You can do the average things on any vacation, or you can look around for something a bit different whether you are going alone, with a partner, or with your family. Vacation spots like amusement parks are great and make for a memorable vacation, but you may have had enough of that and want to seek out something different. You may even want to take a vacation that will be a lot of fun but that may also save you money. There are many organized walking tours out there that you can take, or you can come up with your own.

Walking tours often include sightseeing on foot, as the term would suggest. These are not your typical walks through any city or town. Some of these are taken through some of the world's most famous places, and others are going through things that you have never heard of and may never see unless you take some of these walking tours. Not only will you see amazing things, you can get some well needed exercise while you are on vacation without overdoing it. It is more relaxing than you think. A long walk will seem short when you are viewing things that stir the imagination and fulfill a sense of adventure.

If you want to see some of the best sights in the world, perhaps some of the top natural and man made wonders of the world, you should see if you can find walking tours to see them. Did you know you can climb the Sydney Harbour bridge in Australia? It's not for the faint at heart, but if you do it, you can see a view most others can only see in photographs. Sydney, like many other international cities, has walking tours of many attractions that people come from all over the world to see.

You can find walking tours in cities that have a hidden past. Some cities have secrets that are not well-known, but you can know them through these tours. There is an underground city in Seattle that use to be Seattle proper. Because the city was built so low, it often flooded. The city was literally built up over the old city, and some of that old city remains. How much of that you can see today depends on the condition of this area, but you can certainly inquire about walking tours of this unique city.

There are certainly walking tour opportunities in most cities or even parks or other rural areas. However, that does not mean you have to limit yourself to what you see through an online travel site. You can see what you can find out about any city or area and then come up with your own walking tours. Find a hotel near where you want to go, and build your own vacation from the ground up. You can most definitely have a fun and unique vacation experience this way. You can also find other ideas from folks who have come up with their own experiences by reading their online postings and travel blogs.
