Stop being a tourist

Bangkok

|
|
Unique, immense, crowded, chaotic city. But fascinating, in continuous evolution, a melting pot of ethnic groups, races, religions and cultures. Like many other capital cities Bangkok never goes to sleep
There are so many things to see in Bangkok, but in a city like this you must not only see, you must watch, observe, savor.
Apart from the traditional and expected tour of the temples, the inevitable ride on the tuk tuk and visits to the floating markets, we suggest:
|
|
Sook Station
|
|
45-49 Soi Sukhumvit 101/2, Khwaeng Bang Na, Khet Bang Na, Krung Thep Maha Nakhon 10260, Thailand
Have you always dreamed of spending a night in the slammer? Well here you are satisfied. Once checked in, your mugshot will be taken and you will get a pair of black and white jammies as well.
Of course rooms are not provided for forgetfulness and fancy service: there will be legitimate simulated what's like to be in an overnight lockup.
Well, you’re free to walk.
|
|
Bangkok Float Center
|
|
HOPE LAND HOTEL 1110/10 2nd floor, Hope Land Hotel, Sukhumvit Road, Kwaeng Phrakanong, Klongtoey, Bangkok 10110
A special bath which gives you the "no-gravity" sansation. A deep and profound state of relaxation.
An ultra-deep relaxation of floating “resets” the body’s hormonal and metabolic balance, strengthening resistance to and accelerating recovery from the effects of stress, illness, injury or strenuous exercise.
Worth trying once!

No city in the world is comparable to New York City, for the unique energy that is breathed in the streets and in the five boroughs, Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens and Staten Island.
In New York, in fact, there is always something intriguing and fun to do, from Broadway shows to outdoor concerts, through city tours and museum visits, to restaurants, where you can enjoy kitchens Worldwide.
|
|
North Central Park
|
|
Don't just stick to he southern end of Central Park, as most of tourists do. Sure Cleopatra’s Needle, the Bethesda fountain and Terrance need to be visited.
Start walking to north, you will catch, in front of the Dakota building, the Strawberry Fields, the John Lennon memorial. Further north, there is the Belvedere Castle, a 19th century Gothic/Romanesque castle and the Reservoir, an artificial lake.

|
Brooklyn Pizza Tour
|
|
In the borough of Brooklyn, don't miss to have this amazing tour. As you may know, in New York you can have very good pizza and here in Brooklyn you can find traditional cheese topped pizzas and pizzas with creative toppings. We suggest:
- "Best Pizza" by Frank Pinello at 33 Havemeyer St, Brooklyn, NY 11211
- "L'Industrie" at 254 South 2nd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211

Dubai

|
|
At the end of the 1960s it was nothing but a few houses in the middle of the desert. Today, the city with the fastest growth in the world, represents the emblem of luxury: a cosmolite city, probably the most advanced city in the world, the global hub of luxury.
Beautiful beaches, magnificent hotels and futuristic shopping centers: this and much more is Dubai. If we add that practically crime does not exist, all that remains is to go and visit it.
|
|
Bur Dubai
|
|
The historical centre located on Dubai Creek’s western side of Bur Dubai, represents one of the unusual (and oldest) place to visit.
Have a walk in this amazing district to look the traditional houses or visit the Dubai Museum in the Al Fahidi Fort. And of course don't miss the Souks: top quality spices are sold there and you will find almost everything related.

Miami

|
|
Colorful, vibrant, multi-ethnic and obviously excessive: Miami has many faces and each one of them will surprise you.
Sometimes maybe a little too kitsch, but Miami is also this. Latin influence perceivable everywhere and almost in every dish, splendid and very fine beaches with crystalline sea, mecca of unbridled shopping or starting point for tours immersed in the nature.
|
|
Venetian pool
|
|
Turquoise water, palms and pastel painted colonial-style buildings: the Venetian pool is perfect to cool off on a hot day in Miami. Located in Coral Gables, it isn't only a swimming pool, it is an Historic Place listed in the National Register.
Probably the cleanest pool in Florida, since it is emptied, cleaned and re-filled with fresh water every single day.
Try the Venetian Paradise.
|
|
Walking Food/Art Deco District Tour
|
|
An icon of Miami, the Art Deco District undeniably exerts great fascination on visitors. Visiting it is a must, doing it together with a tasting of dishes of the typical Miami cuisine, the one with the Latin and Cuban influence, is a unique experience in the world.
Fantastic seafood and abundance of celebrity chefs: you will not regret it.
