Machu Picchu is one of the most notable places in all of South America. This Incan citadel was built around the 15th century, high up in the Andes Mountains. It was abandoned after it was invaded by Spanish conquistadors in the 16th century, but its ruins were eventually rediscovered in 1911 by American explorer Hiram Bingham. Today, it's one of the most popular (if not the most popular) attraction in South America. To get the best view, you can hike the Inca Trail for more than 50 miles, until you reach the very top where those ancient ruins still stand. 

Iceland, affectionately known as the land of fire and ice, offers a wealth of breathtaking experiences. Since the age of the Vikings this country has attracted intrepid travelers from all over the world.

As your kids start to advance in school, they'll start to learn about our nation's founding. What better place to explore the history in their textbooks than the country's capital? Show them where the President lives, where the Supreme Court rules on cases, and where Congress meets and passes laws. Let them run around the National Mall, exploring monuments to presidents past, and walk in the footprints of history. There's also a Smithsonian museum for kids. Take your future astronaut to the Air and Space Museum, or tour your dinosaur-lover around the Natural History Museum. With plenty of dining and hotel options, you'll be able to design the perfect trip for your child. 

There are two routes to the enchanting Cala Coticcio cove—one by land and one by sea. A long and sometimes steep hiking trail ends at the sparkling blue of the Mediterranean. Boats also ply the waters around Caprera Island to arrive at the rocky pocket beach. And despite the tourists lured to this gem of an island off the coast of Sardinia it will likely remain breathtaking, because Caprera is preserved as part of the wider La Maddalena Archipelago National Park. Few people live on the island, but many birds (and plenty of goats!) call the place home. In the crystalline ocean, marine life is abundant. It's also protected since the nature reserve extends offshore 

Perched between the Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea, these two islands make up a single Commonwealth nation, known best for its sugar-white beaches lined with coral reefs and lush inland rainforests. When your ship pulls into St. John's Port, you'll be greeted by colorful buildings perched along the water's edge.
