Traveling with a child can be wonderful, but there are quite a few adventure trips that are better done before you start a family or go solo with your partner. And here are 7 great ideas.
Here are 7 travel ideas to treat yourself to before you have children or you go there alone with your partner.
Iceland
Of course, there are plenty of things to do with your kids in Iceland, but when it comes to big adrenaline adventures, it's better to go there without them. Go diving in the Silfra rift, which is cut between the North American and Eurasian plates, go to Thrihnukagigur volcano or explore ice caves. After your adventures, relax in the geothermal pools and saunas.
Paris
Paris is the city of light, love and romance, so it is an ideal place to visit without children. Walk the streets of Paris hand in hand and stop at French bakeries and cheese shops, where you can buy things for a picnic in the Jardin des Tuileries or under the Eiffel Tower. Take the opportunity to spend hours shopping in the Marais or to wander around the Musee D'Orsay, the Center Georges Pompidou or the Louvre. Treat yourself to an aperitif on Montparnasse and a digestif on the left bank of the Seine.
Route 66
Welcome to a nearly 4,000-mile road trip through the American countryside and history! It takes you down the Main Street of America from Los Angeles to the Grand Canyon and the Colorado River, right into the heart of the Rust Belt. You can choose to drive non-stop from California to Chicago or stop at sights and roadside bars. Enjoy the journey and the meditative sound of the open road without the questions: "Are we there yet?" that could interrupt the idyll.
Monte Carlo
Live out your Bond dreams and travel to the glamorous world of Monte Carlo. The elegant district within the country of Monaco is one of the brightest jewels of the French Riviera. Find your inner 007 in one of the casinos, watch the changing of the guard at the Prince's Palace, choose a fashion item at the Pavilions Monte Carlo or reenact the famous scene between Grace Kelly and Cary Grant from the movie To Catch A Thief (1955) and rent a convertible to drive along the Grand Corniche coastal road.
Tokyo
There are quite a few things that would simply delight children in Tokyo (Hello Kitty World!), but the city is full of activities aimed primarily at adults. Early in the morning you can go to the Tsukiji fish market or visit the shrine. Treat yourself to sake somewhere in the city and be sure to check out the Tokyo Whiskey Library. Kanda River Cruisers. Try your hand at Japanese cuisine or visit the paradise for kawaii, the Kawaii Monster Café.
Dubai
The jewel of the United Arab Emirates is a serious business center that becomes a playground for adults during 'free' hours. Visit one of the pools in the ultra-luxury hotels, ski in the shopping center or dive in one of the water parks. There is no shortage of Arab markets in Dubai, where you can buy souvenirs in the form of gold or textile products and spices, as well as large shopping centers, such as Mall of the Emirates and Dubai Mall, which has the title of the largest shopping center in the world. Have lunch at one of the best restaurants in the world, see the world's largest aquarium and underwater zoo, go on a desert safari or simply relax on one of the golden beaches of Jumeriah Beach Park.
Oslo-Bergen railway line
To truly appreciate the wonder of a train ride, you need a love of gazing out the window and admiring the scenery. Hop on the Bergensbanen or Bergen Line to experience one of the most beautiful train journeys of 7 hours. The journey begins in Oslo, and along the way you will find almost 500 kilometers of glaciers, fjords, vast valleys and ice-covered mountains.
