  1. Cancún may be known as an infamous spring-break destination, but you'll be surprised at the plethora of ecotourism options on offer. Dive in!
  2. New York City is possibly one of the most intimidating cities in the world. Busy, sophisticated and sprawling, it is an overwhelming place. What to do? Where? When? How to get there? Even locals can feel out-of-the-loop with so much going on.... Newly minted resident Nick Vivion takes it all in stride. Taking 24 hours to explore his new home, Nick tries to highlight some of the diversity that makes New York one of the best cities in the world.

  3. The Journey from Vancouver to Banff takes in some of the most stunning scenery the world has to offer. In Canada the mountains seem to rise straight up & run for hundreds of miles. The lakes are a bluer blue & the trees a greener green. This is the revoiced version of this movie.

  4. Lonely Planet author Sara Benson is a big fan of Las Vegas. Traditionally a city of dirty little secrets, it's now a high-rolling playground. It's all that you would expect - casinos, strip bars, wedding chapels and $5 steaks but some things you would not - art galleries, the Atomic Testing Museum and a serious underground punk scene.

  5. Lonely Planet author Tom Downs loves New Orleans' soulful, saucy and eccentric nature. Located as far South as geographically possible in the USA, it's only mildly American in flavour, more a gumbo of French, Carribbean and African American. Tourists might flock to Bourbon Street's non-stop carnival but the whole city really knows how to have a great time.

  7. Tony Wheeler, founder of Lonely Planet rediscovers a favourite US holiday resort, Cape Cod, a jut of land a short drive from Boston. With a long sea-faring tradition and great beaches, it's all about getting out on the water. There's a quaint, relaxed feel which is typical of New England and it's place in US history. There's even a replica of the Mayflower to remind you.

  8. From glam wrestling to goths and ancient rituals, Mexico city is one of the most dynamic cities of Central America. Lonely Planet film director Tony Jackson spills the beans on what this wild metropolis has to offer.

  10. Austin, Texas warms the heart of Lonely Planet author Jay Cooke - cold beer, guitars and good friends. A sleepy college town turned into a city of creative, eclectic intellectuals who know their music. Just beware their addition to frisbee golf.

  11. Jenny and Randy spend the holidays in the folds of the Rocky Mountains.
  12. God's Waiting Room no more, Miami is now Buzz City. Blame Miami Vice.

  13. A Double Dog Films Production Direction and Cinematography by Nick Higgins Music by Ed Barguiarena Edited by Nick & Kristina Higgins
  14. Lonely Planet author Steve Slattery gives a character dissection of one of the world's best known cities: LA. Is it weird, self-indulgent, hip, down-to-earth, certifiably insane, or just mildly eccentric? You be the judge. (Make mine a double decaf-diet latte with a slice of lemon).
