John Wesley Powell described the Grand Canyon as “the great unknown.” Today, as you peer into its chasm from almost any vantage point on the rim, it appears so enormous, so remote and severe, it seems that no one could ever know it. But the stunning views from the rim of Grand Canyon National Park are only the beginning of the story. This tour will tell you the rest!

On a busy canal lined street in Amsterdam, Anne Frank and her Jewish family hid from the Nazis near the end of WWII. Anne Frank wrote accounts of their lives in this confinement. Learning from the one radio they shared and quietly listened to, Anne hoped her diary would be published. It was published posthumously, by her father; Anne's only relative to survive the Nazi death camps.

As international master of wine Rob Geddes explains, every bottle of wine is a book that tells three stories: where it came from, who made it, and what it's made of. But - and here's the rub - each of the stories comes in coded form, and you would be wise to seek an experienced guide who can help teach you to read them. In this audio course, Rob gives you a key to decipher one - and perhaps the most influential - of the codes, the one that tells you what the wine is made of.

Audiolibro tratto dalla versione cartacea illustrata omonima sulle fontane di Roma. Questo "A passeggio per le 100 Fontane dei 22 Rioni" versione audio, è stato immaginato per essere gestito da un telefonino o da un qualsiasi altro supporto portatile, per delle belle e particolari passeggiate piene di tutte le curiosità e dati, di collezionismo storico culturale, su tutte le architetture d'acqua pubbliche, sia piccolissime che piccole e grandi.

Ci troveremo a passeggiare nella Parigi del Seicento, accompagnati da guide d'eccezione, “persone di mondo” colte ma non dotte, educate a conversare in società con straordinaria naturalezza, garbo e finezza. Leggerle è quasi come ascoltarle, perché sapevano mettere sulla carta il loro parlato senza appannarlo, dentro memorie, lettere, libelli. I tre accompagnatori principali sono Retz, Mademoiselle de Montpensier, e Mazzarino.

Ci sono molti modi di visitare una città e forse Firenze, per la ricchezza architettonica e artistica che la caratterizza, è una di quelle che si presta a mille percorsi alternativi. Ma sicuramente tra questi, uno dei più interessanti, è rappresentato dalla passeggiata che, seguendo i passi di Dante, ci porta a incontrare quegli edifici sacri e civili, quei palazzi privati e pubblici, che formavano la sua città, quella Firenze da lui tanto amata e tanto odiata.

Either you are travellers, explorers of the unknown in the world and in the life, or rather tourists looking for souvenirs, more or less concrete; or, as it more often happens, a mix of the two types: this audioguide shall drive your steps just where your heart is directed to. The brush-strokes will sketch a painting whose author shall be you, because, even if in a short time, they will tune in your soul with your steps, along the streets of Florence.

For most, the name 'Lucky Plaza' alone is inseparable from its association with the local Filipino community; to say the words 'Lucky Plaza' is to mean 'Little Manila'. It's a place most Singaporeans would rarely think to visit, other than as another place to eat at when in Orchard Road (and...

Südtirol - das ist ein Paradies für Berg- und Wintersportler, Erholungsuchende und Feinschmecker, im Sommer wie im Winter. Denn hier, zwischen den Ortler Alpen und den steil aufragenden Felstürmen der "Drei Zinnen" in den Sextner Dolomiten, wechseln sich alpines und mediterranes Ambiente auf engstem Raum ab. Es regnet weniger als in den umliegenden Alpenregionen und die Sonne scheint länger. Im milden Klima der nördlichsten Provinz Italiens gedeihen hervorragende Weine.
