Destinations / North America

The winter fun didn’t end with Christmas at SkyPark at Santa’s Village in the San Bernardino mountains, and family travelers can enjoy an array of winter delights through April 13. Activities include Snow Quest Scavenger Hunt, ice skating, Skate Party Saturdays, winter-themed entertainment and activities, food specials, shopping, and more.

 

During the Snow Quest Scavenger Hunt, participants help Princess Snowfall find lost magic snow crystals. If guests complete the quest, a special surprise awaits. Pick up a game card in the Admissions building. Silver Bells Arena, the mountain’s exclusive skate rink, hosts weekly themed skate parties every Saturday, as well as open skates on Friday and Sunday. The monorail track around Santa’s Village has been repurposed into a ride with a small bicycle pedal car to race around the course while suspended above the village.

 

Find seasonal food and beverage specials at Billy’s BBQ, Gingerbread House Bakery & Sweet Shoppe, and Kringle’s Coffee & Gifts.

 

Admission is included with a Day Pass or Annual Pass, and includes access to everyday park activities, bike park trails, entertainment, parades and live music. Winter hours (all weather permitting) are:

Friday: 10 a.m.–5 p.m.

Saturday: 10 a.m.–5 p.m.

Sunday: 10 a.m.–4 p.m.

3 Hotels Around the World Where You Can Cook Locally

The need for human connection with locals when traveling is growing in popularity among younger generations. Food has become one of the most authentic and powerful ways to help create these connections, and many hotels around the world offer unique experiences to help turn this into a reality.

Best of Both Worlds

Enjoy the best of both worlds when you fly with TAP Air Portugal thanks to the Portugal Stopover program. With the program, TAP passengers, whether traveling for business, leisure or both, can stop in Portugal for up to 10 days at no additional airfare on the way to their final destination. What does this mean for travelers wishing to explore by both land and sea? It means after flying to Portugal with TAP and experiencing the country in an entirely new way, travelers can then embark on scenic river and ocean cruises from  Portugal’s port cities, or fly with TAP to another European destination.
