Washington DC: is a typical capital city - full of history. Founded in 1791, George Washington himself chose this area to be the world's first-ever planned capital city. Home to the Government of the United States, there are many governmental buildings and monuments to see here. Visitors will, though, find more than just politics here. There are an abundance of multi-cultural restaurants, parks, gardens, museums, lodgings, accommodation and theaters and plenty of historical sites to experience in Washington DC, and the Metro railway system makes it relatively easy to get around. The star attraction here though is the White House - home to the US presidents over the years.

Toronto Hotel
Toronto: This once obscure Canadian city has today become one of Canada's most cultural and exciting cities. With its colorful ethnic mix, rich history and breathtaking architecture, Toronto is sure to keep any tourist amused. The best place to see this beautiful city is from the top of the CN Tower. This is the tallest, freestanding structure in the world and from the top you can see all of Toronto spread out before you. Casa Loma is a real 20th-century castle and kids will love the creep passageways and secret panels. One of the world's most ethnically diverse cities, it is home to more than 80 ethnic communities from Africa, Asia, and Europe. Toronto is also the business centre of Canada.
Tampa Hotel
Tampa: Florida is not all Mickey Mouse and Miami Vice: the stunning Tampa Bay area goes to prove it. Located in the beautiful Gulf of Mexico, Tampa is recognized as one of the fastest growing cities in the USA. It certainly has a lot to offer including a heart-stopping amusement park called Busch Gardens, sun-soaked beaches and a buzzing Hispanic district (Ybor City), which is now a clubber's paradise.
Tampa also offers a lot more than hedonistic party pleasures. There are educational activities including the Museum of Science and Industry, Tampa Museum of Art and Florida Aquarium. For sports fans, a trip to Tampa is the perfect excuse to catch the Buccaneers in action.
Seattle Hotel
Seattle: is the biggest city in the pacific northwest of the United States. There are many reasons why people would choose to travel to Seattle, but coffee must be one of the most popular. Seattle is best known for its coffee-loving inhabitants. It is thanks to the coffee-drinking population of Seattle that we now have Starbucks - the first Starbucks coffeehouse was opened here in the early 1970s. Seattle coffeehouses are part of everyday life and are inexpensive, relaxed places to go to while away a few hours of your day. Seattle's landmark - the Space Needle, a 600ft rocket style observation station and restaurant - is something everyone must do if you can brave the heights!
San Francisco Hotel
San Francisco: San Francisco is one of the USA's most attractive cities and is probably one of the most popular. Up and down seem to be the main directions here and although the almost vertical streets may seem daunting - don't let them put you off! These streets offer some of the best views of San Francisco Bay area and the Golden Gate Bridge. San Francisco offers a remarkable number of cultural attractions and world famous landmarks set against a background of extraordinary natural beauty. Including the beautiful Angel Island and Alcatraz, the once 'escape-proof' prison (take the ferry from the Fishermans Wharf to go on the tour). Union Square is bordered by fashionable stores, major retailers and hotels, lodgings and the odd cheap deal, and of course its one of the city's major shopping areas.
San Diego Hotel
San Diego: This coastal city can be found in the southwestern corner of California, close to the border with Mexico. With around seventy miles of beaches, San Diego is the classic Californian beach resort. One of San Diego's largest attractions is the world-famous San Diego Zoo. Home to more than 3000 animals in beautifully landscaped gardens, highlights of the Zoo include the Tiger River exhibits and the Gorilla Tropics. Sea World is another of San Diego's best-loved attractions and Shamu, its resident killer whale, has now become the unofficial symbol of the city. The most thrilling part of San Diego is there is always something new to discover and enjoy.
San Antonio Hotel
San Antonio: is the most visited city in Texas and it is not hard to see why. A beautiful and atmospheric city, San Antonio has a mixture of different ethnic groups and the main languages spoken here are English and Spanish. To the northwest of San Antonio lies Hill Country, which is rich in stunning landscapes and fascinating history. Most visitors flock to the Paso del Rio or the River Walk where you will find the usual big city hotels, alongside smaller lodgings and accommodation, shops and cafes lining the sidewalk. The Alamo is San Antonio's most famous attraction and is first on the list of most visitors to the city. The Witte Museum, which focuses on Texas culture, history and the natural environment, is also well worth a visit.
