Beginning from the pier, you’ll drive through the streets of Isafjordur and out along the coastal road for a tour of wondrously remote Bolungarvik, a fishing village towered over by its surrounding mountains. Nearby, you’ll stop at the outdoor Ósvör Museum, where a century-old fisherman’s hut has been restored, complete with the tools of the trade – and the fisherman.
On another leg of the journey, you’ll find yourself up amidst breathtaking views of the magnificent mountains of the Djup, largest of the West Fjords and the Buna River. Not far from that spot, you’ll stop to admire a beautiful stepped waterfall in Tunguskogur and take an opportunity to taste the freshest, clearest mountain water you may ever have encountered. Back in Isafjordur, you’ll stop in at the Maritime and Folk Museum, which calls one of the town’s oldest and best-preserved houses its home. The museum presents an excellent collection of artifacts related to the region’s maritime history – as well as a sizable accordion collection. Gotta have something to do during those long winters.

OVERVIEW
Enjoy a jaunt around Cooktown and get an excellent introduction to this frontier town in Queensland’s far north. The town’s name and early fame are both tied to one pivotal event that took place here in 1770: British explorer and cartographer Captain James Cook’s ship Endeavour smacked into the Great Barrier Reef offshore. Limping into what became known as the Endeavour River to beach the vessel and repair the damage, he inadvertently established the first non-indigenous settlement in Australia. You’ll travel to the top of Grassy Hill to see a monument commemorating his landing and marvel at stunning 360-degree views out to the water. It’s a scene little changed from what Cook would have seen for himself 250 years ago as he scanned the reef-line for a safe route back out to open sea with his repaired ship. At the James Cook Museum, housed in a grand former convent built with 1880s gold rush wealth, see actual relics from the Endeavour, including her anchor and a cannon jettisoned during the grounding. Later, an amble through the Botanic Gardens introduces you to exotic Aussie flora like chocolate pudding trees, jackfruit, blue ginger and the Cooktown Orchid, state emblem of Queensland.
HIGHLIGHTS
• Enjoy a guided overview of Australia’s first non-indigenous settlement, founded temporarily and by accident by Captain James Cook.
• Drive through town and up to the top of Grassy Hill, where Cook saw much the same views you will.
• Visit a museum brimming with artifacts from Cook’s ship, from journals to an anchor and cannon.
• Take a relaxed stroll through tropical botanic gardens established in 1878 and see colorful, curious plants long-used for food and medicine by local aboriginal peoples.
HELPFUL HINTS
• Wear weather-appropriate clothing.
• Flat, comfortable walking shoes are recommended.

It’s a beautiful setting with an alluring medieval character, as you will discover while navigating its narrow, cobbled streets. As French author Guy de Maupassant wrote of his stay in 1883, “Were a man to pass a single day in Sicily and ask, ‘What must one see?’ I would answer him without hesitation, Taormina.” Among the highlights are the Arabian-influenced Palazzo Corvaja and the ruins of a 2nd-century Greek theater. It sits on a seaside hilltop with a view of Mount Etna that is so inspiring that it can detract from the entertainers that still perform there in the summer. After visiting, you will enjoy free time to wander about the areas that interest you the most. You might take in the views from the fragrant public garden or shop along boutique-lined Corso Umberto. The most popular merchandise includes designer fashions, jewelry and colorful ceramic pine cones, a Sicilian symbol of hospitality.
