Lush forests, spectacular beaches, deserts, mountains - Tenerife's options will leave you in a quandary for how to spend your precious day. Take a cable car to the top of Mount Teide, a volcano which also happens to be the highest point in Spain and casts the largest shadow in the world. Stand in its surrounding landscape and feel like you're on the moon's surface. In reality, you'll be standing where parts of The Planet of the Apes and Star Wars were filmed.

Colonial architecture isn't the only thing colorful about Nassau, this capital city and financial center has a history that includes slaves, Spanish explorers, pirates, and Indians. From sunning on pristine beaches to exploring ancient forts, Nassau offers many unique opportunities.
