Big Bear Valley is well known for its winter sports fun. But after the snow melts and the skiers flee the area, a whole new adventure awaits you.

During the summer months, the ski resorts offer more adventures like scenic chairlift rides, slides, and hiking trails.

The valley and mountains around it are full of hiking and biking trails waiting to be explored. Many trails start near the “Big Bear Discovery Center”.

Kom Ombo, Egypt

مصر - معبد كوم أمبوكانت مدينة كوم أمبو محطة على طول رحلتي النيلية التي استمرت أربعة أيام.

في مارس من عام 2023، قررت أنا وزوجتي الشروع في رحلتنا التي طال انتظارها عبر مصر.

بعد جولة مزدحمة لمدة ثلاثة أيام في القاهرة والجيزة، طِرنا على متن مصر للطيران إلى الأقصر، وتم نقلنا بسرعة إلى سفينة الرحلات الخاصة بنا، شتايجنبرجر مينيرفا، وسجلنا الدخول إلى جناحنا الرائع.

تبدأ الرحلة البحرية التي تستغرق أربعة أيام من الأقصر وتصعد نهر النيل إلى أسوان، وتتوقف في عدة موانئ على طول الطريق.

بعد يومين في الأقصر وتوقف في إدفو، أنهينا اليوم في كوم أمبو لزيارة المعبد المزدوج الفريد.

Pirates Dinner Adventure

null

We started by posing for a photo op behind the helm of a ship. You can pick some props from a basket – mainly different style captain and pirate hats - and be as serious or as silly as you like. You get to see the result at your table and decide whether to buy it – no pressure. The main reception hall is large and it has 2 bars and a gift shop. While you wait, you are served appetizers (included in the admission price). 

Once inside, you will come face to face with a huge replica of an 18th-century Spanish galleon anchored in a 250,000-gallon indoor lagoon. The seats are arranged stadium-style around this stage, so everyone can have a good view of the action.

Jordan - The Desert Kingdom

nullJordan, throughout history was a crossroad between east and west. Ancient roads through the desert connected civilizations like the Greeks, Nabataeans, Romans and more recent states like the Umayyads and the Ottomans.

In modern days, Jordan still strives to connect western style economy and culture to more traditional Arab and Muslim values. The result is an eclectic melding of cultures that makes this desert kingdom unique in the world. 

Another great attraction for visitors is the political stability in Jordan. The Kingdom is one of the few Arab states that remain peaceful and inviting. Another big attraction is the temperate weather. It is not as warm as the Gulf States and not as cold as most of Europe.
