The island of Taiwan boasts a high-speed rail network and stately, drivable highways. Though these systems provide rapid and comfortable channels for many travelers, the more daring adventurer may want a richer, more intimate experience with the island’s charming vistas, vivid smells, and strong culture. Those who seek an adventure need only to travel around the island by bicycle. On these “Round-the-Island” tours, cyclists cruise through greenswards of rice, rolling mango orchards, and narrow, misty canyons.

Experience Mackinac Island’s tasty treats, vibrant small town, and biking roads. Nestled between the Upper and Lower Peninsulas of Michigan, Mackinac (pronounced MACK-i-naw) Island lies untouched by recent decades. Victorian-era houses line the downtown streets, and the only highway around the island is teeming with tourists on bicycles. More than a dozen fudge shops inhabit the island, which make for good stops after exploring caves and old army forts. This quaint island, measuring only 3.8 square miles, is a popular summer getaway and an unforgettable weekend destination.

For more than a thousand years, the city of Santiago de Compostela, Spain, has welcomed weary pilgrims with open arms.
