Alsace is a famous region in north eastern France that’s been producing wine for centuries. Lauren LeBrun from the Expedia Viewfinder blog shows us why it’s one of the best areas in France for wine tasting and village hopping. The region stretches across 40,000 acres and more than 100 villages. Riquewihr is a town in central Alsace that dates back to medieval times. Being there makes you feel like you’ve traveled back in time! Walk down the cobblestone streets and you’ll see timber-framed, brightly-painted buildings. The architecture has been carefully preserved throughout the centuries, so it appears almost identical to how it looked in the 1500s. The town is packed with restaurants, shops, and wine tasting rooms. Here you’ll find local favorites such as tarte flamb?e, French crepes, and fragrant cheeses. But one of the main reasons why people visit Alsace is to wine taste. The region is known for its Riesling wines, which are actually drier than other Rieslings produced around the world. Go to any village on the Alsace wine route and you’ll be able to taste a variety of wines from family owned vineyards. If you love food, wine, and charming villages, then Alsace is the perfect place for you. Cheers to your next vacation in France! BLOG: PINTEREST: a

St. Petersburg to step into a world of forested beauty when you arrive at Seoraksan National Park. Located in Gangwon-do, South Korea, Seoraksan National Park tours are popular with both residents of Korea and international travelers. It is a frequent destination for those staying in nearby Sokcho, a city renowned for its natural hot springs and mountainous surroundings. Seoraksan National Park’s 63 square miles are largely untouched by humans, so it’s easy to immerse yourself in the quiet beauty of nature. Your Seoraksan National Park sightseeing begins at the park gates, where a towering bronze statue of Buddha awaits you. Take some pictures or place an offering at his feet, and then head into the park proper. It invites you to spend hours wandering along the many paths that wind through the park, crossing streams and winding beneath a canopy that might be thick with green or red leaves, depending on the season. You can even take a gondola ride to the top of the mountain. From the gondola—which is enclosed and climate-controlled—you can see all of Seoraksan National Park, so this is the place to grab some of those gorgeous landscape pictures to post on your social media.

This video for Kilmainham Gaol Vacation Travel Guide is one of our older productions, but we wanted to share it with you to get some feedback on how these older clips compare to the more recent travel guides we’ve shot. Below are some links to those recent videos. Feel free to compare with this clip and comment below to let us know which ones you prefer, and what else you’d love to see from Expedia on YouTube! St. Petersburg tour of Kilmainham Gaol, in Dublin, is a journey into Ireland’s past. This imposing structure was built in 1796, and quickly established a reputation as one of Ireland’s most fearsome prisons due to its poor living conditions and the brutal treatment of its occupants. After its abandonment in 1924, it sat for many years before refurbishment and conversion to a museum in the 1980s. While it showcases a rather dark portion of Irish history, it’s nonetheless a major draw for those curious about the nation’s past, and Kilmainham Gaol sightseeing is always fascinating. The gaol’s cells were not segregated; up to five men, women, and even children as young as seven could be held together in each small chamber. Wander through dim, narrow corridors lit only by a handful of lamps and try to imagine scores of other inhabitants moving beside you. The center atrium looks pristine now, but during the prison’s heyday, it would have been choked with prisoners being shuffled to their cells or off to the colonies. Each cell had one candle to provide illumination and warmth, and each candle had to last for two weeks—needless to say, much of the time these cells were cold, miserable places. Don’t forget to explore the rest of Dublin once you finish up at Kilmainham Gaol. Directly across the street from the prison is the Irish Museum of Modern Art and its Garden of Gallerie

Temple Bar is the lively, sometimes rambunctious entertainment district of Dublin, Ireland. When you’re ready to shop, eat, or dance the night away, this is the area of the city you need to frequent. A tour of Temple Bar reveals narrow cobblestone streets, many of them virtually unchanged since medieval times. Despite its seemingly ancient layout, you’ll find a thoroughly modern assortment of restaurants, nightclubs, cafes, and shops taking up residence here. Your Temple Bar sightseeing will no doubt take you to the River Liffey, which runs through Dublin. When you’re ready to explore a little of Ireland’s history, you’ll find the Jeanie Johnston Tall Ship and Famine Museum right on the Liffey. This replica of an 1847 tall ship provides tours of its cramped interiors and offers a glimpse of life for Irish immigrants who made their way across the Atlantic. Adjacent to Temple Bar is Trinity College, better known as Ireland’s oldest university. This beautiful campus is not to be missed; explore the classic architecture of Parliament Square, or wander through the Campanile—just make sure you don’t do so just before finals if you are a student, as rumor has it such an action leads to bad luck.

Below are some links to those recent videos. Feel free to compare with this clip and comment below to let us know which ones you prefer, and what else you’d love to see from Expedia on YouTube! St. Petersburg you arrive in Deoksugung Palace, you’re leaving the busy streets of Seoul, Korea, and entering a tranquil world defined by ancient tradition. The palace has long been a fixture for locals and visitors alike, thanks to its extraordinary architecture, rich history, and colorful guardsmen. A tour of Deoksugung Palace will reveal its origins. Built during the Joseon Dynasty, Deoksugung Palace did not actually start out as a proper palace. It was originally constructed as the residence of a royal relative, but in 1592 it became a haven for King Seonju after all his other palaces in Seoul were destroyed by the Japanese. Over the centuries, Deoksugung Palace has been inhabited sporadically; starting in the 1600s, it was largely abandoned until 1897, when it was again utilized full-time by the royal family. A major part of Deoksugung Palace sightseeing is the Changing of the Guard Ceremony. Guards glad in brilliant gold and purple uniforms perform this ceremony as they switch shifts three times a day. This coincides with the opening and shutting of the Daehanmun Gate, and is also accompanied by performances on musical instruments. Once the Changing of the Guard Ceremony is complete, guards will often pose for photographs with visitors, so make sure you’ve got your camera handy. What fascinated you about Deoksugung Palace?

Anyone with an interest in hiking or mountain climbing must embark on a Mount Kinabalu National Park tour. This Malaysian gem is visually stunning, and is also one of the most easily accessible peaks in the world. Sightseeing in Mount Kinabalu National Park—known as the “Home of the Spirits” to the locals due to the ethereal, ghostlike mist that curls around the summit—will take you through multiple climatic zones. Hike through rainforests, look over a bed of clouds, watch the sunset from a sub-alpine meadow, and gaze over the park from the top of the summit, all in one day at Mount Kinabalu National Park. Moderately fit individuals can climb to the summit and back in two days, staying overnight at a lodge when you reach the top. When you awaken the next day, watch the sunrise from almost 2.5 miles above sea level—it’s a truly spectacular sight. Those who aren’t keen on hiking up the mountainside can wander through the rainforest closer to ground level, learning about the vast ecosystem that has made Mount Kinabalu National Park such an important UNESCO World Heritage Site.

This video for Dunluce Castle Vacation Travel Guide is one of our older productions, but we wanted to share it with you to get some feedback on how these older clips compare to the more recent travel guides we’ve shot. Below are some links to those recent videos. Feel free to compare with this clip and comment below to let us know which ones you prefer, and what else you’d love to see from Expedia on YouTube! St. Petersburg a peek into history, pay a visit to Dunluce Castle, located on the coast of Northern Ireland. This crumbling medieval stronghold was first constructed in the 13th century, though historians believe it was built over the bones of an even older Irish fort. The castle changed hands and was often modified until the 1600s, after which it was largely abandoned. Dunluce Castle perches atop a basalt cliff, and is accessible only via a narrow bridge. A Dunluce Castle tour is a great opportunity to explore the ruins, which include two drum towers—the distinctive round protrusions seen on so many castles. Wander across the old cobblestone courtyard and look out over the sea, or make your way down the steps to the wishing well. Whatever you do, don’t forget to stop by the mermaid’s cave during your Dunluce Castle sightseeing. The cave is a remarkable natural cathedral located beneath the fortress; stand still and listen—can you hear the ghosts of the sailors reportedly stranded in here? If you’d really like a taste of the castle’s lore, book a guided tour in advance to learn about some of the local myths and legends. You may even get to hear about the recently rediscovered Dunluce Town that is currently being excavated. What’s your favorite story about Dunluce Castle?

Kate Thomas from the Expedia Viewfinder travel blog shares what it's like to experience afternoon tea in London. She enjoyed a budget afternoon tea at Bea's of Bloomsbury. The cultural tradition began in the 1800s and it was a way for the upper class to stave off hunger pains between breakfast and dinner. Every afternoon tea is unique, but they all follow a general template. It includes three tiers of goodness. The first is full of savory sandwiches. The top two tiers have sweets like cupcakes, scones, lemon squares and raspberry marshmallows. Check out more travel fun on our blog: us on social media: TWITTER: FACEBOOK: INSTAGRAM: PINTEREST: a

This video for Trinity College Vacation Travel Guide is one of our older productions, but we wanted to share it with you to get some feedback on how these older clips compare to the more recent travel guides we’ve shot. Below are some links to those recent videos. Feel free to compare with this clip and comment below to let us know which ones you prefer, and what else you’d love to see from Expedia on YouTube! St. Petersburg College, first founded by Queen Elizabeth I in 1592, is both a prominent center of education and a tourist destination. Located in the center of Dublin, Ireland, Trinity College alumni include Bram Stoker and Oscar Wilde. The campus sits across from the former Irish Houses of Parliament, and these buildings, among several others, have given the school its distinguished, instantly recognizable appearance. A tour of Trinity College will reveal a number of classically styled buildings and vast amounts of green space. You’ll no doubt stop at the Campanile, a bell tower and one of the standout points of the campus. We don’t recommend passing through the Campanile when the bell tolls; superstitious students believe they will fail their exams if it goes off while they’re beneath it. If you’re not a student here, or simply do not fear bad luck, feel free to laugh in the face of danger and walk beneath it while it rings. Outside of Trinity College, you’ll find a wealth of things to do. The campus is right near Grafton Street, famed for its many shopping and eating opportunities. In addition, you should pay a visit to the National Wax Museum, or step aboard the sailing ship Jeanie Johnston, a replica of the vessels that carried hundreds of thousands of immigrants to the New World in the 1800s. Will you walk through the Campanile? Visit our Trinity College t

The beauty of Ireland is perfectly represented during a tour of Torr Head. This eastern headland is covered with a green carpet of plants, bushes, and trees, and stunning views of the Irish Sea and Antrim County’s lush countryside. There’s a lot of history behind this area; for centuries, Torr Head acted as a watchpoint for Lloyd’s of London, marking the comings and goings of transatlantic shipping. Your Torr Head sightseeing will take you around narrow, winding roads, past small fishing villages and clifftop lookout points. Make sure you bring your camera—on a clear day you can see straight across the North Channel to the Mull of Kintyre, located some 10 miles away in Scotland.
