Incredible Rides at Universal Studios

Incredible-Rides-at-Universal-StudiosIf you are looking for fun, thrills, and adventure, Universal Studios is the place to go. There are rides that will thrill you and rides that will scare you senseless. From little rides to great big ones, there is something to please every thrill seeker out there.

Begin your day with Revenge of the Mummy. This is a psycho thrill ride that is unlike anything you have ever experienced. This is a roller coaster ride in total darkness. Travelling at a very high speed, you will have many terrifying creatures jumping out at you. If your heart is still beating and you think you can handle more, your next stop should be Jurassic Park: The Ride.

Jurassic Park may seem a bit tame after Revenge of the Mummy, but it is still great fun, and there are still many thrills. This ride has you riding a raft which is slowly being cranked up hill. Dinosaurs of various breeds appear out of nowhere while you are going up. Suddenly, you and your raft are falling quickly downhill, and the ride ends with a huge splash that leaves you soaked! Make sure you bring a change of clothes, because you will want to move on from here Back to the Future.

Back to the Future will have you riding in a car like the one in the movie. The scenes from the movie literally come to life, and many people experience motion sickness…so if you are prone to motion sickness, you may want to skip this one. Other attractions not to miss if you enjoy thrills include Nickelodeon Blast Zone, Van Helsing: Fortress Dracula, the Special Effects Stages, and Shrek 4-D.

If scare easily, you may want to avoid these thrill rides and attractions. They are also not recommended for very young children, pregnant women, or people with heart conditions. People with anxiety issues should avoid these attractions as well. There are many tamer rides and attractions that can be enjoyed in the park if the thrill seeking rides aren’t suitable for you.

The purpose of going to the park is to have fun. If the thrill rides and attractions scare you to the point where it isn’t fun anymore, then they should be avoided. Don’t allow others in your party to coerce you into visiting the attractions that scare you too badly. Again, there are many attractions at Universal Studios Tours that are suitable for those who aren’t comfortable with the thrill seeking rides – so don’t think that you can’t have a good time without getting scared senseless!

Ski Holidays at LAAX in Switzerland Switzerland

Ski Holidays at LAAX in Switzerland

Ski-Holidays-at-LAAX-in-SwitzerlandLAAX in Switzerland stands at over 30 000 feet, with skiing and snowboarding facilities that suit everyone’s needs – from beginners to world champions. LAAX has hosted all the big events in snowboarding and skiing, welcoming thousands of tourists from around the globe each week. LAAX was one of the first major skiing locations to get on the map, when in the 70s skiing holidays started to grow in popularity for western travellers – LAAX was right their, waiting to ride the wave. Millions of visitors later, LAAX is renowned for its 3rd slalom known only as “Death Mountain”. With glaring views down the steep, tangling mountain-side it is no wonder “Death Mountain” scares even the most resilient of skier.

With excellent facilities for everyone LAAX recently hosted the snowboarding world open, in which over 10,000 people took part from 60 countries around the world. An interesting element of this was that over 100 entries came from south Asia and Africa showing the rise of the sport, and the exposure of the location on a global scale. LAAX was voted number 1 skiing location around the world, by “Ski Press Magazine” that also notes LAAX as having the third best Snowboarding facilities and, as being the best new comer to Freestyle snowboarding. The popularity of LAAX, has also lead to continued investment from the company operating the slope, building an amazing ski lift that can handle weights of over 80 tonnes as it climbs 30 000 feet up the mountain face. The ski lift’s unique attribute is its balancing technology that allows the ski lift to carry massive amounts of weight disproportionately whilst keeping a balanced angle and speed.

The popularity of LAAX is not just shared by avid skiers and snowboarders. Top music names and DJs also come to LAAX to experience the amazing events first hand. With the rise of snowboarding many of these musicians feel they can appeal to a certain audience out on the slopes, especially under the cover of darkness, with only flood lights keeping the mountains alive. The DJs provide entertainment as the crowd snowboard and ski into the morning sunlight. The views and the experience are utterly amazing, and are a sure way to ensure top class entertainment for the young travellers who visit LAAX.

However it is not only the night-time DJ sets and fireworks that sparkle for the young skiers; there are also plenty of locations tailored to their needs off the slopes as well. With local pubs, clubs and even swimming pools the young ones are sure to enjoy themselves off the snowy mountains of LAAX. Despite being an amazing location for younger skiers the location also appeals to those who have never been skiing before. They have multi-lingual training facilities and indoor centres where they train first-time skiers before taking them to the slopes. They also have amazing training facilities for advanced skiers, facilities that would undoubtedly be used by the world’s top skiers and snowboarders at the world events that are held at the slope almost every year.

The local hotels and accommodation are amazing because unlike most skiing locations, they don’t limit the skiers and snowboarders to a single choice. There are youth hostels that are perfect for those looking to ski on the cheap; there are 5 star hotels for those looking to live the lap-of-luxury and there are many options in between. LAAX is home to more than just pubs, clubs and swimming pools, with banks and supermarkets also at realistic walking distance. LAAX is said to be at its peak during August, however this is said to be true for most of Europe’s top, skiing locations. That is why it is advisable to find a quieter time to visit, preferably a short time following the busy spell. The great thing about coming after the peak is that you are able to visit for around half the price you would usually pay during high season.

The Best Ski Holiday Destinations in Europe Uncategorized

The Best Ski Holiday Destinations in Europe

The-Best-Ski-Holiday-Destinations-in-EuropeWhen it comes to skiing and winter sports, Europe has more than its fair share of amazing resorts. From the greatly priced, to the more than reasonable, Europe has it all, and has so much to offer any skier. If you’ve never been to Europe on a skiing holiday, or if you’re looking to expand your experience, you’ll find something that catches your eye without too much research, and you might just end up joining the legions of skiing fans that wouldn’t go anywhere else in the world for their ski holidays.

On mainland Europe, you have such a varied selection. From the world famous French skiing resorts to Austria, Switzerland and the tiny principality of Andorra, you’ve got such a wide range of skiing to choose from. France is known the world over as the true home of skiing, and the French really know how to do a quality holiday. With naturally amazing resources, and scenery that can take your breath away, France is an ideal location for a skiing holiday. Why not try the Courchevel resort, which has four different ski resorts within one, providing the perfect blend of quality and affordability in a skiing trip. From the grossly overpriced 1850 resort, the playground of Europe’s film stars and playboys, to the seemingly remote 1350 at the bottom of the mountain, you have so much to choose from in Europe’s finest skiing country. With the kids or with your friends, France is truly a destination that will make for a memorable ski holiday.

Or how about some of the Italian resorts? Italy, famous for being the cheaper way to ski, also benefits from a diverse range of resorts, like the tiny Alba resort, as well as some larger, more sizeable areas to ski. Famous for passion and a depth of culture, Italy is the ideal place to take a ski break in Europe, and the weather’s good too! Then there is Italy’s neighbour, Croatia? A rising European nation, you’ll find a Croatian holiday outrageously good value for money, not to mention top quality. From the international standard ski resorts to their world class restaurants, Croatia is certainly a country on the up, and its skiing facilities can only improve as more and more tourists flock to their slopes each year. Additionally, Bulgaria is an excellent skiing destination to take the kids. With open arms, you will be welcomed by the Bulgarian people, who are more than eager to tell you about their rich and deep past, and welcome you as part of their future. In these expanding and developing European nations, you will come to appreciate the true value of tourism, and the quality of treatment and service they are prepared to offer for your investment.

How about Austria for your skiing trip? When we think of skiing, we often imagine the perfect Alpine ideal, with breathtaking scenery and fresh, clean air. Well, it simply doesn’t come much better than Austria or Switzerland, and if you’re looking for a skiing holiday you never want to forget, then either Austria or Switzerland it must be. Visit Switzerland for their Alps experience? Arosa, Davos and St. Moritz are all world renowned ski holiday resorts to rival the French. St. Moritz is famous for its glitz and glamour having been featured in several Hollywood movies including James Bond 007.

Skiing in Switzerland received a big boost in England from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, author of the Sherlock Holmes series. Doyle, an avid sportsman, was spending winter time in Davos. For entertainment, he ordered some skiing “boards” from Norway and hiked up the mountain with two local guides. They then skied down into Arosa, ending their journey with a luncheon at a local inn, the Seehof, the first Hotel in Arosa. Doyle wrote of his pioneering Davos/Arosa ski adventure in a British magazine, The Strand, in 1894, and the story attracted British skiers to Switzerland.

Skiing the alps in the home of chocolate and cuckoo clocks, you will be amazed at how picturesque this modern nation has managed to keep itself, whilst still becoming a world leader in the global financial industry.

Skiing in Europe is the ideal way to spend your winter holidays. If you love skiing, you are guaranteed to find a great resort somewhere, within your budget that meets your needs, and caters for your ability. With most resorts also boasting strong ski learning academies, you can also work to improve your skills while you are on holiday, ensuring that your skiing trip is both useful and memorable. Whatever you are looking for, choose Europe as your number one skiing destination, for that perfect blend of quality, tradition and culture, and for a holiday that is truly breathtaking.

Winter Ski Holidays at Geilo in Norway Norway

Winter Ski Holidays at Geilo in Norway

Winter-Skiing-at-Geilo-in-NorwayThe ski resort of Geilo in Norway stands 800 metres above sea level, and has one of the highest ski lifts in the world, stretching 3,887 feet. Geilo is positioned three and a half hours from Oslo, and has good road and rail links to the village. Set amidst amazing scenery just off the banks of Fjord, Geilo is at the heart of Norway’s “Winter Wonderland”. Maintaining its reputation as an excellent family resort, Geilo has seen visitors from Europe and beyond since early 1900s. The resort remains unspoilt, with true Norwegian character firmly intact.

The Thon Hotel Vestlia and Thon Hotel Highland are two hotels I have stayed at and can reccommend, but there is also numerous lodging houses, and the famous Holms Ski Bar. Although primarily a ski resort Geilo also offers sleigh rides, wildlife adventure tours, ski orienteering, tobogganing, snow shoe walking, dog-sledging, kite-skiing, night-skiing, snowboarding, freestyle snowboarding and much more.

Geilo’s reputation as one the worlds top skiing resorts lies mainly in its ability to cater for family holidays. With over 10,000 families visiting the slopes each year, Geilo also offers excellent tuition in packages which is referred to as the “Family Starter Pack”. The Family Starter Pack includes tuition for your entire family for a day. This means, that not only can your whole family learn together, but is also means that families with no skiing experience, can go along and after the first day, they will be able to ski on their own.

Geilo has also increased its reputation amongst Snowboarders in recent years beating off Lillehammer, Voss and Hemsedal in its bid to host the Norwegian Snowboarding Championship. With four sides of mountain each dedicated to snowboarding and skiing, Geilo is now able to call itself Norway’s first skiing location to offer 5 runs dedicated to snowboarding. With 110 runs in total, Geilo has 14% expert allowing experienced skiers to enjoy themselves on the slopes too, whilst maintaining the rest of its facilities for intermediates and beginners that account for a larger number of their yearly visitors.

Geilo also offers exceptional value for money with weekly family packages including accommodation, bed and breakfast. The element that stands out the most about Geilo is the way it caters for families, with crèches, family diners, and especially their Christmas bonanza which includes Santa visiting the slopes with his reindeer on Christmas day, and the time leading up to Christmas. Geilo never fails to be fully booked for Christmas so make sure to book early, with so many families choosing to bring their children along to experience Christmas within this winter wonderland.

Although Geilo offers amazing family packages, it would be unfair to say that Geilo is limited to family holidays. Geilo has hosted very serious world sporting events, as well as being the training ground of the Norwegian national snowboarding and skiing teams.

Geilo is available from August/September all the way through to late March and is also considering investing in “Avalanche Technology” which generates snow from water to provide 24/7/365 skiing. If you have never been to Geilo then I would recommend that you give it a go, although the family image may put certain people off visiting the slope I would suggest that checking it out for yourself is the best thing to do. From their website it is clear to see that consistent snowfall, and a good variation in the difficulty of runs, Geilo is a facility that can genuinely cater for everyone; from beginner to professional.

It has many great options for accommodation, and with good travel links as well their really is no excuse for not hoping on a plane and going to Geilo today. With thousands of people on the slopes, from different countries and different backgrounds Geilo is suitable for families and teenagers alike. With well-known DJs playing at local club venues Geilo is also becoming very popular amongst those teenagers who would have previously seen Ibiza as the only place to be seen on holiday.

Holidays at Courchevel 1850 Ski Resort, France France

Holidays at Courchevel 1850 Ski Resort, France

Holidays-at-Courchevel-1850-Ski-Resort-FranceThe Courchevel 1850 resort in France is one of the best ski resorts in the world if you happen to be a beginner. Yes, we were all beginners once, but maybe not the Courchevel 1850 resort. The resort knows that if you get the beginners, the intermediates and advanced will follow. With over 50% of all runs dedicated specifically to beginners, it is a haven for those learning to ski, or looking to refine their skills and expertise whilst on a French ski holiday.

Rumored to be the most expensive resort on the French Alps, this isn’t strictly the truth. You can find really good deals if you know where to look, and there are really good discounts for group bookings too, although you get what you pay for like everywhere else.

Courchevel is part of the Three Valleys resorts, and itself is divided into four distinct areas from the bottom to the top: 1300, 1550, 1650, and 1850. In general, the further up you go, the more expensive your trip is likely to be, so it is wise to consider going slightly further down, where you can still find some amazing skiing, both off piste and cross country, as well as some great downhill runs. With an astonishing 65 ski lifts across the resort, the Courchevel is an enormous skiing resort, and attracts a wide variety of tourists from across Europe, and indeed the world.

The Courchevel 1300 is located right at the very bottom of the resort, and is truly beautiful in an unspoilt, picturesque sense. It is a fantastic challenge for beginners, and is ideal for those looking for some relaxation or even entertainment outside of their skiing holiday. Alternatively, moving up, there is the 1550, which is seen as the playground of the locals. Here you can benefit from some amazing self catering deals, and also manage to find great skiing, so this is perhaps a good consideration for those with families. Again, moving up there is the 1650, home of the famous ski school, and a number of top quality restaurants. With largely chalet accommodation, this is also a great resort to choose for your French skiing holiday. Finally we have the 1850 – The 1850 is home to the rich and the famous, and you’re looking at an arm and a leg if you want to ski there. Although the skiing isn’t that much better (unless you’re looking for off-piste), there are heftier queues, and the resort isn’t overly child friendly or family orientated.

Of the four resorts on the Courchevel, you are guaranteed to have a great skiing holiday whichever you choose. Each has the benefit of world class skiing, although the facilities may differ between each. It is important to decide what it is you are looking for, and then to base your choice around this, so you can make the most of your skiing holiday. Why not consider taking a few lessons at the world famous Courchevel ski school? Or how about sampling some of the extensive night life these resorts have to offer? Whether you are a dedicated skier, or have never been on a pair of skis in your life, you are sure to find exactly what you are looking for on the Courchevel, and you are guaranteed a holiday to remember.

Romantic Holidays in Mexico Mexico

Romantic Holidays in Mexico

Romantic-Holidays-in-MexicoMexico holidays are available for individuals of all ages. While many enjoy taking their family on a holiday to Mexico, there are others who choose a Mexican holiday alone or with spouse. With all of the romantic destinations in the world, you may be wondering why you should choose to holiday in Mexico.

Romantic getaways in Mexico are popular for an unlimited number of different reasons. Perhaps, the climate is what draws in most couples. Almost all year long, the climate in Mexico is tropical, warm, and inviting. Many couples schedule a Mexico holiday to escape the cold weather back home. In addition to escaping cold weather, there is just something about a tropical environment that generates romance.

Aside from the weather, many of the holiday destinations found in Mexico are geared for couples that are looking for a romantic getaway. The most popular holiday destinations in Mexico for couples have always been the beaches, so, if you are interested in scheduling a romantic getaway at a Mexico beach, you have a number of different options to choose from.

Beach-side accommodations are plentiful in Mexico; however, the country is most famous for its beautiful beach resorts. If you are looking to have direct access to the beach and everything it has to offer, you may want to consider booking a stay at a Mexico beach resort.

In addition to having onsite accommodation, many Mexico beach resorts are known for their romantic environments and atmospheres. By directly contacting a beach resort or by researching one online, you can easily determine whether the resort caters specifically to couples. When looking for a romantic beach resort, you may want to consider the onsite activities for children. If children are allowed to stay onsite, many romantic hotels refrain from offering onsite activities; this may help to keep the setting more mature.

The Mexico destination you select for your holiday is important when planning a romantic getaway. In addition to destinations, you will want to consider the activities that you can participate in. Most resorts offer an unlimited number of holiday activities. The best way to bring romance to your holiday is to determine which of the activities you and your partner wish to indulge in.

Just a few of the many things that you can do while holidaying in Mexico include boating, swimming, snorkelling, scuba diving, and horseback riding. Many couples find beachside horseback riding to be relaxing and romantic, all at the same time. While snorkelling or scuba diving, you may be amazed with what you see and learn. For many, this excitement of discovery helps to generate romance.

When booking your romantic Mexico getaway, you may find that the cost of holidays in Mexico can be expensive. If you are planning a romantic holiday, while on a budget, you can still visit many of the above mentioned destinations and participate in many of the above mentioned activities. Mexico caters for every purse.

It is always nice to plan your own romantic Mexico getaway rather than having to pay for the services of a travel agent. Travel agents are often more expensive and you will be saving as much as 25 percent by making your own arrangements online. Using the internet you can easily research your selected holiday destination, and usually more accurately than your travel agent. Shopping online further gives you access to the latest price discounts and deals in real-time. Many of these deals are not available to the general public.

Whether you choose to enjoy a romantic getaway at a Mexico beach resort or you choose any other location in Mexico, you are sure to enjoy your getaway. With all that it has to offer, Mexico can easily be considered a lovers paradise.

If you are planning your next holiday in Mexico, and you have never been there before, you may have some concerns. You may be wondering what places are safe for you to visit.

Mexico is like all other countries. There are areas that are known as tourists attractions and then there are other areas that tourists are advised to stay away from.

Many guided tours take place in Cooper Canyon, the Oaxaca Mountains, the Yucatan Peninsula and Baja. In Mexico, Baja is most known for its water activities. Many popular guided tours include whale watching and kayaking. Whether you set out to watch the whales or you select a kayaking tour, you are sure to see Gray whales. Many times, they will come right up to your boat, making for great pictures or video footage.

Cooper Canyon and the Oaxaca Mountains are guided tours that are ideal for those that love a hike. To participate in these tours, it is advised that you receive the proper health clearance.

Movies and Fun on the Universal Studios Tour USA

Movies and Fun on the Universal Studios Tour

Movies-and-Fun-on-the-Universal-Studios-ToursUniversal Studios began offering tours back in 1964. Today, Universal Studios still offers tours, and they still make movies – but it has also become one of the largest amusement parks in the world. In fact, Universal Studios has mixed movie making with shows and a theme park full of rides to become one of the most popular tourist attractions in the world.

The Universal Studios tour is a one hour guided tour. Those on the tour ride around the studio’s 420 acres on a tram, and see many stars dressing rooms, production offices, and often famous Hollywood stars. Where else can you see a western town and a New York City street all in the same hour? The tour includes sets from Back to the Future, Curse of the Mummy’s Tomb, Jurassic Park III, and The Grinch. What makes this tour different is that it’s lots more than just your ordinary tour with a boring monotone tour guide! As the tour progresses, tourists encounter many joys and disasters!

Once you’ve finished your tour of the studios, you can move on to the theme park. All of the rides have a movie oriented theme, such as Revenge of the Mummy, Back to the Future, Jurassic Park, Terminator 2, and Shrek. There is also entertainment. Waterworld is a theatre presentation which features many stunts and special effects. Other shows that include terrific stage effects are Backdraft, Animal Planet Live, and Spider Man Rocks.

If all of this isn’t enough, you can also visit the TV Audience Ticket Booth. Here you get free tickets that will allow you to be part of the audience for television shows that are being taped during your visit. This is almost like being on TV! When you visit Universal Studios, you will have several days of fun, and you probably still won’t see everything that’s on offer.

Outside of Universal Studios you will find the Universal City Walk. This is Universal Studios very own Downtown. There are three blocks of stores, clubs, and restaurants for you to enjoy. There are no cars or motorized traffic allowed in this area, but there are hundreds, and sometimes thousands of pedestrians milling about enjoying all of the sights and sounds.

Universal Studio Tours is a great place to spend your next holiday – or it is perfect as an add on to a Disneyland Holiday. Even if you don’t have time for the theme park, the Universal Studios Tour itself is not to be missed!
