Salvador, Brazil
The third-largest city in Brazil, Salvador, is also called the "capital of happiness." Known for its citywide outdoor parties, which culminate in the Carnivale in the spring, the city is a cultural jewel. Divide your daylight hours between tours of the historic colonial city and trips to the turquoise blue waters surrounding Salvador's 50 miles of beaches. At night, enjoy the renowned local cuisine while watching a performance of Capoeira, a mix of dance and martial arts.
Ushuaia, Argentina
The last port for ships headed to Antarctica, Ushuaia is the gateway to the end of the world. Known for having the longest ski season in South America, it's perfect for snow bunnies as well as adventure-seekers looking to hike on the Glacier El Martial, which creeps up to the base of the city. In the summer, the vistas over the deep blue waters of the Beagle Channel, a shipping route, are simply breathtaking.
Cartagena, Colombia
First settled in 4000 B.C. and later conquered by the Spanish in 1533, this Colombian city is a wonder of ancient archaeological sites and colonial architecture. Not-to-be missed sites include the Castillo de San Felipe de Barajas, a 16th century fortress; the Gold Museum, which features pre-Columbian gold relics; and the sunsets over Caratgena Harbor, which looks out over the Caribbean Sea.
Panama Canal, Panama
Not only is the Panama Canal one of the most important waterways on Earth, it's also a site of incredible natural wonders. Take a day trip to the Embera Indian Village for local handicrafts or to the Gatun Lake, a manmade body of water that feeds into the canal. It is surrounded by a nearly untouched rainforest that boasts some of the rarest species of flora and fauna in South America.
Huatulco, Mexico
Situated near nine bays that protect 36 miles of white-sand beaches, Huatulco is the place to go in Mexico if you want to avoid spring break mayhem. Consisting not only of coastline but also huge swaths of jungles ideal for bird watching, the town is a tropical oasis. When you go, try the local Oaxacan cuisine, which is best known for mole, a sauce consisting of chilies and chocolate.
Cabo San Lucas, Mexico
A haven to Hollywood stars, Cabo San Lucas boasts not only gorgeous people but also many natural wonders including El Arco rock arch. Spend your time there relaxing with fresh margaritas, kayaking, playing golf or scuba diving with whale sharks in the majestic Pacific Ocean.
Hilo, Hawai'i
Nestled between two of Hawaii's famous volcanoes -- don't worry, they're currently dormant -- the city is located on the calm waters of the Hilo Bay. During the day, snorkel in freshwater pools on Leleiwi Beach, or take a stroll down Banyan Drive, a street lined with trees planted by historic figures including Franklin D. Roosevelt and Amelia Earhardt. At night, stargaze at the ‘Imiloa Astronomy Center of Hawai‘i, which boasts a 120-seat planetarium.
Venice, Italy
Known as one of the most romantic places in the world, Venice is a floating city linked by ancient bridges and canals. Consisting of impossibly gorgeous Renaissance palaces and museums as well as the Plaza San Marco, where you are obligated to dine al fresco, traveling by gondola is the preferred method of getting around. Rumored to be sinking, Venice is a must-see destination for anyone planning a trip to Europe.
Crete, Greece
The largest of Greece's 6,000 islands, Crete has been on the map since mythological times when it was rumored to have been the home of the Minotaur, a creature with the head of a bull and the body of a man. Today, it has remnants from many civilizations. In a single day, you can visit Ancient Greek archaeological sites like Knossos, remnants of architectural wonders left behind by the Venetian and Turkish invaders or even the house of Baroness Von Schwartz, a 19th century Austrian noblewoman.
Dubrovnik, Croatia
In recent years, Croatia has become one of the most popular tourist destinations in Europe; Dubrovnik, a medieval city, is its heart. Spend your days looking over the vistas of the bay from the famous walls of the old city, or take a boat trip to Lokrum, a wooded island that includes a monastery, fortress, botanical garden and naturist beach.
Las Palmas, Gran Canaria, Spain
Located off the western coast of Africa, this territory of Spain is a melting pot for all sorts of cultures. During the day, catch sun on the beach or hike up to one of the city's many volcano craters. At night, enjoy the wild nightlife, which includes a drag queen galas and outdoor dance parties. There's no place like it.
Istanbul, Turkey
When compared to the rest of Europe, Istanbul feels like a different world. It's chock full of Ottoman treasures like the Topkapi palace, early Christian sites like the Hagia Sophia and ancient shopping meccas like the Grand Bazaar, one of the oldest covered markets in the world. Spend your time finding bargains on scarves or jewelry, or take a boat trip down the Bosphorus, the river that separates the Asian and European sides of the city. That's right. Istanbul is located in two different continents.
