Exploring Amsterdam
A floating city.
One of Europe’s smallest capitals, it’s unbelievable how much there is to do on an Amsterdam city break. Obviously, it’s well-known for the red light district and relaxed drug policies, but the novelty of these soon wears off. Luckily, the city is also crammed full of history, charming streetscapes, and fantastic architecture – not to mention the unbeatable cafes, micro-breweries, and nightlife.
Amsterdam Canals
Life on two wheels
Sure, this city has quaint, efficient trams, but the best way to get around the town is as the locals do, by bicycle. Try it out first on a bike tour then, freewheel over canal bridges (there are 165 canals keeping the sea out), through the Dam square and along quiet, leafy streets.

Weddings in Las Vegas
Love me tender…
It may not be the most orthodox way to wed, but a Las Vegas wedding is nothing if not kitch, quirky, and fun. Wading through the stress and cost of planning a traditional wedding? Jumping on a cheap flight to Las Vegas and getting hitched in a little white chapel with Elvis as a witness is a tempting option! Choose a package with flights, accommodation and car-hire for the most stress-free way to walk down the aisle. Here’s how to say ‘I do’, Sin City style…
Las Vegas
Getting there
Las Vegas holidays are all about over-the-top silliness, so the first thing to do when you arrive at the airport is rent yourselves a ride. Las Vegas car hire ranges from economy 2-doors to fantastic Mustang convertibles: roll the top down and tell everyone the good news!
A not-so-white wedding
You’ll be spoiled for choice when it comes to the main event. There are over 50 wedding chapels, offering both low-key ceremonies and themed events such as ‘Gangster’, ‘Pirate’ or ‘Western’. Some venues even offer a live internet broadcasting service, so your loved ones at home can follow the action. To get a marriage license before the nuptials, call in to the Marriage Bureau (201 Clarke Ave.) with $60 and one form of ID. Couldn’t be easier!
First night as Mr. and Mrs.
It’s time to consummate the marriage – but you’re not staying in any old hotel – you’re staying in a Las Vegas Hotel. Expect glitz, glamour and a host of added extras. The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas has an enormous casino, three pools and a desert-inspired Spa & Hammam. The castle-themed hotel Excalibur is right on the strip, surprisingly affordable, and has free champagne in the Octane lounge in the afternoon.
For classic luxury, however, the MGM Grand Hotel and Casino has everything you could ever need inside its doors, including a lion habitat in the lobby, both a food court and award winning restaurants, and theatres with resident shows like Cirque du Soleil and David Copperfield.

Whoever said that you needed to be rich to enjoy New York was LYING!
The first thing that crosses your mind when somebody mentions a New York city break, is the money required for the holiday. However I believe that a New York holiday does not need to burn a hole in your pocket. Of course, if you are thinking of five-star hotels, elegant restaurants and cab drives, it may just do that; but if you go there to simply enjoy the stunning sights and sounds of New York, you don’t need to worry so much about money. I suggest that the first thing you do to keep your holiday within budget is find a New York cheap flight ticket.

Budget hotel stays
The next big expense on the holiday list is of course your hotel. While the big five-star hotels in New York can set you back thousands of dollars every night, there are some glorious places that understand your need for an affordable place to stay. Read the rest of this entry »
