Expedia has put the magic back into travel with a series of well-done short destination videos featuring some of the most exciting places in the world. Let’s take a quick ride around the globe and have a look at some of them.

London

London is one of Europe´s great cities, catering to every imaginable taste with its endless diversity. Whether you are looking for a rich history dating back more than two thousand years or prefer lively street markets and pop culture; whether you want to see classic iconic landmarks like Buckingham Palace or modern architecture like The Shard skyscraper, London will leave you inspired. Expedia has made a video that does this cosmopolitan city full justice.

For more information about London, please visit the city’s official visitor guide visitlondon.com.

Bangkok

This Asian megacity offers an alluring mix of tradition and modernity, with an endless kaleidoscope of street markets, temples and skyscrapers.

Leipzig

The Leipzig video in this Expedia series definitely has a dreamlike quality to it. But is travel not always some kind of a dream?

Miami

The tropical, laid-back atmosphere of Miami comes across in this video. It is a city blessed with beautiful beaches and a warm climate that attracts lots of vacationers from the Americas and around the world. Home to a multiethnic population, Miami is a fusion of many cultural influences. Miami´s South Beach is known for its hip lifestyle and the city is a gateway to many of Florida´s highlights, including Everglades National Park and the Florida Keys farther south.

Bali

An island video could not be missing in this great series and Expedia wisely chose to include the Indonesian island of Bali.

An initial source of orientation to prepare a trip to this Indonesian gem is the site of the Bali Tourism Board balitourismboard.or.id.

Rio de Janeiro

Oh, Rio! Sugar loaf, fabulous beaches framed by a spectacular cityscape, soccer, Cristo Redentor, favelas and the high-spirited people of Brazil….it’s all in there.

Rotterdam

The Dutch city of Rotterdam is home to the biggest port in Europe, a vast complex stretching out over 40 km, and has a lot of interesting modern architecture. This is a place of international trade and commerce that charms visitors in its own unique way.

Singapore

Singapore is a melting pot of different cultures which are reflected in the cuisine, places of worship and languages found here. In this modern and prosperous city state, pockets of traditional culture still flourish, reflecting both Asian (namely Chinese, Malay and Indian) as well as European influences.

Expedia has done a great job with these videos. You can find more of them on YouTube. My only wish would be that some places on the African continent are also included. Let´s not forget that Africa is attracting an increasing number of tourists and has lots of exciting places to offer. It seems that Australia & New Zealand have not been covered yet, either.
