Tampa (Florida, USA)

Tampa, Florida's health resort and port at the Gulf of Mexico, today has a population of several hundred thousand and is a city full of contrasts. Visitors can find glittering sky-scrapers as well as the traditional university and the historic Cuban district Ybor City. Sights worth visiting include the Children's Museum of Tampa, the Museum of Art, the Museum of Science and Industry and the History Center. We also highly recommend a visit to the cigar factory "Tampa Rico Cigar Company" as well as 'Busch Gardens', an African-themed funpark with shops and restaurants. 'Water babies' will love the huge water funpark, 'Adventure Island', and the Florida Aquarium.

New Orleans (Louisiana, USA)

|
|
|
|
This city in Mississippi, with a population of almost 500,000 (1.3 million as a metropolitan area) is considered to be the least American of all the US cities. The former capital of the state of Louisiana refuses to follow trends and continues to live by its old traditions. French, Spanish and Creole influences are just as clearly apparent as the African traditions of the former slaves of the cotton fields of Louisiana. Sights include: Audubon Park, Congo Square, French Quarter (Vieux Carré), Royal Street, New Orleans Museum of Art, Superdome (Football Stadium of the New Orleans Saints)

The Mayan name for the port at the Gulf of Mexico is "Yaxactún", meaning "great turtle of stone". Progreso, a quiet town with a population of 50,000 is the most important port of Yucatán and a popular destination for tourists, who love the chic restaurants that line the beach promenade. Here, visitors can enjoy a stroll along the stands selling hand-made traditional souvenirs or spend a day at the beach, - the water here is excellent for swimming or snorkelling since there are no tides or currents. Progreso's 40-metre-high lighthouse, completed in 1891, can be seen from afar.
