Pink Jeep Tour- Sedona, AZ
I tend to avoid tourist activities when I travel, especially ones that identify you as a tourist. So, despite visiting Sedona many times over the years, I never took a Pink Jeep Tour. It seemed silly. Then I did, and realized I had definately been missing out.

McMichael Canadian Art Collection- Kleinburg, ON
Much like the Hudson River School before them, the Group of Seven painted what they loved. In their case, it was the Canadian Shield, in all its glory. McMichael Gallery not only has a magnificent collection of their work, it is also the final resting place of several of the members.

Mistico Arenal Hanging Bridges- La Fortuna, Costa Rica
Admittedly, a hanging bridge park sounds like a tourist trap. A disappointing, commercial enterprise, not worth the time or money. But in the case of Mistico, it is an absolutely enthralling, immersive experience with 15 different bridges (6 hanging) along a two mile trail- which is absolutely worth the price of admission.

Toronto Heli Tours- Toronto, ON
The most exhilarating way to a explore a city is from above. Observation towers provide a fabulous, fixed perspective of the streets below, but for those that want to be fully immersed in the landscape, there is nothing like the view from a helicopter.
-
The Royal Horse Show- Toronto, ON
The Royal Horse Show is arguably the best part of the illustrious Royal Agricultural Winter Fair. It is certainly the most glamourous and dramatic. The largest indoor show of its kind, featuring the best equestrians in the world, it's not to be missed.
