The ‘city that never sleeps’ is famous for showing people how to kick up their heels and have fun. So this week we boogie on board The Gold Rush to let you dance the night away in Las Vegas.

Even if you don’t spend a dime on gambling, seeing Vegas at night is an experience. The famous Las Vegas dancers put on a stunning show and every 15 minutes at the elegant Bellagio casino is a dancing fountain display timed to different songs. The Strip is where all the aciton is and it will take you a few hours to walk it, but from gondola rides at the Venetian to a replica Eiffel Tower that you can ride to the top at Paris Casino, you’ll have the world at your feet.

If you are heading to Vegas then make sure you take out decent travel insurance for over 80s to ensure you are not left with huge medical bills that are common in the USA.

The tip is to grab a local paper from your Intrepid leader when you arrive, because inside are coupons that could have you feasting on an all-you-can-eat-buffet for under $5.

War has been the backdrop for many famous movies filmed in Vietnam, but when you explore this extraordinary country you quickly discover its peaceful beauty and traditional charm. Intrepid Express reader Debbie Richardson experienced her own crowning movie moment…

“The highlight of my amazing adventure in Vietnam was definitely our two-night boat trip on Halong Bay. Surprisingly for February, the sun even came out and the mist cleared, what a beautiful place. It’s not hard to imagine why the Oscar-winning movie Indochine was shot here (also in Thailand). We kayaked around the lagoon where the movie was filmed! It was fantastic and my camera never stopped clicking as the sun set over Halong Bay that afternoon!”

If you need travel insurance over 80 to Vietnam then check out travel insurance finders.

Put yourself in the picture for 10 action-packed days on Spirit of Vietnam and if you act fact, you could SAVE 20% on trips departing 22 January or 23 February 2010!

Head to Ghana with Intrepid!

Greater love hath no man than for his football in Ghana. World Cup Fever is sweeping the country and this week’s top trip scores a goal every time!

Ghana has become the first African country to qualify for the 2010 Football World Cup, joining England and Australia in qualification. Ghanaian Captain Michael Essien summed up the country’s passion for the beautiful game, “The people of Ghana wanted us to win and we did not let them down. What a fantastic feeling to be the first African country to qualify for the first World Cup to be staged in Africa.”

Intrepid’s Best of Ghana and Mali is a unique overland trip and the highlight for many is a game of football. It was a close match this month against the locals of Mole Nation Park. It was 5-5 at the end of normal time, but Mole Park FC won the penalty in the shoot-out with Dragoman trip leader Michael missing the decisive penalty – allowing Ghana the bragging rights to have won two important football matches in the last week!

In Sri Lanka you can see the old Bo Tree, which is believed to be a cutting from the tree under which Buddha gained enlightenment. But this is not the country’s most important Buddhist site. Our top trip this week follows the drumming and chanting rituals of pilgrims to reach Dalada Maligawa.

In the cultural town of Kandy you will find Dalada Maligawa, or Temple of the Sacred Tooth, which famously houses one of Buddha’s teeth. Every morning an elaborate ritual is performed to awaken the tooth and streams of pilgrims dressed in white enter the temple to pay their respects to Buddha. On festival days the streets are a fervent display of local culture and colours, as the tooth is placed in a gold box and paraded through town on the back of Sri Lanka’s most majestic elephant.

Sri Lankan culture spans over 2,000 years and remains vibrant and alive, so book your Circle Sri Lanka trip this month and you can take a friend with you for 30% off
