Destination Information
A study in symmetry, Puerto Vallarta surprises with its engaging balance between the old and the new. This venerated port city on the Pacific was virtually unknown to the general vacationing public until director John Huston chose the locale for his 1964 film The Night of the Iguana, with Richard Burton and Ava Gardner. As word spread, a burgeoning influx of guests was seduced by the city's Old Mexico charm. In the years since, Puerto Vallarta has become a major vacation destination, with a multitude of travelers every year attesting to its allure. The city has taken great strides to become more cosmopolitan, while preserving its vast cultural and natural treasures.

Upscale hotels and retail stores accommodating most any budget are juxtaposed beautifully with the Sierra Madre, where the Huichol Indians continue their ancient way of life. The region's tropical climate guarantees constant sunshine while you explore the coastline on horseback, lounge on the beach, snorkel amid the fantastic marine ecosystem, or simply walk the cobblestone streets looking for crafts and trinkets. During the day, a rain forest and rolling valley hills are your playground. At night, you can relax in a piano lounge or dive into a Mexican fiesta. With so many pleasures, you'll find yourself returning to Puerto Vallarta over and again!

Conditions
Prices are per person (unless otherwise noted), based on double occupancy accommodations (subject to change).

Destination information
Originally a small fishing settlement that became a busy port of call on the ancient trade route between Mesopotamia and the Indus Valley, the emirate was rapidly transformed into an international business center and modern tourist destination following the discovery of oil in 1966.

Today Dubai ranks as the country's foremost commercial center, a city whose skyline is constantly being upgraded with new developments providing the infrastructure and facilities needed for a progressive society, including world-class hotels, shopping plazas and outstanding sports facilities. Dubai Creek divides the city center into two parts: Deira on the northern side and Bur Dubai to the south and each has its fair share of souks, restaurants, hotels, shopping malls and fine mosques.

From within these high standards of luxury and convenience, visitors can experience exotic Arabia in the bustling souks or a night in a Bedouin tent with belly-dancing under the starlit desert skies, as well as a way of life that is still embedded in the Islamic traditions of an ancient land. Dubai's attraction lies in the contrast between the ultra modern and the enchantingly traditional, which gives the city a personality like no other and visitors a variety of experiences to choose from. From desert oases and unspoiled beaches, camel races and old wind towers, to top-class shopping opportunities, avant-garde architecture and the finest international cuisine, Dubai has more than enough depth to satisfy even the most seasoned of travelers.

One of the city's top attractions is its excellent shopping. As an open port with low import duties, Dubai can offer an incredible range of top brand names at cheaper prices due to the tax-free environment, and 'shopping tourists' are drawn from around the world to this paradise of malls, souks, boutiques and modern department stores selling everything from Paris fashions to Japanese electronics. The annual Shopping Festival attracts millions of tourists to the city for a shop-till-you-drop holiday

Destination Information
Of the 60 mostly uninhabited islands that make up the US Virgin Islands, the biggest and most visited are St Thomas, St John and St Croix. Their appeal lies in the amalgamation of the exotic and the recognisable, an island paradise with modern comforts, and a balance between Caribbean culture and American practicality.

The energetic capital of Charlotte Amalie, with its attractive harbor, lies on St Thomas. This island is the most Americanised of the chain, famous for its world-class duty-free shopping. Nearby St John is an unspoilt nature lover's paradise, with most of its forests, pristine beaches and reefs part of a protected national park. The largest of the islands is St Croix and its remoteness from the others, the historic remnants scattered about the landscape, the pretty Danish-influenced towns of Frederiksted and Christiansted, and the snorkelling at nearby Buck Island are the attractions here.

Surrounded by the crystal-clear waters of the Caribbean, these islands boast some of the most splendid coastline in the world, with white sandy beaches, astonishing coral reefs and pristine marine life, secluded coves, and untouched rainforests rising up above the sea-swept landscape. Caribbean color touches every aspect of the islands, blending with the strong Danish influence in the towns. White sails glide effortlessly across the emerald waters; local craftsmen display their unique island art along cobblestone alleyways; tiled villa roofs provide a splash of red against the verdant hillside; busy markets supply the essentials for a delicious cuisine; and the sounds of folk songs and calypso bands fill the air.

The Virgin Islands being among the most popular cruise ship destinations in the Caribbean has meant that the port towns of Charlotte Amalie, Christiansted and Frederiksted are usually swamped with newly arrived passengers in a frenzy of shopping and dining. Main beaches are seldom deserted, and the key reef areas are often a flurry of flippers and snorkels. Luxury resorts and fine hotels share the streets with old colonial architecture. Yet it is still possible to escape the crowds and find that bit of elusive paradise, to relax away from the divers and sailors, the sightseers, the ecological tour groups, and the shoppers.

Keystone has earned a reputation as "all things to all skiers," with differing terrain across 3 mountains. A system of interconnected high-speed lifts and gondolas make it easy to move around. There are plenty of beginner slopes, so don't worry if you're not an expert! You'll be particularly thrilled with the largest single-mountain night skiing venue in North America and the only such place in Colorado! Formerly a "Skiers Only" destination, Keystone now welcomes snowboarders and offers a variety of winter sports, including tubing, and ice skating on 5 acres of frozen lake.

Lift tickets from Keystone are also valid at Breckenridge and at Vail/Beaver Creek (on specified days), via the Mountain Passport that helps maximize your vacation. You can also take a cross-country ski trek through the wilderness of the Arapaho National Forest, zoom down the 2,000-foot drop of the mountains, or capitalize on the different family and children's activities in charming Keystone Village. River Run is the newest, most convenient village and the most popular. It is within walking distance of the gondola, shopping, and restaurants. When the snow melts, Keystone offers an entirely new array of outdoor activities, including mountain biking and river rafting. No matter the season, Keystone is a play-all-day utopia!

Destination Information:
Salt Lake City is the gateway to Utah's fantastic and famous ski resorts. Not a ski destination itself, the city has the ambiance and facilities typical to a sophisticated mid-western city. Salt Lake City's Wasatch Mountains are home to 7 world-class ski resorts, all within 30 to 45 minutes from the Salt Lake Valley. An abundance of beautiful sunny days, varied terrain to suit skiers of all levels, and quick access up the canyons make Salt Lake City a great home base for your next ski vacation!

Some of the smaller ski areas closest to Salt Lake City include:

Alta: Alta, Utah is just one of the ski areas in Little Cottonwood Canyon. It's known for its deep powder, rugged terrain, and spectacular scenery. The area's stats are impressive with its vertical of 2,020 feet and over 2,200 skiable acres with 12 lifts – including one detachable quad, three triples, four doubles and five surface -- that get skiers to 50 trails. Snowmaking covers 50 acres, although with an average yearly snowfall of 500 inches, it isn't often needed. Terrain offers something for everyone: 25 percent beginner, 40 percent intermediate, and 35 percent advanced. At first glance, Alta looks intimidating, but there is probably no finer place to learn powder skiing. It's an easy 45-minute drive from both Salt Lake City and Park City.

Brighton: Brighton sits at the top of Big Cottonwood Canyon, just a short 35-minute drive from Salt Lake City. Tow-rope skiing started in Utah here in 1936, making Brighton Utah's oldest operating ski resort. With over 850 skiable acres, Brighton has slowly built up one of Utah's most popular ski areas. The variety of terrain at Brighton is most impressive, plenty for all ability levels to enjoy. The trails often mix back and forth between bowls, chutes, open tree skiing and wide cruisers, creating an endless combination of skiing opportunities around the mountain.

Solitude: Solitude offers the crisp taste of some of the greatest snow on earth, in a peaceful, under-developed setting. Great powder and incredible terrain bring snowboarders and skiers back year after year. Immaculately groomed runs, virtually no lift lines and champagne white terrain define Solitude Mountain Resort. The Wasatch Mountains provide seclusion and intimacy at this village-like resort, as skiers peacefully enjoy stretches of Honeycomb Canyon in complete solitude. All of Solitude Mountain Resort's 1,200 acres are boarder friendly. Riders find wide open bowls under spectacular cliffs, open glades, and tight tree turns throughout Solitude's challenging terrain.

Park City: Park City is blessed with three key ski areas: Deer Valley® Resort, Park City Mountain Resort, and The Canyons. Utah's Park City area, just 37 miles from Salt Lake City, was on the world's center stage when it hosted the 2002 Winter Olympics. Perfect snow, ideal terrain, and incredible facilities made the area an eminently successful choice. Those same features now make ski vacations the best they can be. The mountains hosts 33 lifts, 5,050 skiiable acres, and 350 inches of average annual snowfall. Park City, of course, has also been famous since 1981 as the home of Robert Redford's hugely successful Sundance Film Institute & Festival. "The cry of 'Silver!" brought thousands to Park City in the 1870s, but today it's the thrill of skiing, biking, hiking, and other outdoor adventures that keeps the town bustling.

Snowbird: Snowbird is a small ski resort just 25 miles from Salt Lake City. Although a quieter and more intimate resort than many others in the area, skiers still find plenty of deep powder, dramatic terrain, and wide-open bowls. There are 13 lifts, over 2,500 skiable acres, and an average of 500 inches of annual snow. At Snowbird, families, couples, and singles alike take advantage of idyllic terrain for skiers and snowboarders, along with a 125-person aerial tram (only 7 minutes to the top of the mountain), a tubing hill, heli-skiing, and an ice-skating rink.

Destination Information:

Jamaica's rich history stretches back beyond the 15th century, and includes the settlements of the gentle Arawak Indians (who named the island Xaymaca), Spanish mariners, English conquerors, and Asian migrants, all of whom added to the multi-ethnic heritage of this Caribbean island.

Modern Jamaica is the land of reggae and rum, wearing a mantle of roughshod romance that attracts travelers the world over looking to escape the routine of daily life.

The landscape is a mosaic of palmed golden beaches and a beautiful mountainous interior. Once the crown jewel of the British sugar empire, its coastal plains and lofty jungles are still dotted with colonnaded mansions, thriving plantations, and ruins of others that did not survive the slave rebellions.

Many of the remaining mansions are now opulent inns flanked not only by the sugar fields, but also by golf courses, while the beaches that once harbored ruthless, notorious pirates now harbor vacationers seeking the perfect tan.

And you'll note that music is the heartbeat of Jamaica; nearly everywhere you go you feel its rhythm pulsing through the air, the marketplaces, through the locals and, soon enough, through you.

For vacationers with a free and festive spirit, Jamaica is your place to shine!

Tourism Travel to Mexico remains Safe

2009-04-22T07:45:00.000-07:00

Tourism Travel to Mexico remains Safe - Info regarding the State Department Alert

The recent alert referred to a rising crime rate related to drug trafficking - please note that our traditional tourism destinations are not impacted by this. The traditional tourist areas, such as Cancun, Riviera Maya, Los Cabos and Puerto Vallarta and so on are not included in this alert statement.

The alert refers Mexico/U.S. border towns, such as Tijuana, Ciudad Juarez and Nuevo Laredo,which are located on the borders in Texas, California and Arizona. We do not carry product in these areas.

In fact, Leslie Bassett, Deputy Chief of Mission of the U.S. Embassy in Mexico City, declared that the intention of the alert is to inform of that the change in crime is specific only to certain border towns and is happening as it does in other nations. She clarified that in no way does this alert seek to negatively portray the tourist destinations.

The alert is temporary and does not advise travelers against visiting the many safe
destinations that we serve. Please also note that this was not an advisory or warning, which is more serious. Lastly, this was not a new publication from the State Department, but rather an update to an alert that had been sent out a year ago..

Of course, as we all know, passengers traveling any where should exercise safety and stay in legitimate tourist areas.

Thank you for your support!

COUPLES RESORTS LEADS JAMAICA'S EARTH DAY EFFORTS

MONTEGO BAY, JAMAICA - April 14, 2009 – As companies continue to grow and use more resources, Couples Resorts, one of Jamaica's first luxury all-inclusives, has developed a long history of dedication to the environment, resulting in a 10% decrease in electricity consumption and a 15% decrease in water consumption over the past two years. In honor of Earth Day (April 22), Couples Resorts is organizing a country-wide effort among its four properties, all Green Globe certified, in Negril and Ocho Rios, to become Jamaica's most eco-friendly resort. Couples Resorts recently created a Web site page offering great green tips such as organic recipes, as well as information about its green practices. In addition, all four properties are implementing programs which include volunteer activities for guests, spa treatments using local and organic materials and exciting shows and activities designed to raise awareness and reduce the resorts' impact on the environment.

"We at Couples Resorts strive to take advantage of our properties' incredible biodiversity by incorporating it into our mission of creating the most romantic place in the world," said Randy Russell, Chief Romance Officer of Couples Resorts. "We have always, and will always, do whatever we can to preserve the beautiful Jamaican jungle and azure Caribbean Sea that help to create the passion and romance Couples Resorts is known for."

Educational projects such as mandatory reef protection for all those participating in water sports, and the use of only recyclable glass, cardboard and plastics have already been implemented by environmental managers employed by each Couples Resorts property. The use of environmentally friendly cleaning products, energy efficient air conditioners and light bulbs, as well as low flow toilets, showerheads and taps helps to reduce the amount of energy and greenhouse gases used. For more information about Couples Resorts' green practices, as well as a full listing of the programs that will be implemented in honor of Earth Day 2009 and great tips on how to stay green, please visit www.couples.com/earth.
