#3 - Mykonos Islands 

Mykonos in the Greek Isles is the place to go if history is your thing.

Full of ancient ruins including a cemetery and market place dating back thousands of years, this is the site of the ancient city of Mykonos that you studied about in high school. Enjoy the sophisticated and really happening night life or walk the stone paved streets or just sit back and enjoy the picture perfect whitewashed villages. Local accommodations offer something for every taste and budget.

#2 - South Africa 

Walk with the Lions or Sip Martinis on the beach

South Africa has something for everyone! Five star hotels and restaurants can be found in Cape Town along with world class shopping. Their wine region offers top notch varietals that any wine connoisseur would be delighted to serve. Next, for the animal lovers in the family, visit Kruger National Park where native wildlife can be seen in their natural habitats. Take a safari drive through and come almost too close to these beautiful creatures.

#1 - Bora Bora, Tahiti 

Jump into the terquoise lagoon, right from your hut.

Tahiti is the place to be if you are truly in need of some serious R&R. Up till only recently Tahiti's resorts boasted no communications of any kind - rooms didn't even have TVs. These are still around if that's what you'd like, but resorts now are totally 21st Century with all the 5 star amenities you could possibly crave, right at your finger tips. Stay in Bora Bora and see some of the sites made immortal by 1940's movie icons such as Humphrey Bogart. The Island of Bora Bora is simply the most beautiful island in the world. Does it get better than staying in one of these over the water huts, jump in whenever you like. Who needs TV in paradise? I don't!
