A travel advisor can also ensure that amenities important to families are included, such as larger or adjoining hotel rooms.

NEW ZEALAND

Ever since director Peter Jackson used New Zealand as the stand-in for Middle-earth in the “Lord of the Rings” movies, the country has grown in popularity as a tourist destination, with lots of opportunities to see locations where the movies were filmed. Cosmopolitan Auckland, on the North Island, is a perfect starting point to discover New Zealand’s natural wonders.

 

HONG KONG

Hong Kong is a great option for consumers who have a trip to Asia on their travel bucket list. English is still an official language, so it’s easy to get around. Hong Kong combines historic architecture with a stunning skyline of modern skyscrapers, upscale shopping districts and bustling street markets, enabling visitors to get a taste of Chinese culture.

 

LONDON

London has plenty to offer travelers, from royal watchers to aficionados of art, music and drama. Children will love the London Eye observation wheel that takes riders high above the city for a thrilling ride. Historic sites such as the Tower of London appeal to all ages. From Aug. 24-26, the Notting Hill Carnival brings a Caribbean party to the city.

 

SHANGHAI

Shanghai, on China’s central coast, is the country’s biggest city and a global financial center. The Bund, the city’s waterfront promenade, is lined with historic buildings. Yu Garden is a beautiful example of a classical Chinese garden and a must-see.

 

PARIS

Paris is ideal for a romantic getaway. On Bastille Day, July 14, one can watch the annual parade along the elegant Champs-Elysees and fireworks over the Eiffel Tower. In the evening of July 13-14, firemen’s balls are held in a number of fire stations all over the city.
