advance if you are traveling during this time. The same applies to the shoulder season, when visitors come in search of fall colors or winter skiing.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The town of Bethel is close to the White Mountain ski resorts and wilderness areas, has an 18-hole golf course, and available outdoor activities. Only a mile out of town is 'Maine Mineralogy Expeditions,' for tours of actual mine excavations. The partner business is 'Bethel Outdoor Adventure and Campground.' Here you can find canoe, kayak and tube rentals for use on the Androscoggin River.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Mount Katahdin is located in Baxter State Park, in Piscataquis County near the town of Millinocket. The Park is about 26 miles (42 km) west of Interstate 95. The hike up the tallest peak in Maine is described by Park literature as 'strenuous,' but can be done round-trip in a day by fit climbers who set out early. Mount Katahdin is both the northern terminus of the Appalachian Trail, which extends to Springer Mountain, Georgia, and the soon-to-be-completed southern terminus of the new International Appalachian Trail, which will run to Belle Isle, Newfoundland and Labrador.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Maine is a very popular tourist destination, but it also experiences long and cold winters, and consequently, the great temporary influx of visitors occurs during the warmer months. Many of these seasonal visitors establish an alternate secondary residence in Maine during the warmer months and then depart for their primary residence in the off-season. These are the 'summer people' of Maine lore.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Interstate 95 runs diagonally through Maine, connected to the easterly route of I-295. In addition, U.S. Route 1 starts in Fort Kent, Maine, and runs south all the way to Florida. The eastern terminus of the eastern section of U.S. Route 2 starts in Houlton, near the New Brunswick, Canada border to Rouses Point, New York, at US 11. Route 2, Route 6 and Route 9 are often used by motorists of the Maritime Provinces en route to other destinations in the United States, or as a shortcut to Quebec Province, Canada.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00046e4d784c14d58e391&ll=44.43378,-70.697021&spn=2.506353,7.13562&z=7&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00046e4d784c14d58e391&ll=44.43378,-70.697021&spn=2.506353,7.13562&z=7&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">The Maine Attraction Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",BO010237,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/the_maine_attraction_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00AI2UN9I,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940015826579,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Stroll Down Maine Street"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Bliss of Bethel"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Northwood Adventures"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""York by the Sea"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Augusta Archives"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Old Portland "",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]}]}",
The National Recreation Areas Of San Francisco,"
<p>The Golden Gate National Recreation Area is one of the most visited National Parks in the United States, hosting over 13 million visitors per year. It is also one of the largest urban parks in the world with a size almost 3 times that of the consolidated city and county of San Francisco, where much of the developed park resides. This tour through the GGNRA will include units within the city of San Francisco: the historic Presidio, Maritime Museum and Fort Mason, along with the wilderness regions of Lands End, Ocean Beach, and Fort Funston.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Beaches of San Francisco</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Fort Mason & the Maritime Museum </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Presidio: Where Civil War Meets Silicon Valley</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Land's End & the Cliff House</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Flying at Fort Funston </li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">In addition to the beaches and parkland, there is also the San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park and the Maritime Museum included as units of the GGNRA. The Museum tells the story of San Francisco's colorful and diverse maritime heritage. The Visitor Center is housed in a refurbished 1909 waterfront warehouse, located at the corner of Hyde and Jefferson Streets. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">It is easy to navigate San Francisco by using the MUNI public transportation system. There is an elaborate network of trolley and bus routes bisecting the city, including the famous cable cars on Hyde and Mason Streets accessing downtown and shoreline attractions. For those coming from the greater Bay Area, take the Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) to downtown San Francisco, and then take the MUNI to your destination. Bus schedules and maps are posted in every bus shelter. (MUNI info line: 415-673-MUNI)</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The GGNRA is also interconnected by a series of hiking trails. All units of the San Francisco GGNRA connect with each other via the Coastal Trail in the western portion of the park. They are picked up by the Golden Gate Promenade along the San Francisco Bay, starting at Fort Point in the Presidio, and going to Fort Mason and the adjacent Aquatic Park. The entire trail is almost 20 kilometers!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Even with a car the GGNRA is so massive it is best to plan your visit over several days. Since the GGNRA San Francisco is situated within a thriving metropolis, there is no shortage of hotels, restaurants, grocery stores, or sporting goods outlets. Unlike other National Parks, there is no camping available in the San Francisco units, except for permitted group camping in the Presidio at Rob Hill.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&ll=37.793236,-122.453613&spn=0.144876,0.327187&z=12&msid=115812661471561779365.00046141e1da203d45193&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&ll=37.793236,-122.453613&spn=0.144876,0.327187&z=12&msid=115812661471561779365.00046141e1da203d45193&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">The National Recreation Areas Of San Francisco Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",BO010137,audio|cd|quietguide|video,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/san_francisco_national_recreation_areas_preview.pdf,http://www.youtube.com/embed/TOXFvrvU8MA,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004H4XIO0,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940012229779,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""The Beaches of San Francisco"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0137SFNtlRec\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SFNtlRec1_Beaches.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0137SFNtlRec\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SFNtlRec1_Beaches.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Fort Mason & the Maritime Museum "",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0137SFNtlRec\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SFNtlRec2_FtMason.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0137SFNtlRec\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SFNtlRec2_FtMason.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""The Presidio: Where Civil War Meets Silicon Valley"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0137SFNtlRec\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SFNtlRec3_Prsdio.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0137SFNtlRec\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SFNtlRec3_Prsdio.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Land's End & the Cliff House"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0137SFNtlRec\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SFNtlRec4_LandsEnd.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0137SFNtlRec\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SFNtlRec4_LandsEnd.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Flying at Fort Funston "",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0137SFNtlRec\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/SFNtlRec5_FtFunston.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0137SFNtlRec\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/SFNtlRec5_FtFunston.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]}]}",The Beaches of San Francisco:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0137SFNtlRec/mp3/SFNtlRec1_Beaches.mp3|Fort Mason & the Maritime Museum :http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0137SFNtlRec/mp3/SFNtlRec2_FtMason.mp3|The Presidio: Where Civil War Meets Silicon Valley:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0137SFNtlRec/mp3/SFNtlRec3_Prsdio.mp3|Land's End & the Cliff House:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0137SFNtlRec/mp3/SFNtlRec4_LandsEnd.mp3|Flying at Fort Funston :http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0137SFNtlRec/mp3/SFNtlRec5_FtFunston.mp3|

The Sea Of Cortez,"Just 100 miles from the southwestern border of the United States, Las Animas Wilderness Retreat is on the shores of the Sea of Cortez. 'Mexico's Galapagos' is so remote you must take a small plane and then a boat just to reach it. World-class fishing (some say the best in the world), snorkeling, whales, dolphins, birds, yurt-living, margaritas and sunset over a beach without electricity or hotels is worth the trouble. Only 20 guests at a time enjoy the magic of a place John Steinbeck called 'miraculous.' Ever swim with a 16-foot whale shark?

<p>City residents and tourists alike enjoy the world-class museums, the lakes, bridges, waterfalls, trails, gardens, sporting areas and public art of Golden Gate Park, all located within an area 3.5 miles long and a half mile wide. Park superintendent John McLaren (1887-1943) developed the park to be a gradual transition from the busy, cultural, ornamental East End to a more tranquil, wild, and natural West End. This layout plan still exists, interspersed with athletic fields, playgrounds, clubhouses, and just about every kind of garden imaginable.

The World In Toronto,"<p>Toronto, Canada, is the world's most culturally diverse city: half of its people were born outside of the country and 140 languages are spoken in its homes. The result is a vibrant, fascinating city, full of diverse architecture, contrasting cultures, and multi-faceted communities. You don't need to travel the world... find old cultures - and new ones - right here in one place!</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Downtown Neighborhoods</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Polish, Ukrainian, Italian & Indian Enclaves</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">More on South Asia</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Churches</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Festivals</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Toronto has so many different cultural opportunities; you would have to spend a year here to experience half of them. If you only have a few days, choose one or two nationalities. If you desperately wanted to go to India, Thailand or Greece this year but couldn't, you might want to concentrate on those countries.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Toronto has amazing temples, mosques, and great international food. It has many foreign-born people; you can find food, beer and clothes from their native lands. Flight tickets to their homeland can be cheaper because of the volume. Spend time here before you go anywhere else: it's a great introduction to the world.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Look for a Toronto-based foreign tourist office or consulate. Staff there should be able to tell you about their own favorite restaurants, grocery stores and festivals. If you are looking for British high tea, for example, phone Visit Britain or the British Consulate. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Plan much of your trip before you arrive. Toronto has festivals year round. You can get around downtown by public transportation but to see places in the suburbs, it's best to take a car. Get a good map or GPS. Local travel agencies should be able to help. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>

There Is Only One Berkeley,"<p>The oldest and arguably the most prestigious school in the University of California system is UC Berkeley, or 'Cal,' as it is affectionately known by students and alumni. Berkeley, the city, grew up around Berkeley, the university, beginning in the mid-19th century. University and city endured Vietnam anti-war protests and brutal police confrontations, but turned out for the better with the founding of People's Park. Fashion and social movements also have their birthplace at Berkeley. In national studies conducted for decades, the students and residents of Berkeley consistently measure as the most politically liberal people in the nation.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Some Call it Berzerkeley</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">People's Park & Telegraph Avenue</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">UC Berkeley</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Downtown Berkeley</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Berkeley Marina</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">UC Berkeley offers very limited parking on or around the campus. Visitors are advised to use public transportation whenever possible. The Downtown Berkeley BART station is only a short distance from the campus west entrance.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Visitor Services provides information about the campus and conducts guided walking tours for individuals and groups. General campus tours are offered Mon-Sat at 10am and Sunday at 1pm. Mon-Fri tours begin at the Visitor Center located at the corner of Oxford and University. Weekend tours begin at Sather Tower (Campanile). All tours require online reservation.<br /></ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Don't miss the spin-off 'People's Park Annex,' which was established at the same time as People's Park by activist citizens of Berkeley. It is on a strip of land above the BART subway construction along Hearst Avenue, northwest of the UC campus. The land had been intended for development, but was peacefully turned over to the City of Berkeley and is now Ohlone Park.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Bring your bicycle on the BART or rent a bike downtown. Berkeley has modified its original grid roadway structure through the use of diverters, moving most traffic out of neighborhoods and onto arterial roads. Perfect for urban cyclists, Berkeley maintains a separate grid of arterial streets for bicycles, called 'Bicycle Boulevards,' with bike lanes and far less car traffic than the major arterial streets.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">There are 2 east-west main roads that intersect Interstate 80 with access to Berkeley. University Avenue runs from Berkeley's bay shore, past the main arterial streets San Pablo Avenue, MLK Way, and Shattuck Avenue before reaching the UC campus. Ashby Avenue (Highway 13), which also runs from Berkeley's bay shore to the hills, connects with the Warren Freeway and Highway 24 leading to the Caldecott Tunnel.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00046ac3d53585bc29294&ll=37.872279,-122.268047&spn=0.07236,0.163593&z=13&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00046ac3d53585bc29294&ll=37.872279,-122.268047&spn=0.07236,0.163593&z=13&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">There Is Only One Berkeley Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",BO010194,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/berkeley_california_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004PLO8E4,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940012290281,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Some Call it Berzerkeley"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""People's Park & Telegraph Avenue"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""UC Berkeley"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Downtown Berkeley"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Berkeley Marina"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]}]}",
"Tokyo's Gardens, History, And Temples","<p>Enjoying a tranquil oriental garden, created three centuries ago, is the start of a great day touring Tokyo.

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">'Hai' means 'yes.' It also means 'OK, 'I understand,' and 'Got you so far.' When the Japanese explain something, they will pause slightly to make sure you are following. If you understand, say 'Hai' and bow slightly. They'll bow back, and go on to the next point. Example: Helpful Japanese person: 'Turn right opposite the Town Hall.' Pause. You: 'Hai.'</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Bowing is part of the culture. It is basically a nod without dropping the chin - a courteous acknowledgment. Unless you meet the Emperor, your mother-in-law, or an elderly High Priest, that's enough. Don't bow low to a bell-hop or waitperson, however much they've helped; they will then have to bow lower to you and that's embarrassing for both of you. Just nod politely and they'll understand.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Street signs are usually in both Japanese and Romanji, which are Roman letters, same as ours. Look for the word endings. They'll help you find your way. &#8232;bashi = bridge &#8232;mon = gate &#8232;hama = beach seashore &#8232;gawa = river &#8232;dori = street &#8232;jo = castle &#8232;ji = temple &#8232;koen = garden or park &#8232;yama = mountain</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Take some cash. Many small shops don't take credit cards, and this includes stores and stalls at major tourist spots. If you can't do without it, pay cash. If you want to make a point, tell them 'no card, no sale,' smile, and bow politely as you leave. Department stores, convenience stores, and museums do accept credit cards.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Convenience stores such as Sun-K-us are tucked away around corners and are usually lit up like 7-11s. They carry a small range of sushi, microwave meals, sandwiches, beer, sake, soft drinks, and general items such as hairspray. Some carry wine.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Great food halls are found in department store basements. Bakeries are wonderful; the Japanese have really taken to pastries. If you want a snack between 3pm and 5pm, chances are that sweet cakes will be all you can get - plus a beer to wash them down. Try Asahi if you like light dry lager style.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>

Toronto's Many Chinatowns,"<p>In Toronto you can find unusual Chinese foods, and eat your way from Beijing to Tibet! There are at least six 'Chinatowns' and over 30 malls that could be classified as such. This is the largest (half-million) Chinese community in North America. You can immerse yourself in culture, religions, and dragon boat races... learn several dialects or Karaoke songs in Chinese... or get your ailments treated with acupuncture and herbs. You can buy scorpions, tea flowers or goji berries, and even paper money and airplanes - to keep your ancestral spirits happy!</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Downtown Chinatown</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Chinatown East</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Chinatown West </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Pacific Mall Markham</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Restaurants & Much More... </li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Most Chinatowns have at least one supermarket, housewares store, bakery, and herb store with an acupuncture doctor. Each has restaurants or a food court. Many have stores selling books, clothes, souvenirs, and goldfish. Some sell jewelry and have a travel agency where you can compare flight prices to China. Each of these is important to the Chinese.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Many Chinese stores forbid picture taking. It is best to ask first.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The week before Chinese New Year is a great time to visit. Stores, malls and restaurants are full of colorful posters, flowers, and red lanterns. Lions dance in the streets. The holiday is during Toronto's winter, however, so the weather could be cold. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Mall parking lots are packed on weekends and afternoons. It's best to go early. Most stores are open daily, from 11am or noon to 7 or 8pm, but you'll find some action around the clock. Tai chi people do their thing around 8:30am in malls or parks. Kung fu martial arts classes and karaoke bars are lively in the evenings. Some restaurants are open 24 hours.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Don't miss visiting temples and churches. They are good places to hear Chinese languages and meet the people. Several churches are close to the Dundas-Spadina Chinatown, each with services in English, Mandarin, and Cantonese. Except for this Chinatown, the temples are in other parts of the city. Look for tiny shrines in stores.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&ll=43.877603,-79.446945&spn=0.264303,0.654373&z=9&msid=115812661471561779365.00046ac20f7dec9fc88b7&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&ll=43.877603,-79.446945&spn=0.264303,0.654373&z=9&msid=115812661471561779365.00046ac20f7dec9fc88b7&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Toronto's Many Chinatowns Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",RM010135,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/torontos_many_chinatowns_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00A3WKHAS,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940015911916,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Introduction"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Downtown Chinatown"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Chinatown East"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Chinatown West "",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Pacific Mall Markham"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Restaurants & Much More...

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">It's a good idea to bring binoculars when viewing petroglyphs. Rock art is almost invisible in certain light. By focusing vision to smaller areas, binoculars enable you to see glyphs you might otherwise overlook.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">In the arid Southwest your body loses more water than in areas with higher humidity. Signs of dehydration include headaches, appetite loss and dark-colored urine. When backpacking in the Southwest, bring at least one gallon of water/person/day.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Tyuonyi village was built so that sunrise aligns with the entrance during winter solstice. Join the rangers to watch this yearly event.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>

Victorian Breckenridge,"<p>Of course Breckenridge is a popular ski area, but during the mining era skis were merely a form of transportation. Our tour takes you back in time to those days when Breckenridge was a Victorian mining town. You'll meet a ghost who haunts a popular restaurant, a miner with a heart of gold, an escaped slave who became a successful restaurateur and a minister who traveled from town to town on his skis to deliver both the mail and the word of God. You'll also discover the history behind many of the storefronts on Main Street and visit the Victorian homes of French and Harris Street.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction to Breckenridge, Colorado</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">South Main Street </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">North Main Street </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Ridge Street & the Arts District</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Victorians of French & Harris Street</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Even in summer, Breckenridge can be chilly. In fact, it's often referred to as 'Breckenwind.' Bring along a jacket and a comfortable pair of walking shoes.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>

Visiting Today's Mongolia,"Mongolia welcomes you with unspoiled beauty, rich pageantry and vivid history. Its Buddhist heritage is now being revived after decades of suppression, and Amarbavasgalant monastery is an interesting destination. Almost half of the Mongolians live in the countryside, following their herds from one pasture to another. All summer they are busy tending their animals, and making cheese and yogurt. Once a year, in July, the whole country is involved in competitions that determine its best horses, archers and wrestlers, during the colorful Naadam Festival. Visitors are welcome!<br /><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Overview</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Getting to Know Ulaanbaatar</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Naadam Festival</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Countryside</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Visiting Homes</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Other Mongolian Destinations</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Give yourself a couple of extra days leeway in Ulaanbaatar if you are taking domestic Mongolian flights. The planes have no radar and are weather dependent. U.B. has plenty of things to do if your flights are on time - but they aren't always, so be prepared!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Book a tour through U.B.'s Shuren, Beijing's Monkey Business, G.A.P. or other travel agencies. You need a guide, car, and driver to get around, especially if you don't speak the language. Directional signs are rare. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Pack a safety helmet if you're going to ride horses. Approach horses from their sides. Don't assume the animals you see are tame and want humans to pet them. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">If you are going out to the countryside by jeep, stock up on bottled water and fresh fruit in U.B. before you go. Take a flashlight and toilet paper for your own use. Bring candy, toys, and picture books as gifts for the families you will be visiting. These hard-working people will shower you with hospitality.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Even with a world cellular telephone, you'll only be able to phone home if you're within a kilometer of a town. Mongolia's land-line system doesn't always work very well.

Artists, musicians, writers, and free spirits of all kinds flock to this city at the junction of the Columbia and Willamette Rivers, creating a vibrant culture that's nowhere more in evidence than in Portland's downtown area. Here, reminders of the city's rich history sit beside up-to-the-minute restaurants, galleries, shops, and attractions.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Waterfront Park</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Pioneer Square</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Park Blocks</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Pearl District</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Old Town & Chinatown</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">This tour covers approximately three miles of easy walking. You can also use Portland's convenient, free TriMet system to get around. Tips for using the MAX and the streetcar are included throughout the tour. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Get the best seat in town at Portland City Grill's deservedly famous happy hour. From the 30th floor of the U.S. Bancorp, you can look out over Portland's skyline while sipping a cocktail and nibbling a delicious (but inexpensive) snack. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Portland's food carts are known nationwide for offering delectable dishes from around the globe at prices that won't pinch your wallet.

<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Though it's known as the 'City of Roses,' Portland is home to plenty of other floral delights as well. The South Park Blocks are the perfect place to stroll and check out an ever-shifting array of flowers in bloom. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>

Washington D.C.'s National Mall,"<p>The National Mall in Washington, D.C., a vast expanse of parkland lined with monuments and imposing buildings, adorns the center of the American capital and lies at the very heart of the nation. The most powerful political symbols of the United States, the U.S. Capitol Building and the White House, share this land with some of the world's greatest museums. Monuments and memorials, honoring the achievements of the United States' greatest citizens, offer visitors ample opportunities to get better acquainted with the country's history. </p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">East End - Capitol Hill</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">North Side - Government & History</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">West End - Potomac's Embrace </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">South Side - Smithsonian</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">All attractions and museums on the National Mall are free of charge. However, tickets for the Washington Monument and the U.S. Capitol are limited and distributed on a first-come, first-served basis every morning at 8:30 am. Be sure to arrive early since the lines can be long. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Security continues to be a concern on the National Mall. Be prepared to have your bags and personal effects searched, and to go through a metal detector as you enter national museums and other attractions. Also, especially around the U.S. Capitol Building and the White House, avoid trouble by staying within the publicly accessible areas.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">There are no restaurants on the National Mall, but cafes and cafeterias are located in most museums. Street vendors along Constitution and Independence Avenues sell drinks and fast-food snacks. Also feel free to bring your own lunch since there are many pleasant areas on the Mall for a picnic. Restrooms and water fountains are found near every major attraction.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Since the National Mall is located in the center of Washington, D.C., parking is at a premium and restricted to two hours on the street. It is highly recommended that you use the city's efficient metro (subway) transport system to get to the Mall. A number of metro stations are located in the area between the Smithsonian and the U.S. Capitol Building.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">During summer vacations and holiday weekends the number of visitors on the Mall can be overwhelming. For a more enjoyable visit, try to go on a weekday outside the regular high-peak tourist periods, when access to museums and memorials is easier and much more comfortable. You will not miss anything; interesting events and special activities are planned all year.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00045902b559409740363&ll=38.966883,-77.029953&spn=0.291495,0.574036&z=11&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.00045902b559409740363&ll=38.966883,-77.029953&spn=0.291495,0.574036&z=11&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Washington D.C.'s National Mall Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",GL010088,audio|cd|quietguide|video,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/washington_d.c.s_national_mall_preview.pdf,http://www.youtube.com/embed/RmU7RCpKr8g,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0041KL6N0,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940012439109,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Introduction"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0088DCMall\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/DCMall1_Intro.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0088DCMall\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/DCMall1_Intro.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""East End - Capitol Hill"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0088DCMall\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/DCMall2_CapHill.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0088DCMall\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/DCMall2_CapHill.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""North Side - Government & History"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0088DCMall\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/DCMall3_GovHist.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0088DCMall\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/DCMall3_GovHist.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""West End - Potomac's Embrace "",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0088DCMall\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/DCMall4_Ptomac.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0088DCMall\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/DCMall4_Ptomac.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""South Side - Smithsonian"",""videos"":[{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0088DCMall\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4320\/DCMall5_Smthsn.mp4"",""label"":""320""},{""url"":""http:\/\/57d29750a3a175446457-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.stream.cf1.rackcdn.com\/0088DCMall\/mp4\/streaming\/mp4720\/DCMall5_Smthsn.mp4"",""label"":""720""}]}]}",Introduction:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0088DCMall/mp3/DCMall1_Intro.mp3|East End - Capitol Hill:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0088DCMall/mp3/DCMall2_CapHill.mp3|North Side - Government & History:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0088DCMall/mp3/DCMall3_GovHist.mp3|West End - Potomac's Embrace :http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0088DCMall/mp3/DCMall4_Ptomac.mp3|South Side - Smithsonian:http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/0088DCMall/mp3/DCMall5_Smthsn.mp3|
"Western Beijing: Boats, Blooms 'n Boots","
<p>Hikers--and anyone with a green thumb--will enjoy this tour of western Beijing! It starts at the Summer Palace, one of Beijing's most beautiful parks. UNESCO named it a World Heritage Site because of its impressive gardens. Next up is a gentle stroll through Beijing Botanical Garden, with thousands of plants and a Tropical Conservatory. Finish up with a visit to Sleeping Buddha Temple, with its copper 54-ton statue of a reclining Buddha-the largest in China. The final stop is Fragrant Hills Park. Hike or take the cable car to the top for stunning views of Beijing in the distance.</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Introduction</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Summer Palace: Beijing's Prettiest Park</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Summer Palace: Crowded With History</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Westward Ho: Blooms & a Buddha</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Hiking in Fragrant Hills Park</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Poinsettias are not just a Christmas flower in Beijing. They bloom year 'round and are used in very colorful displays. Snap a few photos of them for next year's Christmas cards.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Clothing sizes vary greatly--an average person could wear anything from small to 4X. Trying items on before buying is important. Fitting rooms, however, may not be available except in major department stores. Always double-check the tags before leaving to make sure the package contains the right size.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Pick pocketing is rampant, especially on crowded buses and subways. Pickpockets are so smooth you won't know you're missing something until it's too late. Take good care of your valuables, such as passport and money.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Women who prefer Western-style toilets should look for the handicapped symbol in public toilets. In central Beijing, just use the public toilets in the five-star hotels.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Travelers over age 60 should show their passports when buying admission tickets.

There's the rocky Dun Laoghaire Harbour, offering spectacular views of the Irish Sea... the breathtaking Guinness Lake, nestled between two mountains... the ruins of Glendalough Monastery, a medieval monastic settlement... and there is the Wicklow Nature Reserve, with beautiful views, waterfalls, and hiking trails that are off the beaten path. If you're a nature-lover headed for the scenic Irish landscape, be sure to take this tour with you! </p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Wicklow Wonderland</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Dun Laoghaire Harbour</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Guinness Lake</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Glendalough Monastery</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Wicklow Walk</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">This day tour of Wicklow County is completely self-guided... get away from the crowds and enjoy yourself!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">All parking at Ireland's Dun Laoghaire Harbour is pay and display, so be sure to bring change with you. Parking is &#128;2 per hour and regulations are strict: don't forget to pay for your spot. You don't want to end your day early, taking care of a clamped car and a ticket!</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Be sure to dress in layers! Though you'll work up some body heat during your vigorous walk along Lower Lake, the high altitudes at Guinness Lake bring on some rigorous whipping winds. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">In addition to dressing in layers, bring rain gear on your trip. Showers appear and disappear in the blink of an eye, and your walk around Lower Lake offers little shelter against the elements. It's best to be prepared: chances are likely that your umbrella and rain jacket will come in handy at some point. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Both caravan and wilderness camping are allowed in Wicklow County; however, no form of camping is permitted in Glendalough. Visit the Wicklow National Park website for information on how to obtain your camping permit.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><br /></div></div></div><a name=""map""></a><br><br><iframe width=""625"" height=""515"" frameborder=""0"" scrolling=""no"" marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" src=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.000461a48e2ffcb17a801&ll=53.110514,-6.201782&spn=0.450096,1.148071&z=10&output=embed""></iframe><br /><small>View <a href=""http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=115812661471561779365.000461a48e2ffcb17a801&ll=53.110514,-6.201782&spn=0.450096,1.148071&z=10&source=embed"" style=""color:#0000FF;text-align:left"" target=""_blank"">Wicklow Wonderland Tour</a> in a larger map</small>",MR010119,quietguide,http://0eef38000fa0c20aba6e-93b92a9a5dbb5a8a7d8c994648f377fc.r20.cf1.rackcdn.com/quietguides/wicklow_wonderland_tour_preview.pdf,,http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005JQBGSA,http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=2940013083592,"{""chapters"":[{""name"":""Wicklow Wonderland"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Dun Laoghaire Harbour"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Guinness Lake"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Glendalough Monastery"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]},{""name"":""Wicklow Walk"",""videos"":[{""url"":"""",""label"":""320""},{""url"":"""",""label"":""720""}]}]}",
"Wine And More, California's San Simeon To Morro Bay","<p >Enjoying wine in a beautiful, natural setting makes the Central Coast of California a special place to visit. The San Luis Obispo County region boasts hundreds of wineries, and in the northern coastal section there are a number of tasting rooms to visit. But that's not all there is for a visitor to see and do in this area. You can enjoy hiking in three nature reserves, fish off piers in three towns, surf the good waves, go sea kayaking, and swim in the cool waters of the Pacific. There are antiques and art galleries, shops, and museums to explore, and, of course, lots and lots of wine to enjoy!</p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Wine Tasting & Touring </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Old Cambria Town</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The Rugged Coastline</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Castle Country</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">The West Village</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Harmony</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">A Classic Beach Town</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Morro Bay: Town by the Rock</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">A visit to Hearst Castle State Historical Monument is a must, but to avoid large crowds, plan your tour for off-season or for a weekday. Summer days and weekends are busiest.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">When visiting a tasting room, be open to trying new varietals and styles of wine, and don't be afraid to ask questions. The staff is there to educate you, about everything from wine terms to methods of fermentation.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Antique shopping is contagious and habit-forming, so set your budget accordingly.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">While wine tasting, remember the dump bucket is there for you to use after you have had your taste. There is no need to drink the entirety of each selection.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Bring your camera and/or camcorder for wonderful shots of area wildlife, seascapes, and the scenic beauty of the various nature reserves.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Don't combine wine tasting and hiking in the nature reserves. Do your hiking first and then go on to the tasting room.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">On your tasting tour, plan for a designated driver or book a guided wine tour. Information is available at chambers of commerce for each town, or at the San Luis Obispo County Visitors &amp; Conference Bureau.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p></div></div></div><a

Winter In Colorado's Steamboat Springs,"<p>Tucked into Routt National Forest in the northwest corner of Colorado, Steamboat Springs is so far off the beaten path you have to intend to get there! Its charming western character and hidden secrets are treasures for lucky adventurers. Explore the terrain with an expert, finding trails that only the locals use and naming the neighboring mountain ranges. Taste the bounty of small town flavor... dabble in its Old West history, and see famous Olympic skiers who've put this hideaway on the map. </p><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Tour Chapters</div><div class=""inner""><div><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Welcome to Steamboat </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Preparation: Where to Stay</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Historic Steamboat</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Skiing With a Local </li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Making Memories</li><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Dining Around Steamboat</li></ul></div></div></div><div class=""toggle""><div class=""title"">Useful Tips</div><div class=""inner""><div>
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Choose one of two airports to fly into Steamboat Springs. Denver airport (DIA) is 120 miles south, and a 3-hour drive through a truly scenic portion of Colorado. Steamboat/Hayden (HDN) airport, 25 miles west of town, is also a gorgeous and scenic option if you can handle the small planes.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Hot air balloon rides might seem like a cold way to spend your winter morning here, but bundled up under that warm hot-air furnace during the later winter month of March is a perfect way to see the valley from a bird's-eye view. </ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p> 
<ul><ul><li class=""icon-map-marker"">Three words: layers, layers, layers! Without the humidity, 20 degrees doesn't seem as cold here... still, the best way to make sure you stay warm is with several (five for me!) non-cotton layers under your ski jacket.</ul></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>
