Riding in an open-air (during most seasons), stucco-covered trolley, on the “Best of Burque” tour you’ll visit several of the city’s top destinations as well as popular neighborhoods. On themed tours, visit “Breaking Bad” filming locations, holiday lights, and the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta.

Departing from Old Town, this tour takes you to more than 20 Breaking Bad filming locations. Cast members and extras from the TV show lead the tours, sharing their insider knowledge of the set. The RV is tricked out with a mock-meth-cooking set and Hector Salamanca’s bell. The interactive tour shows clips from the TV show to remind riders of the scenes...

This family-owned motel’s claim to fame was its appearance on Breaking Bad. 

This spot gives a solid car wash and wax; however, it’s most famous as a filming location for Breaking Bad. You can find show paraphernalia in the gift shop, right next to the air fresheners.

The production of Breaking Bad filmed frequent exterior scenes and occasional interior scenes (some were also shot on a studio set) at this brick home in the North East Heights. A real-life couple lent their home to the production, so grab a photo opp quietly.

Part native, part cultivated, Crane Point Hammock is 63 acres of tropical hardwood hammock in the heart of Marathon. Purchased by Francis and Mary Crane in 1949, they added flowering tropical plants and orchids to the hammock. Preserved from development in 1989 by the Florida Keys Land Trust, it is the largest tropical hammock in the Middle Keys. The Museum...

On a stretch of coast famous for its attractive fishing villages, little whitewashed Findhorn is one of the prettiest. The setting is perfect to: it overlooks a tranquil bay of bobbing yachts while a broad five-mile long stretch of sandy beach and dunes stretch out to the east. It’s a perfect place for a hike and, since it’s often breezy,...

Hidden and out of the way, Wat Hua Krabeu is run by a rather eccentric abbott who first came to attention when he turned a corner of his temple into a resting spot for old Mercedes. Many felt that all the luxury cars violated a Buddhist tenet against material possession, but the abbott claimed that the autos were just in need...

If I told you that Rose O’Neill (1874-1944) gained fame as the creator of the Kewpie, you might be inclined to dismiss her as a frivolous artist (I know I did). But O’Neill created much more than the merchandising boom that made her wealthy, first as Puck magazine’s first female staff artist and later with her own shows of what...

Sure, Branson’s other museums make for fun or educational diversions, but if you want to learn about the Ozarks from one of the most eclectic collections I’ve ever seen, the Ralph Foster Museum is at the top of my list. Even better, it’s much cheaper than the other private collections It’s named after Ralph Foster (1893-1984), a radio pioneer who...

Silver Dollar City is the theme park for people who are allergic to theme parks. A re-creation of an 1880s Ozarks town, it’s nestled in a lovely wooded setting, with staff dressed in period costumes, more than 100 craftsmen demonstrating their skills, about 60 specialty shops selling crafts and accessories, more than 40 live shows daily ranging from bluegrass and...

If you played with it, you can probably find it at the World’s Largest Toy Museum. Its two buildings are a jumble of almost 2 million toys from the 1800s to more recent pop culture, including model cars, pedal cars, model airplanes, train sets, tin toys, pull toys, dolls, action figures, board games, Pez dispensers, kaleidoscopes, Lincoln Logs, Star Wars...

You’ll be greeted by the ebullient Brendan Harris or one of his equally friendly baristas if you pause on your trip across Brisbane’s pedestrian-and-cyclist-only Goodwill Bridge. This unusual “cafe” is a coffee cart that serves up scrumptious home-made cakes (made by Brendan’s wife Kelly), muffins, ice-creams and more, as well as a caffeine hit or a cold drink. There’s hot...

While not the oldest brewery in town, Magic Hat Brewery was one of the first that really put Burlington on the map for craft brews.  A stop by the South Burlington brewery is a great way to taste their wide variety of beers – in addition to their popular and widely available #9 beer (a pale ale with an apricot...

The semi-fascinating gravity house lures budding scientists. This vortex, much like those in Oregon and Santa Cruz, was founded in 1949. Stand on the walls. Notice how your five-year old suddenly looks taller than you. See water flow uphill, roll balls out a window and marvel as they come rolling back to you. Note that many people experience vertigo in...

Though there is plenty of memorabilia of times gone by, the main attraction here is the Bigfoot collection. Old Yeti is rumored to frequent these mountains, and this museum houses the largest collection of memorabilia in the state.

Originally the Australian Institute of Anatomy, the Art Deco style building dates...

Bloomfield is one of the main towns in Prince Edward County. If you drive the Loyalist Parkway (Route 33) through The County, you’ll be driving right down Main Street in Bloomfield. But, Bloomfield is small, so it’s kind of easy to drive right through unless you’re looking for it. Fortunately, there are some interesting shops and restaurants to keep an...

The Hideout is a very special place, transformative in the physical and metaphysical sense. During the summer everyone takes it outside, and the small alley-like street turns into a jamfest. Inside, decorative lights create a cozy atmostphere, lending good vibes to this truly midwestern hideout, tucked between 90/94 and the Chicago River. You’d never end up here if you weren’t...
