Planning an ultimate Vacation? If you’re tired of the traditional trips to the beach and looking for something new and exciting, there is nothing quite like a trip to Pigeon Forge. Experience the ultimate feel of relaxation with all the activities they offer.

This incredible getaway spot will leave you breathless and rejuvenated. All the adventure and excitement you can imagine is packed into one spot that is guaranteed to be the perfect getaway for your family and is a bit more budget friendly than a Caribbean vacation.

The Five Rivers Adventures gives you an up close and breathtaking view of the spectacular scenery. It’s a perfect addition to your schedule, and the kids will love it. This tour guided trip also includes a picnic lunch. Keep in mind that this activity is seasonal and opens during the month of March up to the month of October only.

Another famous activity is Rafting in the Smokies. Enjoy the Rocky Top Outfitters with a fully stocked fly and tackle shop, featuring modern and high-quality spin and fly fishing equipments.

The Rocky Top Outfitters have professional guides that you can hire during the season. Your kids will love the thrill of rafting across the river through a spray of white water; kids always seem to like getting wet.

After white-water rafting, you might be looking for something more relaxing. Attending a show is the perfect way. And The Louise Mandrell show just may be the one. Louise Mandrell is a one woman band that can performs multiple shows. She plays everything from the fiddle drums to the base and throws in dance routines that would even make an athlete gasp for breath.

Another show is the Comedy Barn. A family-friendly show, no need for the kids to have earmuffs and even the youngest should enjoy this kind of show. There is nothing quite like clean country comedy and a night full of laughter.

While there, why not toss in a little education. By visiting the famous Tennessee Museum of Aviation which is located in the parkway of Pigeon Forge.

You can take a leisurely stroll through the premises, and observe the impressive and extensive collection of aviation memorabilia. This part of Pigeon Forge gives honor to some known Tennesseans who have contributed a lot in the field of aerospace and aviation.

Straight off the wire from Hot-Wire here’s a great family travel deal.

You can get an all-inclusive Grand Oasis Cancun beach resort from a low $379* per person, flight included.

Kids stay, play and eat at no extra charge. Did you notice the * after the price along with the word “from”? That tells you that the price shown is a bare minimum.

Most times you have to go upgrade a bit to get what you want. You wouldn’t be sleeping on the veranda but you won’t be in a penthouse suite either.

One more thing that gets me about these type of buy now advertisements is the announcement that kids stay free.

In my travels I’ve not come across a hotel or resort where the kids had to pay extra. Maybe I’ve just dodged those places or have been lucky.

At any rate, this offer is exclusive to Cheapcaribbean.com so surf on over to their site and check it out.

The greatest part about these inclusive offers is that kids eat free. Whether you have one child or five, free food for them is a bonus. And with this deal from CheapCaribbean alcohol is included, Woo-hoo!

Grand Oasis Cancun is a pyramid type structure which gives everyone a spectacular view of the sea. It’s located in the center of the Hotel Zone of Cancun, directly on the beach.

You’ll get your fill of shopping, and there are plenty bars and restaurants. The Grand Oasis is only 12 miles from the Cancun International Airport which is about a 25 minute ride and 20 minutes from downtown Cancun.

This is a great venue for water sports, especially the complimentary kayaks, paddleboats and surfboards. They even offer complimentary green fees if you want to golf.

Want to burn more calories?

A tennis court is available with available instruction, if there’s an instructor free; plus rental equipment and lights for night play are available at an additional charge.

OK, this place sounds awesome!!! I could be here all day describing the rest of the amenities so in the interest of brevity I’ll get right to it.

There’s a multipurpose field, gymnasium, pool, entertainment provided by the hotel staff, live shows, free parking and taxes and gratuities are included. Wow, that’s a bunch!!
